Brigitte's Interpretations??

Brigitte,

I posted a chart at:
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepootonliattobm.htm
trying to illustrate the 4 step process of discovery
as applied to your interpretation of the Ooton Liatto
Case.

Below I give four more charts showing other
encounters. Brigitte, what are your conclusions
considering these cases? 

MORYA COMES ON HORSEBACK TO BOMBAY IN JULY, 1879 TO
VISIT OLCOTT
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepmorya79bm.htm

MORYA COMES TO BOMBAY ON AUGUST 4, 1880
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepmorya80bm.htm

OLCOTT'S ACCOUNT OF MEETING A MASTER AT THE GOLDEN
TEMPLE IN AMRITSAR ON OCTOBER 26, 1880
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepgoldtem80bm.htm

OLCOTT'S ACCOUNT OF MEETING MORYA IN CEYLON 
IN SEPT. 1881
http://www.blavatskyarchives.com/chart4stepmorya81bm.htm

In each of the 4 cases ABOVE (see web page for each
case) which hypothesis do you prefer for each case?

The hypotheses are as follows:

1. Olcott perhaps was simply lying and this whole
experience never actually happened.
2. Olcott was perhaps duped by a confederate hired by
Blavatsky to personate a Master.
3. Olcott was perhaps hypnotized by Blavatsky to see
this "imaginary" adept.
4. Olcott was perhaps under the influence of drugs & 
hallucinated the whole experience.
5. Olcott perhaps met a real physical man who was an
adept.

Steve Stubbs has been quite helpful and forthcoming in
giving his views about Olcott's encounters. He
believes Hypothesis 5 is the best explanation. See his
post at:

Brigitte, what is your best explanation for each of
these cases? Steve's explanation seems quite sensible
to me, don't you agree?

at their right value; and unless a judge compares
notes and hears both sides he can hardly come to a
correct decision."
