Re: Mussolini and Annie Besant

I really found some informations here and there, that are difficult 
to build up a conclusion without knowing the truth about it. Did 
Geoffrey Hodson made any description about Hitler's aura? For sure 
if so such material is not availeable. 

I think the important fact inspite to find some shadows here and 
there are the objects that the T.S. stand for. And there are some 
clear misunderstanding. When I read the biography of John Coalts he 
describes the terror they have lived in London during the second 
World war, also he express his great admiration to Arundale. 

Anyway read the below:

"In Germany, soon after Hitler seized power, the liberal political 
parties became illegal. So did Theosophy, four years later. In the 
meantime, The Theosophist monthly had published Jinarajadasa's 
denunciation of persecution of Jews; but also praise by the 1934-
1945 President George Arundale of Hitler; and an enthusiastic 
paranormal description by A non-German theosophist' [G. Hodson?] of 
the 'purity' of the Führer's beautiful aura.13)"

13) The Theosophist, May 1936, 242. Nazi propaganda posters also 
often depicted Hitler with an aura around his head; Albrecht W. 
Thöne, Das Licht der Arier. Licht-, Feuer- und Dunkelsymbolik des 
Nationalsozialismus. München: Minerva, 1979, 35.
