Theos-Talk Archives (October 2004 Message tt00029)

Daniel, one should consider that Miss Cleather a lay chela 
at probation level - and the Inner Group of the ES was of 
course such one, don't? - obviously was not informed by HPB 
about higher occult matters as to the question of 
successorship, what a messenger is and how a chela is 
trained to recognize him (in the quarrel about Alan Donant's 
Conger pamphlet about successorship after de Purucker this 
information that some of the ES student were set aside for 
this reason turned out. We have the same procedere in the 
eastern schools of the gelukpas.

I do not say that Cleather did not honestly say what seemed 
to her to be the truth, but she was unable to accept that 
there was higher knowledge to which she had no access. All 
what the text you have linked gives is the opinion of Miss 
Cleather, a proof of her non-knowledge, nothing more. The 
statements of Miss Cleather could likewise be drawn to any 
other topic wiht the same result.
At HPB's London time the doctrine of the inner and outer 
rounds was too high to make it public and to the general 
audience - including the lower three lay degrees IG, ES, 
LOL - only generalized information was given. Ininstructed 
persons took these generalized information - blinds - as a 
literally truth and Sinnett, Leadbeater and Farthing made a 
blind beleif dogma out of it without understanding of the 
inner meaning.
