Alice Bailey is a Problem! And so Leadbeatter...

I've been reading the whole discussion and couldn't find any 
reference to Alice Ceather's book "The Pseudo-Occultism of Alice 
Bailey" 
http://members.aol.com/uniwldarts/uniworld.artisans.guild/HPBvsAB.html

I'm sorry if someone had cited it, i didn't see.
I think this book should be taken on account, since Alice Cleather 
was one of the memebers of the Inner Group, and was the responsible 
to send written material to Judge, in the US.
The thing is Leadbeatter wasn't accepted by HPB in her group... she 
new that he had already failed... leadbeatter wasn't even a member of 
the ES. By the time HPB died he was just a failure in the path, a 
psychic with a big ego and a good retoric. Besan't was never ment to 
be HPB sucessor. Leadbeatter was a cunning man, avid for power and 
recognition. He turned krishnamurti away from the path with his "new 
Christ" talk. He made the boy disregard the masters, averse to any 
occult matter. We have already discussed leadbeatter's morality. 
G.R.S Mead, a member of the inner group and private secretary of HPB 
was in court, for Leadbeatter os expeled from the TS. Mead, and 
Keithley were averse to Leadbeatter. Alice Cleather 
wrote "H.P.Blavatsky, the great Breatyal", where great part of the 
text is about the leadbeatter probleml. The vast majority of the 12 
members of the Inner Group abandoned the TS (with an exception to 
Besant, cought in Leadbeatter's trap) saying it is posioned, and 
going to the wrong way...
Should we disregard the opinion of 3 or more members of the inner 
group about this man? Should we blind ourselves to all he has done? 
and all the trickery? Following him so blindly is something done by 
cults, not by intelligent people, the ones that should be part of the 
TS.
Leadbeatter wrote about the masters, had he the right to do it? He 
betrayed the masters. It is a lack of respect doing what he has done, 
using their names, and occult information to spred to the public. One 
must not play with occultism, and leadbeatter, having failed in the 
quest, was eager to prove he was still a 'chosen one' and used his 
books to sell his own image.
Due to leadbeatter unprepared people and willing to contact received 
false things by fake spirits, and disrespectfull movements such as 
I'AM and GWB were created around the world. Leadbeatter treated 
occult matters as if it was something to be sell in magazine stores 
and stuff.. , and opened the life of the masters to anyone.
He must not be trusted.

Alice Bailey had the same fate... you say she was in contact with 
DK... how much of this is true, how much of her writing did really 
came from him? Her first books are clear and good and deep... 
Suddenly she starts to write a great quantity of books 'correcting' 
HPB, and starts to 'open her mouth' and say the masters are 
supporting her. This is not an attitude of a serious disciple. Her 
later books all came from her own imaginagion and from cunning 
spirits wich surounded her. She got proud about her contact, she said 
too much... she lost the contact. But still the door was open, and 
counterfeiting spirits got the chance to do what they like to do, 
deceive... falsificate, make the person think she is something 
special, and get the person to fall into a trap. All the latter work 
of alice bailey is a bunch of prolix nonsense. 
The masters don't care for personalities, they care for the work to 
be done. Once the person is not good anymore they leave her... This 
is very clear in the Mahatma letters, and in one letter Master K.H 
alerts the person of the danger of the falsities many spirits 
can 'teach' and many people write 'inspired books' which in reality 
are a big problem.
Plus.. Alice Bailey wrote and auto-biography... Why? do we see real 
masters writing about themselves? Writing "see how I am good, se why 
you have to believe me and follow me". This is a tricks of the ego... 
If I have to chose between the opinion of some of Blavatsky's inner 
pupils and these persons. I'll always stay with HPB...
