The Mahatmas and a "Liberal" Church

Dear Sufilight,


Thanks.

Perhaps Pedro Oliveira or some other Liberal Catholic
priest could comment this paragraph you quote
from the "Mahatma Letters" ?...

"I will point out the greatest, the chief cause of nearly two-thirds of the
evils that pursue humanity ever since it became a power.  It is the
sacerdotal cast the priesthood and the churches.  It is those illusions that
man looks upon as sacred that he has to search out the source of the
multitude of evils which is the great curse of humanity and that almost
overwhelms mankind.  Ignorance created Gods, and cunning took advantage of
the opportunity." (Letter 10 in the Non-chronological editions)

Best regards,  Carlos.

Hallo,


My views are:

John, I guess this is the place...
http://www.timestar.org/e-mail.htm

I did like these words:
There is one thought which specially brings a doubt to my mind,
especially when I have long since come to realize the truth contained in the
following quotation from one of the Mahatma letters:--

"I will point out the greatest, the chief cause of nearly two-thirds of the
evils that pursue humanity ever since it became a power. It is the
sacerdotal cast the priesthood and the churches. It is those illusions that
man looks upon as sacred that he has to search out the source of the
multitude of evils which is the great curse of humanity and that almost
overwhelms mankind. Ignorance created Gods, and cunning took advantage of
the opportunity."

It is incomprehensible to me how Dr. Bezants pronouncement that the power
of the World Teacher manifests in the L. C. C. with the Herald of the Star
filled with pictures of Priests and clergy, it is incomprehensible how one
can harmonize the two thoughts, especially in view of the fact that H. P.
B's and hundreds of quotations from letters of the masters and also the
early writings of Mr. Leadbeter condemned the vary teachings of the
Christian church as false and misleading, which now are apparently found to
be true.

Having studied the writings of Dr. Besant, Leadbeter, H. P. B. and The
Mahatmas and Sinnett, I must admit that I am completely unable to make the
same harmonize with the more recent teachings of our leaders, especially in
view of their references to the L. C. C. and the apparent building or hoping
to build in the world sacerdotal organization or organizations that have
within themselves the seed for greater misery and power than is possible at
the present time under Christian Theology.
