More gossips and fixation?

Daniel,


Your fixation about FRAUDS may be ON again.

A good remedy for that would be --  Theosophy, or Cicero's Ethics, or the Tao Te King, or simply walking and breathing... 


Best regards,  Carlos.

Assunto:Theos-World Issue brought up by HPB has nothing to do with Hodgson/Harrison controversy

> Carlos brings up the Hodgson/Harrison issue in
> relationship to what HPB herself wrote about
> the Mahatma Letters in the pages of LUCIFER.
> 
> As far as I can tell, the issue brought up by
> HPB in the following words has little if any thing
> to do with the Hodgson/Harrison controversies concerning

> 
> First HPB's key words:
> 
> "...We have been asked by a correspondent why he should not 'be
> free to suspect some of the so-called 'precipitated' letters as 
> being forgeries,' giving as his reason for it that while some of them
> bear the stamp of (to him) undeniable genuineness, others seem from
> their contents and style, to be imitations...."
> 
> Hodgson's contention was that the Mahatmas did NOT exist ... period 
> [were ficitional in other words]...and that HPB and Damodar had 
> written the letters and pretended that they emanated from such 
> Masters.
> 
> The contention given by HPB's correspondent is totally different.
> The existence of the Mahatmas is not in question.
> 
> It would appear that HPB's correspondent believed in the reality of

> occult letters from the Masters were undeniablely genuine, OTHERS 
> apparently from the same source - seemed based on their CONTENTS and 
> style - to be imitations, that is phoney....(I use Jake's word here.)

> 
> Therefore, I believe HPB's words on this subject are very much

> HPB in the article in LUCIFER:
> 
> "For all that the recipient of 'occult' letters can possibly know, 
> and on the simple grounds of probability and common honesty, the 
> unseen correspondent [Koot Hoomi] who would tolerate one single 
> fraudulent line in his name, would wink at an unlimited repetition 
> of the deception."
> 
> Yet Jake is contending (in effect) that phoney KH letters were in 
> existence during HPB's life time, available in her esoteric school, 
> and that two of her most trusted disciples W.Q. Judge and Julia 
> Keightley believed in these phoney letters and even published 
> portions in THE PATH (for the public to read! this while HPB was 
> still alive!!) and in an E.S. Instruction full of HPB's own inner 
> group teachings and issued after 1891.
> 
> Food for thought...
