Carl, Carlos, Friends,
 
Why then would Blavatsky accept the honorariums from masonic orders? What would be her reasons? Surely, if she did not believe in ritualistic organizations she would have returned the honors with thanks? Or the Masters would have urged her to? Any ideas?

Carl,

Thanks. 

So there is NOTHING about HPB being an active member of any ritualistic organizations in the 19 century. (See below). Excellent, my brother. Facts are facts and this absence of evidences is a FACT, for sure. 

As to her 'honorary membership' -- take a look at the facsimile copy of HPB's masonic "Adoption" diploma in "HPB Speaks". That is honorary, no doubt. 

Note that HPB denounced in most vehement terms the "ceremonial magic" as a practice for the 19th century. 

She probably could smelll the uselessness, nay, the harmfulness of it in the Aquarius Age... 

Regards, Carlos.
