Theos-Talk Archives (November 2006 Message tt00638)

Friends, 

Daniel quotes John Coats: 

" 'The percentage of members, who have not as yet  ever read any books by H.P. Blavatsky is  regrettably high.' The Theosophist, Feb., 1975"

Coats words are still true today, as long as the Adyar TS is concerned. 

Leadbeater/Besant are falling, J. Krishnamurti and Bailey perhaps on the rise (Bailey in some areas only); HPB is at the same level or rising very slowly (in the Adyar TS.)

This is what I can report, from my fields of observation. 

(Yet, even a superficial contact with the basic theosophical concepts will help much -- and prepare for a deeper view of Theosophy in people's next lives. For -- everything has to have a start in some lifetime...)   

Coats was an open mind. 


Carlos.
