"Do gossips help anyone?"

Friends, 

Daniel has had some difficulty, it seems,  in realizing three things: 

1) That HPB's Theosophy itself is more important than the differences in interpretations or political differences among groups which recognize the importance of HPB/Masters's Theosophy. 

2) That since the 1950s a few decades have passed, and Pasadena TS, Edmonton TS, the ULT and other Blavatsky groups are much more cooperative and respectful among them. 


3) That we should be able to look to the future in a constructive way, and to recognize, perhaps,  that the main illusions now preventing  the theosophical movement from being more active and creative are the Annie Besant/ Leadbeater illusions, which still circulate and misguide most of theosophists all over the world. 

Regards,   Carlos.
