Carlos
Are you aware that your tone comes across as arrogance par excellence!

 I see a pattern in you that consists in criticizing the ULT. 
 
 After you defended (if I saw it right)  ritualism and ritualistic groups which seem to promote dire kundalini experiences , that could be hardly surprising. 
 Tell me if I misunderstood your position. I would not like to be unfair in that. 
 
 Perhaps you would like to specialize yourself in criticizing the ULT. Feel free to do that.  The followers of "Bishop" Wedgwood and "Bishop" Leadbeater might be happy with you  -- no problem.  
 
 Yet --  who preserved the teachings of HPB and Judge,  along with Pasadena TS, Point Loma groups, Edmonton Theosophical Society? The ULT did, along with them, and with many an Adyar student; and  with support, in most important instances, from Adyar leaders.  
 
 In the second half of the 20th century, the HPB's Collected Writings, the books by G. Barborka and Sven Eek are among the many major examples of this cooperation between Adyar and other theosophical groups. This was a major historical fact which I do not forget.  
 
 In the first part of 20th century, however, the ULT, the Pasadena TS and Point Loma groups played a key role in preserving the teachings and their Spirit. As they do now. And I don't forget that either.  
 
 No ritualistic organization did that.  It was a task for Theosophists, regardless of their organizations.  And it was well done.    
 
 Regards,   Carlos.
