Farthing Fights a Fog

Friends, 
 

"Denial is more than a river in Egypt", as Mark Twain wrote.

 

After his important Manifesto issued ten years ago in 1996, Geoffrey 
Farthing wrote a Supplement the following year,  in which he had to 
admit: 

"KEEPING UP THE PRESSURE
There have been various attempts in the past to reform the Society 
along Blavatsky/Master lines but so powerful has been the 
prevailing 'cloud of glamour' overshadowing the whole Adyar Society 
(with perhaps a few disregarded pin-holes of light) that members not 
only have not seen the case that was being made but deliberately did 
not want to. Such attempts have been regarded as a particular 
personal quirk of whoever has at the time been trying to penetrate 
the fog. The matter, however, is not a personal one, it has to do 
with a world event of the utmost importance to humanity as a whole. 
This has just not being appreciated. People have preferred their 
entrenched beliefs."

 

No "fog", glamour or denial can be eternal, though.  To every 
night,  a new morning succeeds.
