Theos-Talk Archives (February 2008 Message tt00169)

Who said anything about unbrotherly Morten?  The Great White Brotherhood will continue to function for humanity whether humanity is aware of it or not, and I would say that in 99.99percent humanity is not aware.  As far as I knew the White Lodge works with and through the Lords of Karma and their emissiaries, to the point where they cannot interfere even with the Shadow brothers.  
   
  Their are many paths Morten, the path of the mystic is entirely different to the gnani path, but one doesn't surpass the other, the goal is the same.  K's pathless path is through inner awareness leading to self expansion.  It is the solitary path but the end result is the same.
  Unless I have misunderstood the teachings.

My views are:

So now we have a Theosophist(?) calling the FGreat White Lodge unbrotherly?
What is next?

The Great Withe Lodge is subject to the Law of Karma like all in the universe.
Saying that the Great Withe Lodge is unbrotherly will not make you more wise than its members are.
I will recommend, that you think about this.

The Great Withe Lodge is no ordinary group or organisation working together. They are on a level
of consciousness far beyond ordinary human comprehension. They are organised through real Altruism. 
And Altruism is so often misunderstood by beginner theosophists as being emotional arousements.
Saying that those who are superior to you in compassion are not compassionate will not make their compassion go away. (Of course some of you might be way beyond the level of the Dyhan Chohan's, but I will have to confirm the truth about this first.)

The Great Withe Lodge is of course not without faults.
But saying, if you do that, - that you can walk in the PathlessLand of J. Krishnamurti without running into the members of the Great White Lodge is the same as endorsing the Pratyeka Buddhist pathless path. And H. P. Blavatsky never agreed upon following this path, because it is not a real spiritual path. That is also my own view. Sooner or later one will have to learn the lesson of working together with other people. The Law of Karma is a real issue.

The Pratyeka Buddhist's do not understand the difference between good and evil, on various levels of consciousness, and they have a tendency to work like the uncompassionate Dugpa's.

Being truely compassionate is a huge lesson in life.

But, these are just my views.

It has value no for people who are to be tested by
their dugpa's, only after they went through the
testing they have value. So before you even get a
glimpse of what the White Brotherhood is about, you
are already being tested. They only support their own
kind, which sounds not very brotherhoodlylike btw...
