Re: Theos-World : News from Theosophical Society in America

Thanks. I am planning to post another message on the transparency issue.
Looks like the view from the top is that the lowly ordinary members need to
be fed with info favorable to the policies and politics of the top. I heard
that there is a lot of e-mail exchanges among leaders around the world and I
have not seen any of them talking to any of us.

They already have the control of the mailing
list, which they have used for electioneering and with a lot of at-large
members, it is very convenient and easy to keep them in the dark and
influence the election for the good the TS, in their opinion.  Let us wait
and see what happens.
