Re: TS Election: Timeline

Has Radha tried to promote Krishnamurti's teaching harder in the TS in
last 3-4 years ? One thought today came in the mind just as
possibility. Here is that thought. Whether this theory is correct or
not we will know if we get correct information about whether Radha
promoted harder K's teaching in last few years.
Theory is this-
Radha enjoyed good support from General Secretaries and others for
many years. 
In last 3-4 years she tried harder to promote K's teaching in the TS.
Other officers and General Secretaries did not like that, and they
found her speech as vague as K's speeches were. Because of this they
thought that her brain was not working properly. And so they supported
John Algeo. In this election Jon Algeo has got many more nominations
than Radha.

This is one possibility which requires some research.
