On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday Radha was here in Pune. Book taken for
study was Freedom from the Known by J. Krishnamurti. I could easily
see lack of interest among the members of TS about this book. Out of
hundred lodge members only 7-8 members had come, and they had to come
because they were given responsibility of making arrangements. I also
attended most of the sessions. 
I attended it because I wanted to see what answers she would give to
the objections which I raise about Krishnamurti. I asked number of
questions to Radha to show that Krishnamurti's speeches and Theosophy
are not compatible. 
One of her answer was we are trying to know what author has to say
(without thinking about whether he is right or wrong)
She could not and did not justify Krishnamurti's views.
It is unclear why she took K's book for study when his views can not
be justified. Later many members said I was right. K's views are not
for us. 
It appears that Radha's popularity has gone down because she it trying
to promote K's teachings.
