Firstly, thank you Alan for posting your comments.  May one focus
on one particular point you mention (as shown above):

Your "associate" is convincingly mistaken:-).  The Opposition
continues to do a very good job in befuddling the student's mind
into swaying this way and that about HPB and the Masters.

Maybe your "associate" is equally convinced that the Letters are
not, in the majority of cases, precipitated? Or that HPB - while
in London, for example - wrote letters in blue or red ink (KH & M
respectively) herself sending them by post to India, getting them
posted back to London via some accomplace or other to arrive back
before sunrise the same day for Mr Sinnet's perusal! And pigs, as
they say, will fly!:-).

If HPB *did* write the Letter's then she was a fraud and liar,
for *she* claimed that she did *not* write them.  One would hope
that anyone who believes HPB was/is a fraud and a liar does not
go by the title of "theosophist".

Ask your "associate" to get a pass to visit the British Museum
(it can be arranged) where the Mahatma Letter's are currently
stored.  Ask him to examine the way in which the ink is permeated
*into* the paper, and how the colour of the "ink" changes.  Ask
him to observe the dozens of *individual* "pen" strokes which go
to form each and every letter, of each and every sentence, on
each and every page and how these brush strokes move left or
right, up or down, differently even within the same sentence.
Ask him to explain how the "ink" itself, after over a century,
remains as unfaded and as bright as the day it was
manufactured...............then ask him to reconsider the absurd
proposition that the Letter's signed by KH or M to APS were
written by HPB.

In all events, please pass my kindest regards to your
"associate".

PB
