Eldon, you have said this many times over
the years. So far, you have never reconciled your views
to HPB's comment that "Each principle is on a different
plane." (Inner Group Teachings p 19). Is HPB wrong?

Eldon, please tell me where you get this stuff. I
thought HPB says that life is everywhere. G de P (whom you
have studied a lot more than I have) says that every single
geometric point in space is a living consciousness-center
or Monad. Why do you persist in saying that life/existence
must be confined to certain regions? Can you give me a
quote?
