You're missing the entire point Daniel; I didn't say she forged the letters,
I simply said that in my view they are entirely her work. This clearly
didn't mean she sat down at a desk with pen and paper and carefully wrote
them out. She was a very advanced psychic, there's a lot of ways she could
have produced them.

Distance and time, are simply no block to the psychic facilities. But I
forgot, you are one of those who doesn't really believe in them.

Well Daniel, one very good reason might be because we know that Yelena
Blavatskaya was a real person, while "K.H." and/or "M" might just as easily
be her creations as their letters were. Maybe she wanted to keep herself one
stage removed from being an authority and so presented herself as simply a
representative of two adepts who were simply her alter egos. It is my
opinion that she did this as a blind to keep the public attention away from
real adepts who were far less "magical-mystical" but who would have been
endangered by too much public attention (or any at all). That, at least, is
my considered opinion, you apparently do not feel it is a permissible opinion.

Oh I'm sure you will! The Gods know that the supply of citations is your forte.

you believe in her writing, you'd know how simple that is for a really
advanced psychic. The trouble is you only believe in the intellectual and
religious side of Blavatsky's life and are terrified of her psychic side. Or
so it seems to me.
