How can someone who's supposed to be so astute make a blanket statement like
that? To begin, it would be way too easy to find "Aryan Asiatics" who are
clearly 'unspiritual' and a "white conqueror" who is weak in "physical
intellectuality."
These kind of statements are prime for misinterpretation. If I were
anything other than a "Aryan Asiatic" or a "white conqueror," I'd think
Theosophists were a bunch of bedlamites. (!) And dangerous.
Either APS misreckoned while transcribing or ML needs to come down from the
mountain for awhile - breathing too much rarefied air can make you woozy.
What's a "white conqueror" anyway?
