For a very long time, at the San Antonio Lodge we had nothing but public
meetings. In many of them, various lecturers, many of whom did not know the
official Theosophy did speak. We invited them to speak because most of them
did subscribe to the principle of brotherhood/sisterhood without out any
discrimination and were interested in the well being of the fellow human
beings. This was also the case in many of the lodges I was a member in India
for several decades. Just wanted everyone to know different lodges have
different policies in their program scheduling.
