Theos-Talk Archives (November 1997 Message tl00175)

There is something called the Declaration which ULT members
agree to when they join, which serves as a statement of
principles.  The group is run by the board of the Theosophy
Company, which publishes the books, pays the lights, etc. at
the headquarters in LA; dunno how the local branches relate the
Theosophy Company.

I have to say I've been to couple of NYC ULT programs and while
they did have a "canned" feeling indeed, the questions
certainly didn't seem to be rehearsed.  There were clearly some
new people there who asked unexpected questions, and no one got
thrown out.
