Hi, I am quoting from the latest dictionary about sects in Germany from a
Mr. Hans-Otto
Wiebus: "Religionen, Sekten, Seelenfanger" (Religions, sects, soul
catchers).

Folllowing Mr. Wiebus the New Acropolis was founded in 1957 in Buenos Aires
from
Jorge Angel Livraga (J.A.L., 1930-1991). Today there shall be 150 Centers
in 50 countries
with total 50,000 members exist. The first europian branch was founded in
1967 in
fascist Spain. The NA is to be said to combine theosophical thought with
right-winged ones
and to have a strong leader system with discipline and order and esoteric.
JAL shall have
based his doctrines on the Theosophy of Blavatsky. There exists an inner
circle which is
organised like a secret society.
So far this dictionary entry.
My comment: Perhaps the allegations are true or half-true. When I am
reading the entry
about Theosophy I don't know wether I should laugh or cry... Sadly no
bibliography of JAL
is given. Perhaps his books are only in Spanish?

Any news about NA are welcome.

Best wishes,
Frank
