Theos-Talk Archives (August 1999 Message tl00021)

I hope so. The bottom line is making theosophy accessible to the world. Its
effect on the world is what counts and not through which channel.

There is the long standing organizational mind set which seem to pervade
all through the various sections around the world which seem to indicate
that none of the elected national and international official are seen on
the Internet maillists or newsgroups interacting with the theosophical
community. What we see is static web pages (which is mostly one way
communication, akin to print publications) and pictures of some of the
elected officials in some web sites -- I do not know if those pictures are
meant to send any subliminal messages to inquirers?

In the longer run, the whole question of the role of organizations may
drastically change. Will have to see.
