While I certainly need to familiarize myself with the writings of Blavatsky and Judge, and I respect that they are indeed the eminent authorities on Theosophy, I'm much more interested with picking through their careful philosophies and finding wisdom to inform the construction of my own. I think we'll see each other again. Thanks for the comment, Leslie!

One of the main purposes of the ULT is to present the teachings of Theosophy and then allow thought and question to follow. When it comes down to what Theosophy teaches, rather than anyone individual's opinion, the original writings by Blavatsky and Judge are the final answer. No one, of course, is required to accept the ideas but from the platform at ULT, it is Theosophy that is presented. We, there we go again, certainly hope you will return.
