tktt: The Abuse Of Sacred Names And Terms

“Enq:  Do you reject “Louis” as an Adept?

 
Theo:  We denounce no one, leaving this noble task to our enemies. The spiritualistic author of Art Magic, etc., may or may not have been acquainted with such an Adept – and saying this, I say far less than what that lady has said and written about us and Theosophy for the last several years – that is her own business.

 
Only when, in a solemn scene of mystic vision, an alleged “Adept” sees “spirits” presumably at Greenwich, England, through Lord Rosse’s telescope, which was built in, and never moved from, Parsonstown, Ireland (“Ghost Land” part I), I may well be permitted to wonder at the ignorance of that “Adept” in matters of science.

 
This beats all the mistakes and blunders committed at times by the chelas of our Teachers! And it is this “Adept” that is used now to break the teachings of our Masters!

 
Enq:  I quite understand your feeling in this matter, and think it only natural. And now, in view of all that you have said and explained to me, there is one subject on which I should like to ask you a few questions.

 
Theo:  If I can answer them I will. What is that?”
