Hi all,

I just wrote a blogpost on my Modern Theosophy Blog and not till I was finished did I notice it was the day after White Lotus. Here it is: 

Theosophists must excuse me for once more butting in where I no longer have any business. I was thinking just now about where the Theosophical Movement went wrong. When did, in…

Besant and CWL did occult research on atom and their observations were published in 1908. While there was a lot of questions about them, here is a recent article by a well known Indian Scientist which appeared in an Indian Newspaper. Here are two quotes:

There was no solution to this dilemma 10 - 20 years ago. But today we have one which is inexpensive and efficient -… Continue
