Dear friends,

The "Justice to Judge" initiative has the participation of many students from various countries and affiliations.

One of those many letters sent to Adyar came from Greece, by Aspasia Papadomichelaki, a student from the ULT- Greece.

Below you can read her letter, which is also published at our websites at: http://www.theosophyonline.com/ler.php?id=225  and   http://www.esoteric-philosophy.com/2011/04/w-q-judge-great-absent.html .

Best regards, Joaquim

Dear Mrs. Radha Burnier,
 
It’s been a long time since we met during my visit to Adyar and during European conferences.
 
All the while, I have been following up Adyar activity through the monthly issues of the “Theosophist”.
 
On the occasion of William Q. Judge’s birthday, April 13rd, I would like to briefly lay before you  my point of view on that significant man whose contribution in disseminating Modern Theosophy, even though important, has not been duly recognized and vindicated to this day.
 
When I joined the Athens T.S., William Q. Judge’s name was typically written along with the names of the other two co-founders of the Society. Still, no one among its members had any idea or could say a word about that great theosophist and his exceptional work. Later on, when I became an ULT associate, I found out for myself about his work and I got to know how devoted he was to the Cause; finally, I realized that W. Judge was the great “absent”, the ignored hero of our Movement.
 
I appreciate your conscientious work for T.S., the way you have chosen to do it.
I also believe that W. Judge worked for the Cause along the guiding lines conveyed by the Mahatmas through H.P.B. His contribution was essential in that he presented the teaching in concise form and managed to make it accessible to more people. W. Judge was the first one to disseminate and establish Theosophy in North America.  No one can disregard either him or the two other co-founders who all served the Cause with incredible self-sacrifice and renunciation.

We all know that human beings are prone to mistakes and we are all under probation. But since the Movement was chosen as the “corner stone of humanity’s future religions” how can that goal be achieved if BROTHERHOOD does not embrace all and redress any past injustice?
 
The Athens ULT has decided to stand by the “Justice for Judge” with a video, posted on You Tube,https://www.youtube.com/user/TheTheosophia   giving highlights on his life and work.
 
Hoping that you will lend a rightful ear and sound judgement,
 
I remain cordially yours,
