About This Book

A former inner-circle pupil mounts a detailed protest arguing that later leaders of a theosophical movement departed from the founder's esoteric teachings, promoting moral laxity, doctrinal corruption, and altered texts. The pamphlet reviews controversies and legal cases, examines council politics and the role of educational institutions, scrutinizes alleged tampering with writings and claims, and presents contemporary Indian and international criticisms. It closes with regional addenda, a resigning member's indictment, and documentary appendices and bibliography to support the author's case.
