"Eleven people were hanging on a rope under a

helicopter, ten men and one woman. The rope was not

strong enough to carry them all, so they decided that

one had to leave, because otherwise they were all

going to fall.

 

They weren't able to name that person, until the woman

gave a very touching speech.

 

She said that she would voluntarily let go of the

rope, because, as a woman, she was used to giving up

everything for her husband and kids or for men in

general, and was used to always making sacrifices with

little in return.

 

As soon as she finished her speech, all the men

started clapping."

You may call me "bill", although that may not be my real name. Some of

you may have known me recently as the bodyguard for Paul Johnson.

Others may remember me as the author and causeless cause of the famous,

"Bill Meredith's Excellent Post" series of e-mails.

 

Presently, I am an agent with the FBTI and I am involved in an

undercover investigation of espionage and related activities conducted

by notorious "master"minds. If I told you anymore I would have to kill

you which no doubt would leave quite and unpleasant "odour."

 

Seriously, and yet only relatively true, I am an intricate web of

relationships, attachments, and addictions. I spend most of my day

trying to figure out where I begin and they end and most of my night

trying to figure out where they begin and I end. Despite my tangled

web, or should I say perhaps because of it, I tend to see others as

somewhat tangled in their own webs too. As such, I enjoy talking with

people who speak with the understanding that all attempts at

discussion take place in and about the world of relative truth that we

have woven about us.

 

Where am I from? Not far from here:

http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/primer/java/scienceopticsu/powersof10/

 

What are my beliefs? That beliefs can be dangerous.

 

Why am I joining this group? To be among friends.

 

 

poof!

Welcome, Bill, to "terra firma". Like you, I am also on an

undercover mission. So far I have discovered that Leadbeater's

brother has reincarnated in the Amazon region and gets high on

guarana. I cannot tell you for sure if CWL himself has reincarnated

but I discovered very strong evidences of a highly secret multimedia

project that is planning to reconstruct his voice and tridimensional

image so that once again he can go on lecture tours, now through the

Internet, around the world. Apparently, the first public programme

will take place at Balmoral Beach, in Sydney, near the location

where the famous Amphitheatre was built. Enough for now.

 

Should we acknowledge that in creating this friendly space, Erica is

acting like Ariadne in our labyrinthine excursions to face the

Minotaur within? I only hope she gives us enough rope.:)

 

With warm good wishes,

FBTI INFORMATIVE

 

The agent Ariadne is at the moment working on a secret mission:

 

Rescue Blavatsky and Olcott from the Caves and Jungles of Hindustan.

 

Last time Olcott was seen he was hanging on a cow’s tail. The Buddhist monk

Guarana Pemba who witnessed the fact gave the following statement:

 

- The last time I saw Olcott's he felt from a slippery cliff, but was fast

enough to grab the tail of a sacred cow which was passing by.

 

She is also investigating the possible connection of the Buddhist monk Guarana

Pemba with Leadbeater’s brother.

 

As she is very busy with the above task, she may take sometime to reply.

Help!

 

Two translators on a ship are talking.

"Can you swim?" asks one.

"No" says the other, "but I can shout for help in nine languages."

 

 

Language Barrier

 

Two highway workers were busy working at a construction site when a big

car with diplomatic license plates pulled up.

 

"Parlez-vous franηais?" the driver asks them. The two

workers just stared.

 

"Sprechen Sie Deutsch?" The two continued to stare at him.

"Fala portuguκs?" Neither worker said anything.

 

"Parlate Italiano?" Still no response.

 

Finally, the man drives off in disgust.

 

One worker turned to the other and said, "Gee, maybe we should learn a

foreign language..."

 

"What for? That guy knew four of them and what good did it do him?"

Greek

 

In Brazil when someone is trying to say something that we cannot understand we

say: are you speaking Greek? Here in Greece when someone is trying to say

something and we can't understand they say: Are u speaking Chinese? I wonder

what they say in China. :)

If a new, defining, label is needed to go hand in hand with

your "Originalist Theosophy", it could be:

 

PTOTOTKs: "Proper Theosophist of the Only True Kind"

 

Of course, it goes without saying that a "Proto-Ptototk" is one that

has read only half of the first chapter of "The Key to Theosophy"!

The return of the lightbulb

 

Q: How many Theosophists does it take to change a lightbulb?

 

A: None. By the time they finish discussing whether the lightbulb needs

changing, the proper method in which to change the lightbulb, how it might

have been done historically, and how everybody else changes lightbulbs,

it's already daylight.

 

B: None. It was the karma of the bulb (and perhaps the lamp) to burn out.

In time it will replace itself, perhaps with a higher but never with a lower

wattage bulb.

 

C. If we consider that was during a meeting of Ledbeaterians and Blavatskyans

they would remain in darkness once they would never agree about the proper

way to change the lightbulb.

 

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/theosophy_/message/3598


 

D. None. If they are krishnamurtists, they would say: Light is

bulbless land!

THE MAHATRIX

 

- Hi Neo

 

- Who are you? How did you know my name?

 

- I am Morpheus and I know a lot about you. Have you heard of the Mahatrix?

 

- The Mahatrix?

 

- The Mahatrix is all around you! Take the blue pill and stay with Leadbeater,

take the red pill and stay with Blavatsky, take the white pill and I will show

you the truth.

 

Neo feels the smooth skin of the capsules, with the moisture growing in his

palms.

 

-Remember that all I am offering is the truth nothing more.

 

Neo opens his mouth and swallows the white pill.

 

-Follow me Neo...

 

- Neo, here is a group to discuss about theosophy.

 

- Eeeuw!

 

- Welcome to the real world! From the beginning of the theosophical movement in

the 19th century, conflicts started happening, and groups began splitting,

members left the theosophical society and founded other movements, other members

were expelled from the society. In the 20th century, theosophical groups from

several branches of the theosophical movement began attacking each other. For

decades they are labelling each other, excluding those who think different.

These fights remain until today between theosophists.

 

And...

Every time you give a lecture.....

Every time you are present in a lecture....

Every time you sign up for a workshop......

Every time you post in a theosophical group.....

Every time you are in a theosophical meeting....

 

...the Mahatrix is all around you Neo, but the Mahatrix isn’t real it’s a Maya.

...you can touch it, feel it, listen to it, write about it, but isn't real.

There still a chance to change the system. One should look for the answer unless

they have to because once you see it, everything changes. Your life and the

world you live in will never be the same.

 

That is the Mahatrix, Neo.

 

- Are you ready to join the resistance?

 

- Count me in! Yahhh!!

12.Plato: For the greater good.

 

13.Karl Marx: It was a historical inevitability.

Hush Little Baby

 

New Age Version

 

 

Hush little baby don't you squall,

Momma's gonna buy you a crystal ball.

And if you still can't see beyond,

Momma's gonna buy you a magic wand.

And if that wand don't change your fate,

Momma's gonna teach you to levitate.

And if the astral makes you sick,

Momma's gonna buy you an incense stick.

And if that frankincense smells rank,

Mom'll buy a sensory deprivation tank.

And if that tank don't float your bones,

Momma's gonna buy you some some precious stones.

And if those gems don't ease your heart,

Momma's gonna buy you a natal chart.

And if your planets go berserk,

Momma's gonna buy you some bodywork.

And if your aura still needs kneading,

Momma's gonna buy you a past life reading.

And if your destiny stays hid,

Momma's gonna buy you a pyramid.

And if your chakras still feel stressed,

Momma's gonna take you on a vision quest.

And if power animals don't come to charm ya,

Sorry, kid, it's just your karma.
