LETTER No. CXXX--From T. Subba Row. States the conditions on which he will give A.P.S. instruction in Occult Science -- wavering state of mind fatal.

LETTER No. CXXXI-- From T. Subba Row. Sinnett gives qualified consent -- impossible to give him practical instruction -- rules inflexible -- the sacrifices demanded by Occult Science -- acquisition of psychic powers not the object of occult training -- they alone will never secure immortality.

LETTER No. CXXXIV-- A dictated letter from M. All Theosophists endeavour to correspond with him -- do not deserve such privilege. What is expected of them -- thousands of Fakirs, Sannyasis, etc., have never seen or heard of them -- they are on the path of error -- bad physical magnetic emanations not insurmountable -- faith in God and Gods attract the worst influences -- the Chohans of darkness preside at Pralayas.

Sinnett's invitation to her -- reasons for refusing -- what she endured -- K.H. and M. prepare to work -- H.P.B.'s hour of triumph approaches -- Sinnett does not know the real H.P.B. Her inner realself imprisoned -- prophecies that Sinnett will one day blaspheme against K.H. -- their benevolent contempt for H.P.B

Her physical condition - - transmission of letters -- Arthur Gebhard -- dying people do not tell lies -- H.P.B. never a deceiver -- explains the methods of occult transmission of letters; H.P.B. "a fraud with excellent qualities" -- explains what happened to Gebhard's letter -- no fraud; T.S. will live in India but seems doomed in Europe -- Hodgson's investigation -- the opposition of the Padris -- her trials -- cannot trust her friends. Propaganda against the Founders -- Oakleys advise H.P.B. to resign -- pledges herself not to mention the Masters' names -- try to deserve personal communication with the Master; Probably her last letter.

Worldly society in the L.L. -- A.P.S. incapable of perceiving the truth -- no inner group consecrated to the truth -- the last trial of a Chela ; 484. The necessity ofspiritual discernment -- nothing can kill the London Lodge except passivity -- human dirt never sticks ; 485. Sinnett urged to develop his intuition ; 486

LETTER No. CXLIIA -- Memorandum by Damodar. The Theosophical Society considered a religious sect -- if based upon universal Brotherhood the occult study should be secret -- sacred knowledge should not be vulgarised -- unconsciously misleading the public as to management of the Society -- the Adepts do not control the Society -- admission of members -- fees -- phenomena hunters. 486- 487.
