hello and welcome. it is good to have you here. please take the time to look around. this forum is based on the TS society from Point Loma and my teachers and mentors were raised and taught by Dr De Purucker, Tingley, Judge, and Blavatsky. there was indeed a riff many years ago and the TS branched off. we do not acknowledge Leadbetter, Besant, or those at the other section. however even though Mabel Collins in a small way betrayed Blavatsky and the TS, her works are deeply important to a degree. if you have any questions please feel free to ask.
