JINARAJADASA COLLECTED AND PUBLISHED MANY LETTERS FROM THE MASTERS



Curuppumullage Jinarajadasa was the protégé of Charles Leadbeater, and later he held several important positions in the Theosophical Society of Adyar, among the most important were: from 1921 to 1928 he was the vice-president of this organization, and from 1946 until his death in 1953 he was the international president. 

And although  Jinarajadasa  continued to promote the lies proclaimed by Leadbeater and Besant, he also did something very good, which was to compile, transcribe, and publish many of the letters that the masters had written.

In 1919 he published the first volume of the book "Letters from the Masters of the Wisdom" where he transcribed many letters that different theosophists had received. Link 


In 1923 he published the book "The Early Teachings of the Masters, 1881-1883" where he transcribed several of the letters that Alfred Sinnett received. 


In 1925 he published the second volume of the book "Letters from the Masters of the Wisdom" where he transcribed more letters from the masters that he had obtained. Link 


In 1934 he published the book "Did Madame Blavatsky Forge the Mahatma Letters?" where he presented more letters from the trans-Himalayan masters.


In May 1937, he published an article in the journal 'The Theosophist' (pp. 105-109) entitled "Did H.P. Blavatsky Invented the Mahatmas?" in which he revealed the existence of a letter written by Master Kuthumi to Annie Besant in 1900, nine years after Blavatsky's death.


In 1941, he published a small book titled "The KH Letters to CW Leadbeater," in which he transcribed three messages that Master Kuthumi sent to Leadbeater when he was an apprentice disciple. And although Leadbeater ultimately failed, he gave the appearance of success to others.


In 1946, he published a 31-page booklet entitled "The History of the Mahatma Letters," summarizing the history of the principal letters the masters wrote to various members of the Theosophical Society from 1870 to 1900. Link


In 1948 he published a 24-page booklet entitled "The Maha Chohan Letter," adding a lengthy commentary at the end.





NOTE

Despite the charlatanism that Jinarajadasa continued to promote, he is thanked for this valuable work that he also did.
