	I certainly would hope so.  The 3 propositions in the SD, if
nothing else.  I slightly reworded these in my Enochian Physics,
and called them the Three Fundamental Laws of Magick, giving
HPG credit, of course.  This doubtless caused ripples of
apoplexy in some TS arenas, and may be the reason that
everything I write for any TS is instantly rejected (?).  Anyway,
I call them (1) the law of duality, (2) the law of periodicity,
and (3) the law of identity.  I would think that any magican,
occultist, theosophist would adhere to these "laws" in some
fashion.

	I have never been "in" and so filteration is not necessary for me.

	I have loved your articles, being the sole attempt of Wheaton
to address humor at all.  The AT seems to take things too seriously most
of the time.

	If your trying to get "magic" out of HPB, then your name has
probably been placed on the same list as mine as Chuck.  IMHO magic
is the natural fallout of trying to put the SD into practical application.

	I already figured this out.  They rejected my book on how to
visit the Globes of HPB's planetary chain or Gupta Vidya Model even
though it is fully referenced throughout by the theosophical literature.
They wouldn't even consider looking at the typescript.  Theory is in,
practice is out.

>So, what is my next move?  Try to start my own organization called IS

disappearing-upon-reading,
>unpolished cyber-snippets on theos-l?
	I have the same problem, and have not yet decided.
