"Excuseme! A few months out of theosophical sites and I have lost my adab (manners). And such an action generates the appropriate reaction.
However I think that the title and statements say more than what actually is said in the article. Besides,…"

Leila Becquer commented on Joaquim Soares's blog post Bin Laden and the Occult Roots of Afghan War"It seems to me that this article lacks of "exoteric" information needed to analyze such a deep matter as political movements inside Islam and political agenda of Western potencies."
Leila Becquer replied to David Reigle's discussion Sanskrit Language Study"Hi Nancy and all, I want to add some thoughts about the mahavakyas but maintaining the focus in the reflection about the sanskrit language, topic which meet us here.The first reflections is related to a post I made some weeks ago, I wrote:
Brahmāsmī…"
Leila Becquer replied to David Reigle's discussion Sanskrit Language Study"Before the next discussion about mahavakyas will be open, I want to share with you the Shankaracharya's advice, found in Sadhanapañcakam, Five verses about the spiritual practice:
Brahmāsmī vibhāyatām
And it means:
You have to…"
Leila Becquer commented on K. Paul Johnson's blog post HPB in Mark Singleton's Yoga Body: The Origins of Modern Posture Practice"I cant post all the text, so I will post in parts.
Because promises are compromises I write now.
The book recommended seems quite amazing Paul and I saw that the last chapter is devoted to Krishnamacharya in whom I thought the first time I…"
Leila Becquer replied to Joe Fulton's discussion What Languages Was HPB Proficient In?"She was born in Yekaterinoslav to day Dnipropetrovsk, in Ukraine, so probably she knew ukrainan too.
In her letters there are spanish expressions, and in her stories even romanian, but this not indicates, of course, a knowledge of those languagues."
Leila Becquer replied to Richard Ihle's discussion "Gems" Question"Hi Richard, I'm not a scholar but I can add something, I think.
Yes, HPB compiled it, mainly from Dhammapada. But there is from the Javidan Khirad too, a persian book of aforism, the Vedas, etc.
Some are, obviously from her pen, specialy the…"
Leila Becquer commented on Joe Fulton's blog post The Origins of the Stanzas of Dzyan - A Project"Of course I do not agree with Schuller's denying of the benefit of doubt to HPB.
The problem with HPB is that she deliberately could have acted in some strange ways.If I have not misunderstood it, in p. 412 of Collected Writing, vol. I, Olcott…"
Leila Becquer replied to David Reigle's discussion Sanskrit Language Study"Thanks Nancy.
I hope not being out of place, following in my way of doing blind posts (because i haven't that book) I want to add that it is important to distinguish between hard and soft consonants and aspirates and non-aspirates. It will take…"
Leila Becquer commented on Joe Fulton's blog post The Origins of the Stanzas of Dzyan - A Project"I forgot it, it is interesting to note the emphasis given by HPB to the breath is not the pulmonary breath, so it has no relation with pranayama practices.
Reading the excerpts from the Dalai Lama given by David it is interesting to note the same…"
Leila Becquer commented on Joe Fulton's blog post The Origins of the Stanzas of Dzyan - A Project"Regarding daiviprakriti-deviprakriti, it could be the same, there is no need to be different thing.
But, the use of daivi is perhaps older than devi, i'm not sure."
Leila Becquer replied to Nicholas Weeks's discussion Kwan-Yin or Avalokiteshvara, a Mahayana View"This seems a challenge, it is good.
I think that SD is esoteric enough, as esoteric as sutras are, for as you know sutras are matched with tantras and tantras with initiations in order to empower the disciple yogi to accomplish the sadhana. In…"
Leila Becquer replied to David Reigle's discussion Sanskrit Language Study"Hi Nancy, as I said, I frien of mine studied in that University and he helped me with sanskrit.
As far I know, there are no books written directly in spanish yet. In his college they were working on that (he even did some research in order to do…"
Leila Becquer replied to Joe Fulton's discussion What are some good tools for learning Sanskrit / Tibetan / Pali / Chinese?"I think that in order that this issue have a relation wich the intention of the thread, could be paraphrased something like: which are the realities or "things" referred in mystical books besides the words, symbols or sentences used…"
Leila Becquer replied to David Reigle's discussion Sanskrit Language Study"Hi, I think that Coulson's book Teach Yoursel Sanskrit could be useful, it is not so easy or funny as others books in that collection but it seems pretty good.
Another option but very basic A Sanskrit Manual, by R Antoine, Allied Publishers, in…"
Leila Becquer replied to Maxim Bardin's discussion Evidence Confirming Theosophy ?"I don't mean this, I'm trying to remark the difference between a general statement, or a rethoric of coinciding with scientific community, and a rethoric of make some very definite statements, this is the quality of falsifiable. From a…"
