of Ethics and Universal Brotherhood

“The white race must be the first to stretch
out the hand of fellowship to the dark nations,
to call the poor despised ‘nigger’ brother.
This prospect may not smile to all, but he is
no Theosophist who objects to this principle.”
[The Maha-Chohan, in “Letters from the Masters
of the Wisdom”, transcribed by C. Jinarajadasa,
TPH, Adyar, India, 1948, First Series, Letter 1, p. 5.]
Years ago a North-American
member of E-Theosophy group [1] wrote to us and said that he
suspected esoteric philosophy had a racist view regarding African nations and black
people.
When we asked him for evidence and clarification, our
friend started by mentioning a few statements made by William Q. Judge on the
black race, which can be seen on chapter 9 of his book “Echoes From the
Orient”.
