This is amazing garbage! I read a very good post elsewhere for somebody who traced it back to Mme. Blavatsky and the 19 century theosophists. With heresy, there’s never anything new under the sun. These ditzy old ladies should be embarrassed.
The worst thing however was that they actually taught this trash to their novices, the few they had, and also worked as catechists and introduced it into other areas of the church. My question, therefore, is where were the bishops during all of this?
Some of these were Diocesan orders and were directly under the bishop. Even in the case of the pontifical orders, they still would have been doing something that would’ve caught the attention of the local bishop. Why such silence? Were the bishops afraid of them, or did they agree with them? Or were they just so negligent that they really didn’t care?
I think going back more than 50 years to legitimize the garbage these ladies are into is giving them way too much credit. They sound like New Age yahoos, nothing more.
