Since Madame Blavatsky died over 80 years ago we can check many of the claims made in these ancient documents. For example, THE SECRET DOCTRINE in its Proem makes mention of the buried cities of a lost civilization in the Tarim Basin (THE SECRET DOCTRINE was published in 1888, two years before H.P.B.'s death) BUT THESE CITIES WERE ONLY EXCAVATED BY RUSSIAN ARCHAEOLOGISTS IN 1917 PROVING CONCLUSIVELY WHAT WAS TAUGHT TO HER IN TIBET! These people of the Tarim Basin spoke TOCHARIAN, a now extinct Aryan language, as stated by Prof. V. Gordon Childe in his book, THE ARYANS, published in 1927. Can you call this knowledge of an undiscovered civilization fraudulent?

In a number of paintings Hatch imposes totemic animals--lizards, dinosaurs, lions--in unexpected places: as decorative pins, unwieldy ties, chokingly large necklaces.

How in thunderation could anyone anticipate a result like this?
