With regard to the Theosophists and their activities;
although they obviously try to copy and claim as their own some of the
principles of the Cause, yet the Guardian feels that it would be of no
advantage to oppose them and to refute their arguments. The best attitude for
the friends to adopt in such cases at the present time is to totally disregard
and even neglect their opponents. This has invariably been his advice to the
friends, whether in the East or in the West.

Day’)
