TRUTH MUST PREVAIL

NEW MESSIAH 'B DICTUM.

ORGANISATION SUPERFLUOUS.

(•Australian Press Association.) (Received 2.33 p.m.) LONDON, August 5.

Mrs Besant, whose path with Erishnamurti, the “New Messiah," has not been without pitfalls, has bowed to the dramatic announcement by the young prophet at the National Congress in Holland that the Order of the Star of the East is henceforth dissolved.

Kmhnamurti said: “Religious philosophers need no organisation, yet its members are unwilling, to face the truth. What, then, is the use of orI ; ’ 1 ganisation?"

Mrs Besant announces: “.Considering Krislmam.urti's viewpoint, dissolution of the Order appears a logical step. Various trusts will carry out the publication of Krishnamnrti's writings and 'bring' its message to the world. That message is only partly understood at present, but contains profound truths and will be more fully appreciated as humanity evolves. My fundamental belief in Krishnamurti sis tile World’s Teacher makes me more inclined to observe and study than to pronounce an opinion on one whom I I consider far my superior,"

Mr George Lansbnry, Labour M.P. for Poplar, after a visit to the camp of the .Star of the East stated: “Krishnannirti’s declaration is just what I expected. -Ho represents the new thought of our time. He refpscs to organise either mental or moral eruiteheij for mankind. I rejoice that Krisluuimurti has broken the bondage of mere organisation, relying solely on the truth of his teachings to appeal to mankind.'’
