"Our aim here is simply to establish whether or not C. W. Leadbeater was a paedophile, sex criminal against young boys, a chronic liar, fraud, and even a black magician. For over a century, many concerned Theosophists have been emphasising that this is unfortunately the case. Yet many others prefer to turn a blind eye to it all and even to attempt to suppress and obscure the facts, perhaps partly because to discredit Leadbeater inevitably means to discredit Annie Besant, as can be seen from what follows, as well as their immediate successors in the leadership of “The Theosophical Society – Adyar” such as George Arundale and C. Jinarajadasa, not to mention the Liberal Catholic Church and Bishop James Wedgwood, and such popular Leadbeater devotees as Geoffrey Hodson. It also necessarily means to cast a dark shadow on the claims, teachings, and aims, of Alice Bailey, since almost everything in her books is derived from Leadbeater’s ideas and innovations and certainly not from the work of H. P. Blavatsky, as some peculiarly think."
