Theos-Talk Archives (February 2003 Message tt00083)

I think I understand most of the points. To me, my Master is no more but a
mirror which reflects the Higher Self which is I Am. The fact is that
humankind abolished its divine mission, and insist of staying as limited
creatures subject to blind fate. The Masters have been trying to help this
state for a very long time, but humans, who witness their mastery, only turn
them into *Gods*, idols of worship, instead of following their footsteps.
The only aim of the True Masters is to speed our spiritual evolution in
order that we will quickly assume the same role, in order to help those who
are still stuck in illusion, etc.
