Theos-Talk Archives (December 2003 Message tt00261)

In 1882, Master Koot Hoomi wrote to A.P. Sinnett about
that "crowded thoroughfare . . . on which
Spiritualists and mystics, prophets and seers elbow
each other now-a-day. . . ."

The Master went on to say:

". . . Vainly do your modern seers and their
prophetesses, creep into every cleft and crevice
without outlet or continuity they chance to see; and
still more vainly, when once within do they lift up
their voices and loudly cry: "Eureka! We have gotten a
Revelation from the Lord! [or from the Masters!]" --
for verily have they nothing of the kind. They have
disturbed but bats, less blind than their intruders;
who, feeling them flying about, mistake them as often
for angels -- as they too, have wings!"
