Contained within this quote is a great prophecy. The results of 
which can be seen on the physical even if the Masters are not. Many 
think of these Masters as sitting together in some high place, or as 
they have been popularized in movies sitting together getting high --
LOL. Such is the mind of those who get these ideas as they trickle 
down without filters.

But the coming of peace is described here as coming through 
Brotherhood. That word was the cornerstone to the Theosophical 
Movement even though the critics tried to take the world's eyes off 
this theme. The days of the TS are past. We are still left with the 
Masters on the levels they find themselves and we try also to find 
them.

As for peace DK says :"The era of peace will be ushered in by a 
gathering together (1) on earth (2) of the forces (3) which stand 
for construction, and development, (4) and by a conscious deliberate 
banding together of groups (5) in every land who embody the 
principle (as far as they can vision it) of Brotherhood (6)."

I have added the numbers and the parentheses so that we can look at 
each part of this prophecy more closely.
