"On the astral and psychic planes the Masters 
are always stronger than the Dugpas, because 
there, good is stronger than evil. But on 
our material plane, evil is stronger than 
good, and the Adepts having to exercise 
cunning if acting on this plane, (which 
is contrary to their natures) encounter 
great difficulty and can only palliate 
evil effects. In powers not good there is 
an absence of good, but not presence of 
evil, and the higher you go, the more does 
evil become the absence of good. The 
first exercise of Dugpaship is to psychologize 
people. Every man has a potential Dugpa 
in him. When the 6th Race reaches its close, 
there will be no more Dugpas. A Dugpa may 
become converted during life, at the expense 
of terrible suffering and trials. Dugpas are 
usually destroyed by Kundalini, the astral 
fire. They consume themselves. The Dugpa is 
forced to his own destruction. He becomes fascinated, runs into the 
evil current and so destroys himself. The beasts of Dugpas have 
nothing but the animal in them, and even when they awaken the highest 
spirituality in them, it is the spirituality of the beast where there 
is nothing but vile, selfish instinct. On earth there is no evil 
power higher than the Dugpas. They cannot when seen psychically 
conceal the presence of red about them. It is always visible in their 
aura. The color is deep crimson red. The sign of the presence of a 
Dugpa is a cold, clammy, empty, snaky feeling. Do not mistake the 
above for another feeling, viz., when chelas materialize they create 
a vacuum around them, which feels to us like a change of atmosphere, 
like being suddenly removed to a high plateau in Thibet. (The one a 
dry cold like high atmosphere, the other clammy)."
