Is Master Koot Hoomi a "fundamentalist"
when he writes the following:
". . . You have heard of and read about a good
many Seers, in the past and present centuries,
such as Swedenborg, Boehme, and others. Not one
among the number but thoroughly honest, sincere,
and as intelligent, as well educated; aye, even
learned. Each of them in addition to these qualities,
has or had . . . a 'Guardian' and a Revelator -- under
whatever 'mystery' and 'mystic name' -- whose mission
it is -- or has been to spin out to his spiritual
ward -- a new system embracing all the details of
the world of Spirit. Tell me, my friend, do you know
of two that agree?"
"And why, since truth is one, and that putting entirely the question
of discrepancies in details aside -- we do not find them agreeing
even upon the most vital problems -- those that have either 'to be,
or not to be' -- and of which there can be no two solutions?"
