Theosophy has its own secret teachers. We shall keep it that way.

The following might be interesting to some of the readers.
THE SECRET TEACHER
(Idries Shah from "Thinkers of the East")
A man found the secret teacher Khidr working as a ferryman.
Khidr read his thoughts, and said to him:
"If I approach people in the street and tell them what to do,
they will think I am mad, or am doing it for myself, and they
will not do it. If I dress like a learned or rich man, and
advise them, they will disobey or else simply try to please
me, instead of trying to please that which I represent. But
if I mix with the people and say a word here and a word there,
some will listen, just as you yourself recognized me, and a
thousand others did not."
A few words on El-Khidr, good and evil.
