". . . Those who represented the Masters of the Great Lodge were not 
casual students attracted to a philosophy, nor mere tyros in 
occultism, but Initiates-----masquerading in the mortal garments 
known as H.P. Blavatsky and William Q. Judge. This is a matter of 
knowledge to living persons today." Theosophy, April 1915. 

". . . The various theosophical societies and esoteric sections of 
the day are in no sense representative of the School of the Masters 
or the Theosophical Movement. . . The Anciently universal Wisdom-
Religion, the School of the Masters and the Theosophical Movement 
are in unbroken continuity of existence to-day as always. . . .Now, 
as always, they have their representatives and agents among men, who 
cannot be found out by any but those who have earned the right to 
know them. . . ." Theosophy, February 1915. 

"Today, after a quarter of a century, there are no less than three 
widely heralded ---and a half dozen lesser known---'outer 
heads,' 'esoteric sections,' 'visible agents,' and what-not, all 
issuing 'orders,' 'instructions,' and 'teachings,' professedly 
emanating from the Masters of H.P.B. and from H.P.B. herself. . . . 
No Brahmanism, no Catholicism, no Jesuitry, has ever exceeded the 
arrogance of its pretensions to spiritual authority on the part of 
its leaders. . . ."  Theosophy, July 1915. 

"If, then, the true Theosophical Movement, and the true Chelas of 
the School of the Masters are not to be found among those who have 
lost the point of contact with the Masters, while yet loudly 
proclaiming themselves Initiates and Outer and Inner Heads of this, 
that, and the other theosophical society and esoteric section, where 
may they be discerned? . . ." Theosophy, March 1915 

". . . The actual name of the School of the Masters [is not] used by 
any of the so-called esoteric sections of the now numerous 
Theosophical Societies." 

"Much of the instructions and communications in connection with the 
Esoteric Section of the Theosophical Society, and much regarding its 
history, are necessarily of such a pledged or sacred character that 
they cannot be made public. But enough is believed to be of public 
record to make possible a clear tracing of the lines of cause and 
effect for the benefit of all students, and definite indices for all 
who may come in touch with the private papers of the Section." 
Theosophy, March 1915
