G. de Purucker on Katherine Tingley, His Relations with
the Masters & the Future of the Esoteric School
------------------------------------------------------

In 1929, Gottfried de Purucker wrote:

"I have been so near to our blessed K.T. [Katherine Tingley] for so
many years, and she trusted me so fully, that better than anyone...
I am able to speak as I do from my own intimate knowledge of her
plans for the glorious future of our Society."

"All the Comrades here feel a supreme confidence in the future, for
they know that the Work is fully safeguarded, and thanks be to the
immortal gods! they trust the one who now assumes the reins of
government in the line of succession from H.P.B., W.Q.J., and
K.T...."

"Thrice recently, before and since the passing of K.T. [Katherine
Tingley] has one of the Great Teachers been with me here in Loma-
land. I will open my heart to you and tell you something. The two
Masters who originally founded the Theosophical Society, and who are
the Chiefs of the E.S., are still working with the Society both
inner and outer, and for it.... Each of these two has progressed far
along the Path of Initiation since H.P.B.'s days...."

"I have seen and conversed with Master M within this last month, and
twice has Master K.H. been in my office, once alone, and once with a
chela, who said not one word, but whom I knew to be a Tibetan of
high esoteric rank. These conversations are of course a very holy
and precious treasure to me, and in them I was shown the future of
the Society, what to expect and what to look forward to; and I again
pledged myself in a manner of which I may not speak, but which I
feel it my duty to tell you of...."

"I have opened a little to you the door that was opened to me. I
hereby give you my full confidence and trust, and assure you that
even as you will be loyal and devoted to me, your Leader and
Official Head, and your Teacher of the E.S., so shall I be utterly
devoted and true to you. May the sublime Light of the Great Lodge,
the Light of the Tathagatas, burn in your hearts and minds, and lead
you into ways of peace...."

"If I can only infuse into the membership of our Society all over
the world, the enthusiasm, the power, the Lodge-force, that is now
pouring through me, our successes will be unspeakably brilliant! You
will assuredly receive in time some of this Lodge-force; for as I am
the intermediary or mediator between the Great Lodge of the Masters
of Compassion and Wisdom and the general membership of the T.S., and
more particularly of the E.S.: being the channel through which the
Lodge-forces pour: so also am I therefore the Teacher, and will hand
on what I may and can to those who prove themselves fit and ready to
receive."

"Consequently, it will be my duty as soon as time and strength
permit me to do so, to issue new E.S. teachings of a far deeper and
more esoteric kind than those which were issued even by H.P.B. or by
W.Q.J., or by our Beloved, Katherine Tingley. This I can do for the
simple reason that these, my three great Predecessors, never had the
opportunity to do what Karma now impels and compels me to do: to
besiege the Portals of Destiny and to open a way into the Mysteries,
because the members, through the life-work of our beloved K.T., are
now ready to hear and therefore to receive what I can give them ? an
opportunity of incalculably splendid promise which neither H.P.B.
nor W.Q.J. nor even K.T. had."

Collated from some of G. de Purucker's letters to member of the
Point Loma T.S. and Esoteric School.
