As far as I can reason, HPB came with the ancient teachings, gave us
100 years to digest or assimilate it, and basically said that the
next installment would not be provided until the year 1975. I am
presuming that 1975 is the birth date, and the particular soul would
need to be at least 30-35 before "coming out of the closet" so to
speak. I don't think she gave a flapdoodle about those that followed
her, her mission was to get the Secret Doctrine out to the general
public, and this she did. What followed were interpreters - not new
messengers. IMO

Dear Cass
Thank you for reminding me of an interesting subject.
HPB wrote, "No Master of Wisdom from the East will himself appear or
send any one to Europe or America after that period.until the year
1975." ES Introduction, Preliminary Memorandum.
This can be read and understood in different ways dependent on
context.
I have always found it interesting to consider that the 14th Dalai
Lama, Tenzin Gyatso first traveled from the East to the West
(Europe) in 1973 towards the end of the Vietnam war and halfway
through the "cold war."
With the humble manner of a simple Buddhist monk and with the message
of compassion and non-violence, the Dalai Lama's message is simple
yet profound.
Moreover at an interfaith service held in his honour by the World
Congress of Faiths he said: "I always believe that it is much better
to have a variety of religions, a variety of philosophies, rather
than one single religion or philosophy. This is necessary because of
the different mental dispositions of each human being. Each religion
has certain unique ideas or techniques, and learning about them can
only enrich one's own faith."
From the Government of Tibet in Exile website it states:
Recognition and Awards:
Since his first visit to the west in the early 1973, a number of
western universities and institutions have conferred Peace Awards and
honorary Doctorate Degrees in recognition of His Holiness'
distinguished writings in Buddhist philosophy and for his leadership
in the solution of international conflicts, human rights issues and
global environmental problems. In presenting the Raoul Wallenberg
Congressional Human Rights Award in 1989, U.S. Congressman Tom Lantos
said, "His Holiness the Dalai Lama's courageous struggle has
distinguished him as a leading proponent of human rights and world
peace. His ongoing efforts to end the suffering of the Tibetan people
through peaceful negotiations and reconciliation have required
enormous courage and sacrifice."
The 1989 Nobel Peace Prize:
The Norwegian Nobel Committee's decision to award the 1989 Peace
Prize to His Holiness the Dalai Lama won worldwide praise and
applause, with exception of China. The Committee's citation
read, "The Committee wants to emphasize the fact that the Dalai Lama
in his struggle for the liberation of Tibet consistently has opposed
the use of violence. He has instead advocated peaceful solutions
based upon tolerance and mutual respect in order to preserve the
historical and cultural heritage of his people."
On 10 December 1989, His Holiness accepted the prize on behalf of
oppressed everywhere and all those who struggle for freedom and work
for world peace and the people of Tibet. In his remarks he said, "The
prize reaffirms our conviction that with truth, courage and
determination as our weapons, Tibet will be liberated. Our struggle
must remain non-violent and free of hatred."
He also had a message of encouragement for the student-led democracy
movement in China. "In China the popular movement for democracy was
crushed by brutal force in June this year. But I do not believe the
demonstrations were in vain, because the spirit of freedom was
rekindled among the Chinese people and China cannot escape the impact
of this spirit of freedom sweeping in many parts of the world. The
brave students and their supporters showed the Chinese leadership and
the world the human face of that great nations."
So here we all the hallmarks of Theosophy; profound knowledge (Geshe
degree), compassion, wisdom, humility, non-violence, tolerance and
mutual respect, support and promotion of a variety of religions and
philosophies in their own right, promotion of justice and human
rights, courage and unwavering determination in the face of
extraordinary circumstances who also accepts the Chinese authorities
to be his greatest teacher.
We obviously have to be careful when hypothesizing the fulfillment
of prophecy and even more careful not to establish a cult worshiping
mentality in the process.
Whether or not the 14th Dalai Lama is the person or movement to which
HPB alluded, give or take a couple of years, we may never know, such
can be the subtle nature of occultism.
In any event he is an exceptional person with an exceptional message
for all.
Kind regards
Nigel

resources and have come to an end of all their own innate
possibilities and that the problems and conditions confronting them
are beyond their solving or handling, they are apt to look for a
divine Intermediary and for the Mediator Who will plead their cause
with God and bring about a rescue. They look for a Saviour. This
doctrine of Mediators, of Messiahs, of Christs and of Avatars can be
found running like a golden thread through all the world faiths and
Scriptures and relating these world Scriptures to some central source
of emanation, they are found in rich abundance everywhere. Even the
human soul is regarded as an intermediary between man and God; Christ
is believed by countless millions to act as the divine mediator
between humanity and divinity.

go farther and make it clearer. We even have here the Vicarious
Atonement in the form of something mystic which can be transmitted
only by unique beings. No recognition whatever of karma, of the
teaching inherent in all law, that all the powers are potential in
man himself and must be developed by himself, without outer aid other
than teaching and example. Where does the Buddha stand in this,
please? Further. . . "All the world Avatars or Saviors, however,

contact, help and understanding. Subject to those

humanity! Then note the subtle welding of truth with falsehood; the
true Avatar is described - aside from the capitalized pronoun which
none of them ever claimed - rather correctly; thus the infiltrating
proponent of the Arcane School can point out that it "teaches the

civilizations of both hemispheres. Because They are human-divine

the nature of God Himself, the love Principle of Deity. Light,
aspiration, and the recognition of God Transcendent had been the
flickering expression of the human attitude to God, prior to the
advent of the Buddha, the Avatar of Illumination. Then the Buddha
came and demonstrated in His Own life the fact of God Immanent as
well as God Transcendent, of God in the universe and of God within
humanity. The Selfhood of Deity and the Self in the heart of
individual man became a factor in human consciousness. It was a
relatively new truth to man.

love supernal, love as the goal and objective of creation, love as
the basic principle of relationship and love as working throughout

quality, Christ revealed and emphasized and thus altered all human
living, goals and values."

be ignorant about the Buddha and Buddhism. But it does not even
require Theosophy to tell the true relationship. Word for Word the
ethical teachings of the Buddha are the same as those of the Christ,
minus any of the destruction to the unbeliever which has been
inserted even into the Testament; more comprehensively and
philosophically expressed, and expressed five hundred years

scholars, let alone to accredited agents of the Mahatmas! But as to
these Mahatmas - the payoff comes on p.15 - .... "The world to which
He will come is a new world, if not yet a better world; new ideas are
occupying people's minds and new problems await solution. Let us look
at this uniqueness and gain some knowledge of the situation into

approach to this theme and avoid mystical and vague thinking. If it
is true that He plans to reappear, if it is a fact that He will bring
His disciples, the Masters of the Wisdom, with Him, and if this
coming is imminent, what are some of the factors which he and they

(the often voiceless appeal) of all who stand with massed intent; it
is dependent also upon the better establishment of right human
relations and upon certain work being done at this time by senior
Members of the Kingdom of God, the Church Invisible, the spiritual
Hierarchy of our planet; it is dependent also upon the steadfastness
of the Christ's disciples in the world at this time and His initiate-
workers - all working in the many groups, religious, political and
economic. To the above must be added what Christians like to
call 'the inscrutable Will of God', that unrecognized purpose of the

Christ has not reappeared already is the failure of the churches to
live up to their obligations. But this hour is now come. (Followed in
the next sentence by the above quoted remark that we do not yet know
the date or hour.) The other scapegoat - come to think of it, there
are three - the other two are the public which may fail to put up
sufficient cash to insure the coming, and impliedly; the "elect" who
may fail to seize the opportunity of joining the "Servers"; or having
joined, may fail to be sufficiently diligent and cash-worthy in the
raising of funds and propagating the faith. There seems a quite
childlike incomprehension of public reactions among these people; the
combination of a "Second Coming"

money-raising groups involving a grafter or two, do seem to be honest
hard-core fanatics. There probably lies the most serious public
danger. The Fascists, Nazis, and the Birchers, all show the explosive
dangers resident in any pseudo-mystical power-hungry group imbued

Hierarchy that before the cycle of true democracy (as it essentially
exists and will eventually demonstrate), can come into being, the
education of the masses in cooperative statesmanship, in economic
stabilization through right sharing, and in clean, political
interplay is imperatively necessary. The long divorce between
religion and politics must be ended and this can now come about
because of the high level of the human mass intelligence and the fact
that science has made all men so close that what happens in some

interesting. Nothing about the wars of this century - not even atomic
energy - was any surprise to real students of Madame Blavatsky's
Secret Doctrine. She must then have been in on something unforeseen

the Christ made the painful decision to come again; and at that time
gave to the world the oldest prayer known, hitherto not permitted to
be used except by the most exalted beings. It may eventually, says
Mrs. Bailey, become the world prayer. And guess what? It is that
ineffable doggerel with which the "World Goodwill" announcement is
terminated. She actually spends pages on the great potency and power
of this preposterous prayer, claiming that after 18 months (1947)
hundreds of thousands of people were using it day by day and many
times a day; that it is used in 18 different languages; it is being
used in the jungles of Africa and is seen on the desks of great
executives, and there is no country or island in the world where its
use is unknown. It can, she says, be to the new world religion what
the Lord's Prayer has been to Christians and the 23rd Psalm to the
Jews. There is, it seems, not a day

unpublished by her, later published by Besant and Meade in the
falsely titled "Third Volume" of the Secret Doctrine. But there is a
typical Bailey twist to it. The "vestures", of course, were left for
the use of "the Christ", whose reappearance will thus be a sort of
compound of himself and what is left of the Buddha. Naturally, she
does not mention H.P.B. in connection with this legend. The nearest
she comes to mentioning her is in the general reference to

is an illusion. (A tenet practically accepted scientifically since
Einstein.) What Mrs. Bailey misses so egregiously and irrationally is
that on our plane of physical consciousness the illusion of time is a
governing fact that we have to meet. A man dies and vanishes from
sight. He returns, and there is an interval of what we call "time"
between for us, but not for him. He has enjoyed himself in dreams for
centuries, but never thought of time in connection with it; to him it
was an ever-present now. A man sleeps, and goes into the dreamless
state. He wakes without consciousness of time having passed. But he
has to recognize the

though these are quite often centered on some principal fixed idea.
Psychiatrists have quite a time with them. They are quite capable of
imagining a visit such as that of "K.H.," and of coming up later with
a "Djwual Khul" - after learning both these names through
Theosophical associations - to continue the internal drama; and the
whole mess which she made of esoteric philosophy is perfectly in line
with an attempted subconscious fusion of her early pathological,
religious fervor and her interest in the new ideas furnished by
Theosophical literature. Such people are known to write themselves
letters from imagined lovers or great

Oriental complex from doing the same thing with "gifts from India."

manifestations to the same critical sort of scrutiny to which the
Theosophists willingly submitted H.P.B.'s Adyar phenomena?) *

implications made by Cleather and Crump, which suggest the agency of
the "dugpas", "redcaps", "Shammars", "Brothers of the Shadow", "Black
Lodge", etc., etc., all names for the same thing - the Mahatmas'
opposite numbers.

the existence of paranormal powers, and belief in such powers is
becoming quite respectable these days. There is no divine ordinance
to the effect that only benevolent beings can obtain such powers, any
more than there is one forbidding evil people from developing atomic
energy. Hence nobody, whether Theosophist, Baileyite, or outside
investigator of the psychic who is convinced that there are such
powers at all can logically deny the proposition outright. Moreover,
there is a sprinkle of non-occult writers of quite respectable
caliber who claim to have witnessed manifestations of such powers in
Africa, Haiti, and for that matter, Tibet and India.

to H.P.B. - and the Mahatmas - these people work mainly through

Every dogmatic, authoritarian religion, she says, is the degeneration
of a former impulse of the true philosophy; this philosophy, which is
the emancipation of the mind of man from all subservience to the
supernatural, means death to the dugpa cause wherever it is
successful. Hence, aided by the inevitable tendency of the human mind
to degrade, materialize and degenerate to personal ends any supremely
high teaching, the dugpas work as strenuously to abort and frustrate
all such movements as the Mahatmas work to promote them. Therefore we
have here a suggestion alternative to that of the subconscious, of
equal logic and in some ways more evidential; because there is a
dichotomy in Alice Bailey's

the last message of the Mahatmas regarding The Secret Doctrine which
states that the book is in part her own product and in part theirs,
and that as time goes on it will be increasingly necessary to
distinguish between the two categories. Of course the direction and
trend of the Mahatma teaching is directly the opposite of that of the
Bailey "Master's", just as the direction of the Blavatsky mind is the
opposite of the Bailey mind; but the corresponding dichotomy is
there. In other words, whether through subconscious cerebration of
the direction of opposing occult forces, Bailey and Blavatsky

significant. A subject is approachable only through some weakness;

have caused this woman of such mediocre mind to get the idea that she
was the chosen agent of Christ himself? Moreover, consider the
external situation. This was in 1923, when the Messianic craze under
Besant and Leadbeater was building up to a frenzy in terms which
still make many an older Theosophist wince when he reads them now in
cold blood. And poor Alice Bailey was being neglected. An order of
chosen disciples for the then imminent "Coming of the Avatar", was
being built up along the same lines as the "World Servers", and Mrs.
Bailey was somehow being left out of the mainstream, in spite of her
enthusiastic services to the Society. (Her

been properly appreciated.) Hence the voice of "Djwual Khul' must
have fallen from the sky like manna from heaven. She was now all on
her own, with her own "Coming Christ"; presented with a greater
mission than that of H.P.B., and one which wonderfully reconciled her
childhood devotion to the ideal of Christ and her later discovered
affinity for the occult. A fig for the Society and its ingratitude!

> GOD AND PRAYER
>
> Mrs. Bailey makes a huge thing of that nursery school "Invocation."
It is evident that "prayer" is a major heritage of her childhood
conditioning. Well, let us look at this. H.P.B.'s Key to Theosophy
says -
> "Is It Necessary to Pray?
> Enq. Do you believe in prayer, and do you ever pray?
>
> Theo. We do not. We act, instead of talking.
>
> Enq. You do not offer prayers even to the Absolute Principle?
>
> Theo. Why should we? Being well-occupied people, we can hardly
afford to lose time in addressing verbal prayers to a pure
abstraction. The Unknowable is capable of relations only in its parts
to each other, but is non-existent as regards any finite relations.
The visible universe depends for its existence and phenomena on its
mutually acting forms and their laws, not on prayer or prayers.
>
> Enq. Do you not believe at all in the efficacy of prayer?
>
> Theo. Not in prayer taught in so many words and repeated
externally, if by prayer you mean the outward petition to an unknown
God as the addressee, which was inaugurated by the Jews and
popularized by the Pharisees.
>
> Enq. Is there any other kind of prayer?
>
> Theo. Most decidedly; we call it WILL-PRAYER, and it is rather an
internal command than a petition.
>
> Enq. To whom, then, do you pray when you do so?
>
> Theo. To 'our Father in heaven' - in its esoteric meaning.
>
> Enq. Is that different from the one given to it in Theology?
>
> Theo. Entirely so. An Occultist or a Theosophist addresses his
prayer to his Father which is in secret (read, and try to understand,
ch. vi., v.6, Matthew), not to an extra-cosmic and therefore finite
God; and that 'Father' is in man himself.
>
> Enq. Then you make of man a God?
>
> Theo. Please say 'God' and not a God. In our sense, the inner man
is the only God we can have cognizance of. And how can this be
otherwise? Grant us our postulate that God is a universally diffused,
infinite principle, and how can man alone escape from being soaked
through by, and in, the Deity? We call our 'Father in heaven' that
deific essence of which we are cognizant within us, in our heart and
spiritual consciousness, and which has nothing to do with the
anthropomorphic conception we may form of it in our physical brain or
its fancy: 'Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the
spirit of (the absolute) God dwelleth in you?' Yet, let no man
anthropomorphize that essence in us. Let no Theosophist, if he would
hold to divine, not human truth, say that this 'God in Secret'
listens to, or is distinct from, either finite man or the infinite
essence - for all are one. Nor, as just remarked, that a prayer is a
petition. It is a mystery rather; an
> occult process
> --- 44
> by which finite and conditioned thoughts and desires, unable to be
assimilated by the absolute spirit which is unconditioned, are
translated into spiritual wills and the will; such process being
called 'spiritual transmutation.' The intensity of our ardent
aspirations changes prayer into the 'philosopher's stone,' or that
which transmutes lead into pure gold. The only homogeneous essence,
our 'will-prayer' becomes the active or creative force, producing
effects according to cur desire.
>
> Enq. Do you mean to say that prayer is an occult process bringing
about physical results?
>
> Theo. I do. Will-Power becomes a living power. But woe unto those
occultists and Theosophists, who, instead of crushing out the desires
of the lower personal ego or physical man, and saying, addressing
their Higher Spiritual EGO immersed in Atma-Buddhic light, 'Thy will
be done not mine', etc., send up waves of will-power for selfish or
unholy purposes. For this is black magic, abomination, and spiritual
sorcery. Unfortunately, all this is the favourite occupation of our
Christian statesmen and generals, especially when the latter are
sending two armies to murder each other. Both indulge before action
in a bit of such sorcery, by offering respectively prayers to the
same God of Hosts, each entreating his help to cut its enemies'
throats."
>
> Prayer in any other sense than the aspiration of the personal self
for union with its higher, inner self of necessity creates
separateness from that to which the prayer is addressed. It is
something from and to, and these words apply only to separate
entities. What the habit of prayer does, therefore is to set up and
continually reinforce the mental concept of something external and
imaginary, and to block off all possible integration of the
personality with its inner self. Since the personality as such is non-
viable, perishable except in such union, the tendency is toward
ultimate oblivion. Meantime the habit also produces a vitiating
weakness and dependency. People boast of "strength through prayer."
Such strength is no more the man's own strength than is the uplift of
whiskey an attribute of the drunkard's own will. Should the prayerful
man lose his faith he becomes a shattered wreck. Where then was any
power of his own? Why should men be proud of being
> automata; empty shells filled with an outside force, alien and
unearned?
>
> Islam forbids images of Deity and for good reason. The great
struggle of man is to escape the illusionary world of form, into the
arupa planes of reality and conscious union with universal spirit.
Escape is impossible for a mind clogged by the idea that the Ultimate
itself has form, body, parts, attributes and hence limitations.
Graven images are no worse than mental images, perhaps not as bad.
Moreover, the existence of such images in the mind form focal points
of attraction for certain forms of life, the "Star Rishis","Rupa
Devas", or "Mirror Devas" as they are variously called. The last term
is due to their capacity to assume, in the psychic field of
perception, the mirrored subconscious images in the minds of
worshipers, and reflect back as

> from the exterior these images, whether visual or verbal. Hence the
visions of saints and angels and Christs - and "Djwual Khuls". Of all
this the Mahatma said, in the "Prayag Message" - .... "They may have
had influences around them, bad magnetic emanations the result of
drink, Society and promiscuous physical associations (resulting even
from shaking hands with impure men) but all this is physical and
material impediments which with a little effort we could counteract
or even clear away without much detriment to ourselves. Not so with
the magnetism and invisible results proceeding from erroneous and
sincere beliefs. Faith in the Gods and God, and other superstitions
attracts millions of foreign influences, living entities and powerful
agents around them, with which we would have to use more than
ordinary exercise of power to drive them away. We do not choose to do
so. We do not find it either necessary or profitable to lose our time
waging war to the unprogressed

known characters who have lived on earth."

Mahatmas into the path of the Star Rishis are NO THEOSOPHISTS.
