In the 1880s Master K.H. gave the following assessment
of the variety of seers and psychics then current
in England and elsewhere:

"Vainly do your modern seers and their prophetesses, creep into every 
cleft and crevice without outlet or continuity they chance to see; 
and still more vainly, when once within do they lift up their voices 
and loudly cry: 'Eureka! We have gotten a Revelation from the Lord!' -
 - for verily have they nothing of the kind. They have disturbed but 
bats [elementals, unprogressed Planetaries?], less blind than their 
intruders; who, feeling them flying about, mistake them as often for 
angels ? as they too, have wings! Doubt not, my friend: it is but 
from the very top of those 'adamantine rocks' of ours, not at their 
foot, that one is ever enabled to perceive the whole Truth, by 
embracing the whole limitless horizon...."  The Mahatma Letters, 2nd 
ed., Letter 48 

Certainly with the passing of the decades and the 
increasing "popularity" of Theosophical teachings and claims, the 
same sort of assessment might be similarly made about the multitude 
of people claiming to be in contact with the Masters K.H. and M.

Eureka!  We have gotten a Revelation from the Masters!!

but did this motley crowd of "seers", etc. actually contact the 
Masters or where they simply in contact with "bats"???
