Stand beneath the waterfall and receive unreservedly the flow of the
hierarchy of Aquarius that comes through our embodied messengers.
When the waterfall ceases to flow, move on, for hierarchy will not be
stopped. We will open another stream and prepare a channel for the

Olcott founded the Theosophical Society. They were directed to do so
by two eastern Adepts or Masters, Morya and Koot Hoomi.(1) Besides
its three official objects (1a), the mission of the Theosophical
Society was to prepare the world for the coming of a great spiritual
teacher, expected in the last quarter of the 20th century.(2)
> Annie Besant, Blavatsky's successor as leader of the Theosophical
Society, and Charles Webster Leadbeater, mediator between the Adepts
and the Theosophical Society, were directed to implement this project
fifty years in advance.(3) The young Jiddu Krishnamurti was chosen
and trained to be the vehicle through whom the World Teacher Lord
Maitreya would reveal himself.(4) The Order of the Star in the East
was the worldwide organization to draw together all those who
expected the coming of this great teacher. Krishnamurti became its
Head. Not all Theosophists were in agreement with these developments.
(5) Until about 1927 all went relatively well(6) and starting on
December 28, 1925 Krishnamurti was overshadowed a few times by Lord
Maitreya.(7) Krishnamurti and other Theosophists declared the project
successful,(8) others were of the opposite opinion.(9) From about
1927 on Krishnamurti decided to go his own way and irrevocably
dissociated himself from the project by
> dissolving the Order of the Star on August 3, 1929.
> Through Theosophists Cyril Scott and David Anrias, the Adepts
communicated their evaluation of the project and declared it an
almost complete failure.(10) Krishnamurti caused so much confusion
in the ranks of the Theosophists, that the Theosophical Society was
disqualified as the spearhead of the work of the Adepts.
Nevertheless, some Theosophists, such as C. Jinarajadasa and Geoffrey
Hodson, were still in contact with the Adepts(11), and They kept a
continuing interest in the affairs of the Theosophical Society.(12)
Furthermore the Adepts worked also with Alice Bailey, which was not
successful (13), and with Nicholas and Helena Roerich, which was.(14)
> Three months after Krishnamurti had dissolved the Order of the
Star, the crash on the New York Stock Exchange happened. This event
was the starting point of an unprecedented disastrous sixteen-year-
cycle of economic depression, militarism, fascism and war,
culminating in the Holocaust and the use of the atomic bomb. This
was no coincidence. One of its main causes was the earlier mentioned
confusion amongst many advanced souls. They were not able anymore
to keep the forces of darkness at bay.(15)
> In the summer of 1930, the Adept Saint Germain approached Guy
Ballard, an American mining engineer with an interest in the occult,
with the request to become messenger for the Adepts. Ballard wrote
Unveiled Mysteries under the name Godfre Ray King and founded the "I
AM" Movement.(16) Through Ballard the Adepts gave the revelations
deemed necessary for the Age of Aquarius, which originally were
intended to be given through Krishnamurti.(17) These revelations
included original teachings about mantra yoga, the divine self or the
I AM Presence, and the initiation of the ascension.(18) In the
1930s the "I AM" Movement was very successful.(19) Because of Guy
Ballard's passing in 1939, a string of lawsuits and bad publicity,
the movement experienced a setback. Guy Ballard's wife, Edna Ballard,
succeeded him.
> In 1944 the Adept the Maha Chohan, the chief of El Morya and
Kuthumi, contacted "I AM" member Geraldine Innocente.(20) In April
1952 she founded anonymously the Bridge to Freedom to spread some
teachings by "Thomas Printz," pseudonym for El Morya.(21)
> Mark Prophet, who was associated with the Bridge to Freedom, was
contacted by El Morya in the early 1950s. The Adepts directed him to
found The Summit Lighthouse, which he did on August 8, 1958. This
organization, now also known as Church Universal and Triumphant, has
been a very successful organization in spreading the revelations for
the New Age of Aquarius.(22) Its current head is Elizabeth Clare
Prophet, who was contacted in the spring of 1961 by El Morya to join
The Summit Lighthouse in order to be trained as a messenger.(23) She
became its head in 1973 after the passing of Mark Prophet to whom she
was married.(24) Among her students she is also known as Guru Ma or
just Mother. In 1997 the organization lost its protection from El
Morya (24a) and unfortunately, in late 1998, Prophet was diagnosed
with Alzheimer's disease and soon after stopped transmitting messages
from the Masters.
> Recent offshoots of Church Universal and Triumphant are The
Temple of The Presence founded by Carolyn and Monroe Shearer; Shangra-
la by Kim Michaels; New Wisdom University by Marsha Covington; and
The Hearts Center by David Lewis. All were members of Prophet's
organization and claim to be contacted by the Masters to inaugurate
new Ascended Master organizations. (25)
> The revelations given through the Ballards and the Prophets on
one side, and the philosophy of Krishnamurti (and others) on the
other side might both lead to either the beginning of a
transformation of already existing civilizations like the Judeo-
Christian and the Indic, both of which might be stimulated to new
levels of intellectual and spiritual development, or--and this
probably being the case with Krishnamurti's teachings--to the birth
of a completely new, though deeply flawed, religion and civilization.

Ascension, at the close of the last century, thereby becoming
incorporeal Ascended Masters. And as Blavatsky has written--referring
to other saints, that, when "unburthened of their terrestrial
tabernacles, their freed souls, henceforth united forever with their
spirits, rejoin the whole shining host, which is bound together in
> one spiritual solidarity of thought and deed, and called
the `anointed,' "--the same glad tidings could be told, not only
about these two illustrious Masters, but also about many other brave
souls who followed them. [H.P. Blavatsky, Isis Unveiled (Pasadena CA:
Theosophical University Press, 1976 [1877]), II, p. 159].For
practical purposes the difference between an Unascended Master and an
Ascended one is not very great. Both can work in the physical as well
as in the spiritual realm and both have a wide array of occult powers
at their command to guide Their pupils and help mankind. The
difference is that an Unascended Master has its base of operations in
a physical body and an Ascended Master in a spiritual body. To
dismiss the latter as spooks, because They do not conform to one's
idea of flesh-and-blood Masters, is to deny oneself the great wisdom
coming from the 'anointed' or Ascended Masters. [Blavatsky wrote
about the concept of Nirmanakaya: "As a Nirmanakaya,

retains every other "principle" save the Kamic, for he has crushed
this out for ever from his nature during life, and it can never
resurrect in his post-mortem state. Thus, instead of going into
selfish bliss, he chooses a life of self-sacrifice, an existence
which ends only with the life-cycle, in order to be enabled to help
mankind in an invisible, yet most effective, manner." The Key to

bestow upon you the priceless benediction of His immediate presence
