Heindel was a Rosicruxian.

Max Heindel received the impetus for his tour de force, the Cosmo 
Conception, from Steiner and was the master he spoke about meeting 
while in Germany and maintained contact with on the higher planes 
when he was stateside. The Cosmo is western and christian-centric in 
flavor and terminology where the SD was based on eastern thoughtforms.

Steiner was in contact with the Elder Brothers who are the western 
counterpart if not the same as HPBs Tibetan mahatmas. Steiner also 
introduced Heindel to this cabal and Max might be seen as tasked much 
the same as HPB was but his task was for disseminating the ancient 
wisdom to the Western mind.
