The Masters Who Guided Helena Blavatsky

6.

Excerpts From Mahatma Letters to A.P.Sinnett

The following are chosen at random without any comments, with the hope that some perspective will emerge gradually and some light may be thrown on the Masters and their thoughts.

1)      From Section 1: The Occult World Series:1880-81:Letter No. 1:Received SimlaOct15th,1880

On what was called ‘phenomenon’ in those days:

“Very true, we work by natural, not supernatural means and laws. But as on the one hand Science would find itself unable (in its present state) to account for the wonders given in its name, and on the other the ignorant masses would still be left to view the phenomenon in the light of a miracle, everyone who would thus be made a witness to the occurrence would be thrown off his balance and the results would be deplorable. Believe me, it would be so—especially for yourself who originated the idea, and the devoted woman who so foolishly rushes into the wide open door leading to notoriety. This door, though opened by so friendly a hand as yours, would prove very soon a trap—and a fatal one indeed for her. And such is not surely your object?”

2)From Miscellaneous Letters:Letter No.98:

On Tibet and Civilization

For centuries we have had in Tibet a moral, pure hearted , simple people, unblest with civilization, hence –untainted by its vices. For ages has been Tibet the last corner of the globe not so entirely corrupted as to preclude the mingling together of the two atmospheres—the physical and the spiritual. And he (Mr. A. O. Hume) would have us exchange this for ‘his’ ideal of civilization and Govt.! This is pure self peroration!...

Now really, Mr. H. ought to be sent by an international Committee of Philanthropists, as a Friend of Perishing Humanity to teach our Dalai Lamas—wisdom. Why he does not straight-way sit down and frame a plan for something like Plato’s Ideal Republic with a new scheme for everything under the Sun and moon—passes my poor comprehension!......

In less than 24 hours he would paralyse any one of us (Brothers) who might be unfortunate enough to come within a mile of him merely by his monotonous piping about his own views…Such men as he make able statesmen, orators, anything you like but—never Adepts.
