The Masters in charge of the governments on our globe, about whom we know, are either guardians of nations, originators of systems, or distributors of power. The Master Ragoczy is overseer of Europe, though the various Adepts of each race assist Him considerably. The Master Morya helps direct the affairs of Asia. The director at the helm of these United States is called (after our country) the Master “Americus”. His center of power has its unseen outlet over Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.

The Adept called “The Conqueror” has the most strongly developed will power of all the Great Ones interested in governmental affairs. When a nation needs to arouse its capacity for self-defense or self-preservation, this Adept becomes the hidden power behind the country’s transition. At present the Conqueror is over-shadowing China, due to the necessity for this nation to overcome its lethargy. India will be awakened from inertia by the same Director.

A peculiar duty is that of the Master Azabar who is in charge of monetary and credit systems throughout this world. Thus far, all mediums of exchange are of experimental origin. This adept plans to inspire a system of exchange that will not engender the dangers of selfishness and monopoly of former systems. His plan cannot be executed until humanity admits a need for an improved method of exchange.

The best known Masters dedicated to the field of education are the Master Djwal Kul (also called The Tibetan), the Master Kuthumi, and the Master Elision. The Tibetan has charge of “organized thought,” or established wisdoms and customs that need to be more thoroughly understood by the masses. The Master Kuthumi is devoted to the reception and spiritual radiation of the higher knowledge and trainings that are emanated in thought forms around this globe for sensitive minds or spirits to discern and utilize. The Master Elision is a woman of unusual attainment. She instructs persons who are to be sent into physical life as envoys with a particular message. Because of Her patient, serene instruction, new world movements or crusades are implanted in the fertile consciousness of souls preparing to incarnate. This imposing, beautiful Adept is sometimes contacted by Her pupils in the fifth dimension. Should these representatives forget their purpose, this Adept causes them to have an impressive dream or a spiritual vision which reawakens them to an awareness of their missions. Though there are many Adepts directing the investigations and enlightenments of science, the One best known to pupils who are in contact with Masters is the Master Hilarion. He remains closely in touch with our world to encourage and inspire, by thought, those individuals who labor to create the tools of progress. Two of the common subjects now occupying the concentration and efforts of the Master Hilarion are the cure of cancer and the wider expansion of the use of radio and television.

On the path of religion are the Lord Christ Jesus, the Promised Prince, the Master John, and the Master Quan Yin. The Master Jesus is the ruler of the spiritual impetus that is causing the inner awakenment of this humanity to an appreciation of eternal values. We have only been touched by the fringe of His influence, yet in this century alone the majority of those who love God have forsaken bigotry and intolerance for sincerity and tolerance. Under this Lord’s guidance humanity will undergo many changes which will bring about an open-mindedness necessary for the awakenment of the spiritual powers in us. The Lord Christ is the One in whose keeping our spiritual welfare lies. With His assistant Masters, this Anointed One, who was recently Jesus the Galilean, is endeavoring to enlighten humanity, as well as to train living pupils for use in His Cause. Besides these services, His is the radiant Light which floods the inner worlds with a continuous stream of illumination and love.

The youthful Promised Prince, when seen, appears much like an artist’s dream of the Boy Christ. This remarkable Adept has a merciful assignment—that of bringing about Divine intervention wherever it is merited. He is frequently felt, if not inwardly perceived, in those communities, cities or homes where tragedy stalks. When Adepts cannot avert wars, pestilence or violence caused by humanity’s overpowering destructive thoughts, They influence us during the readjustments that follow chaos. The Promised Prince gives vision, courage, peace and gratitude to those whom His aura touches. In His presence children are happier, sweeter and more affectionate. We wonder what cause prompted this Adept to “spend His heaven doing good on Earth”. Our world is better for His ministry, and richer too, in spiritual contentment.

A great similarity exists between the Lord Christ and His beloved disciple, who is now an Adept, the Master John. The resemblance is more of an inner likeness than an outer one. The Lord Jesus has dark bronze-colored hair, deep brown eyes, and is dignified in bearing. The Master John has honey-colored hair, blue eyes and seems boyish despite His attainment. Yet artists have confused these Great Men, and upon their canvases have put titles pertaining to the Christ, when in reality their painting was that of the Master John. A deep bond of eternal friendship between these two Anointed ones has engraved upon the character of the younger Master something of the transcendent beauty of His Lord.

The Master John accepts earnest seekers of reality as candidates to be prepared for world service. The progress of the neophyte causes them to be a probationer, then a disciple, and later a pupil of Masters. During these stages of inner advancement, the aspirant may experience one or several spiritual illuminations, after which he is not only a conscious servant of Adepts, but also an initiate progressing toward Mastership. “The Holy One,” as the Master John is sometimes called, educates every sincere seeker in the science of spiritual self-mastery. This Adept emphasizes that character development is is the first requisite essential to higher mental and spiritual achievement. After disciples have gained self-knowledge and an honest attitude toward life, they are next enlightened as to how they may exercise the principle called faith, to free themselves from limitations in all departments of their experience. This develops one’s inner powers in healing, as well as in the constructive acquirement of those qualities which attract love, trust joy, prosperity and success. These forces remain as blessings only with those who share them with as many persons as they can enfold. The disciple ever realizes that “ceasing to share, we cease to have, for such is the law of love”.

The improvement of the aspirant’s efforts, realizations, and successes fits them for the more difficult feats of inner unfoldment, which the Master John discloses to those worthy of further tuition. The Master John teaches that we are not in full possession of all our God-given senses. In the right season we are led to learn of the sixth and seventh senses which have their center in the realm of our spiritual being. The sixth sense records impressions that belong to octaves of light, sound and being beyond the third dimensional existence. The Great One believes “intuition,” “clairvoyance” and “clairaudience” are terms that have been profaned by improper use, yet when truly understood, they are functions of humanity’s innate sixth sense. The seventh sense is the faculty which permits the soul to withdraw from the physical body during sleep. It likewise functions whenever the Masters deem it advisable for conscious pupils to attend some inner conference, or take some inner initiatory work.

The Master John is but one of numerous Adepts who accept pupils. Others taking religious pupils, who are best known, are the Masters Lao-Tse, Amiel, Dratzel, Athena, Mohammed and the late Rama Krishna. The Adepts teach those under Their charge the principles which all Masters give to those who are sincere seekers. Yet, it must be remembered that all these spiritual conquerors are united by one endeavor—that of disseminating the radiance and principles of the Christ Spirit. This does not mean the doctrine the Christ Jesus gave in Palestine. The principles of the Lord Christ are far greater, vaster and deeper than those recorded in the Bible. To the fullness of the Christ message are these learned Masters avowed.
