Association with the Masters

When we associate with the Masters, we come under their influence. They talk of our latent strength, of our spiritual origin, of our Kingdom in Heaven, point out the way within us of going back to our eternal spiritual home – not merely point the way and ask us to go alone, but go with us all the way and further, put us under no obligation, and charge no fee. Could there be a better offer?

Masters in the flesh are rare.…They are universal although outwardly they appear as individuals like others. When in the flesh they speak to us of other superior worlds and the Creator, and of our aim in life. To strengthen our belief, they place before us the writings of the past Masters as authority, and induce us, in all rational ways, to experiment and investigate.

Man learns of the universal from a man universalized – a Master.… To follow a Master means practising the Word – catching the sound current from the eye centre and riding on that. Only a living Master can give us the Word.…

Saints are love personified, and they love not only their disciples but all creation and all around them. They look upon the whole creation with love and kindness.…

The Radiant Form of the Master may seem to be far away like the Evening Star of Wagner’s opera, but still it is within you. It is not far away. There is a veil between you and it, and it will be torn by your labour of love.
