Madame Blavatsky (1831-’91) had a special mission ‘to revive the ancient teaching about the existence of a Fraternity of Perfected Souls,’ whom she called ‘The Masters of the Wisdom’. The Masters ‘by special training and self-purification’ have evolved those higher faculties and attained that Spiritual Knowledge which it will take ordinary humanity many incarnations to acquire.
The Masters are ‘Living Men’. They are Super-Men endowed with powers over Space, Time, Mind and Matter. Both in the Occident and in the Orient, the knowledge about Them had sunk into oblivion. Madame Blavatsky revived this knowledge, elucidated Their influence and the ways of Their workings to help humanity. She reestablished the ‘Guruparampara’ and instituted the system of Chelaship. She exhorted that an enlightened faith in Them will make us strong with the power that flows and shall draw us closure to Them.
This knowledge is not a matter of mere academic interest. It will have immense practical value for us in our daily existence. We can take our evolution into our own hands and with the help and assistance of this Raja-Vidya we can turn to transform ourselves into the Atmic-beings. One should assiduously understand her presentations.
