Masters and Adepts. Above
them come the Great
Hierarchies of the Angelic
Hosts, unthinkable to man
and above those come
those who may without
irreverence be called "The
Gods" so high in the scale
of Being are they, their
being, intelligence and
power being akin to those
attributed by the races of
men to their conceptions of
Deity. These Beings are
beyond even the highest
flights of the human
imagination, the word
"Divine" being the only one
applicable to them. Many of
these Beings, as well as the
Angelic Host, take the
greatest interest in the
affairs of the Universe and
play an important part in
its affairs. These Unseen
Divinities and Angelic
Helpers extend their
influence freely and
powerfully, in the process
of Evolution and Cosmic
Progress. Their occasional
intervention and assistance
in human affairs have led
to the many legends,
beliefs, religions and
traditions of the race, past

and present. They have
superimposed their
knowledge and power upon
the world, again and again,
all under the Law of THE
ALL, of course.

But, yet, even the highest
of these advanced Beings
exist merely as creations of
and in, the Mind of THE
ALL and are subject to the
Cosmic Processes and
Universal Laws. They are
still Mortal. We may call
them “lords” if we like, but
still they are but the Elder
Brethren of the Race, the
advanced souls who have
outstripped their brethren
