Re: Theos-World no letters after HPB's death

Dear Katinka,

Your thoughts on this matter seem reasonable to me. After all, the 
Masters guide and help humanity as far as Karma will allow, always 
have and always will. They are our own Higher Selves. Each one of us 
is a part of the Master, His hands and feet on earth, as it were, if 
we will be. So why would we think that the Masters would leave? Where 
would they go? It doesn't make sense to me. They may retreat in some 
sense from the material plane, and there may indeed be cyclic times 
when the Masters are not as active exteriorly as others. But during 
this crisis in the evolution of humanity it seems reasonable to 
assume that the Masters, all the hosts of the Warriors of Light, are 
working all the time to help us humans through the Scylla and 
Charybdis of our our journey. In fact, it might not be the fact that 
the Masters have left us, but rather that we have "left" Them, 
forgotten to notice the mark of Their work all around us all the 
time, forgotten to listen to the Still Small Voice that speaks to us 
of truth and wisdom whenever we will retreat from the outer noise of 
the lower self. And do we remember to complete the cycle of sacrifice 
and devotion shown constantly for our welfare, by offering back 
sincere gratitude to our wise Elder Brothers?

All the best,
Adelasie
