Are the following two statements exclusive claims??

"The world of force, is the world of Occultism and the only one whither 
the highest initiate goes to probe the secrets of being. Hence no-one 
but such an initiate can know anything of these secrets.... 

Master Koot Hoomi
The Mahatma Letters, 2nd ed., Letter 22

"No doubt, Mrs. [Anna] Kingsford, the gifted author of The Perfect Way, 
is the most competent person in all Europe ? I say it advisedly and 
unhesitatingly ? to reveal the hidden mysteries of real Christianity. 
But, no more than Mr. Sinnett is she an initiate, and cannot, 
therefore, know anything about a doctrine, the real and correct meaning 
of which no amount of natural seership can reveal, as it lies 
altogether beyond the regions accessible to untrained seers...."

H.P. Blavatsky
Collected Writings, Vol. VI, pp. 132-133
