>her untiring devotion of work for others - all

>archaic wisdom she derives her own, the plans which
>she is carrying out are Their plans for the welfare

>HONOUR IT IS FOR YOU that you should be permitted
>to work under her, for in doing so you are virtually
>working under Them. THINK HOW WATCHFUL YOU SHOULD
>BE TO MISS NO HINT WHICH FALLS FROM HER LIPS, to carry
>out EXACTLY whatever instructions she may give to you.

>Remember...there will be times when you cannot

>many things which you cannot see and of which
>she must not tell you. BUT WHETHER YOU UNDERSTAND
>OR NOT, YOU WILL BE WISE TO FOLLOW HER IMPLICITLY, JUST
>BECAUSE SHE KNOWS.

>THIS IS NOT MERE SUPPOSITION ON MY PART, NO MERE
>FLIGHT OF THE IMAGINATION; I HAVE STOOD BESIDE YOUR
>PRESIDENT IN THE PRESENCE OF THE SUPREME DIRECTOR
>OF EVOLUTION ON THIS GLOBE, AND I KNOW WHEREOF I
>SPEAK. Let the wise hear my words, and act accordingly."
>Caps added. Adyar Album, p. 45.

>Mrs. Besant wrote the following about CWL:
>-----------------------------------
>"By hard, patient work he [C.W. Leadbeater] has won
>rewards . . . until he stands perhaps the MOST TRUSTED of his
>Master's disciples ON THE THRESHOLD OF DIVINITY."
>[The Theosophist, November 1911, p. 308 Caps added.]

>Mrs. Besant later said:
>----------------------------------------------------------
>"And now I have to give you, by command of the King, His message,
>and some of the messages of the Lord Maitreya and His great
>Brothers. . . what I am saying, as to matter of announcement, is
>definitely at the command of the King whom I serve.
>
>His taking possession of His chosen vehicle . . . will be soon.
>Then He will choose, as before, His twelve apostles . . . and their

>the command to mention seven who have reached the stage of Arhatship,
>Who were the 'Arhats'?
>
>The first two, my brother Charles Leadbeater and myself, . . . C.
>Jinarajadasa, . . . George Arundale, Oscar Kollerstrom, . . . Rukmini
>Arundale....

>I left out one and must leave out another. Naturally, our
>Krishnaji [Jiddu Krishnamurti] was one, but he is to be the vehicle

>crucifixion before the seal of Arhatship was set upon him by his King.
>Those are the first seven of the twelve whom He has chosen, with
>Himself as the thirteenth. 'Ye call me Master and Lord, and ye do
>well, for so I am.'

>Now the wonder may come into your mind: H.P.B. was the only one
