In this present life <strong>Alcyone</strong> was again born in the south <strong>of</strong> India, and at thirteen years <strong>of</strong> age was brought under the fostering care <strong>of</strong> the President<br />

<strong>of</strong> the Theosophical society. Soon after this the Master admitted him as a probationary pupil, and after only five months (the shortest<br />

probation yet known) passed him on to the second stage--that <strong>of</strong> accepted discipleship. After only a few days in this degree he was received<br />

into the still closer union <strong>of</strong> the third stage, and became a 'son <strong>of</strong> the Master'; and at the same time he took the most important step which an<br />

ego can take, for he 'entered upo the stream'-he attained that first <strong>of</strong> the Great Initiations which not only makes a man safe for ever, but also<br />

admits him as a member <strong>of</strong> the Great White Brotherhood that rules the world. What shall be the future <strong>of</strong> a life which opens thus? The Theosophical<br />

Society may indeed rejoice that it has been counted worthy to receive such an one into its Headquarters.<br />

The faithful Mizar is his younger brother this time, as he has so <strong>of</strong>ten been before. Many <strong>of</strong> those whose names have been mentioned in this<br />

chronicle have gathered round him to help and to be helped; and though in this life but few <strong>of</strong> them are related to one another by cosanguinity<br />

they are drawn together by the far closer tie <strong>of</strong> their common love for Theosophy and for him.<br />
