teachings underlying the Hindu Philosophies, and shall now pass on to a
consideration and presentation of the great Mystic Principles underlying
that great and glorious creed of the Western world—the religion, teachings,
and philosophy of Jesus the Christ. These teachings, too, as we should
remember, are essentially Eastern in their origin, and source, although
their effects are more pronounced in the Western world. Underlying the
teaching and philosophy of the Christ are to be found the same esoteric
principles that underlie the other great systems of philosophies of the East.
Covered up though the Truth be by the additions of the Western churches
and sects, still it remains there burning brightly as ever, and plainly visible
to one who will brush aside the rubbish surrounding the Sacred Flame and
who will seek beneath the forms and non-essentials for the Mystic Truths
underlying Christianity.
We realize the importance of the work before us, but we shrink not from
the task, for we know that when the bright Light of the Spirit, which is found
as the centre of the Christian philosophy, is uncovered, there will be great
rejoicing from the many who while believing in and realizing the value of the
Eastern Teachings, still rightly hold their love, devotion and admiration for
Him who was in very Truth the Son of God, and whose mission was to raise
the World spiritually from the material quagmire into which it was stumbling.
And now, dear pupils, we must close this series of lessons on the Yogi
Philosophy. We must rest ere we so soon engage upon our new and great
work. We must each take a little rest, ere we meet again on The Path of
Attainment. Each of these temporary partings are milestones upon our
Journey of Spiritual Life. Let each find us farther advanced.
And now we send you our wishes of Peace. May The Peace be with you all,
now and forever, even unto Nirvana, which is Peace itself.
