<strong>of</strong> wisdom. Vivekananda, the Mother <strong>of</strong> Auroville,Yogananda <strong>of</strong> Kriya Yoga are a few <strong>of</strong> many more whohave manifested the work <strong>of</strong> light. Such is discipleship.It is this loyal sense <strong>of</strong> duty to the <strong>Teacher</strong> that playsa great role in one’s transformation, which in turnenables one to walk further on the path.<strong>The</strong> <strong>Teacher</strong>-student relationship is by far the mostcherished one and the whole Hierarchy is built onthis relation. <strong>The</strong> Hierarchy exists up to the cosmicplane, beginning with the Kumaras and ending withthe disciples who are engaged in the work <strong>of</strong> service.To every member <strong>of</strong> the Hierarchy, the preceding oneis the <strong>Teacher</strong> and the succeeding one is the student.Thus, in a <strong>Teacher</strong> there are two roles; he receivesfrom higher circles and gives it to the lower circles.Even Lord Maitreya, the <strong>World</strong> <strong>Teacher</strong>, receives fromhigher circles, while he holds responsibility <strong>of</strong> beingthe head <strong>of</strong> the Divine <strong>Teacher</strong>s on earth. <strong>The</strong> status <strong>of</strong>a <strong>Teacher</strong> or a Master is conferred on the basis <strong>of</strong> a state<strong>of</strong> be-ness.
