He says: “I am with the bairns on most nights, but not every night, C. generally comes along, but not always, as she, too, has much work to do. She is quite a different person here, and would hardly recognize herself. The body makes much more difference than I ever realized. The brain, by hereditary conditions, alters the personality and nearly all the limitations are due to it. C. does the greater portion of her spiritual and occult work at night. Meditation and study groups are held here, and she belongs to one of them. The members meet before they begin their nightly work;30 the bairns just play about and enjoy themselves...

I always thought I was being guided, but now I know I was, more than I ever realized. No one who loves Them need have the slightest fear in his earth life; They know all Their followers, even though these number many thousands who have been collected during many centuries. One of Them has a school on the inner planes where He and His pupils teach. To this school belong many people, who gain from it the inspiration for their work. All the work done for the cause
