50 LIGHT ON THE P.TH any eacher. Until the four rules a learned no teacher can be of any use him; and that is why "the Masters" a referred to in the way they are. No re Masters, whether Adepts in power, in lo or in blackness, can affect a man till the four rules are passed.
Tears, as I have said, may be called t moisture of life. The soul must have li aside the ethotions of humanity, must ha secured a balance which cannot be shak by misfortune, before its eyes can op upon the super-human world.
The voice of the Masters is always the world; but only those hear it whi ears are no longer receptive of the sout which affect the personal life. Laugh ‘no longer lightens the heart, anger may longer enrage it, tender words hring it balm. For that within, to which the e are as an outer gateway, is an unshal place of peace in itself which na per can disturb.
