Ageless Wisdom teachings are reported to be as old as humanity itself and come from a group of men known as Masters of Wisdom and Lords of Compassion. These men belong to the spiritual kingdom or the kingdom of God. Ageless wisdom talks about the evolution of consciousness in man and nature. It forms the basis of all known religions. When man is ready these teachings are released in sequence by the disciples of the Masters of Wisdom. These teachers are known as prophets and founded the various religions, philosophies, sciences and arts. There are many other teachers less well known and provided the basis of these teachings and update them from time to time.

In more recent times the first writer on the subject was a woman named Helena Petrovna Blavatsky. She lived in the 19th century and published a few books and established an organisation called the Theosophical Society. She was a Russian but spent most of her life in US. Two of her books were 'Secret Doctrine' and 'Isis unveiled' and they appeared between 1875 and 1890. She spent some time in the Himalayas living with a group of Masters of Wisdom.

In the 20th century there was another writer named Alice A Bailey. She was an English woman but she also lived in the US and wrote about 24 books between 1919 and 1949. About five of these books were her own work and the rest of the books were dictated to her by Master Djwhal Khul usually known Master D K and were published by the Lucis Trust.

Around the same time there was another writer named Helena Roerich. She was also a Russian and wrote a series of books on the same philosophy. They were published by an organisation named Agni Yoga Society between 1924 and 1939.

Another writer along the same line is Benjamin Creme who lives in London, England and travels around the world lecturing about the emergence of Lord Maitrya the Christ and his disciples the Masters of Wisdom to the world.

Most of these books are still in print and you can buy them and they are also available in various libraries. Some of the quotations in my web page come from Alice Bailey's and Benjamin Creme's books. I am a reader of these books and most of the facts I talk about come from these books. Alice Bailey died in 1949. She established an organisation called Arcane school. People can still join the Arcane School and learn about ageless wisdom.

According to Ageless wisdom there are 7 kingdoms in nature. Life first starts in the lowest mineral kingdom composed of sand and rocks. Out of this evolves the next kingdom the plant kingdom. Then came the animal kingdom and next the human kingdom. Above human there are three other kingdoms. The human kingdom or the 4th kingdom is the bridge between the animal kingdom, the third and the spiritual kingdom, the fifth kingdom. The spiritual kingdom is also referred to as kingdom of God, Heaven, Nirvana or Moksha in various religions. Creme's teacher is a member of that kingdom and they are also referred to as angels. Above the spiritual kingdom (5th Kingdom) there are two other kingdoms are known as Hierarchy of Rays and Hierarchy of Lives

The human kingdom along with the spiritual kingdom, and Shamballa form the three major centres in the body of this planet. The human kingdom represents the active intelligence, or the creative aspect (third ray) of God, the spiritual kingdom (the spiritual hierarchy) represents the Love-Wisdom the second aspect (second ray) and the Shamballa represents the first aspect (first ray) or the will of God and has the divine plan for the planet earth. The spiritual hierarchy, the Masters of Wisdom are the custodians of this plan, which is implemented by the hierarchy through their disciples in the human kingdom working in the world. The Lord Maitreya, the Christ, the head and leader of the spiritual kingdom who is now living in London, England is about to start his open work of presenting the divine plan to humanity.

According to Ageless wisdom the humanity is 18 1/2 million years old contrary to scientific view which, puts humanity as 4-6 million years old. There are 60 billion human souls living in the three planes (the three worlds) the physical, astral-emotional and the mental planes of human endeavour and the soul plane. There are about 7 billion humans currently in incarnation in the physical plane. According to Mr Creme out of this population about a million people have taken the first initiation, the birth of Christ, out of this population of million people about 250,000 have taken the second initiation, the baptism. About 2500 have taken the third initiation and about 500 have taken the fourth initiation, the same initiation that Jesus took on the cross.

There are two great laws that control the spiritual progress on earth, the law of rebirth and the law of cause of effect (the law of karma).We are now at the beginning of the Age of Aquarius, which last about 2150 years to 2500 years. Before the end this period about the half of humanity will take the first initiation and take the first step of moving into the spiritual or the fifth Kingdom and gradually create the kingdom of God or the kingdom of souls on earth.

Therefore Creme's teacher is a Master of Wisdom, a member of the fifth kingdom, please read the article on the Masters of Wisdom on my web page. We shall all become Masters of Wisdom one day. Creme has been trained by his Master to communicate by telepathy over a long period of time so that he can fulfil his role effectively as the spokesman for the Master of all Masters, the Lord Maitreya the Christ, teacher of all teachers and the teacher alike of angels and men.

Mr Creme holds public meetings once a month in London, UK and also in other countries from time to time. People who come to his public meetings can freely ask questions from him and he will be quite happy to answer, explain or elaborate on any thing you care to ask him. If he does not know the answer he will say he does not know and then get the answer instantly from his teacher. He tours US about twice a year.
