“At Whitsuntide the brethren drew together in one accord, in love. They raised their consciousness to the heavenly life, to the light; and as they waited, and the light poured down into their hearts, they were filled with the spirit. The Great White Brotherhood consists of the souls of men and women who have consciously received this outpouring from the Son of God, from the great white light.”

“We want you to think of Whitsun as a time of renewed brotherhood. This gathering together of men and women in one spirit, with one accord, was part of the religion of the God-men who came to earth in the beginning to help the young humanity to find the way of truth, to find the way to God. Man today will have to learn to come into harmony with natural law, and with spiritual law, which is simply the law of love, the law which says: ‘give love’.”
