The gift of Being andExternalisation, 285:PROGRESS OF THE RACE The Doctrine of Avatars May 1941 As we enter the momentous month of May thisExternalisation, 286:and human need is to be found in the doctrine of Avatars, and in the continuity of divineExternalisation, 286:time and age; it appears in the doctrine of the Avatars of the Hindu faith, in the teaching of theExternalisation, 286:of the ancient myths, the World Saviors and the Avatars bear witness and are the guarantee.

These two are: Those Avatars Who are the embodiment of the Angel of theExternalisation, 293:Being, or an Expression of Cosmic Good. Those Avatars who are embodiments of the Dweller on theExternalisation, 294:limitations and evil habits. So [294] do those Avatars Who from time to time appear as theExternalisation, 294:Again, a correspondence to the Doctrine of Avatars can be seen in the disciple's individual life.Externalisation, 296:will be done? Between the Source from which all Avatars come forth [297] and humanity, stands theExternalisation, 297:the Evolutionary Process The Appearance of Avatars Since the year 1400 (a date to which I referredExternalisation, 297:there have been constant appearances of lesser avatars, called forth in response to minor crises,Externalisation, 297:into four relatively minor groups: 1.

These manifestations of divinity appear atExternalisation, 299:still higher on the evolutionary ladder. These Avatars issue forth in response to demand and areExternalisation, 299:the stimulation of humanity as a whole.

They were not only human-divine Avatars, and hence able to link humanity with theExternalisation, 300:disciples. I have considered some of these Avatars in my earlier writings under different names andExternalisation, 300:public with the teaching on the doctrine of Avatars or of divine Appearances. The Bible is full ofExternalisation, 301:of Avatar, greater than the other four. These Avatars have not, in this world cycle, experiencedExternalisation, 301:human life. 5. Divine Embodiments.
