Mirza Moorad Alee Beg belonged to
the Theosophical Society in its beginnings in India, and when in 1881 the
spiritists expressed their distrust of the existence of the Transhimalayic
Masters, he wrote a letter witnessing that he had contact
with them:
« Further I testify
that I have the strongest conviction, based on reasons which, though
authoritative, are purely natural and physical, that the said “Brothers” are a
mysterious fraternity, the ordinary location of which is the regions north of
the Himalayas.
Having just read in the London Spiritualist
a review of Mr. Sinnett’s book, “The
Occult World,” I find in it more than a doubt expressed as to the reality
of the “Brothers,” that body of mystics to which the personage known as “Koot
Hoomi Lal Singh” belongs.
The Editor of the paper would
have his readers believe that the said person is a creation of Madame
Blavatsky’s fancy. He says:
-
“Mr. Sinnett has
never seen Koot Hoomi, nor does he mention that any other Theosophist in India
has had that privilege.”
As some persons may express the
same doubts, and also some, while admitting their genuine character, may
attribute them to agency other than that to which Madame Blavatsky refers them
(the so-called “Brothers,” etc.).
I hereby declare that not only have I within the last few days seen one of the persons so designated at the Headquarters of the Theosophical Society at Bombay, but that I have very good reasons (which I cannot go into more fully now) to know that the said persons are not “spirits” but real human beings exercising powers out of the ordinary.

Both before and after my connection
with the Theosophical Society I have known and conversed with them personally
and witnessed the most wonderful results (which would ordinarily be described
as miraculous), but I must emphasize my declaration that I do not regard them
as supernatural and am altogether materialistic (or rather naturalistic) in my
conceptions of the agency producing them.
Further I testify that I have the
strongest conviction, based on reasons which, though authoritative, are purely
natural and physical, that the said “Brothers” are a mysterious fraternity, the
ordinary location of which is the regions north of the Himalayas.

And the editor of the magazine "Spiritualist" was wrong in his
statements because Mr. Sinnett did claim to have seen Master Kuthumi, as I detail
it in this other article (link).
And there are also many people who claimed to have had an encounter with
the Masters, both in India and outside India, and I am compiling their narrations
are in this blog and there are already more than 40 witnesses that I have found.
