About this
matter the United Lodge of Theosophists commented as follows:
« There are only two
instances mentioned in her biography in which she apparently met the Masters in
person.
First, by her own admission, she
saw them in London in 1920 in a crowd of Indian delegates and “she was unpleasantly
surprised by the way they looked at her and did not recognize them.”
The next time was in India, or
rather Sikkim, when they met and received the famous “Message from Mahatmas” to
Communists, along with some soil from the Eastern “Holy Land” to sprinkle on
the grave of Lenin, or “Mahatma Lenin” as he is called in the Agni Yoga books,
which state that he today resides at Shambhala.
The original of the document
cannot be found in order to see the handwriting; only the text, praising the
achievements of Communists.
After the Roerichs moved to live
in India, in the valley of Kulu, they never again claimed to have met the
Master Morya in his physical or astral body, nor did anyone amongst their
colleagues or associates make such an assertion. These are the known facts. »
OBSERVATIONS
In the first
case, I still can't find the document where Helena Roerich affirms that she met
the Theosophical Masters in person in 1920 in London, but surely she did affirm
this asseveration since this supposed encounter is well known by the Roerichs students.
For example, Sina Fosdick, who was one of their most devoted followers, wrote:
-
"In London there
was the unexpected physical encounter of Helena Roerich with two
Mahatmas." (id.)
But the most
certain thing is that this supposed encounter was a lie invented by Helena
Roerich because the Theosophical Masters explained that in the first three
quarters of each century they must remain hidden from the people.
As Master
Kuthumi pointed out:
"If, for generations
we have ‘shut out the world from the Knowledge of our Knowledge,’ it is on
account of its absolute unfitness; and if, notwithstanding proofs given, it
still refuses yielding to evidence, then will we at the End of this cycle
retire into solitude and our kingdom of silence once more." (ML 9, p.50)
So it does
not make any sense that the Theosophical Masters were in London in 1920 in a
crowd of Indian delegates, as Helena Roerich affirmed, when Master Kuthumi
himself specified that after the year 1900 and until the year 1975, he and the
members of his Brotherhood would once again withdraw from any contact with
people.
In the
second case, what I have discovered is that there was no physical meeting, but
through spiritist sessions, the master of the Roerichs dictated two letters for
the Russian communists and Helena Roerich wrote them in her personal notebooks.
These
letters appear in the séances that the Roerichs held on November 30, 1925 and
April 5, 1926. But it must be specified that it was not Master Morya who
dictated these letters, but an astral entity trickster.

In conclusion, the Roerichs never had real encounters
with the Theosophical Masters.
