nature. He is the 'adversary', allegorically, the 'murderer', and the great Enemy of all, because
there is nothing in the whole universe that has not two sides... But in that case, light,
goodness, beauty, etc., may be called Satan with as much propriety as the Devil, since they
are the adversaries of darkness, badness, and ugliness." Elsewhere, she neatly sums up:
"Lucifer is divine and terrestrial light, the 'Holy Ghost' and 'Satan', at one and the same time."
(p.513) Interestingly, Blavatsky repeatedly quotes Jewish "Kabalists" who support the idea
that Satan is to be honored as the "cosmic reflection of God". (p.234) [See more under
Kabbalah in the Missionizing section.] However, she dismisses any enlightenment on the part
of the Jews; they merely learned it "from the Chaldeans and Egyptians". (p.240)
In the end (p.513), however, HPB clings to a sort of monotheism of her own: "Satan is the
god ofour planet, and the only god." (p.234, emphasis hers) She also resorts to the same labels
later used by Alice Bailey: "And now it stands proven that Satan, or the Red Fiery Dragon...
and Lucifer, or 'Light-Bearer,' is in us: it is our Mind... the emanation of the very essence of
the pure divine principal Mahat (Intelligence), which radiates direct from the Divine mind."
5. The god who "created" man: Sanat Kumara.
NA messages to the public encourage "faith in the loving Creator" or "thanksgiving to the
Lord of Creation", phrased to allow everyone his own interpretation. For themselves,
however, the Creator is the head of the Hierarchy, known as Sanat Kumara [SK]. He has
other titles as well: "Ancient of Days", "Lord of the World", "Youth of Endless Summers"
and "The One Initiator" (ie, the one who initiates mankind to higher evolutionary levels).
Bailey calls his "Council Chamber" by the term found in the Jewish book of Psalms, "the
secret place of the Most High". (_Education in the New Age_, p.62) SK is credited as the
"founder and initiator of all the most important movements." Bailey claims
(_Externalisation_, p.465) that both Christians and Jews are actually worshiping him in their
attempts to identify "God". [This shows her ignorance of Judaism; even while calling him
"the Most High", she place SK far below the Ultimate God on her charts, automatically
eliminating from him the central attribute of the G-d of Israel. On the other hand, it shows her
intent to deceive, since elsewhere she writes that her "Lord of the World" is "totally
otherwise" compared to the Adon Olam of the Jews - see _Externalisation_, p.551] Although
SK's level of enlightenment earned him the right to enter into "Nirvana", he instead made the
"supreme sacrifice" of turning back to creation and taking the responsibility to create us into
gods. Bailey relates that he "came down" to earth in the middle of the Lemurian age, taking
physical form, and although he later returned to the spirit plane, he "has remained with us ever
since." (_Initiation_, p.28-29) [As we saw above, Bailey disciple Benjamin Creme makes
identical claims for Lucifer, but this is not accidental, as we will see.]
6. The New Age Trinity, or Logos.
Sanat Kumara [SK], Maitreya the Christ [M], and Lucifer [L] are presented to the world as a
trinity. Known as the Planetary Logos, they administer 3 spiritual Energies: respectively,
[SK] Shamballa, the planetary Head, with the principles of Will-Power-Plan; [M] Hierarchy,
the planetary Heart, Love-Wisdom-Unity; and [L] Humanity, the planetary Throat,
Intelligence- Self-Conciousness- Creativity. Elsewhere (p.109) Bailey calls them "The
Departmental Heads... three great Beings", using Hindu terms and assigning to them 3
respective spheres of activity: "Manu" (SK - matter, form, body, not-self; relating to
governments and races), "Bodhisattva" (M- spirit, life, self; realized in religions and beliefs)
and "Mahachohan" (L - intelligence, mind, soul; expressed in science, civilization and
education). Notice that matter is equated with "not-self"; this follows the ancient gnostic idea
that the physical must be destroyed to bring forth the true "self". Bailey affirms that Sanat
Kumara's job is indeed to destroy, using the Shamballa energy, to make room for the new
