I am sincerely pleased my "pupil" that you should write to me as agreed — whether you have — or have not — any special question to put to me. — It is impossible under your present health conditions that you should bring back to your physical brain the consciousness of higher planes of existence, yet remember, that the sense of magnetic refreshment is no true measure of spiritual benefit, and you may even attain greater spiritual progress whilst your psychic development appears to stand still.

"Deva" is a word too indiscriminately used in Eastern writings, and is at times merely a blind.

The Real Knowledge here spoken of is not a mental but a spiritual state, implying full

verses quoted is refered to "Isa Upanishad" (verses 9-14); see F. Max Muller "The Sacred Books of the East. The Upanishads", vol. I, 1879, pp.312-313

union between the Knower and the Known.

I hope that these brief replies may throw all the light you needed upon these points.

With sincere good-will,

Yours truly, K. H.
