THE COMING OF THE
WORLD TEACHER.
At the last week's public meet- ing of the Hongkong Lodge of the Theonphical Society, Mr. H. E, Lanepart gave an addresa on "The Coming of the World Toncher," the recent London address of Dr. Annie Besant, President World T. S. He said in brief: There
is spreading. In all courries, in all the religions of the world, the expectation of the coming of n Grent One, and there are some among us who intensely believe that the coming of this World Teacher in our days is drawing near Glancing into the past we see that the World Teacher has appeared in the Aryan Race on five occasions, each appearance coinciding with the birth of a new branch of the Aryah Root-Race. We find that to each of these new sub-races the World Teacher gave a now religion, being the same basic truth clad in a new form, onch adding something to the heritage of knowledge and culture of humanity as a stimulus for a now civilization. And indeed we find His traces in the past, in the profound divine message contain- ed in all the religions given out by Him Who is the Founder of all the Religions of the world. It was He who proclaimed when He appeared in the West as the Christ:"Other sheep I have which are not of this fold, them also must I bring, and they shall -hear My Voice; and there shall, be one foll, and one,Shepherd." In the Higher World that one fold. that one shepherd are recognised: only here, in our darkness, do we quarrel, belonging to one religion, or to another religión, or to none: and we miss the great Truth that there is but one World-Teacher, and that He looks on "My many faiths" as His, and not another's, And indead we find that the divine messages contained in all and everyone of the religions of the world, past and present, equally lead men to the réalization of the God in man.
The five great religions, given out by the World Teacher, the Lord of the Religions of the World, to the five Aryan subraces, have given mankind priceless divine trutha. We have the im manence of God side by side with the Brotherhood of Man in Hindu- ism, the religion of the Aryan Root- Stork in Central Asia; we see the evolution of science in Egypt, des- cending from the subtler worids | to the knowledge of the world of form, the physical; we see Him
