P. Blavatsky that the modern world was first presented with the phrase “The Seven Rays.” It went along with a statement that all things and beings in the world—all forms of mind and matter—arose from combina- tions of seven fundamental impulses. It was maintained that the substance or basis of the whole world—objective and subjective—is “spiritual,” which means, to practical and realistic persons, “something beyond thought.” We know that thought grows up first as the servant of the body, and that it goes on to become the servant of the pleasures of the mind, including the enjoyments of understanding, of affection, of the sense of power, and self-respect.

It shows the dedication, commitment and devotion of the team at his working for publication of The Teachings of Master E.K. Master E.K. is the Morning Star that awakens aspirants into the light of Wisdom and Sanatana Dharma. His teachings spread the presence and also enable the delicate touch of the Master which tends to be a contagion. In this seventh volume five lectures are presented namely - The Seven Rays, Basics of Spiritual Astrology, The Seven Keys, Yoga and Attainment and Yoga and Healing. I have been a witness to the teachings of Master in the West in the years 1981, 1982 and 1983. The Master initiates the talk in a slow and steady manner. Gradually he draws attention of the entire audience through his smiles and gestures. Through looks he enters into them and establishes the Presence. Thereafter the theme is presented in a joyful manner as one-energy prevails in the conference room where the teacher and the students muse.
