"The teaching planned by the Hierarchy to precede and condition the New Age, the Aquarian Age, falls into three categories: 1. Preparatory, given 1875-1890, written down by H.Blavatsky. 2. Intermediate, given 1919-1949, written down by Alice A. Bailey. 3. Revelatory, emerging after 1975 to be given on a worldwide scale via the radio. In the next century and early in the century an initiate will appear and will carry on this teaching. It will be under the same "impression", for my task is not yet completed and this series of bridging treatises between the material knowledge of man and the science of the initiates has still another phase to run. The remainder of this century, as I told you elsewhere (Destiny of the Nations, page 106), must be dedicated to rebuilding the shrine of man's living, to reconstructing the form of humanity's life, to reconstituting the new civilisation upon the foundations of the old, and to the reorganising of the structures of world thought, world politics, plus the redistribution of the world's resources in conformity to divine purpose. Then and only then will it be possible to carry the revelation further". The Master Djwhal Khul through Alice A. Bailey "Rays and The Initiations", page 255] During these years of preparation for the externalisation of the ashrams and the reappearance of the Christ the Master Djwhal Khul (head of one of the subsidiary ashrams within the major second ray Ashram of the Master Koot Hoomi) accepted responsibility for presenting a sequence of three interpretations of the Ageless Wisdom teaching intended "to precede and condition the New Age". He has also undertaken the task of training for discipleship a large group of aspirants associated with the various ray ashrams.
