Note 4 — Mrs. Besant's "return of the Christ."

In these incarnations such names are used as; Mars for the "Master M."; Mercury for the "Master K. H."; Surya, the Lord Maitreya, the present Bodhisattva, the Supreme Teacher of the World"; Sirius for Mr. Leadbeater; Herakles for Mrs. Besant; Alcyone for Krishnamurti; Mizar for his young brother, etc. A list of these names and those to whom they apply is given in the Foreword of the book. [Italics mine. Here we see the bald and unabashed appeal to the personality and its ambitions and desires which is characteristic of this kind of charlatanism.—A. L. C.] We shall here substitute the names of the real persons as given in this list for the fancy names used to distinguish them in the body of the book, Man: Whence, How and Whither.
