Leadbetter and Mrs. Besant claim to
have traced his history back for thou
sands of years Krishnamurti is merely
the thirty-second name for, according to
the true believer. he has been reincar-
mated already thirty-one times The story
of some Of these past lives have been
told in the Thesophist under the title OF
Riffs In the Veil of Time,'' and very
weird reading they are.
This boy Krishnamurti has been
brought to England for the purpose OF
being educated at Oxford University and
after few years he will be OvershadoW-
ed Or incanopied by the divine spirit OF
to execute his mission as the messiah of
the new cycle Of the worlds history
There is. therefore. about the followers
of Mrs. Besant all the stir and fiutter OF
excitement natural to those who feel
themselves on the eve of new dispense
ton. 1t must be admitted that some OF
the Theosophists do not recognize the
inerrancy of Mrs. Besant messages from
the higher planes. Mr.. sinnett. who may
be regarded in some way as the father
of modern Theosophy. is very skeptical
concerning the coming Of the next race.
Mr.. Sinnett said to me the other day
that he did not deny for a moment that
the boy Krishnamurti was destined to
play considerable part in the spiritual
evolution Of the race, but he doubted
whether Mrs. Besant was right in her
dates.
Indeed. Mr.. Sinnett went so far as to
race as due in 700 years time she was
just trif1e out. The arrival of the race.
according to Mr.. Sinnett, is not due for
about 1OO.OU years. which gives us. the
doomed fifth, little longer. breathing

America to Disappear.
This news is Of even more interest to
Americans than to the dwellers in the
older world. for if the theosophical proph-
cts be true the world is to be prepared
for the coming of the sixth race by
preliminary process of publication which
is brought about by using the Pacific as
a wet broom to sweep the American ma
ton off the face of the world.
Already the Theosophists are hailing
with awe and interest the admissions
made by men of science as to the grad
ual appearance of the peaks of a new
continent in the midst of the Pacific
ocean This continent is already begin
ming to show above the surface of the
ocean. The Bagos Islands are indeed
emerging with such rapidity that one
peak has already reached the height Of
LOCO feet above sea level. In the fire
ring of the Atlantic fifty earthquakes
occur every month. These are regarded
as the preliminary birth throes of the new
continent that Is being prepared as the
home Of the sixth race.
The following passage from the writings
from these eastern seers has a somewhat
apocalytic sound:
The Puranas called the new continent
Snaka and the occult records tell that 1t

tidal waves will split North America into
pieces. and she will sink beneath the
waves, and Shaka will arise. born Of
nre as fire destroyed Lemuria. and yield
new home to new race.
Not Near at Hand.
"Yet need you not share these fears,
for the rising is not SO near at hand, nor
the danger universal. America has still
many centuries of developing life within
her borders ere the great tidal wave our
scientists fear will sweep over her prairies
and dash itself beyond her mountain
crests. 1t is true that great catastrophe
will come.
Humanity has survived the previous
cataclysms. and 1t will survive this, al

lowed up in the wide mouths Of river
CULTS.
The new continent will arise to be the
home of new and greater race, the
coming race the sixth, which shall es-
tablish on earth brotherly civilization"
If these mighty commissions are in the
offing it is obviously matter of con-
siderable importance to all of us whether
Mrs. Besant is right in promising them
in seven centuries, or Mr.. Sinnett, who
postpones them for some hundred thou
sand years In any case, the teachings
of the new divine man, who is supposed
to be lying latent, as 1t were. In the boy
Krishnamurti. will give MS of the fifth
race a chance of saving our souls, even
if we cannot save our continent Accord
ing to the lectures which Mrs. Besant
is now delivering in London, the pre-
dominant note of the new gospel will be
one of unity and brotherhood She says:
All Faiths Are One.
I'm the teaching of the coming prophet
the note will sound out clear and strong
all faiths are one, all world faiths lead
to single goal AS the reflection of the
unity of religions must come the brother
hood of nations. There is only one foun-
