Ascended master - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In Theosophy, and various descendants and offshoots of theosophy, ascended masters are a group of spiritually enlightened beings, once mere mortals, who have undergone a process of spiritual transformation. |
 | | Belief in ascended masters is found among the Theosophists, and among followers of the I AM movement, the Temple of the Presence, and Elizabeth Clare Prophet's Church Universal and Triumphant. |
 | | In some versions of the doctrine, the ascended masters, as a collegiate body, are the "Great White Brotherhood," white referring to advanced spirituality rather than race—very much like "Gandalf the White" after his victory over the Balrog in The Lord of the Rings. |
