The whole universe with all its laws is subject to the supreme Law of Truth. It is ever being administered impersonally as well as through the spiritual Hierarchy. To the superficial observer, it may seem that there is no reign of Truth in the universe. The truth does reign and reigns unceasingly and unfailingly. Even the insignificant business concerns and other private and public institutions have their laws and cannot function without laws. Much more so is it true of the universe. This vast universe, with all the multitudinous occurrences within it, is subject to some self-justifying law. Sometimes, it does appear as if sincere toil is lost or the virtuous are condemned to suffering and the vicious are enthroned with power or endowed with success. But all this is either a fractional view of the realities or an illusion in the garb of judgment.

 

To one who can take a complete and unclouded view of events, the inexorable reign of Truth in all happenings, great or small, individual or collective, is a clear and unchallengeable fact. The reign of Truth may be described in different ways as the Law of God or the Law of Justice or the Law of Karma.

Their plans for the world are made far in advance of the times, sometimes centuries before the time when they are intended to be executed. They dwell in eternity; and they have in their view, the past, the present and the future. They are the custodians of God's process of self-fulfillment working itself out through the march of the variegated incidents in time.

 

The co-operative and organized working of the Perfect Masters expresses itself through the functioning of the Spiritual Hierarchy. The Masters, being one with the supreme Godhead, convey the Divine Will and Impulse to the advanced souls, Maha-Yogis or Pirs of the mental world. The advanced souls catch the impulse originating in the shoreless Truth and pass it on from the mental world to those who control the subtle world. In the gross world, it may manifest itself
