Alice Bailey was born on June 16th, 1880 in Manchester, England. She said that being raised in an orthodox Christian family contributed to her unhappy childhood and feelings of suicide with the result she attempted suicide three times before the age of fifteen.





Her first encounter with spirits was remarkably similar to that of Aleister Crowley, them pursuing her first, both being brought up in strict Christian households and both being told they had some grand plan to fulfil. While her family was at church, she saw a man wearing a turban on his head while reading. Muted by her shock, she later described the character as being someone from the 19th century Manchester. She says what he told her in an excerpt of her unfinished biography published in 1951:

“He told me there was some work that it was planned that I could do in the world but that it would entail changing my disposition considerably; I would have to give up being such an unpleasant little girl and must try to get some measure of self-control. My future usefulness to Him and to the world was dependant on how I handled myself and the changes I could manage to make. He said that if I could achieve real self-control I could then be trusted and that I would travel all over the world and visit many countries, “doing your Master’s work all the time” … He added that He would be in touch with me at intervals of seven years apart.”

This was her first contact with her Master Koot Humi.

After divorcing her husband in 1917, she moved to the United States where she first came across the teachings of Theosophy by Helena Blavatsky. She met her second husband, Foster Bailey, then, who was a 33rd degree Scottish Freemason. She progressed through the ranks of Theosophy and soon became the editor of the American Theosophists newspaper.

She encountered her second “master” in 1919 that channelled through her in her writings by automatic writing. She suddenly heard music playing all around her followed by the voice of Djwhal Khul, asking her if she’d like to write some books for him. After turning him down, the voice said he’d return in three weeks to see if she would reconsider. Three weeks on, she did agree to write for him and began the first chapters of Initiation, Human and Solar. However, she was starting to get scared a month into the writings and refused to do anymore work for him. Djwhal Khul told her to consult her first master, Koot Humi. Koot Humi, in turn, confessed to Bailey that it had been him who had sent Djwhal Kul to contact her and gave her permission to continue writing. He proceeded to hone her telepathic communication.

Within her life-time, she produced 24 books, including an autobiography. Nineteen of these books were written by Djwhal Jhul. During these writings, she spent her time formulating “The Plan” as she called it.

Bailey believed that all religions come from the same spiritual source and when humanity realises it, the consciousness of the New Age will ensue. There will be a subsequent new world religion and finally a New World Order. All believers will cooperate with the “Great Plan”, which will be revealed to them by the spiritual leaders of the race.

The leadership shall include various masters, most importantly, a Master Jesus. This Christ is going to be great “Person”, who will emanate the energy love and his return will result in the awakening of that energy in human consciousness. Bailey thought this Christ will be “Sanat Kumara”.

Alice Bailey, along with her husband, Foster Bailey, author of The Spirit of Masonry, established the “Lucifer Publishing Company” in 1920. In 1922, however, it was changed to the “Lucis Trust” to make the Luciferian connotations less conspicuous. It has consultative status with the United Nations having a seat on the weekly sessions. It also disseminates United Nations material.

They went on to establish The Arcane School. It seeks to groom a New Group of World Servers to accomplish the work of the Hierarchy of Masters, “The Christ” being the head. The Arcane School is managed by Lucis Trust as well as World Goodwill. World Goodwill, in turn, is represented at regular briefing sessions at the United Nations in New York and Geneva, being a partner of the United Nations. Several partners of World Goodwill are the United Nations Association, Buddhist Society, New Economics Foundation, World Health Organization, Peace Through Unity, World Wildlife Fund, UNICEF, US Mission of the United Nations, Better World Society (CNN founder Ted Turner), Fellowship and Prayer, Tibetan Buddhist Learning Centre.

I picked out these examples of many to give the reader an idea of the extent to which New Age has infiltrated the world.

Quite startling is the fact that the Lucis Trust used to be situated at 666 United Nations Plaza. It is now currently situated on Wall Street, New York.
