Salway, Secretary, Flat 1, Lee House, 75a Effra Road, London SW19 8PS. 2nd March, 2013.. If you would like to attend Colum’s Talk, entitled: “Francis Bacon and The Masters” ~ please detach and return the slip to the Secretary. Colum Hayward, Esoterically, Francis Bacon is identified with the Master ‘R’ and thus with Rosicrucians of his time and Theosophists since. What are the assumptions behind such a statement? Colum’s talk is about the welltravelled concept of the Masters, their supposed Himalayan abode, how they might work with humanity, and of the nature of Cosmic Plans. There’s an ‘introductory’ element to the talk, but it also leads to conclusions that have important bearings on life today. Could we, as well as Bacon, receive our directions from a great and distant source? Colum’s background is in the White Eagle Lodge but he has recently written an extended preface to Asia Mysteriosa, an extraordinary esoteric work of the 1930s which concerned a mathematical oracle. The oracle was claimed to serve as a transmission point for the Masters, and demonstrates how communication with them might be achieved. Colum has also written the meditation lifestyle (2012), eyes of the spirit (1998) and a number of shorter works. He is the grandson of Grace Cooke, White Eagle’s medium, who herself gave great encouragement to the FBS in the days of Hope Brameld and others. Refreshments will be provided (tea, cakes and biscuits). No charge. Application forms to join the Society will be available.
