Initiation into the Brotherhood today is somewhat different than it was in ages past. Long ago the would-be chela was taken to Luxor, Heliopolis, Lhasa or elsewhere and given trials of great endurance involving both physical and spiritual tests.

Today, however, changing times, new methods of communication and transportation, and other factors have altered many old conditions; and new spiritual techniques have been evolved just as material methods have changed.
