The Wisdom contained in the pub- lished letters of the Masters is not merely for those to whom they were addressed but also for all those seeking to tread the Path of Holiness along the line of Devotion.

Glimpses of that Wisdom can be had through the extracts incorporated by the author into Daily Meditations. She has selected passages suitable to be meditated upon one each for every day of the year. They are arranged as twelve virtues, with one quality assigned for each month, namely Unselfishness, Compassion, Truth, Devotion, Purity, Sympathy, Courage, Intuition, Toler- ance, Self-reliance, Equilibrium, and Perseverance.

Katherine A. Beechey was a long-standing member of the Theosophical Society. Coming from England, she lived and worked at the International Headquarters at Adyar for many years. In addition to being in charge of the Archives from 1953, she was the first editor of the quarterly Adyar Newsletter when it started in 1961. In 1964 she was appointed the Recording Secretary (now called International Secretary) and served in that capacity for several years. Her Daily Meditations has been translated into many other languages.

All who have studied the published letters of the Masters of the Wisdom must have realized that the hints and instructions given in them have much more general application than to the specific persons and pupils to whom they were addressed. In making the following selection of extracts from the Letters, I sought first of all to use them for purposes of my own meditation. Then came the desire to share them with a friend. And I am glad now to have the opportunity of widening my circle of friendship that I may share them with all who are seeking to tread the Path of Holiness along the line of devotion to the Masters of the Wisdom.
