A Painting Delineating the Spiritual Masters
of Mt. Shasta
An "adept" is a high initiate in esoteric philosophy. The
alchemists of old were sometimes referred to as adepts.
Shamans on the path of Light are adepts. "Ascended
Masters," or beings who have reached such a high state
of spiritual evolution that they sacrifice their heavenly
estate to work for the benefit of humanity, are adepts.
Buddhists would call such "Ascended Masters" Bodhi-
sattvas.
This work, executed in a style based on my studies of the
pictographs and petroglyphs of California Native Americans,
presents an intuitive image of a Shaman working with
Light Engergies.
