“Hear (…) the old, old axiom that ‘Ideas rule the world;’ and as men’s minds receive new ideas, laying aside the old and effete the world will advance; mighty revolutions will spring from them; institutions (aye, and even creeds and powers, they may add) — WILL crumble before their onward march crushed by their own inherent force (…) It will be just as impossible to resist their influence when the time comes as to stay the progress of the tide, — to be sure.” (K.H. In T. Baker, editor. The Mahatma Letters to A.P. Sinnett, n. 93, p. 425; emphasis added)
