+But all souls are not illuminated souls, or even awakened souls.

Many of such attain great mental powers in such belief, through devoting their powers solely to material ends. Such who are wholly selfish usually develop into what are known as “black magicians.” But such magicians are Master Minds.

Such are admittedly Master Minds, and can be called illuminated minds; and if the personality has been completely mastered, are known as “white magicians,” in contradistinction to the selfish Master Minds above described.
