C. W. Leadbeater
Invisible Helpers by Charles Webster Leadbeater looks at examples of 'invisible helpers' coming to the aid of those in danger. 'In his book Invisible Helpers Leadbeater recounts numerous cases of people in distress who have been 'miraculously' saved or helped by mysterious beings mistaken for 'angels' but who were actually living people who were able consciously to assist others while they are in their astral bodies and their physical bodies are asleep. In many of the accounts, he referred to these as the 'band of helpers' who were disciples of ADEPTS and who had the capacity to help even when out of their bodies. Leadbeater outlines the notion that there is a universal belief in spiritual assistance in times of need, from superphysical reality. He also considers what lies in the beyond for us all.
