Felkin was notable as a physician, a missionary, an Anglican, a magician and a Baha’i. The purpose of this paper is to examine his life and work in the context of his search for Ascended Masters and the multiplicity of identities and roles he assumed. %U https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/bsr.18.1.95_1
