Chelas
Meaning "slave" or "servant", Chelas are religious students or disciples; the apprentices to the Adepts.
Chelas are those who earnestly desire to work for the betterment of humankind. The Adepts impart teaching and wisdom otherwise unattainable, and help the Chelas by communion and inspiration.
In Hinduism the Chelas are the Gurus apprentices.

Online since 1995 — at first in a free web space provider (Tripod.com), and in 1997 finally with its own domain name and hosting — Occultopedia still is the principal online resource for those looking for the unexplained, the curious and the unusual. |
