Radiant School of Seekers and Servers

The Radiant School of Seekers and Servers was one of a number of occult groups drawn to Mount Shasta, the prominent mountain in northern California. Founded by Kenneth Wheeler in 1963, the original small group moved some years later to the village of Mount Shasta, at the base of the mountain. The school was a channeling group through whom "Phylos the Tibetan" spoke. "Phylos" is a disembodied entity who is claimed to have first spoken in the 1890s through Frederick Spencer Oliver. These channelings were collected and published in a book, A Dweller on Two Planets (1899). A second volume reported to be by "Phylos" appeared in 1940 as An Earth Dweller Returns and was channeled through one of the founders of the Lemurian Fellowship. In the 1960s "Phylos" began to speak again, and the material became the basis of the regular mailings sent to the supporters of the Radiant School.

The school taught a message of personal development in line with humanity's ultimate life pattern, which in turn is in line with God's universal plan. All people are expected to unfold their patterns in full. During our various lives on Earth, we are allowed to meet again all those we have previously interfered with and thus created karma (consequences). The divine plan assumes the right to health, happiness, and prosperity.

The school existed for several decades but disbanded in the early 1980s.
