In the 20th century, Theosophy was further developed by Annie Besant and Charles Webster Leadbeater, while people like Alice Bailey, Rudolf Steiner and many others, became the source for a whole range of post-theosophical movements such as The Summit Lighthouse.

Leadbeater, Rudolf Steiner, Alice Bailey, and Benjamin Creme, each of whom went into huge detail in constructing baroque cycles of rounds, races, and sub-races.

According to the post-1900 publications of Theosophy, i. e. the writings of C. W. Leadbeater, Alice A. Bailey, and Benjamin Creme, as well as the Ascended Master Teachings of Guy Ballard, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Geraldine Innocente, Joshua David Stone, and other Ascended Master Teachings teachers, Sanat Kumara is an " advanced being " at the ninth level of initiation who is regarded as the Lord or Regent of Earth and of humanity, and the head of the Spiritual Hierarchy of Earth who dwells in Shamballah, a city said by Theosophists and those adherent to the Ascended Master Teachings to be a floating city the on the etheric plane above the Gobi Desert.

Leadbeater and later adherents of Theosophy such as Alice A. Bailey believe that Sanat Kumara came to Earth 18, 500, 000 years ago ( A. E.

Leadbeater and Alice A. Bailey stated that Sanat Kumara is in continuous telepathic rapport with the Solar Logos ( the being considered by theosophists as the consciousness of the Sun ).

According to the post-1900 publications of Theosophy ( specifically, the writings of Charles W. Leadbeater, Alice A. Bailey, and Benjamin Creme, as well as the Ascended Master Teachings of Guy Ballard, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Geraldine Innocente, Joshua David Stone, and other Ascended Master Teachings teachers ), Sanat Kumara is an " advanced being " of the Ninth Initiation ( the highest Initiation possible on planet Earth ) who is regarded as the Lord or Regent of Earth and of humanity, and the head of the Spiritual Hierarchy of Earth who dwells in Shamballah, a city said by Theosophists and those adherent to the Ascended Master Teachings to be a floating city the on the etheric plane above the Gobi Desert.

Leadbeater and Alice A. Bailey beginning in the 1920s.

Neo-Theosophy, as developed by Annie Besant, C. W. Leadbeater, and later Alice Bailey, makes the astral finer than the etheric plane but " denser " than the mental plane.

Influenced by Alice A. Bailey, Charles Webster Leadbeater, and their predecessor Madame Blavatsky, Henry T. Laurency produced voluminous writings describing a hylozoic philosophy .< ref >" Introduction to the Works of Henry T. Laurency ".

Other Theosophical writers such as Alice Bailey, a contemporary of Leadbeater, also gave continuousness to Theosophical concepts of ethereal beings and her works had a great impact over New Age movement.

In C. W. Leadbeater and Alice Bailey, the physical body is distinguished from the etheric body, which serves as its " blueprint ", and structures of the etheric body, such as chakras, are mirrored in the main glands and nerve ganglia of the physical body.

Leadbeater, Rudolf Steiner, and Alice Bailey, Blavatsky's description of the seven bodies or principles remained a central part of western esoteric and New Age thinking ever since.

Leadbeater and Annie Besant ( Adyar School of Theosophy ), and later Alice Bailey, the mental body is equivalent to the " Lower Manas " of Blavatsky's original seven principles of man.

Leadbeater and Besant ( Adyar School of Theosophy ), and later Alice Bailey, though, in formalising Theosophical cosmology around 1913, conceived that the etheric plane constituted four higher subplanes of the physical plane.

Thus, for Leadbeater and subsequent theosophists, ex-theosophists ( e. g. Alice Bailey ) and occultists, the Mental Plane is a distinct reality or zone of being, more subtle and refined than the Astral, but denser and coarser than the Causal.

This elaborate cosmology, first formulated by Blavatsky, was also taught by de Purucker, Leadbeater, and Alice Bailey.

According to Theosophists Charles Webster Leadbeater and Alice A. Bailey, devas represent a separate evolution to that of humanity.

This and other differences, in particular Steiner's vocal rejection of Leadbeater and Besant's claim that Jiddu Krishnamurti was the vehicle of a new Maitreya, or world teacher, led to a formal split in 1912 / 13, when Steiner and the majority of members of the German section of the Theosophical Society broke off to form a new group, the Anthroposophical Society.

In April 1909, Krishnamurti first met Charles Webster Leadbeater, who claimed clairvoyance.

Leadbeater had noticed Krishnamurti, who frequented the same beach on the Adyar river, and was amazed by the " most wonderful aura he had ever seen, without a particle of selfishness in it.

Leadbeater was convinced that the boy would become a spiritual teacher and a great orator ; the likely " vehicle for the Lord Maitreya "— in Theosophical doctrine, an advanced spiritual entity periodically appearing on Earth as a World Teacher to guide the evolution of humankind.

At the same time, Leadbeater assumed the role of guide in a parallel, mystical instruction of Krishnamurti ; the existence and progress of this instruction was at the time known only to a select few.

Leadbeater and other Theosophists expected the " vehicle " to have certain paranormal experiences, but were nevertheless mystified by these developments.

His new direction reached a climax in 1929, when he rebuffed attempts by Leadbeater and Besant to continue with the Order of the Star.

Following the dissolution prominent Theosophists turned against Krishnamurti, including Leadbeater who is said to have stated, " the Coming had gone wrong.
