Celestia Root Lang, American theosophist, editor and publisher of Divine Life magazine from the Independent Theosophical Society of America.
In 1917, she wrote (describing the
GreatSeal of the United States):
"The reverse side must have been designed by a mystic, one versed in symbolism...The time will come...when the white stone (pyramid capstone) will become the headstone of the corner of our government...in proclaiming a new religion in which all spiritual currents flowing from every religion shall meet in the perfection of the white stone...having neither dogma nor doctrine...We see in Mr. Barton only the facade of the instrument; that if he himself was not a mystic or seer, then, a Master (thought to have been Thomas Paine) stood behind him."
