[[The Mahatma Letters to A. P. Sinnett (book)|'The Mahatma Letters to A. P. Sinnett'']] refers to Mr. Noel in '''[[Mahatma Letter No. 111]]''' in the chronological numbering, or '''No. 59''' in the Barker scheme of numbering. On Page  18 he is mentioned in a section about sacred geometry:
<blockquote>
Well may the Geometer of the R.S. not know that the apparent absurdity of attempting to square the circle covers a mystery ineffable. It would hardly be found among the foundation stones of Mr. [[Roden Noel]]'s speculations upon the "pneumatical body . . . of our Lord," nor among the debris of Mr. Farmer's "A New Basis of Belief in Immortality"; and to many such metaphysical minds it would be worse than useless to divulge the fact, that the Unmanifested Circle — the <u><span style="border-bottom: 2px double #000;">Father</span></u>, or <u>[[Absolute]]</u> Life — is non-existent outside the Triangle and Perfect Square, and — is only manifested in the <u>Son</u>; and that it is when, reversing the action and returning to its absolute state of [[Unity]], and the square expands once more into the [[Circle]] — that "the Son returns to the bosom of the Father"...<ref>[http://theosophy.wiki/en/Mahatma_Letter_No._111#Page_18 Mahatma Letter No. 111, Page 18.]</ref>
