Rishi Agastya was one of the Mahatmas mentioned by Henry Steel Olcott in his diary. Other designations for this personage are "Master Jupiter," the Regent of India, and "the revered gentleman."[1] He was called by H.P.B. "Narayan" and "the Old Gentleman." According to C. Jinarajadasa, he was one of the adepts who helped H.P.B. write Isis Unveiled, often occupying her body.[2] One of his letters, in facsimilie and transcribed, appears as Letter 24 in Letters from the Masters of the Wisdom, Second Series, p. 51.
