Peter Mt. Shasta lived with Neem Karoli Baba in India on and off from 1971–1972, also spending time with American teacher Baba Ram Dass. He also met and studied with other yogis and saints: Anandamayi Ma, Shivabalayogi and Sathya Sai Baba, as well as being a guest of The Theosophical Society in Adyar, India. On returning to the US the Ascended Master Saint Germain materialized before him in Muir Woods in a physical form and sent him to Mount Shasta, California to study with Pearl Dorris, former assistant to Guy Ballard.[1] The account of this meeting with Saint Germain is recorded in Apprentice to the Masters: Adventures of a Western Mystic, Book II. He also claims to have met El Morya and Koot Hoomi in physical form, as well as meeting with Saint Germain in physical form on numerous occasions. Some of his earliest writing is referenced in Mount Shasta: An Annotated Bibliography by William C. Miesse. He was interviewed by Emilie Frank in her book Mount Shasta: California's Mystic Mountain; however, his comments about a "City of Light" were taken out of context. He is further mentioned by Madeline Duntley in her article Spiritual Tourism and Frontier Esotericism at Mount Shasta. He is currently working under the Masters guidance to incorporate the ancient eastern teachings on meditation and self-analysis into the western teachings on mastery through the invocation of the I AM consciousness.
