We, the Hierarchy set this up and We can see how well it is bing received, so We would not allow anyone to be a figurehead if He was going to change things and upset the Adepts.

Think of this Meditation Group as a world wide corporation that needs a leader. He would slip in seemlessly, not trying to organize anything, but to spread the teachings with Love and Kindness, as He travels around the World. He will have vast Spiritual Knowledge and as such will be a reference point for people. He will be invaluable as the numbers get larger.
