About the Author

Born to a noble Russian family. She managed to travel to Tibet and was trained by the masters from 1868 to 1870. From 1875 through her death in 1891 she spread the message around the world. Theosophy is the name Blavatsky gave to that portion of knowledge that she brought from the masters to the world.
