Theosophical Society: Roles and Features of the Movement in India
Dr.Karnika Dubey.
Abstract
The Theosophical Society was established in New York in 1875 by Madame Blavatsky and Col. Olcott. This philosophy took hold only in 1879 in the Indian community and civilization. It crystallised with its headquarters in Adayar during the Presidency of Madras. Annie Besant popularised the trend in India. Theosophy is the wisdom behind all faiths if they are deprived of superstitions and accretions. It provides a theory that makes life intelligible and shows that the universe is driven by fairness and compassion. His teachings lead to unveiling human beings' hidden divine essence, without reliance on external phenomena. The Theosophical Society was founded in 1875 to support theosophy.
Key words: It crystallised with its headquarters in Adayar during the Presidency of Madras.
