| | Theosophy and Anthroposophy in Russia |
 | | Theosophy declared, that in Christianity is indeed that truth, which is common to all religions, and that it is not the religion of utmost truth. | | | Theosophy is a contemporary gnosticism, it wants to give the human soul neither a religious faith nor abstract scientific knowledge, but rather an entire all-wise knowledge. | | | Theosophy and anthroposophy rebel against churchly faith, as being a childish condition, but they themselves demand faith of those lower down in their capacity. |

| | Theosophy |
| | Theosophy- Literally means "wisdom of God." Theosophy is a cult founded by Helena Blavatsky in 1875 and which attempts to expound on the wisdom of God found in all religions. | | | Theosophy literally means "wisdom of God." The modem Theosophical movement was founded in 1875 by Helena P. Blavatsky. | | | There is, therefore, no possibility of reconciliation between the two, since the followers of Theosophy extol Buddhist and Brahmanic theories, and Christians follow Jesus Christ alone. |

| | Theosophy is not meant to contradict existing religions, but to illuminate and to explicate areas of religious belief that may not be that clear. | | | Theosophy states that all religions of the world today, although different on the surface, are basically the same (Ellwood 1994: 40-48). | | | Theosophy teaches that our world and all others go through numerous rounds of evolution from the primordial to the material to the spiritual, and that in these grand evolutionary cycles all humanity experiences numerous incarnations from less-advanced to more-advanced states of being. |

| | Hence Theosophy is everywhere the defender and helper of religions, serving each in its own domain, pointing out to each man the sufficiency of his own faith, and urging him to deepen and spiritualise his beliefs rather than to attack the forms preferred by others. | | | To realise this, and thus to know oneself to be one with God, is the aim of Theosophy, as of all true Religion. | | | A great service rendered by Theosophy as Science to the various religions is the explanation it offers of their several ceremonies and rites. |

| | Theosophy is spoken of by friends and foes as a religion when not a sect. | | | The principles preached on the Mount are those of Theosophy; not because they were uttered by the Christian Christ, but because they are universal ethics, and were preached by Buddha and Confucius, Krishna, and all the great Sages. | | | It is perhaps necessary, first of all, to say, that the assertion that "Theosophy is not a Religion," by no means excludes the fact that "Theosophy is Religion" itself. |

| | A Brief Overview of Theosophy |
| | Theosophy or "Divine Wisdom" according to Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831-91) and her followers, refers to the Ultimate Truth of the Supreme, the Cosmos, and Humanity. | | | These truths [are] preserved in their purity by the great brotherhood, given out from time to time as the evolution of man permits the giving; so that we are able to trace in all the religions the source whence they flow, the identical teaching which underlies them. | | | It is a Truth that in its pure form is primordial, in that it existed from the dawn of Humanity; esoteric, since only those few individuals capable of understanding such knowledge are allowed to receive it; and universal, because all great minds throughout the world enunciated the same Wisdom. |

| | The principles of theosophy were restated by Helena Blavatsky to draw the attention of the industrialized West to the sublime spiritual ideas of the perennial philosophy, and to re-awaken the Orient to its ancient spiritual heritage. | | | The word theosophy is derived from the Greek theo-sophia, which literally means "divine wisdom." Non-political and non-sectarian, the Theosophical Society is dedicated to universal brotherhood, independent spiritual search, and study of the religious, scientific and philosophical thought of humanity, ancient and modern. | | | Theosophical Articles: Topics in Depth -- A collection of almost 1000 online articles, organized by topic, on theosophy, universal brotherhood, reincarnation, karma, evolution, the spiritual path, human nature, death, occultism and psychism, cycles, teachers and the hierarchy of compassion, truth and ethics, science, the arts, and the world's spiritual traditions (copyrighted material used with permission). |

| | Theosophy World — January 1997 |
| | Subjects include theosophy, Blavatsky, Judge, Purucker, brotherhood, reincarnation, karma, evolution, the spiritual path, occultism, cycles, what a human being is, death, teachers and the hierarchy of compassion, truth and ethics; also science, the arts, and the world's spiritual traditions considered from a theosophical perspective. | | | The chapters on Theosophy and modern science are particularly fascinating, because they do show how Theosophy is, in essence, a scientific attempt to understand religions, and also a religious attempt to spiritualize science. | | | Furthermore, the book does not characterize the Theosophical Movement as a "New Age" fad, but views it comprehensively as an attempt to bring forth and to synthesize the Divine Wisdom of the ages which is at the core of all world religions and mature philosophies. |
