MADAME BLAVATSKY - SPIRITUAL TRAVELLER

At a time when women, like children, were expected to be seen and not heard its was said that she left her husband to become a trick rider in the circus. Traveling alone she entered forbidden Tibet, she was a spiritual genius and the mother of the new age. On the other hand there are those who say she was a fraud who's one real talent was that she knew how to tell a good tale. Either way there is no doubt that her remarkable synthesis of western occultism and eastern culture and religion, for Buddhism and Hinduism has had a far reaching impact on the modern world.
