Our History

The Theosophical Society (TS) is a local lodge of the worldwide society represented in 70 countries with headquarters in Chennai, India. It was first started by H. P. Blavatsky and Colonel Henry S. Olcott in 1875 in New York. The teachings of theosophy (theos means Gods and Sophia is wisdom or the wisdom of Gods) are found in many cultures all over the world and at all times in history.
The Society seeks to promote the practical realization of the universal brotherhood of humanity without any distinctions, to encourage the study of comparative religion, philosophy and science, and to investigate unexplained laws of nature and the powers latent in the human being.
