I guess I don't consider Blavatsky to BE theosophy.  Theosophy was around
long before she ever heard of it - perhaps she felt she would serve
theosophy best by approaching it in her "allusion-heavy style."  But, again,
theosophy is not one person, nor the opinions of that one person.  One can
be a theosophist and never pick up a pen or engage in "intellectual
endeavors". . .
