Is this supposed to be a mainstream western-list?
Anyhow, in Holland, as everywhere in Europe, Islam is
fastly becoming a major cultural influance, and already is
far stronger than theosophy in the sense of the word where
specifically Blavatskyan idea's and ideals are concerned.
New Age is a cultural movement of comparable size as Islam,
in Holland, I would guess. (Not a statistically based
statement :-) )
