The Theosophical Society was formed in 1875 to promote an understanding of Esoteric Teachings. These teachings, sometimes called `The Ageless Wisdom`, which was previously only available to initiates in Secret Orders has found expression down the ages in philosophies, sciences, mysticism, religions and the arts.

The Theosophical Society, now active in over 50 countries, is composed of people belonging to any belief system or to none, who have an aspiration for truth.
