Since its founding in 1875, the Theosophical Society has consistently delivered a message of personal fulfillment and spiritual development to all who wish to pursue these goals. Utilizing the theme of the 2025 World Congress, this talk will use the genesis of the Society's history as an indicator of how it has helped to make this a reality. This will not be a mere history lesson but an attempt to explore the esoteric side of the movement and learn from its trials, tribulations and triumphs.
