Quotes:Ramaswamier, S.

Zirkoff, Boris

Râmaswamier, S. This early worker in the Theosophical Movement was a Brâhmana of high caste whose real name or sarman was Râmabathra. At the time he joined the Theosophical Society, in September, 1881, he was District Registrar of Assurances at Tin- nevelly, Southern India. He soon became a Probationary Chela of the Masters and received about a dozen brief letters and notes from them, mainly from Master M. He died in 1893, devoted as ever to the Cause.

In December, 1894, K. R. Sitaraman, who was his son, published these letters in a pamphlet entitled Isis Further Unveiled and containing an attack on the integrity of H.P.B. and the genuineness of the letters received by his father, whom he considered to have fallen victim to a “hoax.” It is not known what has become of the original letters, which may have been destroyed. The same pamphlet contained a sketch of Master M. which is reproduced in the present Volume, just as it appeared in Sitaraman’s pamphlet.
