On Friday last, a meeting was held at Colonel Olcott’s residence at Mylapore, Madras, when several members of the Native community were formally enrolled as members of the new Theosophical Society in that city, on their signing the usual covenants and obligations of the Society and paying a fee of ten rupees each. It is said that Colonel Olcott and Madame Blavatsky will shortly proceed to some of the districts in Madras to inaugurate similar institutions in them. | |||

At the last meeting of the Bengal Theosophical Society, a highly interesting and instructive lecture in Bengali on the “Yoga Philosophy” was delivered by Pundit Kshetra Nath Vidyaratna of Benares. The Society, we hear, is about to import some valuable books for the formation of a library for the use of its members. | |||

A friend writes to us from Madras to say that Madame Blavatsky and Colonel Olcott have had a perfect success in that city. They have got a Branch Society established there under the presidency of a distinguished Hindu gentleman. Many members are still flocking in. Madame Blavatsky and Colonel Olcott, with a delegation from the Branch Society, have left Madras for Nellore by the Buckingham Canal. They may go thence to Guntur direct, or return to Madras and take steamer. Madame Blavatsky is then to go to Ceylon, and Colonel Olcott to Bombay. The Colonel lectured twice at Madras to immense crowds. The ''Madras Native Opinion'' writes:— | |||
{{Style P-Quote|Colonel Olcott and Madame Blavatsky have proved themselves, beyond all shadow of doubt, to be thoroughly honest, pure-living people, completely above any selfish motives, and imbued with a deep love of the Indian people and a sincere desire to promote their best interests. Add these good qualities and kind feelings of the Colonel and Madame to the really praiseworthy objects of the Theosophical Society, and it is no wonder that we find both these good people immensely popular, and the Society whose cause they cherish so dearly in a fair way to take root and flourish in our Presidency (as in India) generally, and in the city of Madras particularly.}} | {{Style P-Quote|Colonel Olcott and Madame Blavatsky have proved themselves, beyond all shadow of doubt, to be thoroughly honest, pure-living people, completely above any selfish motives, and imbued with a deep love of the Indian people and a sincere desire to promote their best interests.
