Tschudi, Johann Jacob von +

His writings concern Peruvian fauna, antiquities and the Quechua language, including Die Kechua Sprache and Reisen durch Südamerika.

Tseretelev, Alexei Nikolayevich +

Russian diplomat and prince of Georgian descent (1848–1883). He served in the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–1878 and became consul-general at Philippopolis (now Plovdiv) in 1878. He helped prepare the Organic Statute of Eastern Rumelia and died at Lipyagi, Tambov province, on 16 May 1883 (Old Style). ([https://azbyka.ru/otechnik/Spravochniki/russkij-biograficheskij-slovar-tom-21/558 Russian Biographical Dictionary: Tseretelev, Alexei Nikolayevich (Russian)]; [https://dsvf.ru/ceretelev/ Diplomatic Service Veterans Foundation: A. N. Tseretelev (Russian)]) He is a possible identification of the A. Tzeretelef to whom [[Zirkoff, Boris|B. de Zirkoff]] attributes the mirror experiment discussed by [[Blavatsky, Helena Petrovna|H. P. Blavatsky]]. The identification with the diplomat remains unproven. ([[Zirkoff, Boris|B. de Zirkoff]], [[Blavatsky H.P. - The Bewitched Mirror|BCW 2:435]]) The first publication is signed “Prince A. Tzeretelef”, but its narrator is named Yurey Ivanovitch Tanishef. The diplomat’s biography therefore should not be equated with the narrator’s story. ([https://www.theosociety.org/pasadena/theosoph/theos9b.htm The Bewitched Mirror, The Theosophist, June 1880, p. 230]) +

Tubal‐Cain +

The Biblical Kabir, “an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron”, the son of Zillah and Lamech; one with the Greek Hephæstos or Vulcan. His brother Jabal, the son of Adah and the co‐uterine brother of Jabal, one the father of those “who handle the harp and organ ”, and the other the father “of such as have cattle”, are also Kabiri: for, as shown by Strabo, it is the Kabiri (or Cyclopes in one sense) who made the harp for Kronos and the trident for Poseidon, while some of their other brothers were instructors in agriculture. Tubal‐Cain (or Thubal‐Cain) is a word used in the Master‐Mason’s degree in the ritual and ceremonies of the Freemasons. [[Category: CTD info from Theosophical Glossary]] (TG). +

A daughter of Cicero, in whose tomb, as claimed by several alchemists, was found burning a perpetual lamp, placed there more than a thousand years previously. [[Category: CTD info from Theosophical Glossary]] (TG). +

Tum +

The “Brothers of the Tum”, a very ancient school of Initiation in Northern India in the days of Buddhist persecution. The “Turn B’hai” have now become the “Aum B’hai”, spelt, however, differently at present, both schools having merged into one. The first was composed of Kshatriyas, the second of Brahmans. The word “Tum” has a double meaning, that of darkness (absolute darkness), which as absolute is higher than the highest and purest of lights, and a sense resting on the mystical greeting among Initiates, “ Thou art thou, thyself ”, equivalent to saying “Thou art one with the Infinite and the All”.
