Description

The Mahatma Letters are letters said to come from hidden masters, Koot Hoomi and Morya, to A. P. Sinnett and A. O. Hume in the 1880s. They arrived by odd means in India, through Helena Blavatsky's circle. No set of papers in theosophy has stirred more debate.

The letters teach theosophical cosmology: rounds of worlds, root races, karma, and the hidden brotherhood guiding mankind. They also give sharp personal advice and scolding to the two Englishmen. Believers treat them as scripture of the movement; critics call them fakes. Either way, they shaped the Theosophical Society from its early years.
