…The Theosophical Society, which was established for people who wish to learn divine wisdom, has three major goals: (1) the spread of a spirit of fraternity regardless of race, religion, or status, (2) comparative study of ancient world religions and presentation of universal ethics, and (3) research and development of the divine power that lies within each person.
