Helena Blavatsky
Russian occultist and philosopher who founded Theosophy, synthesizing Eastern and Western esoteric traditions. Blavatsky's The Secret Doctrine presented cosmology and anthropogenesis from occult sources. Her claim of contact with Mahatmas and controversial life added mystique. Blavatsky's influence on Western esotericism, New Age thought, and Eastern philosophy's Western reception is significant.
