LIST OF ARTICLES

THE WRITINGS OF MADAME BLAVATSKY


 
 
 
Below I am going to give you all the interesting information that I have found about the writings of Helena Blavatsky, about her articles, her magazines, her books, her esoteric instructions and her letters.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
1.  HER ARTICLES
 
 
 
 
Compilations
 
1) "A Modern Panarion" (1895) is a thick book published by the Theosophical Society Adyar, and it was the first great compilation that was made and which regroups articles that Blavatsky wrote between 1874 and 1882.

2) "Practical Occultism" (probably printed in 1939) is a small book published by the Theosophical Society Adyar that contains two articles which were wrote by Blavatsky, plus a compilation of texts which she did not write.
 
 
 
3) The "Blavatsky Collected Writings" (1933-1985) is the largest compilation that has been made since it totals 14 volumes plus an index and regroups almost all the articles that Blavatsky wrote throughout her life. This collection was published by the Theosophical Society Adyar, and this work was carried out by Boris de Zirkoff, although the ULT claims the modifications he made.

4) The pamphlets of the ULT (1963) the United Lodge of Theosophists published 37 booklets in which it regrouped many of Blavatsky's articles by theme and these are identical to the original articles.

The Wurzburg Manuscript
 
It is a partial copy of Blavatsky’s early manuscript of The Secret Doctrine, written in 1885 and 1886 while staying in Würzburg, Germany, and Ostende, Belgium. A copy of her manuscript was made to be sent to India for review and correction by Subba Row.
 
 
 
 
The Stanzas of Dzyan
 
Blavatsky explained that the stanzas that make up the backbone of The Secret Doctrine (known as The Stanzas of Dzyan) are part of a secret book from which ancient Lamas were inspired to write the Tibetan text Kiu-té, which was later discovered it exists

The explanations that Blavatsky gave about the Secret Doctrine
 
In 1889, Blavatsky with her students carried out 24 study sessions on The Secret Doctrine and in particular on The Stanzas of Dzyan, and shortly after a summary of the first ten meetings was made, which ended up being published in a two-part book entitled "Transactions of the Blavatsky Lodge”.
 
 
And instead, it was only in 2010 that almost all the records of those meetings were published in a book titled “The Secret Doctrine Commentaries: the unpublished 1889 instructions”.
