Excerpt from Episodes From an Unwritten History About two years ago there was slipped under my office door an announcement of a series of lectures to be given under the auspices of the Theosophical Society by one C. Jinarajadasa, of Columbo, Island of Ceylon. On the front page of the folder was his portrait in half-tone: a dusky young gentleman with curly hair, an untroubled intellectual brow, eyes dreamy yet penetrating behind gold-bowed glasses, a sweet mouth, and a firm chin. It was a face to which I took an instant liking, but the announced lectures did not attract me, for they appeared to deal with matters with which I had been long familiar through the theosophical literature I had read when it was first given to the world in the eighties. I had been interested in that literature, but in common with many others I had been deterred from following up my interest by the bad odor which soon afterwards came to be attached to the very word Theosophy by reason of the internecine warfare of the Society, and of the alleged exposure of Madame Blavatsky, its founder, by a member of the London Society for Psychical Research.
