There are three truths which are absolute, and which cannot be lost, but yet may remain silent for lack of speech.

It is no exaggeration to say that there never was – during the present century, at any rate – a movement, social or religious, so terribly, nay, so absurdly misunderstood, or more blundered about than THEOSOPHY – whether regarded theoretically as a code of ethics, or practically, in its objective expression, i.e., the Society known by that name.

Radha Burnier (15 November 1923 – 31 October 2013) was born in Adyar, India. She was president of the Theosophical Society Adyar from 1980 until her death in 2013. She was General Secretary of the Indian Section of the Society between 1960 and 1978. Radha Burnier was the daughter of Nilakanta Sri Ram who was the fifth President of the T.S. Adyar.
