She has been the pursuit of esoteric and occult knowledge on this trip; finally joined the spiritualist current of that period. When she came to USA in 1873, Blavatsky was in spiritualist current literally. Attended the evocation sessions in USA as a medium. Blavatsky abandoned spiritualism after a while, then she has been a leader in the formation of the Theosophical Society. After some time, she went to India with her fellow Henry Steel Olcott and moved the center of the Theosophical Society in India. From this date, she has pursued the effort to combine Western esoteric tradition with Eastern thought.
