Blavatsky's vision for social change:
  
   "The Theosophical "missionaries" aim 
also at a social revolution.  But it is 
a wholly ethical revolution. It will come 
about when the disinherited masses understand 
that happiness is in their own hands, that 
wealth brings nothing but worries, that 
he is happy who works for others, for those 
others work for him, and when the rich 
realize that their felicity depends upon 
that of their brothers--whatever their race 
or religion -- then only will the world 
see the dawn of happiness."
  
-- BLAVATSKY COLLECTED WRITINGS, VIII, pages 86-87
