Blavatsky praised Buddhism. I ask in which Buddhist country Blavatsky's Theosophy was accepted?

And today many person consider Karma and reincarnation to be a more solid choice than a extremely stupid Christian Bible with an eternal hell attached to it. - Today the Christian Churches are not filled, but rather very empty when compared to the years 1875-1891. So how can I agree with your ideas or question? I cannot.

Yet, there are Tibetan Buddhist branches, which are very esoterical and theosophical in nature, although most branches are not really theosophical in comparison today.

Increased, not due to a Christian male God blowing lifebreath in more humans, who are either villains, murders of peaceful caring beings before they turn twelve, but rather because the Law of Karma is operating like this.
