Daniel, your above statement contradicts with the quotation of Blavatky you gave earlier which is :
"Jesus Christ, i.e., the Man-God of the Christians copied from the
Avataras of every country, from the Hindu Krishna as well as the Egyptian Horus, was never a historical person."

Why this contradiction?

He is a deified personification of the glorified type of the great Hierophants of the Temples, and his story, as told in the New Testament, is an allegory, assuredly containing profound esoteric truths, but still an allegory.  Every act of the Jesus of the New Testament, every word attributed to him, every event related of him during the three years of the mission he is said to have accomplished, rests on the programme of the Cycle of Initiation, a cycle founded on the Precession of the Equinoxes and the Signs of the Zodiac...."
