Have you read Isis Unveiled? I’m only half way through, but it seems like half of the book is about how the scientists have their heads lodged in a dark place for them not seeing that proof back then. That book was published in 1877 and sounds extremely familiar….

No. I don't even have a copy of it yet. I wasn't sure so I looked it up, but my initial guess was correct on who the author is. I do have one of her books but I haven't added Isis Unveiled to it yet. To your point, in my, sort of, high level canvassing of her life's work via a dozen or so different Youtube videos focused upon her, it seems that she was, like Christ, a "traveler". If the desire to know is great enough, a person will not be stopped in their pursuit of that knowledge. They will travel the world over, learn half a dozen languages along the way, talk to everyone they can, and, more than likely, activate higher chakras as that sort of polarization is highly consistent with the prereqs for activating the heart and throat chakras.
I can't say I'm thoroughly or precisely familiar with her exact ideas so I would probably refrain from giving her a carte blanche endorsement at this time, but my guess is that whenever I do get around to consuming her work, I will find that a LOT of it resonates.
She is the founder of the Theosophical Society. So very important person in the bringing of esoteric knowledge to the masses of the West. Even after the split from the Theosophical Society, Steiner still made a point to publicly celebrate her contributions on her birthday. So not the latest and fullest of teachings but a very important person in getting the ball rolling for wider access to this kind of knowledge.
Yeah, from my initial, high level canvassing, I'd basically gathered that she was a person of interest who seemed to have figured out quite a bit. Her perspective seemed somewhat like perennialism or syncretism or omnism...something like that.
My guess is that I would agree with her more than I would agree with most people but we would probably have some differences and, to be fair, I'm living a full century plus later than her so I'm working with a different information set. She didn't have Churchward's work or Dispenza or Bentov or L/L Research or Dr. Gilbert or Dolores Cannon or Professor Hapgood or any of that stuff.
I probably canvassed her probably like 12 or 18 months ago so its been a while since I refreshed myself on her perspective but from what I do remember, she was able to put together a very solid perspective with relatively limited resources and that was worthy of celebration in my esteem as well.
