Most Mahatma Letters – correspondence written or annotated by the Masters of the Wisdom – have been published in the books The Mahatma Letters to A. P. Sinnett, Letters from the Masters of the Wisdom, and Mrs. Holloway and the Mahatmas. Other letters are still being located in private collections, and these have come to light recently.

Letters that HPB was instructed to keep

The following ten letters are a special category because the Masters directed Helena Petrovna Blavatsky to preserve them. Each provides significant details about the history of the early Theosophical Society and its members.
