What superpowers did Blavatsky have?
From a young age, Helena Blavatsky told her family that she constantly sees various creatures, ghosts and hears mysterious and beautiful sounds. Especially often she mentioned an important and noble Hindu whom she saw, both in a dream and in reality. She assured that this is the Guardian who will save her from many troubles and misfortunes.
Their acquaintance took place in 1852 in London. Mahatma Moriah told Elena that he needed her help, that she should come to Tibet and spend three years there.
The psychic abilities of Blavatsky are still questioned, although eyewitnesses said that she repeatedly:
- predicted future events,
- could read unopened letters,
- move objects without contact, etc.
Blavatsky was one of the first to predict:
- the emergence of nuclear weapons,
- the beginning of the war,
- foresaw numerous discoveries and inventions in the field of physics,
- talked about the conquest of space in the XX century.
One of her predictions says that the time will come when the Russian people will become interested in Buddhism, reincarnation³, karma and vegetarianism.
