Annie Besant

by Annie Besant

Annie Besant's autobiography recounts her journey of self-discovery and spiritual awakening. Growing up in a Christian environment, she gradually abandoned her faith and embraced atheism. Her search for truth led her to Theosophy, a philosophy that blends Eastern and Western beliefs. Besant became a prominent advocate of Theosophy, establishing schools and promoting the study of Indian scriptures. She also worked tirelessly for social justice, particularly the rights of women and the underprivileged.
