Theosophical writings of Annie Besant, Charles Leadbeater, and Helena Blavatsky, were translated and published in Germany. An 1892 periodical, Lotus Blossoms, featured Blavatsky's writings and "was the first German publication to sport the theosophical swastika upon its cover" (Goodrick-Clarke:25). As time went on numerous other Theosophy-based groups of occult socialism formed in Germany and Austria via Guido von List and Jorg Lanz von Liebenfels and others. Several of these groups would provide the philosophical framework for National Socialism in Germany.

Blavatsky did indeed originate the term "Root Race". And she did declare that indigenous peoples are dying out. However, Peter Staudenmaier has misunderstood (or never read) the explanation for how this is to be accomplished. Contrary to what Staudenmaier would have you believe, Blavatsky did not declare that those indigenous people who were alive ought to die for karmic reasons. Rather, Blavatsky, accepting the scientific reports that indigenous peoples were dying out as a unique racial group due to sterility, declared that this sterility was due to the fact that souls no longer wished to be born into these races. See Blavatsky, Helena Petrovna. The Secret Doctrine.

"It is important to observe that there are ... some striking differences between Blavatsky's doctrine and Hitler's later racial ideas. Blavatsky herself did not identify the Aryan race with the Germanic peoples. And although her racial doctrine clearly entailed belief in superior and inferior races and hence could be easily misused, she placed no emphasis on the domination of one race over another. She certainly did not advocate the use of force since human racial evolution was an inevitable process that operated primarily on the basis of spiritual laws." [12]

A[R]iosophy - "The wisdom of the Aryans". In Germany the term Aryan had a rather narrower meaning than for Madame Blavatsky. In the 1780's William Jones had discovered the Indo-European group of languages and proposed that they had evolved from a single language. This discovery led to the erroneous assumption that in the distant past a single race had spread out from East to West carrying the gift of civilisation with it. In 1819 Friedrech von Schlegel dubbed this civilising race the "Aryans", a term that was usually applied to the Persians but which Schlegel associated with the German "Ehre" or "honour". It quickly became popular in Germany to believe that the Germans were the purist bred Aryans and therefore superior to anybody else.

Blavatsky könnte auch durch die Schriften von Csoma de Körös die Bestätigung für ihre Lokalisierung Shambhalas in der Wüste Gobi erhalten haben. In einem Brief von 1825 schrieb er, dass Shambhala wie ein buddhistisches Jerusalem sei und dass es zwischen dem 45. und dem 50. Längengrad liege. Obwohl er der Meinung war, dass Shambhala vermutlich in der Kizilkum-Wüste in Kasachstan gefunden würde, lag die Wüste Gobi ebenfalls zwischen den beiden Längengraden. Auch andere würden Shambhala später innerhalb dieser Parameter lokalisieren, aber entweder in Ostturkestan (Xinjiang, Sinkiang) oder in den Altaibergen.

Let it be noted here, that this Madame Blavatsky traveled extensively. In the 1850s and 1870s she visited India repeatedly (... visited Kashmir) while undergoing her occult training and she established various contacts there.
