The Raja Yoga Messenger was the magazine of the Raja Yoga School at Point Loma, California, the model community ('Lomaland') built by Katherine Tingley's Universal Brotherhood and Theosophical Society in the first decades of the twentieth century. Written largely by and for the community's children and young people, it is Theosophy in a domestic, pedagogical key: brotherhood, the memory of Blavatsky, and the doings of the Aryan Theosophical Press sit alongside verse, fairy tales and cheerful school reportage. The 'Raja Yoga' of the title names Tingley's own theory of balanced, character-forming education rather than any Hindu discipline of meditation. Beneath the schoolroom surface run the ordinary doctrinal currents of Point Loma Theosophy — karma, reincarnation and the universal brotherhood of humanity — carried gently as the assumed background of a child's moral world.
