This was a fairly standard local journal of the Adyar Theosophical Society. Theosophy filtered into Yugoslavia in the early 1920s. In 1921, Dr. Edvard Serko published the brochure "Theosophy is the Wisdom of God and the Wisdom about God," which gave rise to the handwritten journal Ezotericno pisma [Esoteric Letters] in Slovenia in 1922, and through the attendance of seven Yugoslavs at a Theosophical conference held in Vienna in 1923, and an art exhibit presented by Alice Adair of Adyar in Belgrade and Zagreb in 1926. See the note under Ezotericno pisma (Esoteric Letters). Contributions by Annie Besant, C.W. Leadbeater (whose "Authentic Biography" is printed in the journal), George Arundale, C. Jinarajadasa, et al.

Claude-Generated Themes:   Teozofija was the organ of the Croatian Theosophical Society (Teozofsko društvo) in Zagreb, published from 1927 into the mid-1930s in the Adyar tradition of the Theosophical Society founded by H.P. Blavatsky and Henry Steel Olcott. Its pages carry the standard Theosophical program in Croatian — karma and reincarnation, the Masters and adepts, translations and notices from The Theosophist, and reports of Society lectures on 'Theosophy in everyday life' — placing it among the many national-language Theosophical journals that carried the movement across interwar Europe. Its chief interest to the corpus is as a Central European, Croatian-language node in the international Theosophical network of the 1920s–30s, doctrinally orthodox to the Adyar line and organizationally tied to the Zagreb lodge.
