1/1, December 1890-July 1891. 8 pp., free of charge to members.

This was the catch-all journal for comments and articles by the members of the British Section. In the first issue, H.P. Blavatsky outlined what she saw as its purpose: "[T[he word [Vahan] means a Vehicle. In Theosophical metaphysics this term denotes a basis, something, as a bearer, more substantial than that which it bears; e.g., Buddhi, the spiritual Soul, is the Vahan of Atma --the purely immaterial 'principle.' Or again, as in physiology, our brain is the supposed physical vehicle or Vahan of superphysical thought. Thus, this little fortnightly paper is destined to serve as the bearer of Theosophical thought, and the recorder of all Theosophical activities." Articles by Constance Wachtmeister, Blavatsky, W.Q. Judge, Old, and G.R.S. Mead. The journal ceased shortly after Blavatsky's death in May 1891, although it was resurrected in a "second series" edited by G.R.S. Mead, beginning August 1891 and continuing until 1920. Indexed by the Campbell Theosophical Research Library, Sydney, Australia, online at austheos.org.au.
