The Mahatmas provided these insights about 
Madame Blavatsky's mission:

"[H.P.Blavatsky is] . . . a woman of most 
exceptional and wonderful endowments. Combined 
with them she had strong personal defects, but 
just as she was, there was no second to her 
living fit for this work. We sent her to 
America...." 

"This state of hers [H.P.B.'s] is intimately 
connected with her occult training in Tibet, 
and due to her being sent out alone into the 
world to gradually prepare the way for others. 
After nearly a century of fruitless search, 
our chiefs had to avail themselves of the only 
opportunity to send out a European body. . . ."

". . . We employ agents - the best available. Of 
these for the past thirty years the chief has 
been the personality known as H.P.B. to the world 
(but otherwise to us). Imperfect and very troublesome, 
no doubt, she proves to some, nevertheless, there 
is no likelihood of our finding a better one for 
years to come. . . . With occult matters she has 
everything to do. . . . She is our direct agent. . . . "
