Helena Ivanovna Roerich (Russian: Елена Ивановна Рерих; née Shaposhnikova (Шапошникова); 12 February [O.S. 31 January] 1879 – 5 October 1955) was a Russian theosophist, writer, and public figure. She and her husband Nicholas Roerich were the principal articulators of the Agni Yoga neo-theosophical teachings, which they claimed had been transmitted to them from the ascended master Morya. Along with her husband, she took part in expeditions of hard-to-reach and little-investigated regions of Central Asia, and lobbied for ratification of the Roerich Pact, an early international treaty regarding the protection of the cultural heritage. She was an Honorary President-Founder of the Urusvati Himalayan Research Institute in India. She translated two volumes of the Secret Doctrine of H. P. Blavatsky, and selected Mahatma's Letters (Cup of the East), from English to Russian. (From Wikipedia) More about E. I. Rerikh: Associated author: | Books by E. I. Rerikh:
