The foregoing chapter scarcely seems complete without some reference to the other two centres where an attempt has been made to express the ideals of Theosophy in concrete form one in the East, at Adyar, Madras, the other in the West, at Krotona, near Los Angeles, California.
This "Institute of Theosophy" takes its name from the School of Science, Art and Philosophy founded by the great Pythagoras, and aspires to be to-day what his Krotona was in the past a centre of spiritual enlightenment. It is run on co-operative lines, and on a non-profit basis.
A striking feature of the grounds is the massive sculptured trilithons, about 2000 years old, brought from a ruined temple in southern India, and erected here in picturesque surroundings. The colony at Krotona is of more recent origin, and its environment is similar in some respects to that of Point Loma.
