-Serapis took personal charge of the direction and chelaship of the amanuensis [[Helena Blavatsky]] and of Colonel Henry Steel Olcott, who was the co-founder and the president of the [[Theosophical Society]]. During the six months preceding the formation of the society in 1875, Serapis sent many letters of encouragement and instruction to Colonel Olcott. The letters were written mostly on thick green parchment in gold ink, signed by Serapis in script, and inscribed with an esoteric symbol of the Brotherhood of Luxor.

The letters were written mostly on thick green parchment in gold ink, signed by Serapis in script, and inscribed with an esoteric symbol of the Brotherhood of Luxor.
 It is characteristic of the letters written to Henry Olcott that he continually gave the exhortation to him, “Try.” The master Serapis stressed the need for courage and fearlessness, the same strong traits he outpictured as Leonidas.
