Linda Oliveira is a second-generation Theosophist who joined the Theosophical Society in Australia in 1971 after hearing some talks by the philosopher, J. Krishnamurti. Later, her degree at the Australian National University focused mainly on psychology and political science.

She was the National President of the Theosophical Society in Australia, as well as Editor of its national magazine, for a total of sixteen years during two periods, the second of which was completed in January 2021. Linda was the International Vice-President of the Theosophical Society from October 2008 until late 2011, serving two and a half years of this
period at Adyar, the Society’s International Headquarters in India, before returning to live in Australia. She has lectured and given study classes for the TS in various countries.

Linda holds a strong conviction that a genuine exploration and reflection upon Theosophy, the Perennial Wisdom, provides to those who are awake and alert the possibility of profound human spiritual transformation.
