Where is this in the Secret Doctrine?

Post#1 » Mon May 28, 2012 10:35 pm

In A Garden of Pomegranates under the section describing Hod, Israel Regardie writes the following -
"The Hindu god is Hanuman, represented by an ape or monkey. Blavatsky gives at great length, in The Secret Doctrine, the interesting theory that within apes are imprisoned the human souls of a solar-mercurial nature, souls almost of the status of the godhead, called Manasaputras "Mind-born sons of Brahma"; which may explain why the Hindu gods of mind and intelligence are represented by so, apparently, unintelligent beast as the anthropoid."

I'm really not one for reading blavatsy from cover to cover and I really can't find this in the Secret Doctrine. Has anyone studied it enough to hazard a guess at where. I've been looking and reading btu alas, nothing remotely similar.
