Topics Covered In Our Esoteric Studies
This is a group for anyone interested in learning about Gnosis. “Gnosis” is a word that means “knowing”, so this is not a group that practices some ancient belief system or religion, but a contemporary tradition aimed at the development of all of our human possibilities through the study and practice of a set of universal principles of self-discovery and inner development found in the sciences, philosophies, arts and spiritual traditions of human cultures throughout history.
Putting these universal principles into action in our lives brings real, immediate and lasting positive change and a growing level of freedom and happiness that makes us more productive in every area of life: as family members, workers, students, citizens, partners, etc. Leading us to the ultimate goal of freeing our essence from the Wheel of Samsara.
The below curriculum is a weekly course which spans the course of about a year, serving as a foundation for the further development of the study of esotericism and the science and ethics of meditation in a more in-depth manner.
Anyone is welcome to attend any of the public lectures and up to the first few classes of the course; however, as the classes and practices build on one another, consistent weekly attendance is expected. If you decide not to continue on with the classes at any point, you are free to stop attending with no further obligations. Please contact us for more details.
Courses are offered in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Note: We are essentially a meditation and study group and not a therapy or discussion or debate group.

“We are living in this world for some special reason, for something, by virtue of some special factor…Obviously, within us there is much that we must see, study and comprehend, if we really desire to know something about ourselves, about our own life.
Tragic is the existence of the one who dies without having known the purpose of one’s life. Each one of us must discover for ourselves the purpose of our own life…”
