Gnosis is the universal wisdom of all times and places. The flame of gnosis always flares up wherever there may be individuals in a process of consciousness revolution. Gnostics were not only those sects in the Hellenic world and Near East during the 1st, 2nd and 3rd centuries AD; Gnostics were not only the early Christians thrown to the lions, but Gnostics were also the genuine alchemists who had to evade persecution centuries later. Gnostics were not only those initiates of the Eleusinian mysteries, but also the Egyptian and Aztec hierophants of earlier times. Gnostics were the Sufis, but there is Gnosticism also among Taoists; the Kabbalah is pure gnosis, and so is the Book of Revelation.
The Gnostic attitude is of non-conformity with the dreariness of existence, with its passing pleasures and pains; it is a yearning for something higher and more real, rebelliousness against conventional beliefs that are commonly accepted without questioning. Gnostics seek ever deeper levels of truth to be realised, a more absolute reality to be discovered, and they know that all this lies nowhere but within oneself.
Gnosis is a matter of direct personal experience. The Gnostic wisdom cannot be adequately conveyed within the limitations of academic discourse. A reasoned explication can make reference to gnosis, but it can never express it. This is not because gnosis is irrational, but because it is supra-rational. Gnosis is best conveyed through the symbolic language of myths and fables, of poetry and parables. The language of gnosis is the universal language of dreams; it is the language of archetypes and objective symbols. Gnostic psychology is introspective, but it is different from psychoanalysis. Gnostic psychology is conscientious self-observation and conscious self-analysis in meditation.
The topical content of this site draws heavily on the work by Samael Aun Weor, founder of the international Gnostic movement. Samael Aun Weor demonstrated the revolutionary method of Gnostic Anthropology as opposed to the academic research and scholarly elaboration of the received or "official" anthropology. He is taken as an example of what is to be a Gnostic. You look within yourself and find out what the case actually is as a conscious realisation. What you are certain about through your own direct experience is the real knowledge; all the rest is at best educated guessing and at worse pure speculation.
Contemporary Gnosticism is not just one more cult of syncretic orientation, or a new religious belief concocted with elements from different sources. The genuine gnosis is universal, because it is always underpinned by the fundamental unity of mystical experience. Gnostics do develop eclectic discourses as they try to find ways to communicate their internal knowledge, but the way they tell what they know should not be confused with what they do know from their own experience.
