The word "Gnosis" is an ancient Greek term that means wisdom, learning or knowledge. Gnostic Anthropology is
the science of self-knowledge and allows us to discover our relationship with fellow human beings, nature and of all creation.

Samael Aun Weor.

powers latent in the human being.
Definition of the word Gnosis
Gnosis is the ancient Greek word for knowledge. While the common
literal translation for this word is "knowledge", it's meaning is
closer to "insight or direct experience".
Gnosis is not another belief or dogma, but rather implies direct
experience through inner development.
Gnosticism encourages tolerance and understanding, to transcend
selfishness and egoism; to respect the freedom and dignity of other
beings. Nonetheless, it appertains to the intuition and wisdom of
every individual “ Gnostic ” to distil from these principles
personal self-knowledge or Self-Gnosis.
Gnostic Anthropology
The aim and ideal of Gnostic Anthropology is to rediscover the
primeval truth, the primeval wisdom, uncoloured by any particular
creed, and to give it again to humanity. Gnostic Anthropology is
able to penetrate to the essence of various religions because its
attention is on the seed of primeval wisdom contained in each one of
them.
Gnostic Instructors
Teach on a voluntary basis, following the example set by the
founder of the contemporary Gnostic movement; Samael Aun Weor, who
renounced personal income from the sale of his books and the giving
of lectures.
Gnostic Instructors must have studied Gnostic Anthropology for a
number of years as well as participating in an intensive Gnostic
Instructors course to be eligible to teach Gnosis. Gnostic Centres
and Schools are autonomous and have no political or religious
affiliations. Our purpose is simply to teach Gnostic wisdom and
systems of study and meditation for the physical, psychological and
inner development of the whole human being.

Our Seal: This is the official seal of
the Circle for Investigation of Gnostic Anthropology - CIGA.
This seal was given to Samael Aun Weor (The founder of CIGA) by a
Mayan Initiate as a
symbol of his self-realisation . The seal was stamped on the
first and last pages of
"The Pistis Sophia Unveiled" - the last book and great work of
Samael Aun Weor.
Samael Aun Weor, holding the seal that is now
used as the symbol and logo for CIGA.
"A fundamental education is the
science of the consciousness; it is the science that allows
us to discover our relationship with human beings, nature
and all things."
- Samael Aun Weor
