Some Gnosis FAQ About Knowledge - (734)

What is the Aim of Gnosis?

The aim of Gnosis has always sought to provide humanity with knowledge, keys and techniques for the full development of human and spiritual potential. The signpost of Gnosis has always pointed within, the goal of Gnosis is to direct the human being to the Divine spark that lies within everyone and from there to begin the ‘work’ of inner transformation, so to once again unite with one’s particular inner individual spark.



Will Gnosis Satisfy the Sincere Spiritual Seeker?

If you are someone who has searched and searched and has become tired of so many theories, then as they say “you have come to the right place”. Gnosis is for those who are tired of theories and who want a practical knowledge that has a path that produces tangible and perceivable changes in themselves.

It is said in the Gnostic teachings that Gnosis lives in deeds and withers in abstractions. 

There are two doctrines, one is the doctrine of the ‘eye’ and the other is the ‘doctrine of the heart’. The doctrine of the eye is the intellectual study of esotericism or spirituality whose end result is only a head filled with information that at best comes from the experiences of others. The doctrine of the heart is different, in that it is the practical study of esotericism. It is to experience for oneself and therefore to know and be impacted directly by the experience.

The Gnostic knowledge is one that delves deeply into the cause of things, seeing beyond the visible effects and into the root that is often hidden. The experiences that can be had through the application of the Gnostic knowledge are profound and intimate, and answer some or many of the mysteries about ourselves and nature. It is said that every person is a mystery needing to be deciphered. With this being said, it is our honest conclusion that the Gnostic teachings will satisfy the sincere spiritual seeker.


Is Gnosis a Superficial Knowledge?

No. At the heart of Gnosis is the experience of one’s inner reality, which is much deeper than the superficial aspects of a person. As we mentioned earlier Gnosis is a knowledge that goes to the cause of things beyond the surface effects.


What Are the Foundations of Gnosis?

Gnosis rests on four fundamental pillars. They are science, art, philosophy and religion or mysticism. See the articles section of this website for more information on the four pillars of Gnosis.
