The Gnostic Academy of Chicago is a specialized school of esoteric knowledge where students learn the teachings of universal Gnosticism, consisting of meditation, yoga, consciousness, psychology, self-transformation, esoteric anatomy, alternative medicine, the Hebraic Kabbalah, alchemy, sacred sexuality or tantra, Kundalini, energy work, chakra activation, intuition, clairvoyance and psychic powers, dream yoga and astral projection: otherwise known as out of body experiences or lucid dreams, spiritual initiation, tarot, runes, astrology, Buddhism, the great world religious scriptures, and many other spiritual subjects.
We study the wisdom of both east and west in a comprehensive, didactic way, unlike many other forms of spirituality that focus on one specific religion alone. At the Gnostic Academy of Chicago, we draw upon a wide body of resources for a very specific spiritual practice: that of radically transforming our consciousness, so as to reunite with divinity and procure the alleviation of suffering for all sentient beings.
Gnosis is a vast and profound science for actualizing deep, lasting internal change, and—as we seek to demonstrate in our lectures—has been present throughout all mystical traditions. We study the nature of the complete human being through a variety of perspectives and subjects, for each religion complements, educates, and guides through the rich diversity of inner principles and forms. Through study and practical exercises, one identifies, comprehends, and intuits the universal thread connecting all religions, which is the experiential wisdom of an awakened consciousness.
This ubiquitous knowledge has been taught by innumerable teachers and spiritual guides throughout antiquity. At our center, we study and practice their essential instructions in a balanced way, so as to achieve profound transformation and the mastery of our true potential.
These practical teachings are available to all people, regardless of language, culture, race or gender. We welcome people from all religions and denominations to learn, discover, and personally experience their inner divinity and true possibilities with a group of like-minded individuals.
As instructors, we do not broadcast our names, faces, or personal information, since the true teacher is divinity, not any terrestrial person. We long for students to develop greater reliance upon their Innermost Being, the true spiritual instructor, and not upon any external person.
