Celle-ci se tiendra à 20h dans la salle de séminaire de l'hôtel «PAX», 22-24 rue du faubourg national à Strasbourg. Basée sur les travaux de l'anthropologue mexicain Samaël Aun Weor (1917-1977, plus de 70 livres et d'innombrables conférences), cette conférence est une véritable étude sur le rêve, les différents types de rêve, leur symbolisme, l'importance que nous leur accordons, et fait un lien entre le rêve et la sortie astrale, ou voyage extra-corporel. Cette conférence a aussi pour but de faire connaître les activités de l'association, qui propose des cours hebdomadaires sur l'anthropologie psychanalytique (connaissance de soi grâce à l'héritage des anciennes civilisations). Ceux-ci auront lieu tous les mardi à 20h, au 8 rue de Vendenheim. Les activités de l'A.G.E.A.C. sont accessibles à tout public. Une simple participation aux frais de 5 euros sera demandée.

Manchester, England (UK) - 10 September 2003


EVENT: Public lecture (No charge - All welcome)

The Four Pillars of Wisdom
Gnosis, the universal Gnostic wisdom, is a golden thread running through the art, philosophy, science and religion of the great civilizations of ancient. Could their insights be useful to us now?

DATE: 10th September 2003

TIME: 6.30 pm

VENUE: Committee Room, 2nd Floor, Manchester Central Library, St Peter's Square, Manchester M2 5PD, UK

CONTENT:

This lecture will provide an introduction to Gnosis and an opportunity of progressing on to the courses run by AGEAC, which are not-for-profit and include topics such as:

Spiritual culture of ancient civilisations:
What did the ancient know which we have forgotten? If their wisdom remains occult in esoteric symbols, how can it be accessed?

Avatars, prophets, ascended masters, saints, initiates:
All ranks of enlightened people have taught mankind humanity through the ages. Is there an identical process they all had to go through?

Astral unfoldment:
What is conscious astral projection? Who can do it and how? Is it natural?

Energy levels:
In a person there is a lot that remains unknown by modern scientific knowledge. How can one directly conduct those different energies?

Consciousness and individual identity:
What are we? Who is "I"? To what extent are we aware of ourselves?

The inner world:
One's intent, thoughts, emotions, and feelings are often too subtle to be conveyed. Yet these make up our lives. Is there a wisdom that can help us with those aspects so important for happiness?

Dreams:
Are dreams to inspire or delude? What can we learn from our dreams? Can we train ourselves to have useful dreams?

The meaning of life:
Life is precious, but why? What is the value of being? Is there a higher purpose to existence?

Destiny:
Are we in control of our lives? Is karma inescapable? Can we learn to manage our credit and debit to the universe?

The courses give background esoteric information, but their orientation is definitely practical. It is intended that those who follow the sequence of courses through will on completion have learned how to develop their awareness, relaxation, concentration, meditation, and other skills.

If you would have liked to attend the lecture but could not possibly make it, please send us an email so that we can inform you if more lectures are organised in the future.

In your locality there may well be a Gnostic group meeting regularly. Look out for posters advertising public lectures on topics of gnosis.

Normally lectures should be for free, or with only a very, very small fee as a contribution towards the hiring of venue or maintenance of premises. This varies between groups and localities.

The works by Samael Aun Weor shed light on quite a number of interesting topics, which often overlap and are always interconnected. The following list of topics is by no means exhaustive:
