The three factors for the revolution of consciousness:
1) Death of Ego
2) Birth of Soul
3) Sacrifice for Humanity
Gnostic Centers are not businesses, and they do not make profits for anyone. The teachings are free, but maintaining a center of light where these priceless teachings can be transmitted has costs which are largely covered by the administrators and students.

Death, Birth, & Sacrifice: The Path of Love
These factors are a practical and intimate work, a radical path of transformation. The three factors are the keys to transform our lives for a greater purpose.
MYSTICAL DEATH
MYSTICAL DEATH
The dissolution of the egoic nature, the selfishness which keeps us psychologically disconnected from Spirit and our fellow man. This is the mystery of dying in our multiple and fractured ego, what the Tibetan Buddhists call the psychic aggregates, so that the light of the essence shines.
The ego is multiplicity, complication, entanglement, conditioning and entrapment of the beautiful essence, so that purity, love and happiness become distorted into darkness, hatred and suffering.
Through prayer, meditation, humility, patience and courage we gradually dissolve the psychic aggregates to liberate the consciousness from the slavery of the ego.

ALCHEMICAL BIRTH
The generation of psychological and spiritual structures inside of ourselves so that we may be vehicles of divine love. These structures are known as the mercabah, or chariot of the soul.
Alchemy from the Arabic Al- Khemia meaning “the chemistry of God”.
Alchemy first and foremost is about love, the One Law above all else, which dissolves all other cosmic laws. In all aspects of life, and spirituality, the most important virtue and the highest guide is selfless love.
Within the vessel of our body, we perform the alchemical work.

SACRIFICE FOR HUMANITY
The path of the bodhisattva, who vows to enter Nirvana only after every single being has eliminated their own suffering and entered into the heavenly realms.
The law of entropy means that the path of least resistance for all of creation is to enter into chaos and destruction. Only with the force of sacrifice can the law of entropy be overcome.
Within ourselves we sacrifice our inhuman elements, so that others may have peace and prosperity.
There is a Sufi proverb that states, “Those who are controlled by the lower self must serve it; those who control the lower self serve others.”
The Gnostic path is of sacrifice through our internal work with love in our hearts, so that our path may be illuminated to the benefit of all humanity.
