Science and method to promote conscious evolution

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference from Psychology?
A: "Let us now consider how greatly the position of the undergraduate changes as soon as he decides to adopt our method. No sooner does the student begin to delve into the arcane of the Logosophical Science than he realizes that there is a wide difference between the current Psychology, which lacks definite contents, and the logosophical conception, which leads man to the exact comprehension of the intricate psychological topics, especially when the individual has to face the requirements of his own inner needs."

"Logosophy leads man to investigate and analyze his own psychological structure, in his inner self. It is as if the doors to his inner world were opened to him - a world unknown up until this moment, no matter how much he believed he knew about it. He is now more attracted by the truth that he discovers about himself than the truth he believed he knew about others. He comprehends and consequently admits the error into which psychologists have fallen as they conduct their investigations outside of themselves, without the slightest support of their conscious inner experiences. To these initial results other results follow progressively. Through the initiation of the process of conscious evolution the undergraduate perceives the influx of a new current of energy flowing from this reality which he has set in motion within himself."

Q: What is the difference from Philosophy
A: "The science of Logosophy differs entirely from the various philosophical systems, which are reserved for those persons who venture to add them to their mental assets as a means of keeping abreast of the problems they pose. Logosophy does not pose problems, but solves them individually, because each man is an individual entity who needs to solve his own problems; in doing so, he places himself in a position to help others solve for themselves the problems which confront them. This means that the sources of Logosophy are within everyone's reach, since Logosophy's powerful and beneficial influence extends to others through the generosity which it develops in those who cultivate its teaching. The logosophical cognitions, as already stated act in the inner self of the individual curing the human deficiencies; for this action, altruism soon occupies a prominent place in the life of the student of this science, banishing forever egoism, a psychological fault that, in and by itself, is enough to frustrate every prospect of individual and collective betterment."

Q: What is the difference from ideologies and political conceptions?
A: "The science of Logosophy also differs fundamentally from all the political conceptions and ideologies, because these are all based, without exception, on a disguised or manifested domination of the human masses. Not one of them has ever concerned itself in helping the citizen to develop his individual integrity, nor taught him to become self-sufficient in the acts of his life and to be truly conscious of his responsibility as a member of society or social group of which he is a part, without losing, of course, his own identity, his freedom, and independence. In summary, Logosophy demonstrates that positive results will only be obtained when we start out with the betterment of the individual in order to achieve the betterment of society, instead of proceeding in a reverse manner."

Q: Is Logosophy a religion?
A: "Judging from the state of inquietude, dissatisfaction, doubt, and desolation manifested by the majority of those who seek, or have sought, the aid of our teachings, we can, with good reason, infer that the occidental civilization, that is to say, its culture - which is its content - finds itself on the verge of an inevitable collapse. For centuries, it has not improved its concepts which have remained shackled to what has been called "tradition", without having thought, of course, that man's great possibilities concerning his evolution must not be severed because this would disqualify him for the complete fulfillment of the highest objective of his existence. With millenary obsequiousness, man has been inculcated with ideas and beliefs which have served only to harden his feelings, and to immobilize certain zones of his mind, those which respond precisely to the inner dictates of approximation to his Creator, his God. This is exactly what we have seen emerge to the surface of man's individual world no sooner is he lead to examine, which lucid judgment, upon what reality his blind faith is based on, and whether he has ever paused to reflect upon the need of being certain about a question of such transcendence. We have found in almost every individual the same obstinate resistance to carry out such an examination of conscience. And in every one of them - without exception - we have seen the manifestation of the fear of being shown the error in which they are living. As if this error, which they have unconsciously adhered to, would miraculously be converted into a truth in compensation for their blindness and for the sole fact of having believed it.

Nevertheless, in spite of this inconvenience, we have been able to verify the efficacy of our method, as it successfully acts upon the mental and sensitive systems of those who, in such conditions, come to the logosophical source to be thoroughly informed about its essential contents. For truth's sake, we must point out that it took quite a lot of effort to bring back to reality those persons who had been strongly inculcated with ideas and beliefs on the religious type. It is easy for the expert logosopher to discover the predominant characteristic of this class of individuals who, in their majority, have been subjected, from their early years, to the process of fixation of certain rigid, and therefore static, images concerning their spiritual education. We have also witnessed their awakening, and their manifest emotion of happiness, as they experience for the first time the sublime sensation of thinking and feeling with complete freedom, a possibility which, deep within their souls, had already manifested itself as an intensely felt necessity.

This proves that the prohibitions, established by certain communities with respect to childhood and which last throughout the believer's life, are entirely harmful to the spiritual and evolutive development of the human being."

Q: What is the logosophical conception of God?
A: "For Logosophy, God is the Supreme Creator of the Universal Science, because all the processes in Creation perform their function pursuant to the dictates of His Wisdom. Man's science is but a faint reflection of the latter, which is the permanent source of all his inspirations. This is the reason why Logosophy often mentions the name of God; a God stripped of artifices Who shows His earthly subjects the plenitude of his natural splendor in His Magna Scientia and in His Absolute Truth."
From the book Initiation Course Into Logosophy page 15

"It should be admitted that, since the conception of God is unique and unembraceable in its entirety by virtue of its unlimited cosmic contour, each human being must construct this image within himself, to the extent that his cognitions permit hum to approach His Great Image, comprehending, as far as lies in his power, the greatness of His incommensurable Wisdom.

God is not, nor could He ever be, the implacable avenger who flings souls into hell to suffer definitive disintegration, nor is He either the supposed Almighty Lord of this or that religion. To believe in such a utopia is to implicitly deny His Omnipresence, His Omnipotence and Omniscience."

Q: How does one study Logosophy?
A: "The logosophical cognitions - we have often pointed out, and will repeat as many times it as need be - must not be read or listened to without special attention, nor should they be hastily absorbed by one's understanding, for they are meant to create a new individuality. They will inevitably have to be assimilated by one's conscience. Moreover, logosophical cognitions make up an indivisible whole within the conception from which they originate; this is the reason that must lead the student to a profounder investigation, so as to comprehend them in their totality, and not as isolated fragments."

"... let us say that Logosophy is studied and practiced following the method specifically prescribed by this science. This method - essentially psychodynamic - prescribes study and practice made individually to be complemented by the interchange and practice made collectively."

"The individual study and practice comprises three stages which extend throughout one's life, recurring in ascending progression. In its initial steps, it is thus specified:

a) First stage: Consists of the interpretative study of the main subjects included in the program and the student can study others of his particular interest. It begins with a general review of the logosophical books in order to obtain a general idea of the whole conception which has inspired them. The next step is a thorough study of the topics comprised in the program, with precise directions concerning logosophical achievement. As the student gradually progresses in reading and delving into the topics, he will ask of himself what he has understood, and then will make note of it. This is a very recommendable practice, since it permits aggregating the progressive steps taken towards grasping the values contained in each cognition.  This aspect of the process, which is documented for one's own orientation, also contributes with great efficacy to the clarification of ideas and concepts."

b) Second stage: Is characterized by a greater intensity towards the study with the objective of one's conscious formation, while closely observing the oscillations of one's temperament, the factors which influence them, and so forth. Here, the teaching is studied more in depth, adding at this time to one's training the application of the teachings to life in the many distinct areas in which he carries on his daily activities.

c) Third stage: completes the cycle, enabling the mastery of cognitions and the creation of new aptitudes which are to be used for the benefit of one's individual process of conscious evolution. It will be easy to understand that logosophical maturity is attained when, following one's technical apprenticeship, basic comprehensions of the teachings are elaborated and put to use in the experimental field of one's life. Its correct application converts the teaching into a cognition. The cognition awakens one's conscience to the reality which gives substance to such cognition, emanating from the conscience, as acquired aptitudes, every time the circumstances require it. The habitual exercise of the consciously acquired aptitudes gradually perfects them. This is how their daily use contributes to imprint in the individual, with indelible traits, the archetypal emblem of the spiral represented in the new science by the psychodynamic method which Logosophy has established for the live, ultra scientific processes, destined to develop the superior qualities of the human species."

"We have mentioned before that our method prescribes, as a complement to the study and practice of the logosophical teaching done individually, the study and practice accomplished collectively. The student's comparison of his interpretations or comprehensions of the teachings with those achieved by other students of Logosophy, who are approximately at the same level of investigation, will permit him to verify whether his intelligence has perceived all of the aspects of the topic studied, or, at least, the more accessible ones. It follows then that individual study is, to a certain extent, inseparable from the collective study."
