40 Positive Reasons to Avoid Porn


40 Positive Reasons to Avoid Porn









A PASTOR 'S TESTIMONY ABOUT PORN


One of the ways we experience grace is by recognizing the positive power of pure choices.
Over my 24 years of pastoral ministry, I’ve had the occasion to work with multiplied hundreds of men who struggle on a regular basis with the snare of pornography.
I often say that the hardest thing about the Christian life is that it is so daily.   I have learned that the  hardest thing about the battle with lust and pornography is that it is so hourly.  Yet,  the battle can be won – one life, one day. one hour, one decision and one thought at a time.
Titus 2:11-12 challenges us to recognize that that grace of God instructs us to “deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age.”  One of the ways we experience this grace is by recognizing the positive power of pure choices. 
In my book, Think Before You Look – Avoiding the Consequences of Secret Temptation I present forty chapters, each presenting positive reasons to avoid the snare of pornography.  Here they are in summary as a positive does of pure prevention.

 I fully enjoy the pleasure of my love relationship with Christ.

Noxius effects of cigarette

Noxius effects of cigarette
cigarette contents
There are three foods that maintain the human life: the food itself; the air that we breathed and the impressions which is among all the most important. This is unkown by the science and humanity.
Smoker
The air has a vital function as purifier of the blood that circulates in the arteries and veins of our organism. Unfortunately, the highly selfish created interests and the society of consumption manipulates and imposes us customs, vices, ideas, etc. When the human being knows his own psychology and learn how to manage it will become the king of him and of the universe and will understand the motto written at the portico of the Temple of Delphos: "Homo, Gnoscete Ipsum”, which means “Man know yourself and you will know the universe and Gods”.

One of the burdens that more damage has made to the humanity is the horrible vice of cigarette. It does more than 20 years that, daily we heard speak of the damages that the cigarette causes in the human organism: cancer, heart attacks, pulmonary emphysema and although always we try to excuse our vice, does not let us don’t worry about the damage that it causes. Now, with concern it is observed the women also smoke cigarettes and some of them more than the men. In any meeting there is always someone that looks bad or makes some comment, disapproving that mechanical gesture that a smoker makes to ignite a cigarette. In order to eliminate any vice, it must be know the damage that cause and the techniques and methods that allow understand it at a psychological level, for later eliminate it.

What is the bad reality of cigarette-smoking?
- The cigarette contains more chemicals than the pharmacy of the corner.

Without exaggerating and to be exact, the cigarette contains 4,027 chemicals, of which 200 are well-known poisons and 60 are carcinogen. The Nicotine and Tar are the most noxious substances. The amount of Nicotine in a single cigarette can kill a person, but before smoking the amount necessary to accumulate the lethal dose in the blood, the person will suffer a long and painful disease.

- The cigarette causes similar or greater addiction than other drugs.
 Nicotine is the drug in tobacco that causes addiction. The nicotine is a powerful stimulant. It is the one that provides the flavor to the cigarette and forces the person to want every time greater amount. After inhaling the nicotine, the blood flow accumulates the substance in each cell of the organism and as the time pass, the cells are accustomed to the nicotine and requested more to the body. For that reason, the smoker becomes freak-out and nervous; with the cigarette "he calms himself" and the nicotine becomes a "tranquilizer" similar to caffeine. The experience demonstrates that the nicotine is among the drugs that create greater addiction, along with the heroin and caffeine.

- The tar that contains cigarettes is not so bad. 
If you smoke a package of cigarette per day, during a year, cigarette smokethe tar accumulated in the lungs,represent more than one fourth of the total amount that is spread within the organism. If you want to have an idea of how much it is that amount, exhale a puff of smoke toward a handkerchief. That horrible sticky brown substance, which causes the yellow-brown stain in the handkerchief is tar and imagine what all that tar looks like in your lungs considering that they are more absorbent than a sponge.

Tar destroys the thousand tiny air sacs called alveoli that the lung has to take oxygen from the air. This destruction originates a painful and non-cure disease: Pulmonary Emphysema or Asthma of the Smoker. The person with emphysema slowly asphyxiated.

- The cigarette contains carbon monoxide. This substance is the same gas emitted by the exhaust pipe of a power vehicle. The blood assimilates more easily the carbon monoxide than the oxygen. When someone smokes a cigarette, it is inhaling a poisonous gas that reduces the volume of oxygen that enters the bloodstream and it is necessary for the vital functions. Clearly the organism suffers the consequences.

- The cigarette contains Hydrogen cyanide. 
It sounds terrible, but it is the truth. This substance paralyses the cilia, the small hairs that protect and clean the lungs from strange particles and for this reason the poisons enter quickly into the lung; and the organism defends himself by coughing.

The cigarette is frequent cause of cardiac diseases.
Just after one cigarette, the problems begin. A simple puff accelerates the heart rate, from 5 to 20 beats per minute which means that the heart pumps more blood, but the nicotine induces the contraction of the blood vessels, in such a way that the blood cannot flow easily. Having the arteries blocked the person has more propensity to have an infarct. The risk of undergoing an infarct is 3 times greater in the smokers than in the nonsmokers. This is not rare if we consider that the nicotine and the carbon monoxide force the heart to work hardly.

woman smoking
- Pregnant women should not smoke.
 The baby that she is waiting needs all the oxygen that she can give him for his proper development. It is known that smoking is a frequent cause of abortions and premature childbirths, during the pregnancy; in addition, it has also been demonstrated that the children of the smoker mothers have difficulties in the language and learning.

- The cigarette causes damage to your friends and to your beloved relatives. (Secondhand smoke). 
This is a fashionable controversy. It is known that the smoke that others inhale, cause them the same noxious effects that if they smoke. The smoker is responsible for the health consequences of the people who are around him.

- There are radioactive particles in the cigarette.
 Some recent investigations have demonstrated that the cigarette contains radioactive particles that accumulate in the lung, in the lymphatic nodules and within the whole body; in addition the people who smoke, have 15 to 20 % more risk of cancer than those who never have smoked.

- Throat cancer.
 The nicotine produces throat cancer: an alive ulcer that practically does not allow the smoker to eat, neither to drink nor to sleep.

- The “light” cigarettes also cause problems. 
It is a myth to think that the noxious effects of cigarettes diminishes if people smoke cigarettes with a lower tar level, these also contain carbon monoxide and other poisons. Generally, when people smoke these “light” cigarettes, they smoke more.

Girl friends smoking- People who smoke are not elegant any more.
 As everybody knows the cigarette ends with physical health and people (even the smokers themselves) are surprised when someone smoke one, two or three cigarettes in a while. In addition the skin is damaged, the hair loses the natural brightness, the fingers and the teeth are stained and the clothes are impregnated with a disagreeable scent of whip. There is nothing else more unpleasant than a place stink of cigarette.

- Smoking indicates a lack of confidence in oneself.
 In the modern life, one of the characteristics more desired in one person is to have dominion over oneself and the security to act and to think. Generally, the smoker resorts to this vice to hide his nerves or to disguise his anguish.

The nicotine is an addictive drug and over time the dependency is stronger. People must understand the necessity to eliminate this vice. When someone comprehends and eliminates the vice of cigarette smoking, the body needs time to recover and decontaminate itself. In few months the lungs will recover their vitality and the heart will begin to beat normally. The nervous system will also be recovered.
The Pranayama that is teaching in our centers of conferences is a great exercise that helps the nostrils and lungs to return to their normality.

How To Avoid Pornography


The Internet is a big and wonderful place. Yet it holds many temptations for many people. Online pornography, for example, can become a time-consuming addiction for a lot of people. If it's becoming a problem for you, here are some tips to help you break the habit.

Show your spouse or partner your now-clean history as a reward and a way to regain trust.

Drugs Consequences

Drugs Consequences
Say no to drugs!
We have fallen on the false entertainment and debauchery. We live in a society where falseness and apparent world reigns over. We live in a society which seems to have lost all its values. The more technologically advanced the science has become, the more mechanized the world has become. The man has forgotten of himself nowadays because he is entertained himself with his machines and own creations.

The current man of this world has turned himself into a machine and the human being lives on a state of emptiness even though he apparently seems to have much. He lacks the principles, moral and love with himself and his neighbors. He wants to be away from pain and suffer under these circumstances. He gets involved in the drugs world and artificial trips which make him addicted in this reality of life.

Drug addict
Youth of our days is born in homes without warm, without affection, without love, without family ties. Youth is born with parents who are more interested in money and set a bad example for their sons. Our current youth is given a false education without moral and spiritual principles.


Youth is stirred to hatred and violence instead of being taught   good thinking. Humanity is nowadays defenseless to the drug problem due to the fact of having this false education in their homes and schools they attend. It is vulnerable and unprepared to face a totally artificial consumer society.

Gnosis and the The Centro Gnostico Anael -Anael Gnostic Center- help all those who want to change the rhythm of their hectic existence by means of techniques and psychological procedures which allow him or her to know himself or herself, to know his or her defects in order to remove them. This turns out to be the only real way to change.

All this stuff about drugs is awfully distressing. A lady who quit drugs told to a lecturer in a meeting, ”Whatever meeting you are tell people that almost all the friends I had when I used to consume drugs either have gone or are in jail for felony”.



Another drug addict expressed, “Wherever you go. Wherever you talk. Whatever you write. Tell the young people that never begin doing drugs because once they have begun it can be too late to get out of it”.

The drug addict’s friends are the same drug addicts by affinity law.
The psychological world of their thoughts is related to drug consuming and this becomes a psychological need. The drug addict’s organic cells are fed by way of the drugs so a need of consuming comes afloat. That is to say, the same organism demands for drug consuming as a way to feed itself.


.: Destructive consequences of illegal drugs addiction.


Illegal drugs use can destroy the alpha waves or rays which serve to connect the mind with the brain, thus causing severe mental deterioration and leading drug addicts to madness. Stimulant drugs such as cocaine, crack, marijuana, heroine, amphetamine and other illegal drugs, act on the cerebral cortex, spinal cord and the sympathetic and endocrine systems, speeding and causing imbalances in metabolism and physiological functions in such a way that the addict does not feel tired, nor hungry, etc.
 

As the high begins to wear off, the drug user feels weakened and enters a stage of depression, irritability and fatigue and hence, the craving for drugs is felt again leading to stronger and stronger impulses to use it thus making the drug addict to sink increasingly into the vicious cycle of addiction.

Marijuana: It is the main hallucinogenic drug and is the gateway to all other drugs. Among other effects, Marijuana produces allucinations, depression, persecution complex, melancholia, panic, paranoia, aggression, increased appetite, convulsions, chronic bronchitis, decreased biological defenses, decreased testosterone production resulting in impotence and infertility in men. In women: sexual coldness, menstrual disorders and decreased prolactin secretion.

kids playing with drugsMarijuana damages the brain, causing disarray in the arrangement of neurons and consequently resulting in incurable insanity.

Leads to a loss of emotion and indifference to his personal appearance. Abandonment of work and home obligations. Loss of the ability to concentrate and severe depressive states that can lead to suicide or murder. 



Basuco: It is the deadliest illegal drug ever invented, it can destroy the life of a youngster  in less than two years. Basuco is the bagasse or residue left after extracting cocaine base. 

Basuco contains sodium hydroxide, a strong caustic which destroys skin and mucous tissues; it also contains petroleum residues such as red gasoline blends with xylene and toluene, that destroy liver ; white cement, insecticides with high levels of arsenic affecting gastric and respiratory mucosal; solvents such as acetone and others, sulfuric acid, which destroys any organic tissue, benzoic acid, amphetamine, lidocaine, caustic soda, herbicides, crushed brick, lead, potassium permanganate, chloride and others.

Basuco is the dirtiest psychoactive substance that runs in Colombia and the chemicals used for its manufacture are of very poor quality.

Basuco irreversibly causes destruction of brain tissue and loss of memory. Gums become inflamed and teeth soften up to its fall.

Inhaled basuco smoke produces burns on the tracheal and bronchial tree with loss of the natural defenses of the lungs, inflammation of the liver tissue, disrupting the body's metabolism. Hepatitis without external symptoms, insomnia, exhaustion, permanent depression, paranoia, aggression, sexual impotence and premature aging. Basuco destroys all organic mucous tissues generating tracheal and bronchial irritation, chemical pneumonitis, pulmonary edema, excitement and depression of the central nervous system, and eventually convulsions and death.

A regular basuco dose wrapped in paper (known as “papeleta”) contains only 0.5 grams of cocaine, which makes it necessary to consume a greater quantity of these in order to feel the stimulus of basuco, thereby increasing the damage to the body, given that the actual content of drugs is minimal with respect to the amount of harmful agents contained therein. About 1,000 grams of basuco can be obtained from a single gram of cocaine. 

 

Cocaine: The purity of cocaine sold on the streets of Colombia is lower than in many other cities of the world; it is about 30%, while in Spain, for example, the purity is estimated between 40 to 60%.

A sample of cocaine tested in a laboratory gave the following analysis: Cocaine 23%, milk powder 27%, Mannitol (a diuretic) 11%, sugar 25%, Lidocaine or Xylocaine 14%. Acetylsalicylic acid was found in another sample with a concentration of 20%. Anesthetics, starches and sugars are incorporated into the cocaine in order to produce numbness of the mucous membranes and effects similar to cocaine base, in such a way that drug users are cheated and it is impossible for them to know what they are actually inhaling.


Drugs cause such a disorder of the brain neurons that hallucinations are generated. Hallucination is the most noticeable feature of a schizophrenic or insane person´s behaviour. Anyone who sees imaginary objects, feels things, hear voices, etc.. which are not real, has an imbalance of the ordering of brain neurons and is a demented person. Use of drugs, particularly marijuana, produce hallucinations driving its consumers to INSANITY.

damaged brain because of drugsDRUGS damage brain cells and cause decay in the gray  mass of the brain. (This has been scientifically proven by means of the scanner).



The burden of stimulation produced by drugs affects and weakens the sexual function, which is a driver of the human machine; at first, drug use results in increased sexual arousal but in time it exhausts the sexual energy and leads the drug addict to sexual indifference, then IMPOTENCE and eventually to HOMOSEXUALISM. Many famous drug addicts have become homosexuals.

It has been scientifically proven, that drugs use can considerably alter and degenerate the sexual genes. One of the consequences of drug abuse is the offspring of “monster” children, both psychically and organically as a result of negative genetic mutations. 



We knew the case of a drug addict whose son was monkeylike, looked like a monster and finally died.The child of another drug addict was deformed, mongoloid, looked like a monster because he had no waist and limbs were attached to the trunk. His parents confessed that they usually had sexual intercourse while being drugged. All of these cases involving physical and psychological monsters that occur nowadays are the patent and negative results of unnatural sexual and psychedelic combinations.A drugged man who climbs a tower in a city with a rifle, just with the sole purpose of killing passing by people is a psychic and paranoid monster.



DRUGS drain the vital or magnetic aura that energizes the physical body ; this effect lowers the defenses against disease causing fatigue and premature aging.

The terrible consequences of drug use makes the drug addict to become a sadic and criminal who commits  barbaric acts against society. Drugged youngs have raped their mothers, have violated children, have committed horrifying crimes, have set out fires, have murdered their own mothers and their homes have become living hells.

Mother suffering for drugsMothers, to whom we all owe love and worship, takes the most suffering and heartbreak when a loved children sinks into drug addiction.

Often behind the drug addict is hidden a sadist, murderer, sexual psychopath, drug dealer, etc. In Orihueca, Magdalena (Colombia), a drugged young male attacked his father and afterwards he slaughtered a whole family of four people wih a machete, raping a girl of 11 who he later killed.

Drug addicts usually do not like to work, they like living at the expense of others. When they do not get money to buy drugs, they seek to rob within his own house, at first those things that go unnoticed; then, as they loose their moral values and further degenerate, end up stealing whatever necessary, whether TV sets, radios, and even the most unusual stuff. They steal anything that they can to support their addiction. In Orihueca, Magdalena (Colombia), a drugged young male attacked his father and afterwards he slaughtered a whole family of four people wih a machete, raping a girl of 11 who he later killed.

As time goes by, drug addicts become what is known in Colombia as "social disposables", that is to say, nasty people who do not care whether they bath or not, whether walking dressed or naked or foul, shaved or unshaved, either wearing shoes or wandering on bare foot.
 

.: How to quit drugs?


Drugs permeate all strata of society. Great "personalities" are or were drug addicts, people who have occupied high offices and positions. Some have died as a result of this vice.

Unfortunately and further to the problem that aid to drug users is very superficial, science has now created a major barrier to the recovery of drug addicts, because we see how some psychologists and physicians,  say sincerely but erroneously that drug addiction is a disease that causes chemical changes in the brain and that, likewise alcoholism, is an INCURABLE DISEASE.

Problems at home

I believe that the best help that can be given to youth is to carry out prevention campaigns with simple counseling to each child so that they  can get aware of the crude reality of drugs, thus helping them to keep from sinking into this fatal vice.

Neither science with its progress, nor governments, nor any person have found the right answer to solve the problem of illegal drugs use. Young people have been the biggest victims of illegal drugs and have fallen into it because of their ignorance and unawareness that drug use destroys not just the physical body but also the spiritual SOUL. 


ALCOHOLISM

ALCOHOLISM
Noxious effects of drinking alcohol
In the path through life, human beings ignore almost everything. We neither know who we are nor where we are coming from or what is the purpose of our existence.

We are manipulated by unconscious forces that through publicity they impose us customs, vices, desires, etc.Couple drinking

Our purpose is to help human beings to be able to known themselves and can be liberated from this false and illusory world in which we live and where no one is happy.There is no need to discuss the effects of alcohol at length. Its name in Arabic (the same as the Algol star which represents the Head of Medusa cut off by Perseus) simply means the Demon... Whether in fact it is a demon or a malefic spirit when it possesses man, its effects are clear and easily demonstrable from the drunkenness, the delirium tremens and the madness, with forms of paralysis and other hereditary defects passed down through descendants.

Unquestionably, alcohol has a vibratory tendency to disintegrate, dissolve and destroy, being a product of destruction which also originates in our organism and which is eliminated through the skin. It dries our tissues and destroys nerve cells, which are gradually substituted with cartilage.

It is manifestly clear that alcohol tends to eliminate the capacity for independent thought and calm judgment since it fatally stimulates fantasy. It also shockingly debilitates ethical sense and individual liberty.

Dictators from the past, tyrants, were not unaware that it is easier to govern and enslave a nation of drinkers than that of abstainers. It is also well known that with a state of intoxication you can make someone accept any suggestion and carry out deeds which are contrary to their sense of decency and morality. The influence of alcohol on crime is notorious, so much so that it is unnecessary to stress the fact.

Hideous alcohol climbs the precipice and tumbles into the abyss of perdition; it is the malignant substance, which intimately characterizes the "Infernal Worlds". Abominable Algol turns incessantly within the vicious circle of time.

The abominable vice of alcohol has left behind itself hundreds of died people, idiot children, rancor and families completely abandoned for its cause. The alcohol have stultified and degenerated the human race.




.: Stages of alcoholism.


This vice has three perfectly defined aspects:


INITIATION:


The society has a false concept of manhood. The adolescent that is initiated into this horrible path does it because he wants to feel like a complete man. He believes that being a man means to be a drunkard, smoker, fornicator, adulterer, etc. The youngster reaches the crude vice of alcoholism, seduced by his friends believing that they are true men. However, the true man is the superman, which are the Initiates that have eliminated all their defects, have achieved the transmutation of the water in wine and became apostles. Men are: Krishna, Budha, Jesus, the 12 Apostles, Samael Aun Weor, etc.

Alcohol initiationBecause the alcohol cannot be transformed in the stomach, the human organism rebels against the first drinks by vomiting and upsetting stomach because at the beginning the organism is not yet intoxicated.

Little by little the humans obligate and teach their cells and atoms the necessity of alcohol.

The alcohol pass directly to the circulatory system and from there to the brain cells producing intense excitement and euphoria. In this stage, the man look like a peacock because he peacocks and imagines himself that people are looking at him but once the intense excitement of the brain cells has passed, the cells become drunkard and the individual losses control upon movement and mind.


INTOXICATION:


The human organism strongly rejects the harmful ingredient of alcohol to which it is not accustomed, but because the human wants to get drunkard and destroy himself, he obligates its own body to drink, later the organism ask for more and more drink. Thus, little by little the alcohol affects the nervous system generating the loss in the capability to coordinate the movements, imbalance and sometimes falls, if it is abused it can produce the locomotor Ataxia which is a paralysis proper of alcoholics.

DrunkThe alcohol produces depressive effects and an apparent sensation of heat due to the expansion of the blood vessels but really what happens is a loss of heat from the organism. In this stage of drunkenness the alcoholic looks like an ape, he has the rudeness proper of an ape, he becomes clown, dancer, figther, wins the love of somebody else’s wife and many of them give kisses to their friends. When they loss the complete control of movement they look like pigs crawling in the mud and dirt throwed in any street of the city or town.

On arriving at this second phase, the organism no longer feels well without alcohol. The intoxicated doctor can no longer carry out a surgical operation without his favorite drink; his pulse shakes, and if he carries out the operation, the results are very bad. The businessman can no longer do business without alcohol; he feels timid, nervous and fails. The worker is already incapable of working without his drink, he feels weak. Alcohol becomes a necessity for the intoxicated organism. The intoxicated one drinks and drinks, and becomes a human machine whose only thinking and purpose of existence is the alcohol.


DEATH.

Every alcoholic intoxication concludes with death. Death can result from an ulcer, hepatitis or cirrhosis of the liver, or generally from any bad aspect of the liver, stomach, etc. and nobody can guess right what is causing the death: would it be the heart, the cirrhosis, a car accident, a violent death as a consequence of an emotional or mental imbalance, internal hemorrhages, etc.? But the death of a drunkard in general is horrible and those who drink and do not eat while drinking are practically suicides.


The alcohol is the cause of 70% of the acciDeath by alcoholdents and of the majority of homicides. The alcohol produces excess of hydrochloric acid, which together with alcohol damages the tissues of the stomach walls, and the blood vessels generating ulcers and hemorrhages…the excess of hydrochloric acid produces alcoholic gastritis.

The liver has 5 important vital functions, among which it neutralizes the toxic substances and produces several vital substances to have a healthy body. The alcohol interrupts all of these functions and this is the principal cause of death in the alcoholic persons.

The death of a drunkard is very horrible. They become very nervous in clinics and hospitals due to the lack of alcohol, they clamor, shout, and demand the bottle of alcohol; their desperation is frightening. Some die vomiting blood, others with terrible bloody diarrhea, etc.

The alcohol burns the tail of the sperms, which originates stupid children. The alcoholic with the time will be suffering of high blood pressure and heart diseases. The most serious problem is that the alcohol for its depressive effects produces premature sexual impotence and this is very painful. We know numerous cases of people younger than 30 years old sexual impotent and sterile caused by alcohol.

Psychology of the Drunkard.

The totally intoxicated drunkard spends everything on the vice; when the drunkard does not have any more to spend, then he becomes a beggar, thief, swindler, or in the best of cases, nothing more than a simple slave of alcohol, a beggar of alcohol. The intoxicated loses all concepts of honor, dignity, responsibility, etc., and only one thing in life interests him, drinking. Alcohol becomes a vital, fundamental necessity for the intoxicated; that is all.

The serious things of life do not have any value for the drunkard; he is completely irresponsible. The intoxicated alcoholic is immoral in the most complete sense of the word. Dignity, word of honor, virtue, etc., have absolutely no importance for the intoxicated alcoholic. The hard-hearted drunkard laughs at all those human qualities, and even feels infinitely superior to his fellowmen.


.: Campaign against alcoholism.



The true, effective campaign against alcohol is achieved by explaining, with every detail, the three defined aspects of this horrible vice. These three aspects of the path of alcohol: initiation, intoxication, and death should be pointed out at home, in school, at the university, in academies, etc. Only creative comprehension can save people from falling into this horrible and frightening vice.

Really, the real education begins at home. The parents that drink give bad example to their children and lead them to the fatal path of the abyss. In home, children should be taught what is this horrible vice. This kind of teaching accompanied by a good example is radical in warning new generations against the vice of alcohol. Whatever is learned well at home is never forgotten. The bases of the young are found at homes, at school and in the streets.

The youth raised upon the base of the Fundamental Education results in fact edifying and dignifying…the youth raised upon false bases is by logic consequence a wrong path. The excess of the youth are letters drawn against the oldness, payable with high cost interests.

Without Fundamental Education, the youth results in a perpetual drunkenness: it is the fever of the error, of the liquor and of the animal passion.

The gnostic science teaches the fundamental psychological techniques that lead to the self-knowledge, to the perfeccionism and to a better life. The gnostic science fights for the human regeneration, to recuperate and raise the moral and spiritual values scorned at the moment by the atheist intelectualism. Moreover, it teaches the 3 factors of revolution of conscience and the inner self-exploration by means of the self-observation to know the causes and eradicate from us error and pain.



MESSAGE FROM SAMAEL AUN WEOR: "Listen very well gnostic students, in the light of the Sun or of the Moon, of the day or of night with the demon Algol you must be radicals. The alcohol is very traitorous and sooner or later gives us a stab in the back".

Our purpose is that the human beings know themselves and can liberate from false and illusory world in which we live and where no one is happy.
