Gnostic Anthropology : The Secret History of Humanity

For centuries, science and religion have been locked in battle, divided by opposing beliefs and eager to destroy one another. Perhaps their most intense conflict has been over the most fundamental question: the origin of mankind. All of us want to know: who are we? Who were our ancestors? What were ancient civilisations really like? Was Atlantis real? Lemuria? Adam and Eve? Did we really evolve from apes? Sadly, neither science nor religion has provided a satisfactory explanation of the facts; instead, their beliefs and theories are filled with inconsistencies and contradictions. Yet, what if both were right in some ways, and - with an open mind and more profound knowledge - one could see the truths that science and religion have described from their own perspectives? GNOSTIC ANTHROPOLOGY invites you to radically re-evaluate popular beliefs and theories about creation, evolution, the origin of humanity and history, and open your mind to a more expansive view of life. Fortunately, the ancient esoteric traditions have preserved the essential knowledge of history, evolution, and nature that answers our most fundamental questions and help us unite science and religion in a practical way. In 1888, H.P. Blavatsky published her landmark book The Secret Doctrine, an incredibly sophisticated outline of human origins and history that even Albert Einstein kept on his desk. Yet, few were willing to read it and even fewer were capable of understanding it. Sixty years later, Samael Aun Weor expanded on what she started, most notably in GNOSTIC ANTHROPOLOGY. He showed that we can only hope to understand reality when science and religion work together in harmony and we free ourselves of rigid, limiting beliefs and theories and be willing to consider the facts from fresh perspectives. The open mind can understand what the ancient esoteric teachings explain: that there are divine beings involved with the creation of species and they do so through evolution, devolution, natural selection and other laws, not only physically, but in all the levels and dimensions of nature. Furthermore, the myths of Hyperboreans, Lemurians, Atlanteans, Adam and Eve etc. are based on real events in history, but not in the way they are interpreted in popular culture. Instead, the reality of our ancient past is far more astonishing, epic and complex than we ever imagined. Even better, there are techniques that allow us to confirm the facts for ourselves.
