Events and Gatherings

Join us in Miami for a rich weekend with two parallel investigations: the intimate psychological portraits of 17th-century Dutch masters and the profound limitations of divine intervention.

The ancient Greeks created their gods and heroes, not for mere entertainment, but as precise maps of human psychology. Each myth encoded specific insights about our inner workings—our struggles with identity, our relationship to higher influences, and the eternal conflict between our mechanical nature and our potential for transformation.

Join us in Athens to explore the foundations of Western civilization. We will survey the mathematical precision of the temples of the Acropolis, the hillside theaters where the first dramatic performances took place, sculptures of long-forgotten deities, and the sacred site of the Oracle at Delphi. We will aim to understand how the ancient Greeks conveyed and preserved their wisdom in architecture, sculpture, and dramatic works—wisdom whose relevance continues to pulse through our lives today.

Explore the cosmic architecture that shapes our inner and outer worlds in this intensive six-day online workshop. The Laws of Three and Seven, known in ancient wisdom traditions, represent universal principles that govern everything from celestial mechanics to human psychology. Each day, we’ll delve more deeply into practical applications of these laws through guided exercises and group discussions.

Identification is one of the most pervasive and limiting features of our psychology. It occurs when we become wholly absorbed in whatever captures our attention, losing ourselves in the process. This abandonment of our sense of self is diametrically opposed to self-remembering. Self-remembering is precisely the attempt to experience both the ‘I’ and the ‘here’ of ‘I am here.’

Join us to explore the connection between celestial bodies and human temperament. This cosmic knowledge originated with ancient Mesopotamian priest-astronomers who first observed planetary movements as divine patterns influencing human affairs. The seven celestial bodies—Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn—were each considered to govern distinct aspects of human character, creating recognizable psychological types. These types are still embedded in our language as “mercurial,” “jovial,” or “saturnine.”

Rome reveals itself in layers, like an archaeological excavation of time. The magnificent Baroque and Renaissance monuments that dominate the city’s skyline give way to earlier Christian churches below, which themselves were often built directly on top of Roman temples and civic structures.

Towards the end of his life, Ouspensky came to realize that something was missing in the fourth way as he knew it. He felt he had stumbled across something significant in his travels through India before he met Gurdjieff. Following Ouspensky’s cue, we will delve into the rich tapestry of Hindu mythology and philosophy, seeking to discover how its cosmology and practices may be synthesized into a powerful tool for self-remembering.

Karnataka is a treasure trove of architectural marvels spanning centuries of history. The temples of this southern Indian state stand as silent witnesses to the development of religious streams in this region. From the intricate carvings of Hoysala temples to the grand Vijayanagara complexes, these structures showcase the diverse artistic styles that flourished over the ages.

Where do our methods come from? Where does the extensive theory that supports them find its origins? Join us for a journey to the ancient and diverse roots of The Old New Method…

Join us for another week-long online workshop on Esoteric Christianity. We will meet for six consecutive days to explore the inner meaning of the Christian teaching, how it was structured on the Old Testament, how it was designed to complement and complete it, and how it highlighted fundamental truths about human psychology. We will anchor our lessons in the mosaics of Rome, Ravenna, and Venice…

Join us to explore the Esoteric Christian heritage of Ravenna, Padua, and Venice… We will begin by studying the ancient mosaics of Ravenna, head northward to visit Giotto’s Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, and end in the picturesque canal-city of Venice.

Join us for a three-day online workshop on the “Real Change.” We will meet for three consecutive days to explore the different parts that make up the human machine, understand the tool of self observation, and how it can be used to transform ourselves. Each session will last one hour and will conclude with practical exercises. We will have a channel to share observations and questions which will be discussed the next day in the workshop.

Join us for a weekend in Campania, Italy, that will include a visit to the Greek Temples in Paestum and a live organ concert performed by Maria Mokhova. We will take advantage of our time together to accelerate our work and deepen our connections with each other.

Join us for a week-long online exploration of the inner meaning of the Mesoamerican Ball Game. We will meet for six consecutive days to study the origins of this ritual, its appearance in the Mayan Book of Council The Popol Vuh, it’s astronomical significance, and how this spectacle represented the struggle between the opposing forces of day and night, good and evil, and life and death.
