About VOPUS

Throughout history many people have wanted to lift the veil of mystery that covers the great truths of existence: Where do we come from? Where are we going to? What is the purpose of our existence? What is there beyond the material world? What is there beyond death?

In their search for answers to these questions, some of these people have appealed to ancient metaphysical philosophies, whilst others embraced the dogmas and rites of the different churches; however, as these churches did not tell the whole truth, they could not quench the thirst that was burning in the heart of the sincere seekers. And those who chose the doctrine of agnosticism and materialism, and denied God became slaves of matter, of fatalism and of their instincts.

This natural aspiration of passing beyond the dimensions of the visible world in order to find a superior answer of a liberating nature, is stronger in a world in which moral and spiritual decadence, ambition, pride, the desire for power, and the satisfaction of the inferior passions have become a common way of life.

Vopus intends to investigate and offer a knowledge that can help the human being penetrate the mysteries of Creation, and make contact with his/her own divine nature. This is the Gnostic knowledge, the wisdom that engenders life and explores the primary truth that gave birth to the world's wisdom in all its branches: art, science, philosophy and religion.

Although studying different aspects of the human culture, different religions and beliefs that have existed all over the world, VOPUS is not a religion, nor does it propose a new one, and it does not oppose any religious belief either. Throughout the millennia the light of wisdom has been expressed in many ways, always in accordance with the specific needs of each time and place. Thus all religions are different manifestations of the universal religion that existed and will exist in all ages.

Vopus offers all of us the Gnostic teachings, which have been brought once again to the consciousness of modern men and women by Samael Aun Weor. He was a contemporary writer who accomplished (by means of his intense study and practice) a spiritual synthesis that is broader and more powerful than all that has been known and practiced in our present time.

This site and this knowledge are for those who wish to drink directly from the source of the Mysteries, for those who dare to explore personally the invisible and unknown world. And they do so not out of curiosity or because of a whim, but because they feel that within themselves there is something that is mortal but at the same time something that is eternal - and that eternal aspect yearns for its self-realization.

Hi! I love your sites and the principles by which it operates. My comment is about the apparent Vopus Symbol: there are many that will be unable to relate to the symbol due to its material lack of universal representation of All things. And by all things, I refer to the cosmos, or cosmic consciousness. How do you respond to the suggestion that symbols purporting to represent Universal Truth that contain visual images of a human being (especially one of a certain demographic) fail to encompass within it the Infinite Reality of Consciousness and thus limit the observer within the paremeter of connotations therein? With sincere curiousity, Mik

Fantastic. ..eye opening knowledge. I have studied all the doctrines of all the churches. The Bible itself tells us that the whole world is dscieved and the serpent decieves them as he is an arch deciever. They knowth not the truth.They are in bondage. if all the churches have so called holy spirit then why they teach different things? One spirit different teachings? Why? I would like to read more on your site and see if you really got the truth. So

I would like to state to Mik Richardson, and the staff of Vopus, that the symbol chosen representing the Divine Feminine, the womb of the world, Nut, Miriam, etc. seems rather appropriate. I would like to pose the question, how exactly would one represent "Universal Truth" in a symbol? Master Samael Aun Weor states that the Truth is that which is unknowable from moment to moment. What possible symbol could we use to represent that? The thing about the ultimate Truth is, it has no form or definition. Thus, there is no appropriate symbol for such a thing. Any symbol chosen would be a mere construct of the subject Intellect. This is why it is stated that though shalt not worship any graven image, because the Absolute has no form, thus it cannot be symbolized by anything. The closest thing we have is emptiness, like a womb.
