No. The Order is a philosophical and transformational education system. We study wisdom from many traditions without requiring belief in any particular doctrine. There's no worship, no guru figure, no isolation from society. You maintain your existing religious beliefs (or lack thereof) while learning practical wisdom and transformation techniques. Members are encouraged to think critically and maintain outside relationships and responsibilities.

Anamnesis is a Greek term meaning "unforgetting" or "recollection." In Platonic philosophy, it refers to the soul's ability to remember eternal truths it knew before birth. We use it to describe the process of recovering your innate wisdom and authentic self that's been obscured by conditioning and modern life.

We preserve and transmit authentic teachings from both Eastern and Western traditions, but the integration and progression system is unique to our Order. More importantly, we combine ancient wisdom with modern psychological tools and somatic practices, creating a synthesis unavailable in traditional sources alone.
