“The esoteric: a path for human perfectness.” The title really says it all.
It’s a brand new website, the first of its kind in the Arab world and it happens to be Lebanese.
According to its developers who insist on simply being referred to as the “friends of the white knowledge” www.esoteric-lebanon.org is a gateway for reaching within one’s soul and awakening inner faculties.
Esotericism is, by definition, the science of self-knowledge and development of the inner being. It abets meditation, the science of the inner self, and concentration, the power of the mind.
The website is a comprehensive, detailed and proficient panorama of “self-knowledge and self-revealing techniques that are made accessible to all seekers through this portal, the first of its kind in Lebanon and the Arab world.”
Some of these techniques include tutorials on “how to benefit from the etheric vibrations while breathing, on how to unfold the layers of consciousness and how to awaken the astral body.”
Many other esoteric themes are revealed and discussed, such as “awakening the etheric glands, otherwise known as the chakras …”
The site also includes a complete study on colors and tunes and their effects on the inner centers of consciousness.
The relation of colors to numbers, of atoms to vibrations, of brain to mind are furthermore conveyed.
The website’s jewel is “the human pyramid:” understanding the mystery of numbers, mental exercising and reinforcing concentration, memory and intuitiveness. In these three elements lie all the strength and “perfection” of a human body and soul.
An entire section of the website is dedicated to publications dealing with esoteric themes, such as “telepathy and the sharpness of awareness, precognition, thought reception, elimination of negative qualities, and uniting thought and emotions.”
Around 32 esoteric books are published in Arabic and are available on request for translation in other languages.
Additionally, courses, orientation and exercises are available in weekly lessons. The schedule for these activities is updated each week on the web site. According to the friends of the white knowledge, these exercises are “monographs to esoteric students for verification through practical application.”
Comprising many scientific subjects and discussions on the practical application of an esoteric way of life, the website’s content is delivered by a group of “sages” to students of self-knowledge, hence promoting a deeper understanding and a comprehensive knowledge underlying man’s spiritual roots and origin.
It also deals with the composition and hidden side of man’s nature in the light of his future evolution. It explains the subject in a simple and smooth style, and in a way far from fanaticism or scientific rigidity.
The website is a nice software sweet-and-sour pancake of bold programming skills and animation effects, topped with an uncomplicated information layout and an intelligent display of graphics. The colors various shades of lilac and lavender are very eye-friendly. Lavender and its derivatives are, according to the esoteric science of colors, very “spiritual” hues.
