Boundaries

What we are not

We are a school, not a religion: no beliefs are required, and Gnosis is verified through your own direct experience. We are not an online course provider — classes are taught in person at our centres. Each centre is a service-area organisation, not a storefront or fixed premises open to visitors: course introductions are usually held at public community venues within the centre's service area, weekly classes are hosted locally, and venue addresses are shared with you when you register.

Cost & contact

What classes cost

When a new course opens, the introductory sessions are free. Ongoing weekly classes run on a contribution basis — around $15 a week at most centres ($15–20 in Melbourne's east) — to help cover venue costs. If that is beyond your means, you are still welcome to attend.
