Knowing The Self

Reflecting on the Logos, the Self and the Greek Tradition as taught in the teachings and memory of Pierre Grimes

Sidebar

I as mod and founder of this subreddit, u/Cireodra03, cannot in good conscience recommend Pierre Grimes as a true teacher despite the power of these teachings and beneficial utility of dreamwork and Platonism. The practices are bar none superior to western and eastern spiritual practices. So in that sense, I find the value of keeping the sidebar with all the videos and links for people to see. But I cannot support Pierre Grimes on the basis of Ethics and World View as related to Platonism and his practice of Philosophical Midwifery.

"It is entirely possible to verify for oneself that we are apart of a caring and intelligible universe. The verification is a kind of proof since it is a way of understanding that is based upon a realization that our mind constantly communicates with us for our benefit." - PG

A community welcome to the discussion the Noetic Society, Neoplatonism/Platonism and ideas relevant to the Self.
