Archeosofica is a school of
Esoteric Christianity founded byTommaso Palamidessi in 1968 in Rome. The school doesn't require neither a fee nor the subscription of any membership. The school of Archeosofica is free and offers a program of research and of experiments by supplying booklets and other texts. The foundation of "Archeosofica" is rooted in Palamidessi's spirit of collaboration on the spiritual realisation of man and woman. According to Tommaso Palamidessi, "Archeosofica" is"an esoteric school that prepares for Initiation: a free school for free scholars, who must not feel like pupils nor apprentices, but brothers who listen to the living voice of other brothers, or who wish to doctrinate themselves by their writings that present the results of serious studies and experiences: Brothers who have started out with a mentality free of prejudices and who have analyzed, chosen and accepted the best of all the other ancient and modern esoteric schools." [ Palamidessi Tommaso, "3rd Booklet of
Archeosophy ", ed Archeosofica, 1968]"It is a call addressed to all, and it does not matter if they belong to the different communities (Theosophists, Anthroposophists, Martinists, Rosicrucians, Catholics, Yoghists, etc.). The Brotherhood is only one, and it can have only one verb: Love one another; only one Master:
Jesus theChrist ." [ Palamidessi Tommaso, "3rd Booklet ofArcheosophy ", ed Archeosofica, 1968]Tommaso Palamidessi's thought about co-operation and Fraternal Spirit and is repeated more than once in his works and reveals the idea which inspired the foundation of "Archeosofica"
"...we are all brothers and we must unite, love each other and work together. The Ecumenical Council is not only of the religions, but also of the esoteric societies. The times require the co-operation of all, and we offer a Way which is safe, swift, direct, towards the overcoming of one's own moral, psychic, spiritual and biological state." [ Palamidessi Tommaso, "1st Booklet of
Archeosophy ", ed Archeosofica, 1968]The Archeosophical Society
