Mind science has been attracting many cultures for years. Reasons for engaging in mind science vary from one person to another, one culture to another. One of the most popular mind sciences is meditation such as yoga where the mind is trained to be devoid or deluded of other thoughts and concentrate on one object called mantra. But there remains one mind science that has long been kept from the knowledge of humanity save for a few who are members of an ostracized group called Druze.
Even among them, there certain limitations and they are constrained from their external environment. The exclusivity remains a mystery up to these days and still majority remains clueless on the spirituality of a silent brotherhood that has been known to exist for a thousand years which started in Egypt. There are many religious organizations, and even Islam, have criticised the spirituality of this sect, believing that Druzism is occultic and satanic in nature.
The ancient wisdom that this mind science faithfully adheres to is the basis of its belief contained in a forbidden manuscript of the Brotherhood of the Druze of the Levant. This gnosticism is believed by the brotherhood to be their guiding principle in living their lives of austerity and care for their brethren. Gnostics is a Greek derivative which means true knowledge and from this true knowledge is born the spiritual mind science that they adhere to and believe in.
There are many several doctrines associated with their spirituality that made them distinctive from other beliefs and cultures. Furthermore, the ancient wisdom incorporated in the mind science is believed to be incomprehensible in its form and content by human mind. However, they do believe that the effect penetrates instinctively. According to the mind science, the psychological mind is prone to understand reality reversely. Hence, the spirituality of the Druze is wrongly perceived and this could have paved the way why the brotherhood has suffered negative criticisms and persecution.
According to the manuscript, the mind is a powerful tool that is responsible in communicating to the soul. The soul, in turn, is responsible for the human emotions which the lies in the human body. The theories surrounding the spiritually has a universal nature, culled from theories of ancient Greece particularly the Greek philosophers, the likes of Plato and Aristotle whom they highly regard. The Druze have maintained to be exclusive and secretive because of the fear of persecution and reprisal from the majority of the worlds people especially of religious nature.
The Gnostic Brotherhood is known to have historically struggled up to these days. They do believe that their spirituality relies on the extraordinary logic that is instinctively recognized by the mind as its innate self, the moment it is revealed. The form in which this mind science is best understood if one is open-minded and free from any biases. However, the keys to perceiving the forsaken identity in its truest sense are vital to understanding the exclusive mind science of the Gnostic Druze Brotherhood.
