Logosophy is an ethical-philosophical doctrine that was developed by the Argentine author Carlos Bernardo González Pecotche (1901–1963). It offers methods and aids that should lead to self-knowledge. The author himself describes it as a new kind of humanism .

history

Its name combines the Greek roots " lógos " and "sophía", which the author took over and gave them the meaning "creative word" or "expression of the highest knowledge", or "original science" or " wisdom ".

Logosophy came into being in 1930 with the establishment of the logosophical foundation in Córdoba , Argentina .

Logosophy describes itself as a new and coherent science that reveals a method that leads people to the knowledge of themselves, of others, the Creator and the universal laws. In addition, she sees herself with her new view of life and people as well as their psychological and mental structure as a new way of feeling and understanding life.

Logosophy defines thoughts as autonomous and from the individual will independent, psychological entities that arise and work under the influence of one's own or someone else's moral and psychological state. The precise selection of thoughts would activate the mental abilities so that the person can think freely and recognize the true goals of life.

The author

Carlos Bernardo González Pecotche , also known as Raumsol, was born on August 11, 1901 in Buenos Aires , Argentina, to Jorge N. González and Maria Pecotche de González. He married Paulina Eugenia Puntel on October 8, 1924. Their son Carlos Federico González Puntel was born on July 10, 1925. Carlos Bernardo González Pecotche died on April 4, 1963.

The method

According to its author, the logosophical method is unique in its core ideas and adapts to every understanding, since it offers it precisely that part of the knowledge that it can absorb.

Through the logosophical method, the human being can get to know his intellect, in the entirety of its complex functioning, more profoundly. Logosophy offers him the opportunity to conduct a full study of his psychology: his character, his tendencies, his thoughts, his qualities, his deficiencies and everything that directly or indirectly plays into his mental faculties and takes into account the state of his mind.

aims

The main goals of logosophy are:

  • The conscious evolution of man.
  • The self-knowledge that makes up the secret of the existence of every individual.
  • The integration of the spirit so that man can use the values ​​belonging to him.
  • The knowledge of universal laws to adapt life to their wise principles.
  • The knowledge of the mental, transcendent world, in which all constructive ideas and thoughts have their origin.
  • Building a new life and future by developing one's skills.
  • The development and deep knowledge of the functions of studying, learning, teaching, thinking and putting into practice.

Logosophical institutions

The logosophical foundation is an institution under private law, without profit-oriented, political or religious interests, which has been recognized as a corporation of public benefit by the government of the countries in which it is active.

Since in the logosophical method, as a supplement to individual study and individual practice, study and exchange in groups are important, an exchange of knowledge and experiences takes place in the cultural centers of the foundation.

Currently (2010) logosophical institutions exist in the following countries:

There are also study centers for logosophy in other countries, such as Australia , England , Germany , Italy , Canada and Portugal .
