This book (given in its original language and an English translation) is a wonderful introduction to an ancient teaching present in all Authentic Esoteric Traditions. In it Samael Aun Weor gives the foundation for the Esoteric Work (which is: the 'Work upon Oneself') in a format that is easy to read and digest.
The chapters are brief, but the subject matter is profound. This book offers us an opportunity to take a journey into the interior of ourselves: to see the secret causes of all our thoughts feelings and actions. With this knowledge, we can begin our exploration and observation of ourselves which is how we acquire Knowledge of Ourselves:
"The starting point of official science, in its practical side, is the observable. The starting point for the work on oneself is self-observation, the self-observable... The type of knowledge that transforms someone internally can never be achieved through external observation."
This knowledge is called GNOSIS.
