The Modern Mystery School is a community of individuals dedicated to personal growth, inner peace, and heart-centered wisdom. The Guides and Healers within this lineage are committed to empowering others and providing healing through proven tools and practices.
In 1997, Founder Gudni Gudnason made the ancient teachings of this Mystery School accessible to the public, helping people worldwide live more empowered and fulfilled lives. Since then, the school has grown, with Guides and Healers sharing these teachings in over 55 countries.
A Mission of World Peace
The school’s mission is to inspire greater self-awareness, healing, and peace. By awakening to our true selves and mastering limiting thoughts or behaviors, we can take full ownership of our lives and contribute positively to the world. As we find inner peace, we’re better equipped to create meaningful, lasting change around us. This is an exciting time, as we can integrate modern technology with a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world.
An Unbroken Lineage
The Modern Mystery School traces its teachings back through an unbroken lineage of 3,000 years, connected to the time of King Salomon. As one of the seven remaining ancient Mystery Schools on the planet, it’s the only one open to the public today. Through its teachings and path of initiation, people can access transformative wisdom to support their personal journey.
Lineage Holders
The keys for the lineage are held by the highest level of initiate, known as Sovereign Ipsissimus. The title “Ipsissimus” honors the role of lineage holder, with the highest level of responsibility and authority to maintain the keys and existence of the unbroken lineage throughout the ages.
