Samael Aun Weor's profound life's work as author, anthropologist, philosopher, healer and esoterist, attracted a wide interest with the worldview he developed. He published numerous books from the period of 1950 to 1977. As well as an author he gave hundreds of lectures on the Gnostic spiritual path, with the sole aim of giving a superior knowledge for the benefit of all humankind. In a direct and clear style he reveals the teachings of the ancient Initiatic Mysteries and provides answers to the eternal questions:

What is the origin of humanity, of the Earth, of the races, of all that has been and will be? The books of Samael Aun Weor, reveal an extraordinary knowledge, and demonstrate a wealth of practical experience and profound reflection upon the themes of anthropology, mysticism, science, comparative religion, mythology, etc. Some of Samael's works include, psychology, meditation, natural medicine, occult science and an unveiling of the Great Mystery teachings of the East and the West. Together with his wife Litelantes, he founded the International Gnostic Movement in the 1950's, which now is a worldwide movement.

Writing in his Christmas Message of 1954, Samael Aun Weor speaks of his esoteric collaboration with his wife, Litelantes: "This Lady-Adept enjoys continuous consciousness and through innumerable incarnations has achieved the development and invigoration of certain occult faculties, which amongst other things, allow her to recall her past lives, and the history of the planet and its races. She has been the esoteric collaborator of the Venerable Master Samael Aun Weor discovering the 'states of Jinas' mentioned by Don Mario Rosa de Luna and Arnoldo Krumm-Heller. She collaborated in the scientific investigation of the vegetable elementals, which are referred to in the 'Treatise of Occult Medicine'. This powerful seer carries in her mind all the wisdom of the centuries, and with her clairvoyant faculties has collaborated with the Master Samael, studying the different elemental regions of nature."
