Christian
Tradition
Petia Prime was brought up by her mother and grandmother in the Christian orthodox Tradition. The spirit of this tradition has also influenced E21C. It aims at the restoration of human beings, created in the image and likeness of God, to their full potential through repentance, the change of mind and heart. Silence, fasting, prayer and the veneration of icons all form part of the life of E21C.

Krishnamurti
The philosophy of Jiddu Krishnamurti (1895 – 1986), who famously stated “truth is a pathless land”, had a profound influence on Petia. A hard-nosed medical scientist at the time, she was attracted by his anti-guru appeal in the 1970ies as she sought to understand the philosophical background of the yoga classes she attended during lunch breaks. Until the early 1980ies Petia regularly attended Krishnamurti’s lectures in Saanen, Switzerland. The qualities he tried to kindle in his listeners, such as penetrating self-observation and the boldness to reject false authority, play an important role in the practice of E21C.

Daskalos
In the 1980ies, Petia met Dr Stylianos Atteshlis (1912 – 1995), a charismatic Christian mystic and healer, on the island of Cyprus. Her encounters with Daskalos (Greek for teacher), as he is commonly known, and his inner circle of ‘researchers of truth’ are described in the book ‘Fire in the Heart’ by Prof K. Markides. Petia felt comfortable with his teachings as they were embedded in the Eastern Orthodox tradition while maintaining an open attitude towards other religious traditions. A deeply spiritual yet lively and humorous man, Daskalos described the ‘love of life’ as his greatest secret. The “Magus of Strovolos” introduced Petia to the Christian Tree of Life, the pattern of the heavenly man. He explained that the meaning of life is to illuminate it within us. Among many other things, Daskalos taught Petia about the central role of thought-forms ('elementals') in personal development and the work with the archangels. All three aspects - the Tree of Life, thought-forms and the archangels - are central to our work at E21C. Recognising in Petia a kindred spirit with a strong scientific orientation, he encouraged her to set up her own centre near Brussels.

Research
As a researcher with spiritual inclinations, Petia always sought the company of like-minded people. Over the years she has met some of the luminaries of our time, including Ilia Prigogine, David Bohm and Willis Harman, all of whom embody the search for truth from a position of deep faith, unhindered by the shackles of narrow-minded dogma and superstition. In the course of their research, they have come to remarkable realisations that broaden our understanding of the cosmos and often have useful practical applications. This spirit of open enquiry is fundamental to our work at E21C.
