Register to receive the recording

Gain an understanding of the hidden mystical truths contained within the Gospel of John that speak of the great “leap” that’s offered at this stage of the spiritual path and how to receive it.

Cross the threshold of uncertainty and fear, even amidst strain and conflict, so you can access the love and serenity that is the true nature of the “Christos” that is open to all.

What if the Gospel of John wasn’t just a religious text, but an important mystical roadmap charting the path for your spiritual growth, enabling you to better navigate the most difficult moments of your life?

No matter the collective chaos or the inner struggles you face, there exists a deeper reality that can anchor you in serenity. This deep sense of serenity and oneness is at the heart of the mystical Gospel of John, shares Alexander John Shaia, founder of Quadratos: Four Paths, One Journey of Transformation and a former student of Joseph Campbell.

The Gospel of John is the third and critical stage of the 4-path journey for everyone. In this setting, each Gospel provides teachings to navigate their respective stages:

  • Path 1 - Facing your need to grow and transform
  • Path 2 - Navigating inner and outer obstacles
  • Path 3 - Making the leap to new vision and gifts
  • Path 4 - Actualizing the new vision and gifts through service

Join Alexander John for a groundbreaking journey into the mystical teachings of the “Christos,” a refreshing interpretation of the true nature of Christ as told through the Gospel of John, a text that holds deep truths about the “leap” we must make to experience the oneness of the cosmos, yet has often been misunderstood... with devastating consequences.

Drawing from his Middle Eastern Aramaic roots, his work as a Jungian psychologist, and his devotion to mystical Christianity, Alexander John will guide you through an exploration of this ancient text that transcends traditional understanding. Studying with Alexander John is a unique opportunity to learn from one of the most innovative thinkers in the field of spiritual transformation as seen through a Christian lens.

During the event, you’ll uncover a profound new perspective on the Christian Gospels — one that hasn’t been seen since it was abandoned in the seventh century over 1,400 years ago. Alexander John will explain the significance of using the Greek term Christos and how grave misinterpretations of John’s Gospel have led to some of the most horrific acts in history. More importantly, you’ll discover how these teachings can lead all of us toward deeper connection, peace, and harmony in today’s world.

He’ll also guide you through a Meditation with The Christos from the Gospel of John — that will ground you in a profound sense that “All is well,” anchoring you in peace and equanimity, even through life’s most difficult moments. As you practice this ancient meditation, you’ll discover how to transmute the pain and bitterness in the world around you into deeper compassion, unity, and peace.

In 2024, with conflict and division on the rise globally, these teachings on oneness are more relevant than ever. Alexander John will show you how to access this mystical experience of unity, while avoiding the pitfalls of inflated egos or unchecked spiritual energies that can lead to harm.

Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your spiritual practice and cultivate more peace in your life. Let the mystical Christos guide you toward greater love, balance, and beauty!

In this hour-long free online event, you’ll:

  • Learn that every transformational inner journey follows a 4-stage process —and how the gospels align with this framework
  • Appreciate how early Christianity chose the 4 gospel texts to guide the path of transformation, with each gospel representing a unique stage of personal growth and communal growth
  • Discover the “leap” that takes you to the mystical experience of oneness that is possible in the third path of transformation, rooted in John’s Gospel — and how it applies to your own spiritual journey
  • Understand the potential dangers and pitfalls of the third path’s mystical ecstasy, while gaining insight into how misinterpretation has led to both harm and the dimming of joy

“[Alexander John] skillfully weaves together many strands from interrelated disciplines...”
Alexander John Shaia has uncovered an archetypal pattern embedded in the four gospels which embraces all we know to date about human development and the psychological processes involved in spiritual transformation — what C.G. Jung called individuation. He skillfully weaves together many strands from interrelated disciplines, including history, tradition, liturgy, scriptural exegesis, and analytical psychology. His resulting synthesis, Quadratos, and the way it embraces the psychospiritual interface, will resonate with seekers young and old, longing to embrace the message of Jesus the Christ in a way which addresses the realities of living in the 21st century.

About Alexander John Shaia

EDIT

Born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama, Alexander John Shaia was part of a large extended family that had emigrated from Lebanon a generation previously. He grew up immersed in the ancient traditions of an Aramaic, Middle Eastern Christianity (Maronite Catholicism) and was expected to become a priest, a family tradition since the year 1300. He was led otherwise.

Alexander John received a degree in Cultural Anthropology from the University of Notre Dame where he was privileged to learn from Joseph Campbell. Next came a brief time in seminary followed by a master’s in Counseling Education, a master’s in Religious Education, a graduate certificate in Pastoral Psychotherapy, and a PhD in Clinical Psychology.

His extensive psychological and spiritual training across many modalities finally led him to Switzerland where he studied with Dora Maria Kalff, a Jungian analyst and founder of Sandplay Psychotherapy. He then became the first U.S. man admitted to the International Society for Sandplay Therapy — and continues to serve as a senior Certified Teaching Member of both the U.S. and International organizations.

Integrating a lifelong practice of prayer with many cross-disciplines — anthropology, psychology, spirituality, and ritual work, along with being a proud gay man — has shaped him into a unique thought leader, prolific author, and widely sought-after trainer, and speaker.

In 2001, he founded Quadratos — an educational organization to teach the ancient and universal four-path journey for radical transformation — and the four Christian gospels as an exemplar of the four paths.
