This is a tool that is practical, direct, versatile and fast, truly appropriate for the Man of today that desires and searches for this kind of effective solutions for his development.

The process of human transformation includes three successive steps none of which can be taken before the previous one. In the root at the point of ignition it is desire, subsequently objective self-observation, self-knowledge and finally self-development which imply the transformation and the birth of the New Man. It is a process of inner unification. We see outside what we have within. If we are divided we will only see incoherent parts. To see the Totality with the eyes of Personality is impossible. We need to incorporate the fine energies of the Essence and reach a whole with it in order to complete the vision. The Enneagram shows the way to achieve it.

Although essence and intuition are not the same thing, I believe there is a parallelism with what Elaine de Beauport considers as a key to the total development of the human potential: the perfectly harmonious union in the Neocortex of the two maximum functions of the brain: thought and intuition. This would place Man in the privileged position of directing his emotional and basic brain such that the evolutive function of each person in the planet would be ensured. This would give Man the capacity to reach the Knowledge of God. A different language but the same objective.

As a psychological system of self-typification, the Enneagram has an intrinsic value that leads us to consider it as a model of wisdom because it demonstrates graphically Why each individual manages the potential of each Center in a specific manner, How the uses of those potentials are limited and optimized and Where, or which path to follow to access the capabilities of each centre and to become able to influence decisions and facts of everyday life. It encompasses all the elements to consider it a truly effective instrument of transformation.

Additionally, an adequate knowledge of this system allows making an accurate diagnosis of the degree of effectivity that a person is achieving in the use of his potentials and applies it to the study of the relationships among the types of personalities or multiple intelligence.

All was given to us and remains with us, in our intimacy, to be used.

A teaching like the Enneagram which, as it seems, has more than four thousand years of existence is given generously and without restrictions to us after having been during all that time within the reach of very few. I particularly like to look at it with the vision of the present times in the context of satisfying the needs of today’s man, the man in the threshold of the third millennium with a historic, spiritual, philosophic, political, scientific and technological heritage that places him in the situation, never before accomplished, to take a transcendental step in his evolutionary development. The Enneagram reaches a new dimension as a symbol of the union of scientific and intuitive knowledge. A model in which science and spirituality embrace each other. and a path to adapt the person to the expressions of the Spirit.

This was the longed for dream of visionary minds such as Pierre Teilhard de Chardin S.J. o Gurdjieff as it is still now for outstanding men in the different fields of science, philosophy or theology and,- why not?- many ordinary men who look forward the confluence in the Spirit of divided Mankind.
