Óscar Ichazo ( July 24, 1931) is the Bolivian founder of the Arica School (est. 1968). The Arica School is a Connection Framework based on the Connection Experiences and philosophical knowledge of Ichazo.

Notes

Allegedly "Arica" means "open door" in the Quechua language.[1]

Attempts to provide a development framework that provides a "rational system that produces inner development from beginning to end..." [2]

Attempts to provide a "map of consciousness," to describe "the psyche, analyze its origin, precisely identify each one of its points, and trace exact maps of consciousness."[3]

Uses the concept of the Eneagon to diagnose and treat ego afflictions.

"...true therapy consists in ridding ourselves of the illusion of individuality and dissolving our egocentrism in Cosmic Consciousness.[4]

Interestingly, early on tagged Carlos Castenda as a fraud.[5]
