Cosmic Engineering, as presented in this Treatise, is the study of cosmic processes and the laws governing these processes. However, it has the express intention of applying this study to the construction of a man who would be capable of responding to the true meaning of the objective pronouncement formulated on Earth many millennia ago. This was: "Man is a being created in the image of God." Everyday engineering presently in practice, is fundamentally concerned with the practical application of the study of physical, chemical, biological and economic processes, and the laws governing them, as they pertain to the analysis, design, and construction of artifacts and apparatus. The ultimate product of Cosmic Engineering, however, is man, analogically considered to be an image of God.

Will Mesa received his PhD in electrical engineering from the University of Florida. He was a professor and research engineer in Venezuela, France, and the United State. However, his major interest in life has been in the fields esoteric sciences and the hermetic tradition. He has spent 40 years studying and practicing the Living Teaching G. I. Gurdjieff brought to the Western World in the first half of the XX Century, and condensed in his magnum opus Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson.
