Pythagoras was the first of the great teachers of ancient Greece. Born in 570 BC, he became one of the best known philosophers and mathematicians in history.

In creating the Pythagorean Brotherhood, his teachings influenced many, including Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. The initiates in the Pythagorean School followed rules of loyalty and silence. The school practiced purification rituals through the study of Geometry, Arithmetic, Music and Astronomy.

Pythagoras's teachings revolved around the idea that, when one considers the deepest level, numbers constitute the essence of all things.
The Pythagoreans believed that the world was governed by the same mathematical structures that govern numbers, since they symbolized harmony.

This harmony or order was perceived by analyzing the stars and nature. For them, the Cosmos is organized through a mathematical order and proof of this are the perfect movements of the stars, the changes of seasons and the alternation between day and night. Just like day and night, there are many opposites in the world, what reconciles the opposition between them is the principle of harmony, and the principle of harmony is governed by numbers.

When asked why he lived as a "philosopher" rather than an expert in any of the classical arts, Pythagoras replied: "Some are influenced by the love of wealth while others are blindly led on by the mad fever for power and domination, but the finest type of man gives himself up to discovering the meaning and purpose of life itself. He seeks to uncover the secrets of nature. This is the man I call a philosopher for although no man is completely wise in all respects, he can love wisdom as the key to nature's secrets."
