PINOCHO: An initiatory novel. Few are those who know that Pinocchio, the wooden doll out of the mind and creativity of the Italian writer Carlo Lorenzo Fillipo Giovanni Lorenzini; better known by his pseudonym Carlo Collodi, it is not a children's story. In fact, by its length it is a novel, but its alleged childhood plot is no more than the vehicle through which Collodi tried to deliver a deep spiritual, initiatory, esoteric and inner and personal development message. Indeed, the first thing that would have been pointed out is that the author, Carlo Collodi, was a member of the Masonic Order, an institution that guards and studies the ancient hermetic traditions attributed to Hermes Trimegistus, Gnosis, Qabbalah, Yoga, Pythagorean mathematics, etc. Collodi wrote "The Adventures of Pinocchio" that was published in 1882, under a convulsive atmosphere in the Italian reunification that was also directed by another Freemason José Garibaldi.

Geppetto's greatest wish is for Pinocchio to become a real boy. And he knows that his wish can only come true if Pinocchio learns and grows, so he sends him to school; This represents our development, which is a lifelong learning process.
