A collection of sacred or secret teachings, mysteries, or profound doctrines, especially in religious or mystical traditions.
From Greek 'archi-' (chief, principal) and 'doxa' (opinion, belief, glory). The term suggests essential or supreme teachings and mysteries.
The word archidoxis appears in mystical and alchemical texts—it represented the deepest, most guarded knowledge that only initiated members were allowed to know, making it the ancient world's version of classified information.
