The Most Obscure Teachings of the Gnostic Gospels

The Gnostic gospels of the 2nd to 4th century AD have told us a lot about the scene of evolving ideas during the early Christian period.
The Gnostics emerged as a group that saw the world very differently from the view of orthodox Christianity, and the sheer complexity of the doctrine has kept scholars and theologians engaged to this day.
From the point of view of someone reading these texts now, I'd describe them as a really fascinating sequel to the Bible, complete with its own host of deities, cosmology, alternative back stories to biblical incidents, unheard of cryptic teachings by Jesus, and mystical, heavily metaphorical theology.
And what about the purpose of these writings? Are they secret codes awaiting to be deciphered, or just a relic of a past doctrine that once flourished?
In this video we take a look at some of the quite obscure teachings from five different Gnostic gospels.
Enjoy!

Im 58 now, my bday was yesterday & and jst over 3 months ago.I had never been religious, never owned a bible, didn't have a clue how to pray? Then I was graced by the Holy Spirit after an NDE. I could feel my blood pumping thro every vein around my body like an electric charge & of I went into the vast blackness. I became all knowing I knew everything. I won't go into it, but I was graced seeing Jesus smiling lovingly at me with such compassion, we didn't talk & hes smile was like "I told you I was real" as I stood in awe!Then he graced me with he's essence.I felt everything he felt. It still makes me cry now, Im a mam of 3 with 1 grandchild. The pure compassion, empathy & love he has for us all & how wondrous we are to our Father was outta this world. Since then, Im a full on Christian & I will serve my Lord to my death. I still get messages & dreams that renews my Faith ten fold. He's real & and he's coming soon, so guys repent & seek him before its to late 🕊🕊🕊

The early Christian church sought to establish a unified theological doctrine to maintain cohesion and authority. To do this, they needed to define a canon of authoritative texts that reflected their beliefs and teachings. Gnostic Gospels, with their divergent views, were seen as a threat to the doctrinal unity the early church leaders sought to achieve.

[@lore.keeper]

Exactly, that's perhaps why they faced such fierce resistance and sometimes oppression from the mainstream branch of the faith

[@dorothybrandes5591]

Just read the opening in the Book of Thomas, basically saying that many who read these words will not understand them, and then in considering them, will be disturbed, and later true insight will come. I went exactly through those stages, and every time I read them, I get another insight!

[@lj5585]

Of course they were seen as a threat. They encourage one to set out on their own to find the God within and without. Such teachings would only take away the power that the Roman Catholic church was amassing.

The truth is, that people can get saved without knowing the truth. It's not about knowing the truth. It's about finding the mystery, the secrets. And these are to find even without people even know they found it or not. It's a thing that happens in heart, soul and mind. The pure heart. The lifestyle of the light. It's being a pure soul. No human knows if he/she is or not. Those belong to the light. Even without knowing the truth.

[@jkspro5931]

@@Gnosticjesus Yes agreed but those who are saved through shere bliss and innocence are the ones who are easily corrupted or lead astray resulting in fanaticism and extremism. The result of seeking the truth brought us the technology we use today and saved many lives of innocent "witches" from the stakes. Pure hearts and souls requires knowledge of the truth to distinguish right from wrong to keep it remaining "Pure." Finding the mystery is a step taken in result of actively seeking that truth.

My understanding is the Gnostics saw the material realm (matter and the world we perceive) as "evil" and to be overcome and transended. As a Buddhist, I see everything as part of whole, and simply different levels of perception. The Gnostics are still an interesting study, and did possess some deep wisdom and understanding.

[@lore.keeper]

Thanks for the comment :) some say that gnosticism has its roots in Buddhism and that it refers to the doctrine of reincarnation as the video says in the Coptic Apocalypse of Paul, do you think this is actually true? Would like to hear it from your perspective as a Buddhist.

[@ponglerman]

The Gnostics viewed the essence, the True Self, as a divine spark of creation, as an energetic aspect of pure universal consciousness. Due to the forced reincarnation in a world of suffering (brought on by Demiurgus, a corrupt offspring of Sophia), the Gnostics felt trapped in the illusion of Gaia. They sensed that this world is not "real" or at least less "real" than the higher realms. If you combine a perception of illusion and suffering with forced participation in such a world, you're bound to become mistrustful and frustrated

[@aubreyekstrom8919]

@@ponglerman Yes, I am familiar with that Gnostic view. My point was, as a Buddhist, I see it as a mistaken perspective. I agree with many other teachings of the Gnostics, but while Maya in Hinduism, and Samara in Buddhism, teach this is the world of illusion, they also teach that the illusion is still part of whole of reality, and that it is not "bad" or "evil" in and of itself. The real illusion, in the Eastern perspective, is our own perceptions of that reality being the ultimate reality when it is in fact only one small, temporary and constantly changing aspect of the whole of reality. It is still real though, and neither good nor bad, not alone evil, as sometimes portrayed in Gnosticism.

[@ponglerman]

@@aubreyekstrom8919 I think their idea of evil is different from how we might consider evil. Their view of evil was anything outside of pure freedom. Any reality that imprisons love (the force of infinity creative capacity, the ability to expand possibility without any restraint) is evil. This is why they considered Yaldabaoth to be evil. They saw it as a parasitic being that cannot create, only capable of imprisonment and subjugation. I believe this to be true. Interestingly though, I consider even the Godhead to be illusory, as it was born out of the cosmic egg of the void (sunyata, ayn/ayn soph/ayn soph aur, source, etc.)

[@AewonWolf]

Thanks to provide some clarity and more understanding Gnosticism is general term used to refer to multiple different sects that are similar but Gnostics themselves don’t subscribe to the same beliefs. However a key component about Gnosticism that’s common and not mentioned in this video is that the truth can only be revealed to you if you look within and are guided by Sophia/holy spirit. The same Devine spirit in all of us. This explains why some texts make complete sense to some and no sense to others and this is the hidden knowledge of Gnosis. However always understand Love is the filter, that will remove all that is man and leave what is God in any spiritual teaching. 🙏🏿

The oldest and still the best defined cycle is 20 days, and it does not correlate with planets or stars per say. The 36 decans is the second best and most defined cycle, and planets were assigned to it. The correlation led to a physical way to keep time, but the calendars came first. Astrology has a lot of ambiguity, and often does not work, where the 20 days, combined with the 13 numbers that make the 260 day calendar does. Jung and Freud are born on the same day and number in that system,, and it is simple. Belushi and Farley, both died at the same age, starred in the same show, and had a similar style. they both died specifically from an 8 ball, mixing the heroin and cocaine. They were both born on the same day in the 20 days, but their astrology charts have little in common. learning the 20 days, is the best way for any human to proceed. All cultures had these and ,..the bible also is written using these to a very high degree. Day 12 is the archetype of Jesus. genesis and Exodus (to chap 13) are the best sources and all else copies those. none is history.

Plato and others used the word Gnostic in a way that they expected the reader to already understand. It was a way of thought clearly taught by his predecessors, which they learned from their predecessors and so on. Lao Tzu was a court scribe, we don't know his real name, so let's call him Walter. Walt was digging around in the library vault, dusting probably, and came upon a certain scroll that demanded he read it. This scroll, he claimed, discussed a philosophy called The Way. It was an early Shang Dynasty text, likely itself taken from ancient Vedic texts which used Astro theology to date their own creation back to 10,000 to 7000 BCE. This was the time of the first Buddha named Dipamkara, who was likely the young Zeus, who also called himself Zen by the way. In the cardinal and ordinal sense, Zeus means Two, Second. He was said to be two men: a reincarnation from the future, and a preincarnation from the past. When his future world was destroyed in nuclear fire, the soul of the reincarnation used a secret dimension he had discovered to navigate to the past and pop out of the head of his preincarnation. Let's call them Manu and Anu. Anu, aka Loki, Uranus, Ouranos, was thus warned of his impending death from the same 70 Titans who had murdered his father King Anshar, and his father King Apsu. The pair of them flipped the tables on the 70 Titans, caught them red handed, and in Genesis 10 we read how the 70 Goyim or Giants had their spirits shattered and scattered just enough to create 70 nations. Two additional nations were created for the 12 Olympians (Israel) to serve as High Priests spreading 12 great religions, and the 12 princes of Saturn's choosing (Rome) to serve as the High Kings spreading Tatarian Feudalism that almost always displayed itself with an Amphictyony of 12 Tribes uniting to bring order to the steppes. So our world is a recreation of an earlier Earth. Our humanity is a recreation of an earlier humanity built from the scattered spirits of murdered Universal Kings and their families. If you are reading this, you are one of the souls of the rebel spirits. A spirit is just a collection of individual souls which always come together for a purpose. You are a member of one of the Nations of the 70 Titans, or the 2 Nations created to shepherd the others. Perhaps you are of mixed blood, with many nationalities in your lineage. You are just a Child of Man and a plan is in place for all of you as well. I guarantee you that the original spiritual template was just Manu as the Demiurge himself, united with his preincarnation Anu, and imagining the entire future of humanity so this lost timeline could be recreated. Only, instead of you sitting in your heavens above and consigning the souls of the Universal Kings to perpetual torment, now the situation has been reversed. That spiritual template was only created because there was a previous Earth, with a previous humanity, and it wasn't a pleasant place! It was NOT pleasant! This world is a place of karmic dispensation because you are a murderer. But in your defense, Manu arose as your attorney. Your Advocate. Your Wonderful Counselor. Such a thing had never occurred before, but he created the Triune system of Judge, Prosecutor, Defender: altogether the Tribunal. He was only allowed to try and save your lives by wasting his own. Not just once when he was Jesus, but he was tortured and crucified once for each of the 70 Titans. I assume all of the prices have been paid by now? That each of you belongs to Manu because he - the Demiurge and half of the persona and reputation of Zeus, bought you with his blood? Let's remember that the Demiurge was an old Egyptian system. He was seen fondly by the Gnostics of Plato's era. It was only in Asia Minor that the antithesis arose, just around the time of Jesus, who warned his disciples that an Anti-Christ would begin appearing which looked just like him, but was teaching a false dogma. Right on time, the Anti-Gnostics arose with their Anti-Demiurge message. If Alexandria said it was good, Antioch said it was bad. In Revelations, Jesus, calling himself The Amen (Manu as part of Zeus), fixed the Throne of Satan in Pergamon and John-Mark warns that a group of former or quasi-Christians were subverting the entire message of Jesus. Knowing this, we can still learn from all Anti-Gnostic scriptures, which often tell the truth in an obverse way we simply need to flip back on its head. All of the Gnostics on both sides of the issue agree that this world is a prison which we can only leave via exhibiting behavioral modification through our good works, or by becoming enlightened. In the Gospel of Thomas, Jesus said that the system of Exile was changed so that, even if you are still a jerk, if you are return to the Heavens as an enlightened soul, the Father would never again exile you for a punishment. In fact, Jesus said the only person who could exile anybody at all was the Holy Ghost aka Manu. So ... the Demiurge has the sole authority to put the whammy on you. You hate him in the same way you might hate the authority of the police. But if you follow the basic rules, you should be fine, so what really is the problem? What are you still rebelling against if not your own ignorance of such matters?

🇬🇧 I remember reading a couple of books quite a few years ago with many references to Gnosism But werent per se about it. One book was by a Reverend Bouquet ( written in the 1920s or 30s) & addressed many strange & odd tales, this book was simply titled Comparative Religions Another book that i forget the title of but was written by Mircea Eliade & again i picked up on similarities between both books. Therefor i cant say for definate which story this came from But it depicts the Goddess ( Noria or Norea ?Im not sure) who is envious of the creators manifestation of material things She decides to have a baby from her own creation By this i took it to mean she didnt create a child with male sperm but as the words stated She conceived of herself?? And hid herself away from the creator as she hadnt asked him for permission to self create Anyway she bore a male child who was hideous in appearance but to her he was beautiful & she loved him & therefor wove round him a Glamour or spell so that he appeared beautiful to all who saw him Tall, muscular, blonde & blue eyed & very handsome but it was only his mother ( & the creator ) who saw his real image She called him Samael I cant remember what transpired next but think Noria the Goddess was banished with her son for her transgressions Next thing, Samael is a bit of a rotten egg! His activities match his real hidden face of abomination! He decides to become a god or akin to God, he creates his own adoring minions or human kind but he cannot make them animate, these beings lie flat & crawl about on their bellies floppy & useless. He rushes to his mother bewailing his situation & because she can refuse Samael nothing she agrees to help him However she is very angry with him for creating these Beings against the wishes of the creator God. But since she disobeyed the God when self creating her son she has to help him. She tells him shes angry & is only helping him because she feels pity for the Beings hes created She takes the humans & breathes into them her divine breath. ( its interesting to note that the proper meaning in the Adam & Eve creation story where Eve was created from Adams rib the word Tau was used, but the origional spoken hebrew word Tau meant divine breath, not rib) The Beings became animated from the Goddess's divine breath & stood upright & walked about & talked to each other. I dont remember what transpired after this but think, the Goddess had been tolerated by the creator god & she kept to herself & did her own thing. But Samael made his creations the humans, devote themselves to worshipping him, he loved the adoration & was boastful & vain & cruel too. All of this put me in mind of Yarweh & his attitudes & vanity & cruel acts Im not sure if it was my own thinking or if either of the 2 authors ive mentioned above also put this notion into my mind. Its a pretty " out there" story but its nothing ive made up Ive never forgotten the story as it was so outrageous & although i read about this a few decades ago & dont have either of those books ive quoted, in my library anymore. Im sure they can both be looked up & the story verified somewhere! Id personally love to read them again as there was so much info id never heard about before, like this story.

I think the question we should be asking ourselves at this point in time is this, “ why are we not taking it literal?”

[@lore.keeper]

I actually do believe some of the stuff written in these texts and similar archaic ones was meant by the authors to be taken literally, despite the biased rationalizations of those who believe in them that they intend 'absolute truth' and should be 'interpreted' in a way as to reveal said truths. Such texts reflect the authors' actual scientific and moral limitations back then. But when we look at other parts of these writings, it's more logical to assume that they were written in some sort of coded language. Why? No idea.

That Gospel of Thomas quote "for every female who makes herself male will enter the kingdom of heaven" reminds me of a passage in the Lotus Sutra in which a female child only eight years old and the daughter of a dragon, makes herself a male in order to achieve enlightenment. Apparently it is meant to make the statement that enlightenment is possible, not just for human adult males, but for females, children, and non-human beings to attain.

[@deewesthill1213]

"The flaw in the subordinate" concept reminds me of the beginning of The Silmarillion, a novel by Tolkien that predates The Lord of the Rings. At the beginning of everything, a choir of celestial beings is singing, but then one begins to sing out of key, and earthly evil then ensues, or something like that.

[@lore.keeper]

Wow what an interesting narrative for the beginning of evil haha 😆 And as for the verse from the gospel of Thomas, I actually tried to look for some sort of hidden interpretation behind the apparent misogyny and found something similar to this. It might have been revolutionary for its time to allow females to attain enlightenment, but to us now it's still definitely misogynistic, I don't know. That's the most puzzling thing about this doctrine, tons of metaphors that can have a wide range of different interpretations.

[@deewesthill1213]

@@lore.keeper Thank you for your reply! The passage certainly does sound misogynous to modern readers. A woman must turn male to be equal to men?! 🙄 Although up until recent times, even in modern western societies, male political and religious authority over women was still predominant, and women's role in society was still seen as mostly restricted to home and family. Therefore many centuries ago, to merely question the social order was seen as very radical, even in early Christian churches in which, alongside the men, many women disciples were evangelizing, teaching, and prophesying, as reflected in the authentic epistles of Paul. In the canonical gospels, Jesus says nothing about challenging patriarchal authority, so his silence implied he consented to it, just as he never questioned slavery. So maybe the Gospel of Thomas was intended by gnostics to at least begin changing that attitude. Apparently since the Roman Church hierarchy deeply feared the effects of women teaching men, they felt a need to forge the "pastoral epistles" and add them to the canon to make it look like Paul had shared their viewpoint and wanted women in churches forbidden from even speaking or asking questions.

[@lore.keeper]

I agree that I can't think of an instance where Jesus directly challenged the patriarchal society back then and I too totally abhor many of Paul's teachings regarding the silence of women, the covering of their hair, them being unfit for pastoral roles etc..., but on the other side some people argue that Jesus still showed uncommon treatment towards women that is definitely regarded as favorable. For instance, Mary Magdalene was a major figure in his inner circle at a time where a woman was not supposed to be seen in public company of 13 men, he also forgave and defended the woman accused of prostitution from being stoned to death, and the fact that the very first witnesses of the alleged "resurrection" were women is also an uncommon gesture towards a better depiction of women, being the first witnesses to the most significant event in Christianity, in a society that viewed them as inferior and whose testimony held no weight. Were the gnostic teachings another step further in promoting a better depiction of women? Perhaps. That would be great and quite revolutionary just like you said. But the point is, are we sure that this is the correct interpretation of verse 114? I personally hope it is :D

[@kbone8137]

I often noticed that the concept of 'female' in ancient texts is used to denote that which is creative/created/inspired; whereas, 'male' often denoted that source from which all that is created springs eternally. It is not about gender per se, but a way of expressing fundamental duality within what is WHOLE in ways that are mirrored in the physical world. All women and men are of the same source, sister and brother,...EVERYTHING springs out of and within NOTHING kinda thing...

[@ponglerman]

Verse 114 in the Gospel of Thomas is not referring to the physical female form but the union of opposites. Yeshua means that Mary is missing the Sacred Male aspect of her Self, one of courage and wisdom. She has the divine care and intuition of the Sacred Mother, however she exists out of balance with the phallic archetype

90% of the gospel of Thomas is about the fact that Christ is within you. Verse 114 is talking in metaphors, male being the spiritual matter (aka semen) that is the basis of creation and female being the manifested “birthed” reality. Only females can give birth. To make female male isn’t about sexism, it’s saying to return the the corrupted/manifested reality to its true form or source, being the spiritual substance of the creator.

"Split a rock, I am there. Crack open a piece of wood, you will find me.' This could be taken to be an allusion the the act that the kingdom Jesus speaks of is not accessed through any fancy buildings full of relics with various officers standing between oneself and the Monad. "The Kingdom of Heaven is inside you and all around you; not in buildings of wood and stone." I've been taught an interpretation of Jesus' statement that he can manifest the masculine in the female so that she might enter the kingdom of Heaven, too, but that explanation as it is from a Gnostic perspective is available online all over the place and I'd probably muck it up trying to explain it. It isn't what most might think, though. Not at all. Oh, right, then there's the Mary and Jesus sitting in a tree bit. The strongest historical evidence to support a potentially consecrated marriage between those two would be Mark 16:9-11 where Jesus reveals himself to her first after the big nasty and then John 20 when she finds the empty tomb. Historically, it would have been the wife's responsibility to attend to her buried husband, as far as I've been able to extrapolate from reading I've done on the subject. And to call something antisemitic ought to be interpreted properly. "Semitic" refers to a linguistic grouping including and Arabic Hebrew, not a race, culture of religions. The world would be a much better place if we were to stop abusing that word.

The "flaw" in matter is personal, not impersonal or cosmic. Each of us creates our own experience of reality. Please note I didn't say each of us creates our own reality, I said each of us creates our own experience of reality. The difference is crucial to understand because each of us has elements in our experience of reality that we don’t want, and those things are there because of a fatal flaw in our human psychological make-up. That flaw primarily takes two forms: 1. The belief that there’s no divinity and we’re alone in this world. 2. The belief that there is a divinity, but we’re disconnected from it. We each have a responsibility to ourselves and to the entire human race to become fully conscious of divinity and our oneness with it. We must remove the flaw, individually and collectively.

Love this comment. In my opinion this is the Achilles heel of the idea of religion as a whole. The existence of thousands of religions, all conflicted, all borrowing from each other, is actually the perfect sign that no god exists.

[@bohlseye5700]

⁠@@lore.keeperI would argue that it’s the perfect example of how God does exist. The reason most religions share insight, philosophy, stories, events, etc. all encapsulated in different ways is because we as humans all perceive things differently. It doesn’t mean it’s not the same thing. The creator doesn’t care what you call it or how you conceptualize it. It exists far beyond our understanding yet ties all of us together. It is the observer that allows our universe to exist, or perhaps is our universe. It is the consciousness present within every fiber of the atom, every piece of matter in the universe perceivable and more importantly imperceivable. All of the religions are wrong and yet in a way they’re all right. All talking about the same thing that no one can quite get, because how could we. It’s not the point.

[@fireteamomega2343]

The idea is that nothing given all circumstances and environments can be perfect all the time. And so the idea of God really shouldn't be perfection but instead evolving and ever expanding through experiences. And what better way to do so then through our additions our experiences in different creations. Now multiply that by a magnitude of universes... most in which you are aware that you can freely leave.

[@alexgeorgescu2122]

​​@@skelicles The ancients understanding of evil was different back then from now. They saw matter as evil because matter is coruptable, subject to the laws of change and transformation. This body won't stay like this forever, it will grow old and die, the matter will decay, so will every atom in this existence, hence the refference to the "flawed creation". So when gnostics say that matter is evil they refer to that whitch is subject to change and decay as opossed to the perfect, permanent and unchanging reality of the spirit. That life is suffering is true, but knowledge brings understanding whitch can deliver us from suffering, so life can be redeem, thats salvation. The abstaining from procreation has to do with a special practice that conserves the seed (the sperm) and transmutes it so it gains other functions in the human body.

Many folks seeking truth *fail to find* 'cos they're easily led astray by worldly logic, high sensuality, vain imagination or specious mysticisms. I know I was. I'm an ex neo-vedantic (hindu roots) new ager. I used to be into so much "spiritual" stuff: trance channelings, ancient wisdom, *gnosticism,* hindu gurus and buddhist mystics. I was illuminated by the *kundalini (serpent) spirit* then 7 years ago I got properly enlightened by the *Holy Spirit* which showed me what a fool I was before. Spirit led me to the real *Jesus Christ* and everything changed - paradigm shifted. This is being *BORN AGAIN* and it's an ongoing surprise to me 😁 It escapes the notice of our self-absorbed, glamour-saturated world that we're in a spiritual war for souls. The immensity of ignorance is astonishing: the dark powers bedazzling the minds of the masses (Ephesians 6:12). We've inherited ancient spiritual subversion: the earth is fallen. The holistic fields of nature are fallen state. Life kills and feeds upon itself. Mankind is a spiritually fallen race highly prone to deceit and delusion. Frankly, we need a *Saviour* and by Jesus Christ we have a *Glorious One* As a new ager I couldn't believe it but in the *Light of Spirit* Jesus really is the *Way, the truth and the Life* just like He said: no one comes to God except through Jesus, there's no other way (Matthew 7:13-14). As a neo-vedantist I wasn't convinced (I was damn sure I knew better) but turns out the Bible is Spirit breathed, written by men inspired by the *Holy Spirit.* Jesus is vividly portrayed and endorsed in the new testament, in fact he's apparent in the old testament too (Luke 24:27 & 44) and by the *Light of Spirit* we're allowed to *see* that and *know Him.* Any previously perceived discrepancies or contradictions are ironed out and the supernatural narrative flows most beautifully. The Bible is the Revelation of Jesus Christ.

Thanks Darren for taking the time to share your personal experience! While I won't argue with any supernatural claims, the only part I can strongly disagree with here is the persistent view that humans are inherently corrupt and always dependent on an external force, without which they are doomed to fail or 'stay lost'. This to me is quite unfair and counterproductive and in the long term, even *lethal* . I believe we as a species are intelligent enough and capable of awesome things, both moral and scientific. We *DO have our problems* , but we are slowly evolving to better solve them, especially when it comes to morals. I personally think we don't need any outside force to make us good and 'uncorrupt'. Instead of seeing ourselves as weak and fallen, if we believe that we have it in us, and that we are the only ones who can collectively shape our future in a positive way, then we can achieve amazing things.

Something they could have easily understood as the trinity idea was ubiquitous in Egypt...Not to mention that David was Tuthmosis the 111 and Solomon was Amenhotep. Read Mustafa Gadalla on that point and google a picture of the Egyptian temple as the so called Hebrew temple is an exact replica. Enough of the spiritual BS as true GNOSIS is the fact that the O.T. and N.T. are incompatible! Even Marcion understood this...

[@barnowl.]

You do not understand what the New Age is and truly means. It is NOT the hodge-podge of what you described. The imminent New Age/Era is that which Christ will usher in at His promised Second Coming. It will be a time of elucidation that goes far beyond what the New Testament offers/ed. Also, the NT has been misinterpreted, misunderstood , misused and parts of it deleted. I have 'been there, done that ' where you are now. At the age of 12 through to my late 20s I was a member of a church, when and where I repented , was baptised and (supposedly) received the Holy Spirit. (not so!). I left that religion and its rigid, unenlightened mode of thinking and emotional centeredness as I was frustrated with the lack of wisdom there. In my search for better explanation, meaning and understanding of spirituality, I discovered the Ageless Wisdom Teachings which are a precurser to the new and ageless teachings that Christ will bring in with His Second Coming. The Laws and Principles of the New Age will be concerned with the individual and group development of the Soul (which/Who is/of and/ on, the higher, abstract mental plane). These Laws and Principles to live by, very briefly are : Right Human Relations, Goodwill, Group Endeavour, Unanimity, Spiritual Approach and Essential Divinity. The Holy Spirit is grossly misunderstood. It is the third energy which/Who is Active Creative Intelligence and Adaptability. Its purpose is Divine mental perceptions through which Divinity manifests. Its qualities are : the power to manifest, mental illumination, the power to produce synthesis on the physical plane, scientific investigation, balance. "His work is more closely linked to matter and He works in cooperation with the Lord of the second ray*. He is the motivating impulse in the initial work of creation ... through the medium of matter he provides humanity with a vast field of experiment and experience." Source - 'Esoteric Psychology,' p. 23, from the over 20 books by Alice Bailey, the amanuensis for the Ascended Spiritual Master, Djwhal Khul. *The second ray/radiation of energy is Love-Wisdom, which this ray, Christ and Buddha head. Christ with the Love aspect and Buddha with the Wisdom aspect. For an extraordinary, deeper and insightful explanation and understanding of the life of Jesus Christ, read, 'From Bethlehem To Calvary'-The Initiations of Jesus, by Alice Bailey. Also, as an introduction to the Ageless Wisdom Teachings, read, 'Ponder On This, a compilation of/on various topics from the Bailey books on spiritual and other topics. Check out more on The Lucis Trust channel on You Tube. PS. I too, have had the kundalini experience when I was in my early 20s. I was expressing loving forgiveness to someone who has wronged me when a fiery, cleansing, electric current ran up my spine, through my chakras and wonderfully exploded in and around my head at the crown chakra. I was on a spiritual 'high' for days. This was even well before I knew what it was! It was a ' baptism of fire' experience. Goodwill Blessings.

Namaste 🙏 Weaterners will be Westerners. Always tripping over logic and rational exoteric symbolisms and myths. The esoteric is completely lost on them. Even if Christ were to return, they'd likely cancel him, deny him, and the Catholic Church would label him as a demon of some sort. Ever since Constantine Europe and subsequently the collective West was detached from genuine soul connection. India however remained true to it's vedantic roots. Roots which the druidic and Gaelic cultures had far more in common with, including the Goddess Danu, and the same root etymology of their languages. Jesus was a realised being. He could work miracles and was spiritually ascended. Just as many others have been that the West conveniently also disregards. The greatest trick of Catholicism was that it talked people out of their soul connection and reserved it only for the priest class who knew the true practices. I have a deep love for Jesus and his path. But when it comes to Christian mysticism and religion, it is so synchretised with other beliefs that the messages are lost entirely on all but the most encryptically astute. It takes the path of the heart and soul, and turns it into a cerebral puzzle. Hence the high emphasis on rationality and logic. No wonder the Romans loved concrete as they concretised the world and the magic of it in more ways than one.

[@claysherrod74]

I’m a therapist and spiritual director that uses Gnostic ideas in my therapy. What I get out of “making Mary male” is the breaking of gender stereotypes as women find their masculine side. In the message is also a conviction for men to find their feminine side. Humans are more spiritually and psychologically sound when they find the balance between HARD and SOFT. As for the Demi-urge: I see this metaphorically as an intellectual deficient way of seeing the Creator as was described in the Old Testament. And with Sophia behind the creation, it seems as if there’s a practical lesson in understanding the fine line between intuition and distortion. In the end, the message is for each of us in our lives to know ourselves..and Love ourselves. We are balanced, happier, and able to live healthier lives when we do so. And if the world as a whole can do this, it would be an entirely different world indeed. That’s what I, personally, take from it.

[@lore.keeper]

This is a great take on the text but I ask myself, is that what the writers actually meant? With intensely esoteric texts like Gnosticism, basically a multitude of meanings could be possible.

After you read Nag Hammadi, go back to gospels, especially Gospel of John. It's basically the gnostic text within the New Testaments, as well as First Epistle of John. I personally believe that this sentence is a path: "If you stay in my teachings you are truly my disciples, you will know the truth and truth will set you free". Now, I don't know anyone who is reading and researching these gnostic gospels but I know myself. I am a sinner and far from perfect but I do live and try to live as much I as I can as Jesus taught. Forgive, help, do good, peace, tolerance and love. I am wondering if anyone else who is researching these writings is living and practicing the same as much as they could in this evil world? If you do those very well might be the teachings that Jesus mentions "if you stay in my teachings, you will know the truth" , and truth very well might be early Christians beliefs and theory. "If you love me, keep my commands. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever- the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you" Jesus also said "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life"...

Verse 77 about the wood and stone, it’s saying that the “son” being all things derived from the father creator have a portion of the creator within them. Thomas places an emphasis on the fact that this truth is hidden in plain sight in many of the the verses. So to say “split a piece of wood and I am there” is saying that within that substance of wood, is hidden a piece of the creator. Hidden under a rock, you see nothing, yet all around you are the works of God. It’s saying that all manifested reality contains a portion of the spiritual substance of the creator, in the myriad forms (called the sons or offspring) of God.

What if murdering children was referring to abortion?

[@lore.keeper]

Well that's an interesting proposition, perhaps this is the case, given the old misconceptions about abortion. I for one understood it in the sense that they literally kill their children after giving birth to them. Yet it could also be something else altogether, like a symbolism that's not meant to be taken literally. That's the confusing thing about gnostic texts, multiple possible interpretations but we don't know which one is supposed to be intended.

I came to that conclusion at first, but the preceeding sentence regarding sleeping around in my name, {paraphrased}, kind of threw that off as concerning this day and age.

Murdering children is referring to the common practice of infanticide. Today it’s still practiced if you birth a girl and wanted a boy in say India, where girls are despised until they can be a workhorse, but boys bring ‘honor’. Might make that ‘I can become a man and therefore holy’ passage a lot clearer. You pro-birth freaks are nutty. You worry so much about a fetus but do so little to care for living children.

Jesus fought with the Scribes and Pharisees, and called them white-washed walls, filled with dead men's bones, despite telling his disciples to love their enemies, as he obviously learnt to do, by his trial. And, if the Gospels didn't record this, then we would hardly believe that Jesus could utter such shocking phrases, considering how loving he was. Likewise, Jesus could have fought with Mary, and said such shocking things about her, because he obviously had a short fuse, early in his ministry. And, since Mary sabotaged his perfect dreams, by making him turn water into wine, in defiance of God's will, to cause John the Baptist to lose faith in him, why wouldn't Jesus try to excuse his mother, by blaming her shocking mistake on being a weak-minded woman, to justify defying his own moral code? Eventually, Jesus forgave everyone who sabotaged his perfect dreams. So, why would people promote these derogatory statements, instead of realizing that Jesus learned obedience, by the things which he suffered, like Hebrew 5:8 makes obvious?

And Mary asked the servants to do as Jesus tells them, so it was those in charge who did everything as you said. As for the Jesus bloodline theory (that Jesus was married and had children) it has been perpetuated mostly by fringe researchers, pop culture through movies and novels, and unsubstantiated research.

Jesus I expected more from Jesus. If Jesus was God incarnated, he would have had all the wisdom of the infinite universe so I would expect of Jesus to import some extraordinary wisdom upon mankind, but he did not. Jesus did not say anything that surpassed the wisdom/writing of earlier philosophers. Jesus did not leave any writing, was he illiterate? Could not get the resources to write? Did not care that his message would get corrupted until the time it gets written? Here are some things that he could have said that would give him more credibility: 1. Those people that you are accusing of being possessed by evils are just having what would be called an epileptic attack, it is a disorder of the brain; do not kill them, help them by… 2. Slavery is wrong in all forms, don’t allow it. Don’t follow the Mosaic Laws, they are wrong. 3. I won’t be coming back for thousands of years so to avoid wars and have prosperity between all nations until I come back, implement this type of government, these international treaties, and this type of constitution. 4. Many illnesses are cause by tiny organisms that would be called virus and batteries and these are things you can do to protect against it… 5. Burning wood is very bad for your health and the environment, here is a better way to create energy… The “miracles” that are attributed to Jesus can’t be verified; we would dismiss someone today that claim to have resuscitated a verified dead person without proof of it, why no dismiss a claim made thousands of years ago by a mysterious writer? To proclaim to have faith in Jesus is to proclaim that you trust 100th percent those writers that have given us those controversial/contradictory writings about Jesus.
