The Gnostic Legacy
Determine how Gnosticism is relevant to your everyday life
Richard Smoley
Today there is much talk of the Gnostics, the ancient visionaries, long reviled as heretics, who may have possessed the keys to the deepest secrets of Christianity. Join Richard Smoley, author of Forbidden Faith, the first comprehensive popular history of Gnosticism, a secretive tradition that has survived for centuries in many forms and under many names. Trace the Gnostic legacy from its ancient roots in the Gospel of Thomas and the second-century Gnostics through the Cathars, into the modern era with Kabbalah, Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, Theosophy, and the works of Carl Jung. Explore the nature of gnosis through a guided meditation and determine how it is relevant to your everyday life. Face challenges using this spiritual context.
