Gnosticism: New Light on the Ancient Tradition of Inner Knowing by S. Hoeller

Description: Book Details Title: Gnosticism: New Light on the Ancient Tradition of Inner Knowing Author: Stephan A. Hoeller Format: Paperback Pages: 257 Condition: Brand New DescriptionGnosticism developed alongside Judeo-Christianity over two thousand years ago, but with an important difference: It emphasizes, not faith, but direct perception of God—Gnosticism being derived from the Greek word gnosis, meaning "knowledge." Given the controversial premise that one can know God directly, the history of Gnosticism is an unfolding drama of passion, political intrigue, martyrdom, and mystery. Dr. Hoeller traces this fascinating story throughout time and shows how Gnosticism has inspired such great thinkers as Voltaire, Blake, Yeats, Hesse, Melville, and Jung. We learn about: The Gnostic view of the Divine and the manifest world. Good and Evil, and the essence of the human soul. The Gnostic Christ as the messenger of Light and the guide to sacred mysteries. Sophia, the Gnostic archetype of the Feminine Wisdom. The scriptures, sacraments, and rituals of Gnostic religions much as the Mandaean, holding secret wisdom traced back to John the Baptist; the Manichean, founded by the great third-century Persian prophet, Mani; and the Cathar, the glorious and persecuted movement in medieval southern France. Gnostic Literature and its influence on cultural giants such as Voltaire, Blake, Yeats, Hesse, Melville, and Jung. Gnostic West and East, which constitutes a Gnostic, and how Gnosticism can guide us into the twenty-first century.Free Shipping USA & No Customs SHIPS SAME BUSINESS DAY BEFORE 12PM EST ESTIMATED SHIPPING TIMES AND SERVICES USA: USPS Economy (2-9 business days) Canada: Economy (2-9 business days)Premium Packaging Our cardboard mailers assure that your order is packed to survive the sometimes perilous journey to your mailbox. 30-Day Returns Returns must be in exact same condition and packaging as sold.
