Cyd sits down with a new friend who has just read The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated for the first time. She is obviously far along in her gnostic journey and her questions and observations are right on point. We sat at the kitchen table and shared gnosis for a couple of hours. Here is the second half hour of our conversation.
This is a wide-ranging conversation that touches on an amazing array of gnosis.
The Gnostic Gospel Illuminated is a very simple presentation of classic, Valentinian gnosis. Non-scholastic; illustrations by cyd.The hierarchy of the Pleroma is shaped like a pyramid. The higher, the fewer.The hierarchy of our bodies is patterned after the hierarchy of the Pleroma. This diagram is from A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything.Cyd’s Simple Explanation theory of everything is fully consistent with the gnostic gospel, written prior to the author’s reading of the Nag Hammadi codices. Whereas the Gnostic Gospel Illuminated is written in religious terminology, the Simple Explanation is written with secular language for those who reject religion and prefer to discuss consciousness, toruses, and fractals.Our material universe may be shaped like a torus. This is explained in A Simple Explanation of Absolutely Everything.Cyd’s rainbow slinky torus with a smaller slinky nested inside. This is the sculpture discussed during this episode.Cyd’s chalk drawings of toroidal dynamics are among the earliest torus images to be found on google. You may see all of the chalk drawings at the simple explanation blog. https://asimpleexplanation.blogspot.com/2010/02/drawings-of-toroidal-forces-universal.htmlThe Simple Golden Rule: Units of consciousness reach out to their neighbors to share information, assistance, and love, with their focus on the project in the middle, to build the next level up. This leveling up can only be accomplished with Golden Rule cooperation, building something together for the betterment of all.
The Simple Golden Rule is patterned after the cooperative spirit of the Aeons of the Pleroma. It is how everything in our universe builds better.
Lack of cooperation arises from selfish egoism and can only destroy but never build. Destruction is a material, entropic activity, whereas building for the betterment of all is a selfless, Aeonic activity based on love.
