Understanding Gnosis: The Path to Personal Revelation

If “the Father” feels too far away, turn your attention upward to the Christ. The Christ was conceived by the ethereal realm to help us 2nd Order powers go home. Christ is our passbook. Christ is perfectly structured to save everything below. The New Testament says this—Protestants and Catholics just don’t believe it. Many modern Gnostics don’t believe it either. They think only a tiny remnant will make it.

I don’t think that’s true. If only a few return, the Fullness won’t be full. It will be partial. We are the fruit of the Fullness, and the Fullness won’t be full until we all return.

Flowers aren’t going to memorize books. Birds aren’t going to study theology. My dog doesn’t give a hoot about his astrological chart. Everyone is going back up. All 2nd Order powers will roll back up out of the material plane at the end of time.
We get there by realizing our gnosis and accepting the redemption of the Aeon sent to bring us home—Christ. Everyone is going home. You are going home.

It’s like we’re on a big school bus. Christ is waiting at the bus stop to take our hand and walk us home.

    How is it that we come from above? How is it that we return to above? And how do we interact with the above space, that is the pleroma of the Fullness of God, when we’re down here trapped in this material world?
    That was the query that actually kicked off most of my own personal gnosis, even before I read any of the Gnostic books. I used to wonder, as I played with my dogs down by the river and I stood barefoot in the mud of the river, how does the consciousness of God flow through me and the mud surrounding the river make up my body and how do they connect? That’s the beginning of the Simple Explanation.

    Sethian Gnosticism

    This week’s episode compares Sethian gnosticism to the Valentinian gnosticism we usually feature. We’ll learn some of the basic ways that these two strains of “gnosticism” differ. Who/what is the Barbelo? Who/what is Yaldabaoth? Who/what falls from the Fullness to create our material world? Who and how is a person redeemed to the Fullness?
