Dear Heather, You read my mail very well and you picked up on that I was only attracted to a certain but fundamental aspects of Gostiscism. It is the aspect of Gnosis - having knowledge of what I suspect the spiritual process and the transcendence. There are lost of aspects in the Gnostic literature that are fossil of long forgotten dark ages. However I perceive the Christian Gnostics as a community, with no hierachy and with mutual support on the spiritual path. Furthermore I do enjoy reading some of the Gnostic Gospels as I discover in them pearls of wisdom, which have been excised at the Council of Nicea. Heather, I have written a 45 page account of my spiritual journey and development. Are you or others interested in reading it? If so it would give you a much better inside as to how I got where I am. I could zip it for you or send you a copy by snailmail. Lots of Love, Gerald. |
