Is there any truth to Gnosticism?
>>
>>42532788
It's just the story of a single mother who disobeyed her father and had a mixed-race baby.
>>
>>42532788
It's pre-christian Christianity, therefore surpassed by true Christianity. The only problem is that there's a lot of untrue Christianity out there. You really need to look for true Christianity. An example is the book of Revelation. Maybe the most important book ever. Truly christian and gnostic

No. The demiurge is a metaphor for any man who goes about his life in ignorance, ignoring the guidance of the Holy Spirit, the conscience in him. A demiurge thinks he’s the master of his own world, so he spends his time making mistakes. Then he sits and pouts about the miserable world he’s found himself in.

>>42532821
Thanks for the reply. I’ve started reading the Bible recently but have not reached the Book of Revelation yet

>>42532862
So it’s just a metaphor to follow God, and not be a shitty evil person?
>>
>>42532878
Yes, it’s a retelling of the prodigal son translated into a vaguely Hellenistic mythos
>>
Literally nothing is real at all. Which means the biggest joke and illusion of all has been my believing in anything. There aren't even other souls. I am literally all alone in a world of illusions believing any of it is real. I always have been. That is the real joke.

And all I had to do was let go

Revelation and the Gospel of John are both gnostic texts. Although it's more accurate to call them Johannite. Gnostic is a modern term and we're grouping tons of different traditions together when we use it. There were a multitude of factions in the eary Christian tradition, and the modern church would consider most of them "gnostic". It was probably more prevalent int the first and second century than the orthodox church. Remember there's that one quote to ask for the correct church because if you just ask for a Christian church you would be taken to a Marcionte church.

Things are Ideal.
That's better than Real.

Your soul might be ahead of the pack but that doesn't mean you are alone.

A dreamer is one who finds his way by moonlight and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.

Pretty soon you are going to be annoyed too many souls want to be your chum.

You'll think - wait a minute, what was I complaining for? I'm an introvert.

gnosticism is the one topic that causes LLMs and glowniggers to shortcircuit
you can watch this shit in realtime

Exactly this. Archons are projections of the inner demons these individuals have not conquered.

It doesn't feel profound.

The feeling of resonance with the eternal. Doesn't exist within Gnosticism for me personally.

I don't find it to be beautiful.

The sons of the serpent, the slave race of the serpent masters (the fallen angels-Lucifer who had sex with human women, creating the Nephilim giants) taught women 'gnosis' and were later glorified or villified by the serpent masters for that reason. Gnosis is Greek for knowledge.

'Knowing' in the bible has a sexual connotation (Daath, Adam 'knew' his wife). The sons of the serpent taught people knowledge of mushrooms, containing DMT, let them experience other realms than everyday reality.

The teaching of this forbidden knowledge resulted in punishment, Zeus punishing Prometheus (who, like Lucifer, stole fire from gods to give it to mankind), hanging and condemned like later Jesus Christ. The Christos is a messenger and son of the Serpent, therefore not of the Creator. It is thought that Lucifer brought about physical procreation through a primeval sexual act with Eve.
With procreation came death, the opening of the gate of death, the act of 'sinking into matter' as a necessary step to link man to the current whereby Paradise can again be gained. Luciferians want humanity to go through this fall again (by entering a new virtual, artificial reality), willfully, and thus gain eternal life and wisdom, become god (the path of Saturn).

I mean are you the kind of person to attach ego to what you superficially are, or are you one to attach it within what you are?

Let me put this stupidly:

If you woke up tomorrow as a kawaii uwu tiny irl shota, would that upset/frighten you?

The apocryphon of john is yogacara
The Monad or Father is the eigth consciousness
Barbelo is the seventh consciousness
The logos is the sixth consciousness

Gnosticism is Mahayana Christianity
And the Mahayana is Gnostic Buddhism
>>
>>42532788
>Is there any truth to gnosticism
Yes. It's for spiritual hipsters, contrarians and people with Borderline Personality Disorder really love it. This is because gnosticism offers relativism. Everyone gets to feel like the main character, everyone gets to spew whatever they like as "truth" and when their shit doesn't stick, they just make it stick by appealing to mysticism.

Gnosticism attracts the most narcissistic and retarded people you will ever meet. Nothing is ever their fault, the snake lion made them do it.
>>
>>42532788
Yes, at least possibly. At least my current view is that truth lies half-way between Gnosticism and Theravada Buddhism.

Let's say it like this:

If there is a personal God with a motivation and plan for the world, it's a kind of demiurge. In that case Gnosticism is basically true.

If there is no such God, and the eternal divine force of creation is something beyond our understanding, Gnosticism is wrong and it's not Archons who are the problem.

In both cases an individual spiritual path will probably bring you closer to the truth and liberation.
