Free Workshop – Gnostic Christianity – Space Limited! August 30, 2008

Discover the truth of gnosis…

An eternal search for truth, which exists in the hearts of many Americans, has recently inspired a movement towards more practical spiritual approaches. This shift has sparked public interest in Gnosticism, which emphasizes the role of direct, personal experience. In Gnostic Christianity, the search for truth begins within – this path involves gaining self-knowledge and using spiritual practices to unite with the Divine.

Many, including Jesus Christ, have walked this spiritual path. It was known in ancient Greece, Egypt, India, among the Aztecs and Incas, and it is reflected in Zen Buddhism, Sufism, mystical Judaism, Freemasonry, and in many other sects. In the past, Gnosticism was taught in secret, due to violent opposition. The Gnostic teachings have survived through the ages and were passed down in many ways including symbolism, parables, artwork, and even in well-known stories like the Legend of King Arthur! While these teachings are more accessible in modern times, Gnosticism still remains a mystery and is often misunderstood. In this 2 hour workshop, we take an in-depth look at Gnostic Christianity, unraveling the mystery and examining its relevance in modern times.

Join us and discover:

-Gnostic Christianity through the ages.
-How Gnosticism survived in the face of opposition,
-Including the Holy Inquisition.
-The differences between Gnostic and traditional Christianity.
-The profound teachings of the Gnostic Gospels, such as the Nag Hammadi library.

-How the Gnostics view Jesus and the events of his life.
-How the Gnostics decipher the meaning of symbols and parables found in esoteric texts.
