Secret Quest I (3/3) : The Path of the Christian Gnostics
Posted in Uncategorized by admin | February 28th, 2010
www.gnosticawakenings.com As the inquisition raged to eradicate groups deemed heretical, the Gnostics went underground and encoded their mysteries in symbols and allegories, such as the mysteries of alchemical transformation. In this last installment of “Secret Quest,” find out how the wisdom of the Christian Gnostics has kept reappearing – right up to the modern day… “Secret Quest I” is the first episode in a 3-part series on Christian Gnosticism which has been split into three parts to go on youtube. To purchase the whole series on DVD, go to Absolute Publishing Press www.absolutepublishingpress.com

How are they even people after everyone they have killed? The call everyone else ‘heretic’ but they should look in the mirror. You are thinking of the Hebrew god from the Torah. At least the Gnostics I read somewhere believe that Jesus wasn’t son of Hebrew god. But the wrong people abducted Jesus’s message killed millions. Well the mess of Judao Christianity makes a bit more sense now.

Very interesting. I have read a few of Gnostic texts like Peter, Judas and Mary. Im looking at The gospel of Thomas at the moment, seems to be alot of sayings that Jesus spoke. The gospel of Judas was hard to read as it has quite alot missing. The Gospel of Mary has the first 6 pages missing and then 2 more near the end.

@ sharetrue: Gnoticism teaches us to find the truth through the words of Christ, which Christ encourages us to know ourselves, which is natural for us to do because only we know our own individual experience and the truth (divine) that lies within; however complicated it is. Nonetheless, we have a guide through the full message of Christ and knowledge that is here for us to find if we seek. Ask and you shall receive.

How come this Samuel Aun Weor is not mentioned in wikipedia’s article about modern gnosticism, among some other sources?
Was he really as important for the movement as this video claims?
February 28th, 2010 at 8:55 pm
Looking at the name spelling is very important. Bel-ze-buub which she mentioned in the video is different from the name spelling of the demon spirit Be-el-za-bub or bel-za-bub or be-al-za-boah whom i think you are refering to, there is no correlation between the two names whatsoever. You can check it for yourself. I hope this helps.

Very interesting and well put. I’m not sure I’m ready to buy into it but it was a very good production and I will investigate further. Well Done!

Did she just say BELZEBUB ???
EXPLAIN

Wow so if thine people don’t believe exactly the way we do– the holy ones, the rulers, the politicians… burn them. How things change but stay the same….

The Gnosticawakenings website is a good place to begin learning more about Gnosis.

find a Gnostic association near you. And read books from VM Samael or Helena Petronila blavatsky. If you are only interested in concepts, then you will never know what it is about. They will tell you what others have done, and teach you how to find yourself so you can experience Gnosis( knowledge).

interesting , thanks for the new study idea:)

very simple way of explanation’s its true there are different types of peopl
ppl who are so radical about their belief that they never want to come out of the box & not even consider a slight possibility that anything beyond their belief exist
ppl who are curious about it but they are afraid to try it becoz of the fear of punishment
ppl who will go to the end of the world to find the truth
Gnostics are belong to last part….
amazing that we have the freedom now to say what we feel

As Quran states in Chapter 112: (In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful), (Say:He is Allah, the One and Only), (Allah, the Eternal, Absolute), (He begetth not, nor is He begotten), (And there is none like unto Him)….Furthermore Allah says in Quran: Verily in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest! (Chapter 13 verse 28)

That sounds kind of complicated..a more simple and effective route to self purification and ascension is , to repent of your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior .
Once you do that , you can start experiencing the presence of God , through His Holy Spirit .
Problem is , many Gnostics pupu the idea that there is such a thing as “sin” , self-destructive , spiritually corrosive paterns of thought and behavior .
Hence , no genuine holiness or spiritual power .

an individual may believe they kill in war for religion, but groups don’t, all doctrine ending in war is political to increase wealth and power (the same thing)religion in such cases is just a tool to motivate the individual to his master’s bidding

That’s like saying non-astrology caused the Holocaust and the Napoleonic Wars, because Hitler and Napoleon were non-astrologers.
The communists killed in the name of communism, not atheism. The fact that they were atheists was beside the point.
Whereas religious people kill SPECIFICALLY in the name of god.
And religion is the ‘weapon’, not the people. Just open the Bible and read the endless passages of stoning, slavery, genocide, human sacrifice, rape and eternal hell fire.

your webape is gone, any other link

Communism killed millions, Laddre, so does that make Atheism a joke too?
Religion is not the joke – it’s the people who turn it into a weapon who are.

Hi Sharetrue, it explains on the channel page that the rest of the Secret Quest series goes into the Gnostic teachings and practices:
“Secret Quest I: The Path of the Christian Gnostics” is the first episode in a 3-part series on Gnostic Christianity, and has been divided into three segments to go on YouTube. The rest of the series explores the Gnostic texts… and reveals the practices Gnostics use to acquire hidden knowledge.”

yes yes yes persecution is bad, so… next! what do you teach!!???? this video gives me the impression of a repetitive justification about alternative gospels,that OK well WHAT DO GNOSIS TEACH??’
February 28th, 2010 at 8:55 pm
This is so bad! But the negative can be positive too. I China the confucians tried to whipe out taoists with their writings without success. Like taoists some western mystics did receive immortality through alchemy. The body of resurrection is a spiritual body of antimatter.
Praised be Daughter Barbelo!

One will note from playing ‘quidditch’. There are many ‘beaters’ on the ‘field’ of the ether…but only one seeker attempting to catch the ‘golden snitch’.
There lies a subtext in much that is considered ’science fiction’ and ‘fantasy’…to evade the same old censors, from the same old invalidity.
