Product Description
Product Description
The Codex Brucianus is a translation of an ancient Gnostic work from the sixth century and was brought to England from Upper Egypt and donated to the Bodleian Library in Oxford. Gnosis is the power of receiving and understanding direct revelation of God and the transformation of the whole man into a spiritual being by contact with Him. This book is a very beautiful Gnostic work and should be read by anyone interested in experiencing the divine Gnosis of God.

One of the few surviving original texts of the Gnostic sect of Christianity
6 April 2006
Format:Paperback
The Gnosis of the Light is one of the few surviving original texts of the Gnostic sect of Christianity, once persecuted to virtual extinction for heresy. Presenting Gnostic theologians' speculations concerning the nature of heaven, the meaning of life, and God, The Gnosis of Light treats complex precepts as living spiritual texts, scrutinized through Fletcher Lamplugh's interpretation and exposition, rather than as the tenets of a dead belief system. The Gnostic emphasis upon seeking the truth is preserved in this brief yet informative, enlightening, and deeply spiritual compendium.
