The Secret Book Of John, Part 2

The Alchemical Mind

As we continue our deep dive into Gnosticism, I take a look at The Secret Book Of John. This is part two of a multipart series on this important Sethian text, as we look at the intricate Gnostic cosmology. On this episode, we'll go into how the universe was created according to the Sethians, what the nature of god is, how physical reality came to be, why there is an "evil" god in their cosmology, and how humanity can return to the Pleroma (or the fullness) of the one true god through the cultivation of our innate inner spark. This is a fantastic piece of the Gnostic puzzle, but be sure to listen to part 1 before diving in.
