I see how that is true is more ways than one. "I Am" that creator who became the effect of his creation, and now I am only aware of myself as a body-mind-consciousness, yet "I" still witnesses it all. This is my personal subjective truth. [/quote] Gnostics believe or once believed that this material plane was just something to be endured and thatthey would attain a spiritual existence after death-much to be preferred. since flesh was just a suit to be soon discarded, they fell into one of 2 camps about how to treat this "trivial" flesh stuff. Could either be ascetic and completely deny flesh everything it asked for, or just completely indulge it and do sexually, for instance, whatever it whimsically demanded. Lots of evil done and misery caused by gnosticism. [/quote]

Each chapter has it's summary to the right which gives plenty of information and it's a very intriguing read for those that are into the Gnostic.
the chapters are from 1-22 and very worthwhile reading.
