Sinossi
Pur non appartenendo alla cosiddetta "Biblioteca di Nag-Hammadi", vastissimo e celebre corpus di manoscritti trovati nel 1946, la "Pistis Sophia" è uno dei testi fondamentali del pensiero gnostico. Anch'essa di area egizia, scritta nel III secolo, l'opera dispiega infatti un Sistema cosmogonico e cosmologico che ha pochi eguali per forza visionaria e complessità teologica. All'apice di questo universo vi è il dio "ineffabile, infinito, inaccessibile" dal quale emana ogni cosa. Sotto di lui si aprono le tre regioni intermedie: quella del "tesoro della luce", quella "di destra" e quella "di mezzo". Ancor più in basso "il mondo degli eoni", il nostro mondo dove si consuma lo scontro tra la materia e la luce.

Peter hates women lol. Very eye opening book, and teachings similar to escaping Buddhist samsara cycle.
Interesting read...I think that it was inspired, but not by God, and I don't believe it was written by Mary. Sounds like the viewpoint of Lucifer the angel who was cast out of heaven and resentful and whiny about it.
What is written in this book is very confronting when compared to main stream Christianity. How ever in this book Jesus expounds on some parables found in the common bible revealing it's real meaning and not the meaning pastors tell you. A lot of this is questions from Jesus disciples and answers from Leggi tutto
