The Mystical Order of the Gnostics

Image
The Mystical Order of the Gnostics The Gnostics believe that the essential nature of the human being is divine. They look upon men and women as Gods and Goddesses who have forgotten who they are. It is from this predicament that the Gnostic aspires to be freed by Gnosis. The objective of Gnosis is to give humanity a key with which every  living being may assimilate the Christ-principle (consciousness) contained within the foundation of all the great religions of the world. While the study of these materials will be helpful to the sincere student, they can only be comprehended if combined with practical application in one's daily life.  -GNOSIS IS UNIVERSAL- "The world knows many religions, but nature has but one truth."  - Manly P.

The collective unconscious:  Nature as a proper guide Nature is an incomparable guide if you know how to follow her. She is like the needle of the compass pointing to the North, which is most useful when you have a good man-made ship and when you know how to navigate. If you follow the river, you surely come to the sea finally. But if you take it literally you soon get stuck in an impassable gorge and you complain of being misguided. The unconscious is useless without the human mind. It always seeks its collective purposes, or the common good, and never your individual destiny (interest). Your destiny is the result of the collaboration between the conscious and the unconscious.~Carl Jung, Letters Volume 1, Page 283. It is an astonishing fact, indeed, that the collective unconscious seems to be in contact with nearly everything. There is of course no empirical evidence for such a generalization, but plenty of it for its indefinite extension.  ~Carl Jung, Le
