^Thanks for bringing up John Lamb Lash, jamie.

I had wanted to, but as you know he takes some very strong stances & I don't really have enough free time to get deeply engaged in forum discussions.

Regardless, his explication of Gnosticism (and many other wonderful things) is by far the most cogent, coherent, integral, & visionary that I know.

I think about GaiaSophia every single day, & Love Her deeply.

Her molten, pearly Light has become evermore present & tangible after I performed the Gaian Tantra Vow (where I consecrated my life to Her while bleeding into the Earth).

I'm pleased to note that one essential aspect of Lashian Gnosticism is the absolute exclusion of any & all Christian elements, which are considered inherently archontic in nature...

But yes, best to get it from the man himself - Metahistory
