The Gnosis of the Light is one of the few surviving original texts of the Gnostic sect of Christianity, once persecuted to virtual extinction for heresy. Presenting Gnostic theologians' speculations concerning the nature of heaven, the meaning of life, and God, The Gnosis of Light treats complex precepts as living spiritual texts, scrutinized through Fletcher Lamplugh's interpretation and exposition, rather than as the tenets of a dead belief system. The Gnostic emphasis upon seeking the truth is preserved in this brief yet informative, enlightening, and deeply spiritual compendium.
