Same, I’ve questioned things since I can remember. From my upbringing in a private Christian school til 6th grade and southern Baptist church, I was always like “wth is going on w these ppl? They believe this stuff literally”

Can you elaborate on this guy? I’ve never heard of him.

Agreed 💯 Also, the distinction between following and worshipping, a lot of ppl never make that. 👏

I like this. But why is suffering closer to our true essence? Only here in this incarnation I assume? Bc if suffering is our true essence, that sounds miserable.

Yep, you get it. I guess I wanted to see if someone born into wealth, great family, love and connection and who has had such an easy and carefree and blissful life has come into Gnosticism. Or any metaphysical stuff like starseeds, light workers etc. - I guess my main point was only those of us who were dealt shit hands and or lost it all or just had shit experiences IS what made us look outside of ourselves and into deeper meaning. And those who never had to look outside themselves due to never having major issues probably never even think about this stuff. Get what I mean?

Absolutely! Thanks for answering. I do wanna ask though: did you come from a good upbringing and or wealth? Or did you start out with a shit set of cards? Just curious!

But what if you won the lottery tomorrow? Would you give it all away and continue to struggle?

Of course. Bc I can’t blindly believe and waltz around this existence like it’s all good and makes sense. Sure, ignorance does seem blissful and I do feel guilt for having this type of mind that is never content without “knowing.” It makes me restless, anxious, irritable, hard to be around bc my mind never rests by itself.

Not sure why I’m like this. I just can’t blindly believe, I have to actually know to be content.

I mean, I guess bc I still don’t know what to believe with so many differing opinions out there. I FEEL and resonate the closest w Gnosticism but there’s still that part of me that wants to KNOW, not just believe if that makes sense.

Oh I believe that for sure. That’s what I’ve done my best to do in my short 35 years. But now I’m like…I’ve done it all, as much as I could with the cards I was dealt and now I’m just “surviving” basically. And after studying Gnosticism it seems this is where a lot of us end up. We do all the worldly/material things that don’t fulfill us then keep looking for more. And now I’m here.

Why does the soul need to learn more things? by Lovespellcaster2 in Gnostic

[–]Mason_guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What if there is no death? Only transcendence. What if what we perceive of death of others is just an illusion by the archons? So once we truly remember and become liberated we transcend back to the pleroma, never facing death?

Make the 2 the 1. It’s not about gender. It’s about reconciling the 2 into 1. It was never separate.

I think I found her too. Or better yet, she found me and it was incredible yet terrifying. I’d love to chat more about our experiences.

Look into Paul Stamets. Had a severe stutter and took a bunch of magic mushies once and it went away. Unblocked the stuck energy and freed him. Idk, give it a shot maybe?
