Welcome to my website which will be devoted specifically to the subject of gnosticism ~ concentrating on the many writings as contained in THE NAG HAMMADI LIBRARY, which has been called A TREASURE CHEST of SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT, and only found in the desert of Egypt in 1945....

In the following pages, I will attempt to ~ not only define the core nature of these sublime ideas ~ but examine what other scholars have wrtten about these sacred writings and what I PERSONALLY have deduced from its richness!

I have used the metaphor of an elephant to describe these sacred writings, simply because...ONE MUST PUT MANY THINGS TOGETHER BEFORE ONE CAN PERCEIVE ITS TRUE NATURE, AND EVEN THEN, ONE CAN NOT BE ABSOLUTELY SURE ONE HAS COMPLETELY SAVORED ITS SUBLEMNITY!!! [Like a fine meal,
it may beckon one to return to its table again & again & again.]

THIS PRESENT WEBSITE is an attempt to elaborate on a web page I constructed on another website: namely, "THE RELEVANCE OF GNOSTICISM," which can be found via the following URL:

http://hey_223.tripod.com/byronlebeauspoetryampprose/

The name of the above-website also is sprinkled with MANY gnostic ideas among the eigthy some-odd web pages, as of January of 2002....

IT IS MY HOPE THAT YOU, AFTER REVIEWING THESE PAGES, WILL GO ON YOUR OWN JOURNEY "UP THIS MOUNTAIN" SO YOU CAN BETTER APPRECIATE THE BEAUTY OF GOD'S SUBLIME PLAN FOR MAN....
