Gnosis: The Secrets of Solomon's Temple Revealed


Listen Later

Explore the concept of "gnosis" as a direct, mystical experience of the divine within oneself, distinguishing it from intellectual dogma. Gardiner, whose work is praised for its clarity and depth, challenges conventional historical and religious narratives, particularly regarding the literal existence of Solomon's Temple, instead positing it as a symbolic representation of inner enlightenment. The text extensively connects serpent symbolism, ancient myths, and various spiritual traditions (including Gnosticism, Sufism, and alchemy) to the idea of an innate human potential for illumination, often referred to as the "Shining Ones" or "Kundalini" energy. It also examines concepts of internal balance—will, strength, and knowledge—as crucial for achieving this enlightened state, while suggesting that established religions have often suppressed these truths for control. The included timeline and dictionary entries further reinforce the author's interdisciplinary approach to uncovering hidden wisdom across cultures and throughout history.
