(Gnostic Talk) I've stopped calling him "Jesus" (Yehoshua, YHWH, Tetragrammaton, Rabbi, Son of Zeus, Yazoo, Lord, Kristos, Emmanuelle, Christ, Father, Patriarch, Joshua, Yeshua, Y'shua): His true Gnostic name changes every Christian prayer ever uttered.
Dead Sea Scrolls reveal truth about many revisions and changes of our flawless "Bible"
(Ambrose Discovery) The Dead Sea Scrolls just decoded by AI...and the mess it reveals in who authored the "Bible" is far worse than anyone thought
(Gnostic Talk) The Serpent in the Gnostic version of the Garden of Eden was the Aeon and Goddess of Wisdom Sophia, the Goddess of Wisdom, out to make things right and help Adamand savior-helper Eve (members of the Adama), the progenitors of this iteration of humanity. What she gave us is still inside us no matter how much the evil DemiurgeYaldabaoth, Yahweh, and His Archons try to deceive us. It is far better to know and be free than to live in blissful ignorance in a Sumerian garden tended by self-arrogating and self-aggrandizing and self-proclaimed Jews as distinct from the "Goy."
I said thou shalt not eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil or shalt surely DIE! And that that Serpent, crawling on its belly as it shall now, should say different, don't listen to that creature. Obey me! For I am thy Demiurge, I mean, thy God Almighty, builder of heaven and then earth, and maker of everything and controller of all with the help of my Archons. Behold! No, no, turn away, for you cannot bear my visage. Just obey, OBEY!
(Discernment Made Clear) Why Serpent (not "Satan" except later in New Testament commentary as an explanation) only spoke to the woman Eve in Genesis? No one told us this!
The Gospel of Philip: "Ignorance [Buddhism's avijja] is the mother of all evil [bad karma born of greed, hatred, and fear], not malice, not weakness, ignorance." That is why Buddhism and Gnosticism are classified as "wisdom traditions."
If the Christ is the "Anointed One," what is that oil with which he, Jesus (and various apostles), was anointed? He is not an earthly king the way Emperor Constantine's Roman Empire might have us believe, but he was initiated into the "mysteries" of an entheogenic cult (spiritual community) that made him realize his (and our) divinity.
(Primeval Archives and Primeval Mythology) Gnostic Jesus is one of the most mysterious and controversial figures in early Christian history. [The other prominent figure was "Saint Paul" (Saul of Tarsus), who actually invented the Pauline "Christianity" people follow today.
Hidden within the discovered library of Nag Hammadi, a trove of ancient manuscripts uncovered in Egypt in 1945, are teachings that reveal a radically different message from the Jesus most people today think they know.
These forgotten writings -- including the lost Gospel of Thomas, the Secret Book of John, and the Gospel of Judas -- suggest that Jesus did not come to create a religion, but to awaken humanity through gnosis, the direct knowledge of the divine within.
According to Gnostic teachings, the material world is a prison created by a flawed and genocidal deity (the Demiurge Yaldabaoth/Yahweh) and lower cosmic rulers called Archons, while the True Divine Source, the real GOD (the Monad), exists beyond the physical universe.
Why were these liberating texts declared "heresy" and ordered to be destroyed by politically and financially motivated early church leaders?
What did Gnostic Jesus actually teach about reality, the soul, and spiritual awakening? This video explores the hidden philosophy of Gnosticism, the secrets of the Nag Hammadi library, and forbidden ideas that were saved by being buried for over 1,600 years.
Gnosticism (from Ancient Greek γνωστικός, Gnōstikós, "having knowledge," Koine Greek ɣnostiˈkos) is a collection of religious and philosophical systems that fully developed by the mid-second century among sects of early Christianity and other faiths [1, 2].
It is not a homogeneous tradition or "religion," but an umbrella term used by modern scholars to describe diverse groups and belief systems with shared characteristics [3].
These diverse Gnostic groups emphasized personal experiential spiritual knowledge (gnosis) above the authority, the traditions, and the proto-orthodox teachings of organized religious institutions [4].
Sethianism: Sethians (Greek Σηθιανοί) were one of the main currents of Gnosticism during the 2nd-3rd century AD, along with Valentinianism and Basilidianism. It originated as a fusion of two distinct Hellenistic (Greek) Judaic philosophies influenced by Christianity and Middle Platonism [1]. More
The Gnostic worldview distinguishes between a hidden, uncorrupted Supreme Being (the Monad, "the One") and a flawed Demiurge ("Craftsman," Creator) responsible for creating this material reality.
Gnostics hold that this material existence is evil and believed the principal element of salvation was direct knowledge of the supreme divinity, attained via mystical, esoteric insight.
Many Gnostic texts instead of dealing in concepts of "sin," "guilt," "repentance," and "imperial control," but with dispelling illusions and gaining enlightenment, direct knowing-and-seeing [5]. More

(MorgueOfficial) Premiered Sept. 20, 2025: I’m going to prove that the deity Christians call God is actually the Devil. How? Let's look at PROOF in the Bible itself -- not the cherrypicked verses they spoon feed us on Sunday mornings. I mean the raw, uncut, crazy parts they hope we never open to. And guess what? I’m not the first person to notice. The Gnostics knew it. Some of the first Christians read these very same verses and said, "Yeah, this ‘God’ is totally evil."
(BIBLE STORY) Sept. 30, 2024: What if everything we thought we knew about God and the Bible is wrong?
This video dives deeply into the ancient Nag Hammadi texts and diverse Gnostic beliefs that the creator of our world isn’t the loving God we’ve been taught to worship but rather the Demiurge—a false jealous god (Yaldabaoth?) who seeks to control and keep us in ignorance.
With hidden wisdom and forgotten scriptures, we explore how the Gnostics saw the material world as a prison and the serpent in Eden as a liberator offering forbidden knowledge.
Discover the radical ideas that challenge mainstream religion, revealing that true salvation may rest in breaking free from that Demiurge's control.
From wiseSophia’s role as the guide to enlightenment to the real meaning behind Jesus’ teachings, this video questions everything. Ready to explore the truth that’s been buried for centuries? Hit play and behold!
Who is the Mother of Wisdom in ancient proto-India? It is Shari (Sari), mother of Śāriputra (the "Son of Sari," Upatissa), the Buddha's chief male disciple declared "foremost in wisdom," the counterpart of Khema, the Buddha's chief female disciple declared "foremost in wisdom." In Vedic Maha Bharat and later in Hindu India, the Goddess of Wisdom is known as Saraswati. In Europe and the West (list of knowledge deities), we say it is the Goddess Sophia. But the Gnostics knew that long ago. And this "Sara" seems reflected in the Aryan ("Enlightened") Taras, goddesses in Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism.
Mary Magdalene: The Divine Feminine Returns and the Truth They Tried to Bury
(The Gnostic Eye) What if everything we’ve been told about Mary Magdalene is a carefully crafted illusion to deceive us?
For nearly two thousand years, her true story was hidden—buried beneath deliberate distortion, deception, dogma, and legend.
Let's unravel the real history of Mary Magdalene, the Lost Gospels, the Gnostic Gospels before them, and the rise of the Divine Feminine—revealing why her wisdom was so threatening to the early Church, and how her true teachings could change everything we thought we knew about Jesus Christ, spirituality, and the sacred feminine.
TIMESTAMPS:
00:00 – Why they lied about Mary Magdalene
04:13 – Lost Gospels and the Suppression of the Divine Feminine
08:49 – The Seven Demons: Spiritual Transformation
13:20 – Forbidden Teachings, Sacred Bloodline, and the Real Holy Grail
17:48 – Why Mary Magdalene’s legacy matters now (and what was hidden)
Discover the secret role of Mary Magdalene in the life of Jesus the Nazarene (possibly Essene), the suppressed Gnostic texts, the real meaning of the “seven demons” [or levels we must all ascend for real salvation], and the mysterious clues left in ancient art and legend.
We’ll explore her connection to the Holy Grail, the sacred bloodline theories (the real sacred vessel/Holy Grail Dan Brown pointed to), and the powerful spiritual truths the Church tried to erase.
Whether we’re seekers, history buffs, or drawn to esoteric wisdom, this video is a gateway to the truth they tried to hide about Magdalene.
Did Jesus (Saint Issa, Yeshua, Jehoshua) travel to India, Persia, and Tibet to continue his spiritual education outside of Bethlehem and the Nazarenes (vegan/vegetarians) and Essenes? Did he in fact, as Cayce reported during trance channeled readings, have past lives (rebirths) to develop the qualities he would need to become a Christ figure ("Messiah," Maitreya figure) in his most recent human life like some kind of Buddhist bodhisattva?
Were the Essenes the original Christians? Dr. Richard Carrier
(MythVision Podcast) This video was edited by Mark Casale (vimeo.com/showcase/4922525). The Essenes (Modern Hebrew אִסִּיִים, Isiyim, Greek Ἐσσηνοί, Ἐσσαῖοι, or Ὀσσαῖοι, Essenoi, Essaioi, Ossaioi) were a mystic Jewish sect during the Second Temple period that flourished from the 2nd century BCE to the 1st century CE. #MythVision #RichardCarrier #Essenes
(ESOTERICA) Philo of Alexandria held that the Essenes were the exemplar of the Active Philosophical Life among ancient Jews. And with the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls we now know much more about that ancient sect. However, Philo held there was a mystical group superior to even them in their piety and rigor. The Egyptian Therapeutae were held up as paragons of the Contemplative Life, even giving mystical teachings while dreaming. What do we know about the Therapeutae? Let's explore how these ancient Jewish mystics not only led lives of exceptional purity and mystical contemplation but also inspired the rise of Monasticism in early Christianity. Also....they might have been Buddhists.
The Jewish historian Josephus [possibly a Pharisee] records that Essenes existed in large numbers, and thousands lived throughout Roman Judaea, but they were fewer in number than the Pharisees and the Sadducees, the other two major sects at the time.
The Essenes lived in various cities but congregated in communal life dedicated to voluntary poverty, daily [baptismal] immersion, and asceticism (with their priestly class practicing celibacy). Most scholars claim they seceded from the Zadokite priests.

The Dead Sea Scrolls: Genesis Apocryphon, treasures of the ancient Essenes (wiki)
The lost treasure of the Israelites: The Temple, the Essenes, and the Copper Scroll
(ESOTERICA)
April 4, 2025: Among the Dead Sea Scrolls, a mysterious scroll chiseled into copper details the location of more than 60 treasures of gold, silver, ritual vessels, and more.
Discovered in 1952 and opened in 1955, the Copper Scroll has fired the imaginations of scholars and treasure-hunters alike. But the language of the text is difficult: Strange Greek letters appear, and ancient abbreviations have made the text difficult to decode.
What are the treasures of the Copper Scroll? Where do they come from, the mysterious Essenes or the Jerusalem Temple? Are the treasures still to be found in the hills and deserts around Jericho? Let's explore the 3Q15, the Copper Scroll
God wants us to kill. He commands it. You get no choice. Read the Book of Judges. He likes genocide. He demands children be stoned to death for disobedience. Who in the h*ll do you think you are to resist His will, His written word? Kill, kill, kill. The Bible also promotes rape and slavery, whew. Does that sound like what Jesus taught? We knew the religion we were born into was rotten, a deception. Gnostic.org has a far better exposition of Christian truth long hidden by the institution of the church. But Christians are too scared to hear it. Here a non-Gnostic explores how the real teachings of Jesus Christ (possibly Bodhisattva Saint Issa) are hidden by church officials to keep us from the truth. We could all get along in the world, but the powers that be will not stand for that. There's too much to be made to keep us the way we are, with apologists galore trying to make excuses of unimaginable proportions.
