In the lost Garden of Eden, after tasting the bitter fruit from the Tree of Knowledge, Jesus has a vision of the afterworld's dread abyss, a thousand years after the apocalypse. Mephisto, the Spirit that negates, has negated every possible outcome, and sits on the throne of Oblivion, until he rises into moral consciousness, and reconnects with his human self, the noble man Job, and realizes the eternal drama he's been a part of, cycle after cycle, as the flawed demiurge who must slay himself to give birth to the next world. This story is what happens when the god descends into the underworld and fights for Life.
What takes place in this vision is a mythic pilgrimage to reconstruct the soul, where we learn the secret truth of Job's fall. The Epic of Gnosis is a disciplined meditation on Good and Evil, redemption, the role of the Tree of Life and Knowledge, what they mean psychologically.
Experience the unsung mystical crucible that's rife with metaphors, poetry, and philosophical dialogues with angels and primordial beings. It takes place during Jesus' missing years, and allowed him, through the eyes of the fallen Job, to bring about the divinity within, giving Jesus the capacity for universal love and forgiveness. The Epic of Gnosis gives form to a dream within a dream, but much more than a dream-a journey to the unconscious, to penetrate the foundation, the soul, in order to mend the root of Life.
