Gnostic Jung and the Seven Sermons to the Dead

Gnosticism like mysticism pursues the inner way; its authority is not external but internal-a living personal experience-but without denying the outer world. Under the guise of Basilides, a second-century AD Gnostic sage, Jung wrote in 1916 the Seven Sermons to the Dead after he had received intense psychic experiences.The author has made his own translation of the sermons and sets forth a lengthy explanation and far-ranging commentary on Jung, Gnosticism, and the present condition of the Western individual. ---Choice ReviewHoeller, Stephan A. is the author of 'Gnostic Jung and the Seven Sermons to the Dead' with ISBN 9780835605687 and ISBN 083560568X.
