The secret teachings of Jesus from the apocryphal and Gnostic Gospels.
During the fouth and fifty centuries of the Common Era--in an attempt to wipe out heresy--hundreds of early Christian texts were destroyed by order of the Toman emperor, Constantine, and the bishops of the Church of Rome.
Thought to have been lost for all time, many of these "heretical" gospels, epistles, apocalypses and apocryphons have been rediscovered during modern times. Other non-canonical texts survived history in whole, or in fragmentary form, and became part of the New Testament Apocrypha. Fragments of still other lost works survived in the form of quotations found in the writings of the early Church fathers.
Now, for the first time ever, the most profound and eloquent of Jesus' lost teachings from thirty-four of these texts (as well as many ilsolated sayings attributed to him) have been brought together in a single volume. In mystical language reminiscent of Krishna in the Bagavad Gita, The Gospel of the Unknown Jesus brings a unique and timely message for all humanity.
Excerpt
"From the place of Light I go forth. I come to feel the hearts, to measure and try all minds, to see in whose heart I dwell--in whole mind I repose. Who thinks of Me, of him I think. Who calls my name, his name I call. Who prays my prayer from down below, his prayer I pray from the place of Light."
(from a Mandaean liturgy)
"I came down to dwell with you so that you in turn could dwell with Me. And in finding your houses open, I made my home in those of you who were willing to receive Me at the time of my descent."
(The Apocryphon of James)
"I am the Light that shines everywhere. I am the All. All things come forth from Me, and all things shall return to Me. Cleave the wood, and I am there. Turn the stone, and there will you find me."
(The Gospel of Thomas)
"I am in you and you are in Me, and where you are, there I Am. I am sown in all things, and when you gather Me, it is you yourself whom you are gathering."
(The Gospel of Eve)
