Gnostic Philosophy. from Ancient Persia to Modern Times
GNOSTIC PHILOSOPHY From Ancient Persia to Modern Times TOBIAS CHURTON Inner Traditions Rochester, Vermont 1 Spiritual values we know; religious values we can only guess at. MICHAEL POWELL TO GAVIN MILLAR, BBC ARENA, 1980 2 Acknowledgments his book could not have been written without the superb facilities of the Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica (J. R. Ritman Library, Amsterdam). I am also indebted to help received from my mother T and father, Victor and Patricia Churton, and from Ms. Sarah Miller. For permission to study the Yorke Collection at the Warburg Institute, I am deeply grateful to the former library curator, Dr. William Ryan. For a series of sparkling interviews, I am likewise indebted to Professors Hans Jonas, Gilles Quispel, Elaine Pagels, and R. McLachlan Wilson, and to the late Dr. Kathleen Raine. Special thanks are also due to Art Schiemann, director of the Warmonderhof Anthroposophical Farm in Holland, for showing me how spirit and nature work together. The chapter on the Knights Templar benefited greatly from the detailed knowledge of the Masonic historian Matthew Scanlan. The friendship, encouragement, good humor, original scholarship, and fraternal guidance of Christopher McIntosh have been central to the long gestation and fruitful birth of this work. In particular, part 3 (“Enlightenment”) owes everything to Dr. McIntosh’s pioneering work in what was the dusty attic of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Freemasonry and occultism. Special thanks are due to my special agent, Tuvia Fogel, for his patient faith. This book has been a long time in coming. There has been turmoil and heart searching. There have also been luminous helpers on the way. -
The Green One
The Green One Paul Cudenec This book is dedicated to all those fighting against the living death of industrial capitalism. Many thanks to Julie OL for having shared a small part of her extensive mythological understanding. Winter Oak Press, Sussex, England, 2017 winteroak.org.uk Copyright © 2017 Paul Cudenec. The author formally retains copyright over this work but permits non- commercial reproduction or distribution ISBN: 978-0-9576566-9-7 It was the voice of the flowers on the West wind, the lovable, the old, the lazy West wind, blowing ceaselessly, blowing sleepily, going Greecewards. “The woods have gone away, they have fallen and left us; men love us no longer, we are lonely by moonlight. Great engines rush over the beautiful fields, their ways lie hard and terrible up and down the land. The cancrous cities spread over the grass, they clatter in their lairs continually, they glitter about us blemishing the night. The woods are gone, O Pan, the woods, the woods. And thou art far, O Pan, and far away.” I was standing by night between two railway embankments on the edge of a Midland city. On one of them I saw the trains go by, once in every two minutes, and on the other, the trains went by twice in every five. Quite close were the glaring factories, and the sky above them wore the fearful look that it wears in dreams of fever. The flowers were right in the stride of that advancing city, and thence I heard them sending up their cry. And then I heard, beating musically up wind, the voice of Pan reproving them from Arcady – “Be patient a little, these things are not for long.” Lord Dunsany, “The Prayer of the Flowers” from his 1915 book Fifty-One Tales I, who am the beauty of the green Earth and the white Moon amongst the stars, and the mystery of the waters, and the desire of the heart of woman and of man, call unto thy soul: arise and come unto me; for I am the Soul of Nature who giveth life to the universe. -
