Gnosticism and the Abraxas by C.W. King is a comprehensive study of the ancient Gnostic religion and its central figure, Abraxas. The book provides an indepth exploration of the origins, beliefs, and practices of Gnosticism, a spiritual movement that emerged in the early Christian era and flourished until the fourth century AD. The author examines the Gnostic cosmology, which posits a dualistic universe of light and darkness, and the role of Abraxas, a godlike figure who embodies both good and evil, in this worldview. King delves into the symbolism and iconography of Abraxas, whose image appears on amulets and other artifacts, and explores the various interpretations of his meaning and significance. The book also discusses the influence of Gnosticism on other religions and philosophies, including Hermeticism, Neoplatonism, and the works of Carl Jung. Gnosticism and the Abraxas is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of religion and spirituality.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Gnostics and their Remains Ancient and Mediaeval, by C.
