Isabella Greene, in her most recent interview with Inspired channel on youtube, was saying that her friend referred her to the Nag Hammadi library which was discovered in Egypt in 1945. It might have been found during a grave robbery. I just touched upon the discovery briefly, but it's always good to know where things come from.
Apparently the Nag Hammadi library was written by "Gnostics". I have heard of gnostics before, and understood that they were related to Christians, but never fully understood their role in things. ... And probably need to do a lot more research to fully understand them.
But, I was doing some deepdive chatgpt work, and it sounds like the Gnostics sect was created at the same time that the Christian sect was created. Around the time of Jesus. I get the impression that some of the apostles may have ventured onto this Gnostic path. And Gnosis means hidden knowledge, I believe. Similar to the word "esoteric". And I remember reading someplace in the Bible that Jesus told certain disciples that he provided them with secret knowledge that they should not share with other people. So maybe these people who received the hidden knowledge were the spark that created the Gnostics. Just speculating there.
And the Gnostics were persecuted at some point in history, and most were geneocided so their writing were burned and they were killed, so mostly the Gnosticism did not carry on in history, which is a huge loss for humanity, as these secret texts probably contained a lot of interesting and useful information. So the discovery of the Nag Hammadi library is a big deal, because it's a small slice into these secret writings that most people didn't have access to.
I need to learn more, but it sounds like one of the most interesting sections in the Gnostic Nag Hammadi literature is the "Apocryphon of John". The term "Apocryphon" (from the Greek word "ἀπόκρυφος", apokryphos, meaning "hidden" or "secret") generally refers to a "secret book" or a "hidden writing."
The Apocryphon of John: This is one of the most well-known texts discovered among the Nag Hammadi Library in 1945. It is a Gnostic text that presents a secret account of creation, the nature of God, and the fall of humanity. The term "Apocryphon" in this case reflects the text’s nature as an esoteric revelation, revealing hidden knowledge about the universe and divine beings.
So, Isabella is saying that some of the information that she teaches, and has come to understand through her own meditations and OBE travels, happens to parallel teachings in the Apocryphon of John. So it was confirmation to her, as she had just discovered the Nag Hammadi texts.
So it kind of sparks my interest in the Gnostics a bit more. Perhaps they were teaching things that are similar to what Isabella Greene was teaching. I don't know how much information is really available about them, because they were genocided and their writings were destroyed, but I would be interested to do some more research into the Nag Hammadi library and see what it has available to teach us.
Although Isabella says that you shouldn't waste too much time learning about this "left-brain" type of stuff, because it will all become available to you by exploring things in the "right-brain".... meaning, if you acheive the VOID state you will personally experience the stuff that they are talking about in the Nag Hammadi literature, so it will be a much richer experience.
