The Dark Secret of the Gnostic Creation Story

Gnostic Creation Stories are a retelling of tales inspired by Gnostic cosmology. Following the fall of the Divine Feminine Goddess Sophia and her descent from gnostic heaven known as the Pleroma. In her descent she would give birth to a false god known as Yaldabaoth who would go on to create planet earth, trapping souls in human bodies and separating them from the truth of Gnosis - Spiritual Enlightenment.

🤔 What is Gnosticism? 🧐

Gnosticism is an ancient religious and philosophical belief system that emerged in the early centuries of the Common Era. It encompasses a diverse range of mystical teachings and spiritual perspectives. At its core, Gnosticism centers on the notion of gnosis, which means "knowledge" in Greek.

What is Gnosis?

In Gnostic thought, this knowledge is considered to be a special, transcendent wisdom. It is often portrayed as a hidden knowledge, reserved for a select few who seek to liberate themselves from the constraints of the material world and its illusions.

Central to Gnosticism is the idea of a stark duality between the spiritual realm, associated with the divine and the true nature of reality, and the material world, which is seen as a flawed creation. The creator of the material world, sometimes known as the Demiurge, is often depicted as a lesser, ignorant deity responsible for trapping human souls in a state of ignorance and suffering.

Gnosticism emphasizes the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment and salvation through direct, personal experience of this hidden knowledge, often attained through mystical practices and insights. Different Gnostic sects have developed various mythologies, cosmologies, and ethical teachings, but the overarching theme remains the same: seeking liberation from the constraints of the material world and returning to the spiritual realm of ultimate truth and freedom.

Thank you for this video presentation. I am a recovered schizophrenic who had a vision of a serpentine entity with a lion-like face coming out of a portal and entering a cloud that formed in my room and then of a beautiful looking feminine/androgynous porcelain faced entity with radiant energetic discharges that looked like wings. This all happened back in 1991. Needless to say, I just discovered Gnosticism in 2020. This stuff is real but there are many different interpretations and variations in the Gnostic cosmology depending on the particular ancient sect (i.e., Sethians, Valentinians, etcetera.) Elaine Pagels did a lot of work on interpreting the Nag Hammadi Library and published some very informative books on the subject. April DeConick is another good source on the topic. There is something going on beyond the veil but I don’t think anyone is entirely sure what it’s all about.

i got into h. p. lovecraft because i like horror fantasy and cosmic horror is the best. that said, i find it even more terrifying that our real world ancient knowledge falls on the same lines. and your work is amazing for telling the gnostic story. thank you very much, from a theosophical standpoint.

[metajester]

I think im gravitating toward the Gnostic beliefs. I have a deep adoration for Sophia.

[iamtheangeloflight]

Never before I saw such a concise and good explanation for the gnostic myth. Keep up with the great work!

[janemarie]

This is by far the Coolest thing I've Ever Watched!

Sophia gave birth to a lion headed snake called Yaldabaoth the demiurge, who created the archons who trap humans into the reincarnation cycle.

[I_scribbles]

Seriously powerful!
ripped open my chest
took me to that place when you feel the truth and it so moving you can do nothing but shed tears of a relief and sadness for home. It hits the spiritual tuning fork within.

[z-gznv]

Yo I need more haha this was really good

[steveirwin]

Okay, this is uncanny. Your portrayal of Barbelo around 2:30 is EXACTLY how I saw her in my head when I first learned about gnosticism. Heck I even wondered WHY I saw her like that, it was as if the image had beamed into my head. So to see that now in a random youtube animation is, like, "what?"

Anyway good job, beautiful animation.

[johnalexir]

This is a sympathetic interpretation of Yaldabaoth; some accounts are much darker than this. Its hard to say which is true. Good video either way (good music too). Somehow it seems right that Sophia would have an English accent lol

[WEOUTSIIDE]

What program are you using ? This is awesome I want to use the same program please

[willlull]

Bythos, the depth is not the masculine principle to Barbelo, the great mother. Which document is this?

[PistisSophia]

Resonates very deeply. First time hearing this.

[GeorgeZimmermen]

Yeah, but where is this coming from? Where did the gnostics learn this story? Was this in some sort of bible or holy text or something?

[careottjuice]

Yeah it makes no sense that in the beginning, "God" was alone in the dark with water, and created the new Jerusalem later....

[-e-]

I think a more appropriate title for Sophia would be "Goddess of Reckless Curiosity" rather than one who epitomizes Wisdom.

[entertainmentv]

Great job with this! Beautiful! As a Sethian, I approve!

[pard]

In our world the lyers always win and always rule.

[lloydbrannan]

It is a nice cartoon and would make a good fairytail but that is all. It may have some distorted elements of truth but it is no way the truth. You proclaim balance but you remove all negative aspects of the story. The horror of it. lol
