Gnosis of the Cosmic Christ: A Gnostic Christian Kabbalah

by Tau Malachi

The noble idea of the Christian Kabbalah is not so much the worship of Jesus Christ, but rather a conscious evolution toward a divine or super-humanity. In this regard, Christian Kabbalah is quite different from its Jewish roots, and Gnostic Christianity is very different from orthodox Christianity. Both are about experiencing God and evolving toward God, rather than just studying theology.

This groundbreaking work is the first to present the Christian Gnosis of the Kabbalah in a practical and deeply esoteric way. It takes the reader from the basic ideas of the Kabbalah to in-depth explorations of the Tree of Life. Gnostic legends and myths of the Holy Mother, St. Lazarus, St. Mary Magdalene, and Jesus are woven into the study of the Holy Sefirot as well as commentaries on the Ten Commandments and The Beatitudes of the Sermon on the Mount.

[JHM]

I'm not going to rate this, but I'm not finishing it because in several important ways it is in conflict with hermetic Kabbalah, which I've been studying.

Tau Malachi himself points out that there are different paths and schools of Kabbalah, and I'm not criticizing him for being other than my own school, just deciding that the topic is complex enough without mixing teachings that are not compatible.

The mystery of christ is the path he walked.
