Status Updates From Manuscript Found in Accra

Ch 9: On choices. See the world with fresh eyes. Break from routine.

The book feels like a self-help book presented as a lost book of the Bible. Basically, what would Jesus say if he had another 1000 years to think about his message?

I would like a little more narrative.

Ch 7: On beauty. Physical beauty is a manifestation of inner beauty. Live for yourself, not others.

Ch 8: On choices. Enthusiasm and respect for the mystery of life are the best ways to find "meaning" in life.

Ch 8: On love. An act of faith, not an exchange.

Overarching theme of the nature of existence being inherently unknowable and mysterious. To attempt to capture it is to rob it of its beauty.

Ch 4: On solitude. Love, art, self-realization cannot exist without it

Ch 5: On uselessness. Live not to be useful; just be yourself. Everything has a purpose.

Ch 6: Embrace change, which is the way of nature. Take the first step; it will get easier.

More Jesusy allusions. "Blessed are the..." "Woe to the..."

"In the silence of the night, they fight their imaginary battles... And they promise themselves: "Tomorrow will be different." But tomorrow comes into the paralyzing question surfaces in their mind: What if it doesn't work out? And so they do nothing."

The Nag Hammadi Library alone doesn't make up the entirety of the Apocryphal Gospels ?

Re: pg 2 "In AD 170..." Not true. The context of the authorship of the Muratorian fragment is unkown. The 27 books of the NT weren't finalized until 367 AD with the 39th Festal Letter

"In the cycle of nature there is no such thing as victory or defeat; there is only movement."

a book that functions as a balm.
