Mehr zum Buch

"Not in His Image describes the rich spiritual world of pre-Christian classical Europe?the Pagan Mysteries, the Great Goddess, Gnosis, the myths of Sophia and Gaia?and its future as a force for rebalancing our lives and reconnecting to the earth. In his riveting account of who the Gnostics really were and what they were protesting against, John Lash identifies who we once were, and what has become of our original genius. He describes the decisive arc of history from the dawn of the Christian Era to the present moment of global terror, a trajectory driven by faith-based violence and fundamentalist politics. No scholar has yet plumbed the depths of the Nag Hammadi Library for the profound cosmological myth of our origins and our intimate bond with Gaia, the living planet."--Jacket.
