32 Gnostic Affirmations (extracted from the 22 chapters of the book "The Forbidden Religion")
1- Jehovah does not want man to know his origin and his high destiny. He has forbidden him all contact with the upper world. He wants man to reflect him, the Creator, and not the Supreme God.
2- As the creator cursed the Serpent when it spoiled his plans and ruined his work, so must the creator be cursed for every man who has awakened. As the creator cursed the Serpent of Salvation, so shall the creator be cursed for as long as he exists, for every Spirit released from his clutches.
3- It is the divine energy of the imprisoned Spirit that drove and drives the evolution of the animal-man!
4- The Gnostics do not want to wait billions of years. Gnostics want to be liberated now, as soon as possible. And not only liberate themselves. They also want to put an end to this whole satanic system, to the breathings of the demiurge, to his insane plans, to the torment of the imprisoned spirits, to the successive creations and destructions, to the deaths and reincarnations, to all that is created, to all that is impure, and to the demiurge as well.
5- The worst thing that can be done to the Truth is to ban it. It will have the opposite effect: it will emerge with greater force and violence.
6- That is what fear is for and that is what the conspiracy is for: so that no one can ever find the Way of Liberation and Return.
7- The aim of these religions is to keep man asleep, leading him blindly towards the final slaughter: his fusion with the demiurge.
8- If they could endure their vision without dying, they would see only nameless darkness, for they would be seeing the True Light.
9. The Spirit Warriors abhor matter. They are destroyers, yes, but destroyers of the impure.
10- Only the absurd, the sick, that which imprisons the Spirit, the coffin that envelops it: the body and the soul of the animal mistakenly called man, would be destroyed.
11. And the day when all that is useless will be destroyed, the day when all creation and its creator will be disintegrated, when nothing will remain, not an atom, not a body, not a soul, only the Spirits will remain, liberated forever. There will be no more duality and the world will be one again: Eternal Unknowable Fire.
12. The Gnostics conclude that if these laws are those of the demiurge, they can and must be disobeyed.
13- Whatever the creator declares, whatever he commands, whatever he demands must be disobeyed, for that is not the True God but an impostor who believes himself to be "the One".
14. Through his permanent opposition, the Gnostic gradually acquires a power equal to and then superior to that of the creator god.
15- What is happening is that there is something in man that has not been created by the creator God: the Eternal Spirit.
16. All rebellion comes from the Spirit. It is the uncreated in man that abhors and opposes the creator satan and his work.
17- The creator god exists, but he must be eliminated by man.
18. The duality of worlds must be eliminated by man. There will then be but one kingdom: that of the Unknowable God.
19- Most do not want to know the truth: that they inhabit a gigantic insane asylum devised and controlled by the Supreme Madman.
20. His impure body and soul have been divinised by the Spirit and no longer belong to the demiurge. His body, soul and Spirit have become one: indestructible, immortal and eternal.
21- The Way of the Right Hand, to the Demiurge, through the perfecting of the soul, or the Way of the Left Hand, to the Unknowable, through the liberation of the Spirit.
22. The true kaivalya inevitably comprises total and absolute separation from the demiurge himself.
23. This is the natural hostility of the spirit towards the demiurge and his work. If the Spirit were to feel love towards the demiurge and his creation, it would not be a Spirit, it would be a soul. The soul is pure love (for the demiurge and his work). Spirit is pure hatred (of the demiurge and his work).
24- It is good to remember that, although persecuted and denied, there is also the liberation and realisation of the Spirit.
25- The initiate recognises the Unknowable God, rejects the authority of the creator god and his commandments, and declares that he has been forever delivered from the power of the demiurge.
26. Through initiation, the initiate has radically changed his relationship to the creator god. He has separated himself from the demiurge and from all creation. He has separated himself from his body and soul. He has been cut off from the laws that govern the world of matter and time. He has been cut off from everything but his Spirit.
27- "I want to separate myself from the creator god and his creation, I want to separate myself from matter and time, I want to separate myself from my body and soul, I want to unite with my Spirit, I want my Spirit to be released, I want to be my Spirit, I am my Spirit".
28. Originally impure, demiurgic and perishable matter, the body and soul will be transmuted by the Spirit into divine and eternal matter: the indestructible vajra. The mud and the breath of the demiurge will thus become pure and glorious. They will form with the Spirit a single entity, inseparable and indissoluble for all eternity.
29. The triumphant Spirit has wrested from the demiurge part of his creation, a body and a soul, and has transformed them into divine matter over which he no longer has control. By the power of the Spirit the created has been transmuted into the uncreated!
30- The hour of the Spirit's vengeance has come.
31. The body and soul, divinised and incorporated by the Spirit, will be the trophy which it will eternally display as a memento of its triumphant passage through the perverse world of created matter.
32. Thus, all duality will have disappeared and the world will again be one: the Eternal Kingdom of the True and Unknowable God.
