Course in Gnosticism
The following is a course in Gnosticism that gives you a foundation in Sophian tradition and Gnostic ideas. This course is meant for people at a distance and those that want a kick start on the path. Feel free to email +Yonah at any time with questions about these lessons or the teachings. With each step, after passing the summary, you will receive a certificate that states that you have passed that level of the course work. It is highly encouraged that you either attend physical circle or seek mentoring if you live at a distance once you have completed this course so that you can continue on your path of knowledge.
After lesson 2 we also offer the ability to sign up for an email buddy. Email +Yonah and ask for a contact. He will set you up with someone who you can email basic questions to and dialog about your path. It's a good way to get more comfortable with the Tradition and your studies.
