The material also discusses the 'veil of forgetting' that causes humans to forget their true spiritual nature, allowing for the full exercise of free will.

In 'The Gnostic Gospels', Elaine Pagels delves into the mysteries and meanings of the Gnostic texts discovered at Nag Hammadi in 1945. These texts, including the Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, present a diverse and often conflicting view of Jesus and early Christianity compared to the New Testament. Pagels examines how these gnostic texts challenged the orthodox Christian church, questioning the literal interpretation of Christ's resurrection, the gender of God, and the role of clergy. She highlights the individualistic and democratic nature of Gnosticism, which emphasized self-knowledge and spiritual search over hierarchical church doctrine. The book provides a comprehensive introduction to the gnostic movement and its significance in the history of Christianity.
