The Ginza - Mandean Gnostic Audiobook with Text and Visuals. The most significant holy book of the Mandaeans is the Ginza. The Ginza, whose title means “treasure,” is also known as the “great book.” It is divided into two parts, the right Ginza and the left Ginza, the former containing mythological and theological materials, the latter songs for the rituals for the dead. In the selections from the Ginza presented here, the world of light and the world of darkness is portrayed with beautiful and powerful images found in the the Mandaean tradition. Please note that this is not the full Ginza Rba, the Canonical Prayerbook of the Mandaeans, but instead the selective version found in Willis Barnstone and Marvin Meyer's Gnostic Bible which can found at https://amzn.to/35oRC9b Please consider supporting my work and download this audio as part of the ESOTERIC AND OCCULT WISDOM - MASTER COLLECTION (an ongoing collection of Gnostic, alchemical, Hermetic, and related occult/spiritual audio projects that span dozens of hours) at https://altrusiangrace.bandcamp.com/ *JOIN MY PATREON at https://www.patreon.com/altrusiangracemedia *BECOME A YOUTUBE CHANNEL MEMBER at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMzRTOugvDLwhSwJdoSWBZA/join *JOIN THE CULT OF STARRY WISDOM at https://altrusiangrace.bandcamp.com/starry-wisdom-cult *FOLLOW THE AGM PODCAST at https://altrusiangracemedia.podbean.com *MY TSHIRTS AND DESIGNS ON AMAZON at https://amzn.to/3peS9j3 *MY NEW 2022 MERCH LINE "OCCULT NOUVEAU" at https://amzn.to/3OeUHZL *MY TSHIRTS AND DESIGNS ON TEEPUBLIC at https://teepublic.sjv.io/XxvPDX *LICENSE MY MUSIC FOR YOUR PROJECT at https://www.pond5.com/artist/altrusiangracemedia *MY BOOKS ON AMAZON at https://amzn.to/3oQGh6A As an Amazon Associate I earn a small amount from qualifying purchases and it helps to support my channel.

The Kephalaia - Manichaean Gnostic Codices - Audiobook w/text. The Kephalaia, meaning the headings or central principles, is a series of chapters of varying length that present Mani discussing basic Manichaean doctrine with his students. Here two Kephalaia are given, 26 and 38. In Kephalaion 26 Mani tells five stories or parables about the primal man, the third messenger, and the role of the living spirit in bringing redemption. In Kephalaion 38 Mani offers a Manichaean cosmogony. He describes the universe in human form, and he relates the cosmic human to the individual human. Thus the cosmogonic account, for all its complexity, becomes the story of the individual person living out his or her life. The gods in the outer zone are remote, transcendent, but the actions of the light mind are intimate and accessible.

Poetry Reading and Conversation Willis Barnstone, Aliki Barnstone, and Tony Barnstone Presented in partnership with Saint Julian Press Poetry offers a window to the Holy that dialogue cannot, reflecting essential human truths in artful form. Join a unique opportunity to engage with three acclaimed and evocative poets from the Barnstone family in a sacred place that is also rich with family history. The Rothko Chapel was designed, in part, by the architect Howard Barnstone, Willis’ brother. Each of the poets will read from their collections, examining their concepts of the Divine and challenging our own, as well as engage in conversation with each other and the audience. Music will be performed before and during the program by Max Dyer, cellist. A reception and book signing follow the program. About the poets: Willis Barnstone is a poet, memoirist, translator, Hispanist and comparatist, who has written more than 70 books of scholarship and poetry.

He is a Guggenheim Fellow, the distinguished professor of Comparative Literature Emeritus and senior scholar in the Institute of Biblical and Literary Studies at Indiana University.

She serves as Poet Laureate of Missouri and is Professor of English and Creative Writing at the University of Missouri. Tony Barnstone is a poet, author, essayist and literary translator.

About the Series: Concept of the Divine series provides a unique opportunity for speakers to share how their personal concept of the Divine has changed over time and shaped their lives, their service to the community, and views about their place in the cosmos.

This was a tough one. That's all I got. Love you, Matt! I Live yet do not Live in MeI live yet do not live in me,am waiting as my life goes by,and die because I do not die.No longer do I live in me,and without God I cannot live;to him or me I cannot givemy self, so what can living be?A thousand deaths my agonywaiting as my life goes by,dying because I do not die.This life I live alone I viewas robbery of life, and soit is a constant death — with noway out until I live with you.God, hear me, what I say is true:I do not want this life of mine,and die because I do not die.Being so removed from you I saywhat kind of life can I have herebut death so ugly and severeand worse than any form of pain?I pity me — and yet my fateis that I must keep up this lie,and die because I do not die.The fish taken out of the seais not without a consolation:his dying is of brief durationand ultimately brings relief.Yet what convulsive death can beas bad as my pathetic life?The more I live the more I die.When I begin to feel reliefon seeing you in the sacrament,I sink in deeper discontent,deprived of your sweet company.Now everything compels my grief:I want — yet can’t — see you nearby,and die because I do not die.Although I find my pleasure, Sir,in hope of someday seeing you,I see that I can lose you too,which makes my pain doubly severe,and so I live in darkest fear,and hope, wait as life goes by,dying because I do not die.Deliver me from death, my God,and give me life; now you have wounda rope about me; harshly boundI ask you to release the cord.See how I die to see you, Lord,and I am shattered where I lie,dying because I do not die.My death will trigger tears in me,and I shall mourn my life: a dayannihilated by the wayI fail and sin relentlessly.O Father God, when will it bethat I can say without a lie:I live because I do not die?Translated by Willis BarnstoneSt John of the Cross
