Ebook: The Gospel of Thomas: The Gnostic Wisdom of Jesus

In this new translation of the Gospel of Thomas, Jean-Yves Leloup shows that the teachings of Jesus recorded by the "infinitely skeptical and infinitely believing" Thomas have much in common with gnostics of non-dualistic schools. Like them, Jesus preaches the coming of a new man, the genesis of the man of knowledge. In this gospel, Jesus describes a journey from limited to unlimited consciousness. The Jesus of Thomas invites us to drink deeply from the well of knowledge that lies within, not that we may become good Christians but so we may attain the self-knowledge that will make each of us, too, a Christ.
