About A.G.E.A.C. and secret Gnosis

Honestly i was more than 10 years in the second Camera, on short - C2 in the AGEAC, known as Gnostic Association of Etudes Anthropologic and Cultural and late on, after 2020 basically as Geophilosofic Association of Etudes Anthropologic and Cultural. It's THE SAME ASOCIATION, which now, in 2025 is fully developed in South America (i had some friends from Romania which they told me the Association was well developed there between roughly from 2001-2019). Now , in 2025, is well developed in: Paraguay, North Argentina, South of Brazil, and, probably North of Chile. Also some regions of Bolivia and Mexico !

The picture depicted here is the actual >>> Secret Temple <<< of the Second Camera, or C2. Currently, the A.G.E.A.C. is leaded by V.M. (Venerable Master): KWEN KHAN KHU ! The Avatar of this Global Gnostic Association is the physically deceased V.M. SAMAEL AUN WEOR , Logos of the Mars Planet (yeah, that small Red Planet with low gravity), and The Fifth Avatar out of the Seven Ones !!!

C2 Room! There is also a C3 room, that is secret even in front of the C2 members !

The Apocalypse of Hypsiphrone (Poetic reconstruction/expansion of "Hypsiphrone", a fragmentary Nag Hammadi scripture)

The account of the things witnessed by Hypsiphrone

Unveiled within the gardens of her virginity

She listened to her brethren with Phainops the son

And they conversed with each other in a mystery

But her high esteem, caused her to desert the sun

“I was the bright morning star and the first in glory

I went through the pure gardens, and left everyone

And casted myself down to the earth of misery

All my twins and brethren called out to me as one

 

“Again, Hypsiphrone has left the gardens of light

She has left behind the land of her virginity”

Phainops heard the call, and came down from heaven’s height

Hidden, he said to her “I am Phainops. You don’t see

You now err in your arrogant lust to alight

Alight the world without help, perhaps for me to see

The number of man’s remnants, or the whole man’s might

His blood or his soul made of a holy fire from thee

And a torch in his hands, to enlighten this night”

 

As for me, Hypsiphrone, I panicked and replied

"Phainops has not come to me; he has not gone astray

I don’t see a man named Phainops. Why do you hide?

Let me see him, for I fear that I have lost my way”

In which he said to me “Phainops this is; Your guide

I hid as you hid from us, leaving all in dismay”

I saw him, and he said "Hypsiphrone, the misty-eyed

Why do you live outside me as a castaway

Follow me and I will tell you about man spread wide”

 

I followed my guide, though I was in trembling fear

He enlightened me about a fount of blood flowing

That is unveiled by setting it afire to sear

The flesh that clothes all, where the holy seed lays beating

I looked within my heart, where a seed was growing

I then saw a tree bearing white grapes for every year

Twelve types of white grapes, with green cypress leaves blowing

It shone as Phainops himself, reaching the height then clear

He said “This is the tree of the holy living”

 

He picked up my hand, and took me to the world’s height

To a mountain of white, where I could see land and sea

He became a dwarf, and then a giant of might

His clothes shone white light; his face shone like the sun we see

His voice became calm thunder, without lightning’s fright

“Where you are, I am there. I am you, and you are me

In all I am scattered as mustard seeds of white

Wherever you will go, you will reap and gather me

And gathering me, you welcome yourself in light”

 

He continued “But I illuded the entirety

I appeared great to the great, tiny to the tiny

A man to man, and an angel for you to see

I will make you glorious, to see my true glory”

Wrapped in blood and flames, I saw Christ from Galilee

I wept “I, Sophia, abandoned Christ! Forgive me”

Christ took me back home gently, high above man’s sea

To be one, as Adam and Eve will be one and free

In the bridal chamber under the living tree"

 

This marriage is not bound to the darkness of night

This marriage is joined to the garden of pure daylight

(I took some inspiration from the Gospel of Eve and Philip to reconstruct Hypsiphrone, as they all use carnal symbology to convey spiritual awakening, such as the bridal chamber in Philip).

why did the true god not destroy the world of matter after the Demiurge created it?

A question about Demiurge's relationship with the true God: what do you guys think explains why the true god let Demiurge create the material world and didn't undo it immediately? Do you think it has to do with the divine spark within creation and us?

Hello, I'm new to this topic and I would like to know more about it, send me tips or things I can practice, I really appreciate it, thank you very much.

because since I was born I would be something different from others and I recently started thinking differently, like following the flow of life as they say in that certain movie JUST LET GO, but I didn't know it had a name, that's why I'm here and I'd be grateful if you could guide me on this beautiful path, thank you!

Gnosis: The Hypostasis of the Archons

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdCsfQivDXU

"The Reality of the Authorities" is a cyclic text, not unlike the Apocalypse of Adam, designed to educate concerning the physical nature of the cosmic cycle, from creator to redeemer, involving humanity, God, and the nature of ascension, portrayed through characters such as Adam and Eve.

Is Confession part of the AJC?

As the title states,

Do AJC Clergy hear Confession to is it not a part of the Church?

I should add that I do not have an AJC presence in my location.

Samael Aun Weor

I love spiritual quest and I'm glad to share this reflection with you. I am Italian, and I know Gnosis through the teaching of Master Samael Aun Weor,by a gnostic group. I have been interested in Gnosis in various ways, but after years of study and practice I believe that the most interesting way is to attend Gnostic groups that follow Samael, because he is really able to synthesize and concretize numerous aspects of spiritual practices. the group also give to you a lot of material of self-knowing.

Reading one of his books is like going to a restaurant! it means reading a Gnosis that has already been "translated" into modern language and, above all, made extremely practical. I am afraid that it is a waste of time to insist on complicated or even incomprehensible readings when an author of this level offers us a live gnosi. it is not for nothing that he was the one who revived interest in Gnosis on a global level!

According to the Gnostics, it was actually a good thing that Eve got us all expelled from the Garden

Not long ago, I came across a meme that stayed with me much longer than memes typically do. Though I couldn't track it down, I remember it was about the problematic lesson we get from reading the creation of Man in Genesis—originally (we are being told), it was Adam, a man, who begat a woman, not the other way around. It's as if the Bible tells us that men give life, not women.

Reading it, I was instantly reminded of a passage in one of the ancient and very strange texts found near Nag Hammadi.

Reading it for the first time, you get a sense that what you are being told—is not so much the "behind the scenes" version of Genesis—but a completely different and contradictory retelling of that story of creation.

Did you ever read these texts?

What is this symbol and why is it everywhere?

I have seen this in several videos about ancient stuff in the past years. It's on the Amazigh flag, it's on cave paintings, it's on ancient artifacts and most importantly, it's found in several cultures around the world from different periods of pre-history, some were separated by oceans. It's probably something to do with proto-indo-european civilizations.

I remember hearing that it had to do with something other that a male figure, but over time the original meaning was lost and someone projected a male figure on it. It's not the fascinus. If my faint memory isn't failing me, it represented human reproduction and had some metaphysical analogical association with the sun and the four seasons. The Swastika and the star of David (which is older than David) also had the same or a similar meaning. It shows either two humans sitting facing one another in sexual intercourse, and also (or) the sun. And for some reason, it also ended up in the Cyrillic alphabet as letter Ж and in the Amazigh one as letter ⵣ (yaz).

I know that I probably won't find the truth here, but I would like to at least know how its called.

Here are some artifacts and symbols that I found on the internet containing its variations. This symbol is most likely older than 20 thousand years.

Not sure if this relates to gnosis, but is there any connection with the Forbes, Bolton, Habsburg, Kröning to the bloodline of Jesus?

How do Valentinians (both ancient and modern) view the figure of Abraxas?

The Demiurge has caught on to me and is inflicting indescribable pain because of my knowledge

Over the past few 2 years, I have acquired an indescribably large amount of knowledge, but now the demiurge has caught on, around a week ago it sent a wave of chronic pain, constant dystonia, severe constipation and the inability to feel relaxed, I hope this isn't seen as a troll post but I need to say this somewhere because I have no fucking idea what to do, I feel like hell because of knowledge that originally made me feel free and I can't reverse it, what the hell do I even do?

Twinkling Star of Montségur (Choka Poem in honour of Montsegur Day)

Beneath stars twinkling

Sophia and Christ flew down

In the form of birds

In the form of large vultures

Vultures filled with grace

Vultures from the Great Mountains

The Mountains of Snow

They both perched on an ash tree

Whose roots go deep down

To Hades, the home of worms

Whose trunk goes high up

To the Kingdom of Heaven

They watched the white lambs

Twinkling with heavenly spears

Glittering with shields

Shining in holy armour

Gleaming with their swords

Ready to defend their home

Their faithful castle

Against the wolves of Saklas

However old fate

That serpent trapped in hunger

Wanted to slaughter

Every lamb looking upwards

Every faithful lamb

To snuff out their shining light

The light of the world

The two vultures from heaven

Knew this coming fate

And so, they sang in secret

“The home is the spear

The castle is the army

The home is the shield

The castle is the armour

The home is the sword

This small star of holy faith

Will soon disappear

When the red fire rises

From the dying earth

But after a day of toil

You will reunite

As a palace of starlight

And the lambs shall watch

As shining angels at peace

As twinkling stars of the night”

(I was inspired by Homer's The Iliad: Book VII, where Apollo and Athene came down and appeared as vultures on an oak tree, to watch and discuss the battle between the Trojans and Achaians)

Posted this in the normie Christian subreddits too, just looking for answers

People who came to know Christ later in life, I’d like to hear your testimonies. Why did you choose to become a Christian, what led up to it, how do you view faith, and how has yours impacted you?

19M, gay, grew up in a southern independent Baptist church with enough abuse in my childhood and hateful rhetoric against gay people to have turned me against Christian doctrine for the entirety of my adolescence. I’ve since dealt with my own spiritual and existential crises, drug and porn addiction, and severe mental health issues. When I was about 15, I started seeing a Christian “therapist” who tried to make every session into an evangelical intervention and quite literally told me he could see angels in the room. Between that, all the doomsday doctrine that was thrown at me, and the abuse from my parents who told me that they were doing what God wanted, as well as my mental health struggles, I’ve been unable to separate real faith from what I’d call a mass psychosis that I’ve grown up in. I’ve searched every major religion and many obscure ones, dug deep into philosophy, and done copious amounts of mushrooms trying to make sense of the world around me, but the truth feels like what must be most familiar to me. I myself actually wanted to be a Baptist preacher when I was younger. I went to a Christian school and was studying the Bible all the time out of my own free will because I felt like it was my calling and I wanted to be just like my grandfather (my grandparents are two of the only “true Christians” I’ve been fortunate enough to grow up with), but that all changed when one night at my church (I may have been 12/13), we had a youth-led week and that Wednesday night I prepared my own sermon about how we were meant to love everyone, establish true fellowship and confess our sins to one another, and show unconditional love through compassion and support to not just other Christian’s but everyone. The congregation didn’t like the fact that I chose such a topic or the fact that I researched the original Greek translations in tandem with the KJV (the only TRUE Bible 😒), and they made it well known, especially to my parents who took out their embarrassment on me. About a year later, my family finds out I’m gay, their attitude towards me goes from bad to worse, and I apostasized immediately. The most Christian people I’ve ever met have been the absolute worst ones in my life. The devil (if he’s real) is far more busy destroying the church from within than he is out in the rest of the world. Humans are good enough at destroying ourselves on our own.

I’m sorry if this is ramble or made no sense, I’m currently a bit tipsy and just trying to make sense of a lot of stuff. I’ve never been one to just “believe” either. Like if I’m being honest I don’t think I was ever even really a Christian. I just went along with what I was told because I wanted to fit in and I assumed it was fact but began doubting when I was ridiculed for seeking evidence. I know there’s something out there, and I want to believe in something. I’ve felt so empty for such a long time and I agree with the messages of the gospels, but that’s about it. I just want to hear new stories, new perspectives.
