Still not always on the same page with him when it comes to his ideas about
the lack of difference between composition and improvisation - his confusing
the thing with the event - and I've mentioned this to him, but he's always an
interesting read even tho this is (blissfully) short.

A good translator has to be really clever

this book, or a book called "The Secret Teachings of all Ages" by Manly P. Hall, has to be the more interesting books I have.

this Gnostic Bible is nice because it really gives a nice translation of the texts that you can read and form your own opinion. im not an gnostic expert by far, but ive read a lot of the books in this cannon because they are short. it has Islamic texts in it also, which I thought was nice because I personally wouldn't have gone out of my way to buy any mystical Islamic texts. ive had the book since 2013 and its been sort of nice knowing i have so much more to read still. If youre wondered "what's in the book?" it has so much that its hard to say whats NOT, in the book. Almost every mystical esoteric text there is.

Hey I have that same edition. I like the more colorful covers though.
