RE: The Heretics Handbook, By Jonathan Black (Review)
It sucks to have an author that you like so much only to read their second books then to be let down.
I really dig that you're into ancient mystery school teachings... Have you read much into Gnosticism?? I've literally spent the last 20 minutes trying to find this book that had just a profound impact on me as a person... I can fucking find it on google though, but that's because I literally can't remember the name >.<... I remember the picture on the front, but damnnnitt... Was like 12 years ago, almost 13... Sooo yea, time has a way of making you forget shit.
Wellll fuck... Went and tried to find it again, oh well.. If I remember it, I'll send it your way, you might enjoy it.
Digging the new content man!
haha, yeah man I know you want them to continue to stay epic!
Do you remember what exactly the book was about? Maybe I could help you find it
Yoooo I found it!!

This book came at a time of serious transformation in my life... Between this book and The Gnostic bible, my entire idea world was transformed.
Obviously I went much deeper and expanded my knowledge, but there two books REALLLLY sent me off an entire different path in life... One that I'm definitely not upset about.
Nice man, this would be right up my alley too. I actually think Ive seen their other book mentioned there, the Jesus Mysteries , in my local library, and I mightve read it! If not Im definitely picking it up next time Im in there!
I hope this book is on Kindle Unlimited, that would rule man. Ive always wanted to read the Gnostic Bible too, Ive read a bit of the Mary Magdelene gospel i think it was, and some of the Gospel of Thomas I think, are they on it?
Im really interested in this type of stuff too, would love to hear any other recommendations youd have too man
Yea they are there... I love the Gnostic bible because it also gives you a bit of history before each of the books in it. I use to read a lot more than I do now, I really should start reading more... It would probably help my rapping a bit too!
Have you ever heard of vivekananda?? His stuff is amazing..
Oh, also dude, go check out my new song "Breathless 2", it's that none stop multi-syllable flow that you went crazy over last time!
Nice man i think i might just buy that Gnostic Bible soon, I havent heard of vivekananda at all man is he onyoutube?
wil check that song now bro
It was 12 quid for the gnostic bible man, but I figured out a way round it, found a pdf and got an adobe reader app free on the fire tablet too now Im able to read the whole thing free!
I already like the sound of Gnostics taking knowledge from wherever they can find it and not relying on religious officials to mediate at all!
Ill let you know how I get on with it
That's the thing I identified so much with their ideology... Truth is wherever you find it. Shoot, you can find revelations in a movie, song lyrics, etc. There's so much profound wisdom all around us, we just have to search.
