? Support TED and join the community on Patreon Author, Bob Peck returns to the mind meld! In this one, we explore the highly suppressed, even persecuted wisdom of the so-called Gnostics. What was their philosophy and metaphysical outlook? Who are the movement's major figures? Why did religious authorities attempt to destroy any trace of their existence? What wisdom do they still have to offer us today? Why was Carl Jung so fascinated by the Basilides of Alexandria (an important gnostic figure)? We riff on all of the above. Bob Peck is the author of Original Sin Is a Lie, which is out now. ? Support TED and join the community on Patreon ? Sub and Review on Apple Podcasts  ?
