Product Description

PRAISE FOR GNOSIS
"Controversial, provocative, even profoundly 'irritating' to some....Gardiner eruditely challenges us all with this refreshing study...from the Garden of Eden into more modern times." —Dr. Karen Ralls, medieval historian and author of THE TEMPLARS AND THE GRAIL

"Gnosis is a refreshing creation of true spiritual teaching—as well as being a damn good read. Gardiner possesses that rare ability to weave history, mythology and spiritual tradition into writing that is both understandable and enjoyable.

"Gnosis will fascinate readers with its complex insights into spirituality." —DARK WISDOM magazine

"In this remarkable and thought provoking book, Gardiner has literally undressed the sacred mystical language of our ancestors and reveals one of the most profound Biblical concepts to be exposed in recent times." —Ernest Scott, Author of THE PEOPLE OF THE SECRET

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem—reputed to be the source of the most esoteric knowledge in human history—has fascinated scholars, seekers and dreamers for centuries. For generations, scholars and researchers have tried in vain to discover the fabled Temple of Solomon, only to be confronted by one problem after another.

All the problems raised by these disparate and often desperate people have now been fully answered and can be revealed to the world. Through his own involvement in secret societies and his tenacious spirit, Philip Gardiner has unearthed the secrets of the Temple.

From the Queen of Sheba and the arcane secrets of the Christian Gnostics to the Muslim Sufi and Hindu Avatars, Gnosis weaves a tale that is both profound and precise. Gardiner declares that the truth of Solomon’s Temple has been known all along within the realm of esoteric understanding. Only one question remains: Is the world ready for the truth?

Find the true secret of the Knights Templar and the mysteries of the ancients. Find the truth for yourself in Gnosis.

Gardiner will be appearing on a variety of TV specials on the Discovery Channel and other programs based on Gnosis and his other works.
