Earth Medicine: A Revival of Sacred Cultures and Religions (Part 2)

By Nancy Oakes

Humanity has crossed over to a new era, a time when human beings are reuniting with their inner power, and breaking the chains from the old paradigms of patriarchal mind control. Coming out of the dark ages again into the light, we are discovering a new respect for the old ways of earth medicine, holistic medicine, and embracing the traditions and cultures of the ancients.

A REVIVAL OF THE GNOSTICS IN THE NEW ERA

The sacred documents of the Gnostics philosophy states that they believed that life (living) is a spiritual practice, not a dogmatic religion or other mind controlling system. Bringing health back into balance was a spiritual practice. Therefore, based on the mindset of the ancient indigenous medicine, they taught that the disconnection of the soul in one form or another causes disease. Disease happens when humans are living an empty life, which is living without meaning or with meaning that is too trivial or too materialistic for the needs of a sacred soul. Each soul was sacred and always connected directly to the spirit realm, without judgment from a one patriarchal god.

Early recordings suggest the Gnostics were for over half a millennium, “the approach to religion for thoughtful minds”, very much influenced by Tantric-style meditation. They also believed as in the ultimate aim of Tantric yoga was to enter the primal realm of Silence, a feminine enfolding the original Creative Word, the Logos, the Goddess Sige (Silence) who dwelt at the beginning of all things, giving birth to Sophia, (Wisdom, or knowledge, the Gnostics Great Mother) both spouse and mother of God. This of course got the attention of the early church authorities, and finally drove the Gnostics, and Mary Magdalene into hiding.
