                                                                   The Gnostic Path to Spiritual Reality

                                                Donald H. Wolfraim Ph.D.

In the Gnostic Path to Spiritual Reality the author compares the ancient teachings 
of the Gnostics with the latest findings in paraphysics and parapsychology, which were 
found to support as well as clarify many of the
beliefs held by the early Christians, 
Alchemists, Kaballists and other related sects
that resulted in the development of a 
Gnostic science based on the inherent unity of spiritual and physical reality.
                                                             
For the Gnostics, this unity could be personally experienced by perceptually
integrating  
one's physical and spiritual cognitive faculties, resulting in uniting
inner and outer reality 
into a single experience referred to as gnosis -
a way of knowing that transcends the 
limited physical senses, manifesting as a direct intuitive knowledge of the nature of the 
spiritual world around us, including the imaginal realm and the supernatural.

This book explores some of the deeper mysteries of our existence, such as the real 
nature of consciousness and the self and the modern rediscovery of this ancient Gnostic 
science practiced down through the centuries. Now its secrets have been revealed for 
anyone seeking a practical path to spiritual development and a new vision of the world 
they live in.
