The Royal Line of Christ the Logos: A Jungian View of the Roots and Meaning of the Orthodox/Gnostic Christian Mystery

This book shows how the West lost its way when it began to regard the Christian mystery as an outdated superstition, rather than as a concrete, explicit expression of the psychological process of individuation. Robert explains that the Gnostics' teachings sprang from direct experience, and that "these sects, largely Christian in esoteric ways, existed side-by-side with the orthodox Christians. Their teachings were based upon direct inner experience. Like Jung, the Gnostics had no need to merely believe, they knew."
