Overview
Monistic Gnosticism believes in one reality: Spirit. It teaches that creation is flesh, and flesh is ignorance of spiritual knowledge. This ignorance is the essence of evil. Dualist Gnosticism believes in two realities: Spirit and Creation. Both are good. Gnostics hold that spiritual reality was withheld from human beings at the beginning of time. But the Gods provide ways to acquire this knowledge. The Monistic Gods provide a plan for Enlightenment. The Dualistic Gods (Creator Gods) provide the plans of Salvation and Spiritualization. Human beings who believe in these plans become eligible for Supernatural Spiritual Knowledge.
