"Not only was Gnosis gnostic, but the catholic authors were gnostic, the
neoplatonists too, Reformation was gnostic, Communism was gnostic, Nazism
was gnostic, liberalism, existentialism and psychoanalysis were gnostic too,
modern biology was gnostic, Blake, Yeats, Kafka, Rilke, Proust, Joyce,
Musil, Hesse and Thomas Mann were gnostic. From very authoritative
interpreters of Gnosis, I learned further that science is gnostic and
superstition is gnostic . Hegel is gnostic and Marx is gnostic; Freud is
gnostic and Jung is gnostic; all things and their opposite are equally
gnostic."
