Explore the mysterious world of the Mandaeans in "The Lost Gnostics: The Mandeans." Discover the ancient secrets and teachings of one of the last surviving Gnostic sects through Andrew Phillip Smith's approachable work, "John the Baptist and the Last Gnostics: The Secret History of the Mandeans."
In this intriguing episode of Beyond the Book, we look at the Mandeans, a group renowned for its resilience through the ages and its distinctive spiritual practices. This episode unveils their deep connection to John the Baptist, whom they revere not just as a prophet but as their final great teacher. We uncover the Mandeans' ritualistic baptisms, their unique perspective on biblical figures, and their complex relationship with both the material and spiritual worlds. The discussion also highlights the challenges they face today, especially in light of recent geopolitical events. Join us as we explore the rich history, beliefs, and the ongoing spiritual journey of the Mandaeans.
