Just what is a ?soul, ? exactly? Where did the idea come from? How do we experience our souls? Two ancient Gnostic texts? The Exegesis on the Soul and The Hymn of the Pearl, both presented here in all-new translations?hold important clues to the development of the soul as a concept and reveal inspiring ways your own soul can remember and return to its unique, divine purpose. The Exegesis on the Soul depicts the soul as a feminine figure who has fallen into the corrupted world and must find her way back to the Divine. It is a hero's journey that will inspire your own spiritual pilgrimage. The Hymn of the Pearl is an allegorical story about a prince sent to retrieve a precious pearl but who soon?like many of us?forgets his purpose and falls asleep. It is a stirring tale of the importance of remembering your soul's identity and calling?and knowing that only you can fulfill your unique destiny. Accessible facing-page commentary explains the text for you.
