The work of a "sprout" of a gnostic seer with kabbalistic visions would seem to be appropriate for a thread on secret societies.
Constantinian work always seems to be backed up with a footnote, a reference, an article, a book (sometimes in multiples) and occasionally with notes from interviews with people whose names have to be hidden and which are now stuffed in a locked file cabinet drawer somewhere in an underground cavern. It's not that I've never been exposed to some of the topics covered, but there are things I've read which seem -- even years after the publication date -- as though they should be announced from the tops of small buildings with high-powered megaphones.
But then I have to wonder if they aren't sign posts pointing in the wrong direction a la Operation Greif.

"Where is the intersection between the world's deep hunger and your deep gladness?"
