Birth is suffering -because we are born with the Consciousness asleep-, decrepitude is suffering -for the same reason-, death is suffering, to be united to what we do not love is suffering, not to have what we desire is suffering. The permanent exigency of desire is what produces the return of the Souls, all of this accompanied by an enthusiastic delivery, an attraction for life, in a form or another, that is to say, by the sensual pleasure, the existence or annihilation.

Gnosticism is sometimes anathematized, in spite of being a mystical-philosophical system which tries to explain the reason for the suffering of the human being.

The Gnostic thought updates the thesis of the existence of the PSYCHIC AGGREGATES which is very wellknown in Tibet. Psychic aggregates are entities within the psychic anatomy of the earthly man and this thesis has been taught during many centuries by other PRE-CHRISTIAN, CHRISTIAN and POST-CHRISTIAN civilizations.
