What is the essential gnostic literature aside from the gospel of Thomas?

>>	Anonymous Tue Jul 13 14:58:41 2021 No.18644509 >>18644498 I know Jung is often recommended but I'm pretty sure he believed in gnosticism insofar as he mapped it symbolically onto his model of psychoanalysis, I don't think he actually believed in the actual metaphysics
