How Hermeticism Influenced Gnosticism And Neoplatonism - Lecture II by Manly P. Hall

Hermeticism, according to Manly Palmer Hall, profoundly influenced Gnosticism and Neoplatonism. Hermetic texts, like the Corpus Hermeticum, promoted ideas of a transcendent, unknowable God and the importance of inner spiritual awakening, which resonated with Gnostic beliefs in hidden knowledge (gnosis) and the divine spark within humanity.
Neoplatonism adopted Hermetic principles, particularly the hierarchy of existence and the ascent of the soul toward union with the One, blending them with Platonic philosophy to create a comprehensive spiritual framework.
