These are the two books you need to read to fully grasp Gnostic canon. It's all in there (including later works from the Cathars and proto-Gnostic works like the Gospel of Thomas, although some pages from tbe original manuscripts are missing).
These two books contain some of the most silenced and banned works throughout history. People were killed back in the day for spreading this. You don't even need canonical scripture (although it does provide context, but theres no univdrsally agreed upon canonical Bible among Gnostics except for the Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus which were used by Early Christians and some Gnostics, although no concrete translations of these two exist as standalones in English, at least).
So if you want to understand what we believe, buy these two and add some to your shelf and do some reading.
