- Sarkic
Sarkic, from the Greek "σάρξ", flesh (or hylic, from the Greek "ύλη", stuff, or matter) in
gnosticism describes the lowest level of human nature — the fleshly, instinctive level. This isn't the notion of body as opposed to thought; rather the sarkic level is said to be the lowest level of thought.
