The Treasure of Life is one of the seven treatises of the prophet Mani, written and regarded as part of the major canon of Manichaeism. The title is possibly derived from Christ's parable of the hidden treasure from Matthew 13:44, which is followed by the parable of the pearl in Matthew 13:45–46; incidentally, pearls are a major metaphor used in Mani's teaching. Also, the Syriac title, Simath Hayye, is identical with the name of an uthra (celestial being) in Mandaeism called Simat Hayyi.

  • Le Trésor de la vie est l'un des sept traités du prophète Mani, écrit et considéré comme faisant partie du canon majeur du manichéisme. Le titre est peut-être dérivé de la parabole du Christ du trésor caché de « Matthew 13:44 131 » , qui est suivi de la parabole de la perle dans « Matthew 13:45-46 131 » ; accessoirement, les perles sont une métaphore majeure utilisée dans l'enseignement de Mani. Il jouit d'une grande popularité et est cité par de nombreux auteurs de polémiques anti-manichéennes, dont Hégémonius et Augustin d'Hippone. Le thème principal semble être l'anthropologie de l'homme selon Mani, qui enseigne « quelles parties de l'âme proviennent de la pure lumière, et quelles parties procèdent des vicieuses ténèbres ». Duncan Greenlees affirme que Mani a probablement écrit Le Trésor de la vie alors qu'il voyageait dans le Grand Khorasan. Le trésor de la vie est au cœur d'un événement miraculeux entourant le prophète Mani : lorsque Mar Ammo fut arrêté par un esprit de frontière dans le pays de Sogdia, le disciple jeûna et pria pendant deux jours. Peut-être à travers une vision, Mani a senti le problème de son disciple et est apparu au poste de guet à la frontière du Grand Khorasan . Le prophète a ensuite enseigné à Mar Ammo un passage du Trésor de la vie à réciter. Cela apaisa l'esprit de la frontière, qui vit que Mar Ammo était différente des hommes de même religion de son pays (probablement des bouddhistes ) et permit alors au disciple de reprendre son travail missionnaire dans la région.

  • The Treasure of Life is one of the seven treatises of the prophet Mani, written and regarded as part of the major canon of Manichaeism. The title is possibly derived from Christ's parable of the hidden treasure from Matthew 13:44, which is followed by the parable of the pearl in Matthew 13:45–46; incidentally, pearls are a major metaphor used in Mani's teaching. Also, the Syriac title, Simath Hayye, is identical with the name of an uthra (celestial being) in Mandaeism called Simat Hayyi. It enjoyed popularity and was referred to by many anti-Manichaean polemic writers, including Hegemonius and Augustine of Hippo. The main theme appears to be Mani's anthropology of man, teaching “what parts of the Soul came from the pure Light, and what parts proceed from the vicious Darkness”. Duncan Greenlees states that Mani probably wrote The Treasure of Life while traveling through Greater Khorasan. The Treasure of Life is central to one miraculous event surrounding the prophet Mani: when Mar Ammo was halted by a frontier spirit in the land of Sogdia, the disciple fasted and prayed for two days. Perhaps through a vision, Mani sensed his disciple's trouble and appeared at the watch-post on the frontier of Greater Khorasan. The prophet then taught Mar Ammo a passage from The Treasure of Life to recite. This appeased the spirit of the frontier, who saw that Mar Ammo was different from the similarly religious men of her land (probably Buddhists) and then allowed the disciple to resume his missionary work in the region.
