Pleroma

Fullness: in the New Testament, the fullness of God in Christ; in Gnostic myth, the divine realm of aeons.

Christian mysticism

Plērōma means fullness. Paul’s letters speak of the fullness of the Godhead dwelling bodily in Christ. In Valentinian Gnosticism it is the realm of divine emanations from which the soul fell and to which it returns.
