Reading this verse on the linked page I think that this could have come straight out of the Bible or might have been written by a Christian monk or nun.

Most educated Christians would mark it off as primarily gnostic in origin. The Bible talks less about intellectual "knowledge" of God and more about bowing to the Sovereign Lord of Creation in humility and brokenness.
