This new course from PARALLAX ACADEMY's “Rebuilding Spirituality” curriculum - starting March 5th 2023, aims to explore comparative symbolism and examine the differences between eastern and western arcane symbol systems. We will ask ourselves: what is true in magic and mysticism, and what is new-age bullshit? How can we practice symbolic contemplation without self—delusion and fantasy, or falling into various states of 'egregore possession' or ego inflation? What exactly is gnosis, magic, and mysticism and how to distinguish between them? What are the practical uses of symbolic contemplation and work with archetypes? How do we become symbolically literate? We will begin by exploring the so-called 22 "arcanum" of the Tarot card deck from diverse perspectives, such as Valentine Tomberg's Christian Hermeticism, Alister Crowley's Magick, and Alejandro Jodorowsky's psycho-magic. We will then explore what Dion Fortune called the 'yoga of the west' or the Tree of life or Sefirot. We survey some of David Chaim Smith's ideas in his book "The Kabbalistic mirror of Genesis" and his non-dual and "non-emanationist" view of symbolism. Finally, we will look at symbolism from the point of view of Buddhist tantra, my own tradition of practice. There will be lectures and dialogue, readings and meditation. For those who subscribe to the complete package, I will offer one-to-one 'meaning coaching' sessions, which include symbolic exploration, dialogues, and self-inquiry—and even Tarot readings! Please join us for some illuminating and radical fun! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/podcast-c709ee4/message

How is contemplative mysticism like a wild beast that consumes itself whole on the fires of its own life force? Why will we never understand reality if we hold ourselves as separate observers of reality?

In this special video podcast, esoteric cartographer and contemplative mystic David Chaim Smith discusses how his style of contemplative mysticism careens directly into the toxins that obscure phenomena. From the heart of reality the divine nectar can be sipped like a bee draws nectar from a flower from within the most virulent and poisonous klipot (shells of superficiality). The key is devotion to En Sof (The Infinite) which continually overflows through whatever appears ... if we have eyes to see it. When delusion is overcome only En Sof remains, and reality is spontaneously reborn as profound truth, beauty, and goodness. This realization is the true goal of the great work. In this podcast David will explain how one can consume alcohol as an intentional toxin for purification, ironically, and so he discusses (and sips) this topic while answering your Patreon listener questions! And now to help us Uncork the Uncommon, raise a glass of any beverage you prefer, pull up a chair and join me as we welcome back contemplative mystic, David Chaim Smith.► ✅ Check out Dave's incredible website here- https://www.davidchaimsmith.com/✦

David Chaim Smith was born in 1964 in Queens, New York. His early career was as a visual artist throughout the 1980s. In 1990 he began an immersion into the root sources of Alchemy and the Hermetic and Hebrew traditions of the Kabbalah. In 1996 he abandoned visual art for a total dedication to spiritual practice, from which came a unique blend of practical mysticism and creative innovation. This blend coalesced while working with an obscure thirteenth-century text called The Fountain of Wisdom, which he mapped out diagrammatically in notebooks during his ten-year hiatus from visual art. The resulting symbol vocabulary served as the basis for his 2006 return to art, generating the content for several books. He currently lives in the suburbs of New York City with his wife, Rachel.

The 13th century text ‘The Fountain of Wisdom’ is one of the most challenging works of the Kabbalistic tradition. In an upcoming book with the full text translated into English by renowned scholar-translator Dr. Mark Verman, David Chaim Smith (esoteric cartographer and contemplative mystic) presents a passage-by-passage commentary on the 800-year-old text, designed to address the working issues of the spiritual practitioner. The Fountain of Wisdom presents a labyrinth of psycho-aetheric symbols that map out the subtle atmospheres, textures, and resonances discovered through radical contemplative mysticism. The strange and beautiful imagery functions as a set of doorways through which the mind passes, allowing for discoveries that no other Kabbalistic text comes close to offering.(Please note: there are no pre-orders for “The Fountain of Wisdom”.

The system derives from three separate Kabbalistic sources. The first is the post-Renaissance version of Hermetic Qabalah; a syncretic system configured to support alchemical ideas and symbols. The second source is the mystical Chassidut of Rebbe Nachman of Breslov and his unique adaptation of Lurianic Kabbalah. The third source is the thirteenth-century literature of the Iyyun Circle. The Iyyun Circle material is the most important element of all because it provides the overall structure through which the other sources coalesce into a single system."It's always a real pleasure for me to talk with David, and this time was no exception. Of all the interviews we’ve ever done, I feel that this is by far the best. Additionally, of all the books of David’s that I love, his newest, The 32 Keys, may be the best. David’s devotion to contemplative mysticism and his unwavering determination to break through barriers to his practice is exemplary. As he goes deeper in his practice, it is undeniable that his ability to articulate the path, the view, and the methods is only becoming more and more clear and lucid. I highly recommend all of David’s work, but this new book is more practical than any of his others.

Essentially, due to David’s practice over decades, his behavior has radically improved to the point where he doesn’t seem like the same person he was when he began.

Josephine McCarthy and Michael Sheppard of Quareia: A New School of Magic for the 21st Century join us in podcast episode 182. You can find Quareia online at https://www.quareia.com.Josephine McCarthy has appeared twice previously on the podcast to discuss her earlier books on exorcism and magic. She is the author of the Quareia course. Michael Sheppard is the editor and the author of an upcoming book on Egyptian magic.Josephine, Michael, Rudolf, and I have a great conversation about magic, mystery schools, and mostly Quareia, a wonderful new online magic course that is offered for free is undoubtedly a strong contender for best course material available. “Quareia, the new school of magic for the 21st century, is a concept that was born out of conversations between adepts Josephine McCarthy and Frater Acher; two European magicians with solid magical reputations. The course is spread over three sections: Apprentice, Initiate, and Adept. Each section has ten modules, and each module has eight lessons. Each of the three sections is approximately five hundred thousand words: it is the most extensive, in-depth, and intelligent up to date magical course that is currently available worldwide. There are no teachers: the course is designed specifically for lone exploration, experience and study. The success of the Quareia student comes from hard work/personal application, inner contact, and the necessary study and work. It is a very old way of teaching and completely side steps all of the degeneracy that magical schools can become entangled in. Quareia teaches the skills that underpin many different forms of magic. Rather than just teaching a specific magical style, through learning the structural underlying techniques, forms and skills, and their various cultural, magical, and at times religious expressions from different cultures, the Quareia magician will be able to access any form of magic and understand it.”If you’ve heard Josephine in any of her two prior interviews here or read any of her work, you’re already aware of how special she is. The depth and quality of the work that has gone into the creation of Quareia is astounding. If I had to recommend a single resource for learning the art of magic, it would undoubtedly be Quareia. That is a heavy endorsement, but one I feel certain about after having worked with enough schools and systems to have the ability to compare. Quareia provides potential students with an excellent source of knowledge to begin and sustain their magical training. I highly recommend it!If you haven’t already taken a look, the Occult of Personality Membership Section has been redesigned and resurrected as The Chamber of Reflection at https://chamberofreflection.com. There, Josephine, Michael, Rudolf, and I continue the interview to discuss some rather interesting occurrences and lessons learned during the creation of the Quareia course. Join us for that fascinating conversation! On Saturday, July 29th, Ezekiel Bates Lodge and Lvmen Scientiae will host a day of talks on the subject of Alchemy & Transformation! Our presenters include renowned alchemist Brian Cotnoir discussing the famed Emerald Tablet, eastern medicine practitioner and author Craig Williams speaking about the use of plant medicines and bodily health for self-realization, host of the Glitch Bottle podcast Alexander Eth talking about the magical grimoire tradition as an avenue for self-transformation, and yours truly presenting material from David Chaim Smith's upcoming book Deep Principles of Kabbalistic Alchemy. This is a singularly amazing opportunity to hear about many aspects of alchemy and magic in a single day! There will not be another event like this anytime soon, so I encourage you to attend. Tickets are $15.00 per person and available now at https://eb1870.org/alchemy-transformation/.

Josephine McCarthy and Michael Sheppard of Quareia: A New School of Magic for the 21st Century join us in podcast episode 182. You can find Quareia online at https://www.quareia.com. Josephine McCarthy has appeared twice previously on the podcast to discuss her earlier books on exorcism and magic. She is the author of the Quareia course. Michael Sheppard is the editor and the author of an upcoming book on Egyptian magic. Josephine, Michael, Rudolf, and I have a great conversation about magic, mystery schools, and mostly Quareia, a wonderful new online magic course that is offered for free is undoubtedly a strong contender for best course material available. “Quareia, the new school of magic for the 21st century, is a concept that was born out of conversations between adepts Josephine McCarthy and Frater Acher; two European magicians with solid magical reputations. The course is spread over three sections: Apprentice, Initiate, and Adept. Each section has ten modules, and each module has eight lessons. Each of the three sections is approximately five hundred thousand words: it is the most extensive, in-depth, and intelligent up to date magical course that is currently available worldwide. There are no teachers: the course is designed specifically for lone exploration, experience and study. The success of the Quareia student comes from hard work/personal application, inner contact, and the necessary study and work. It is a very old way of teaching and completely side steps all of the degeneracy that magical schools can become entangled in. Quareia teaches the skills that underpin many different forms of magic.

In this special episode of Occult of Personality podcast, artist and author David Chaim Smith returns to the show to discuss his most recent book, Deep Principles of Kabbalistic Alchemy (now available at http://www.davidchaimsmith.com/deep-principles-of-kabbalistic-alchemy).David Chaim Smith is a mystic, Kabbalist, artist, and author. You can find him online at http://www.davidchaimsmith.com. His previously published books include The Kabbalistic Mirror of Genesis, The Sacrificial Universe, The Blazing Dew of Stars, and The Awakening Ground. His most recent book, self-published in 2017, is entitled Deep Principles of Kabbalistic Alchemy. I was fortunate that David asked me to edit the text and have had time to deeply consider the things he's going to address in this unique presentation including a radical mystical approach referred to as the gnosemic view; a concept referred to as the ground, or the ground of all being; alchemical mercury; and the tzimtzum, or contraction, a Kabbalistic creation myth. The ideas espoused in this podcast are radically mystical. I find them incredibly interesting and worthy of attention. I hope you do as well. And I want to express my deep gratitude to David for sharing with us.Deep Principles of Kabbalistic Alchemy is available as of September 9, 2017 at http://www.davidchaimsmith.com/deep-principles-of-kabbalistic-alchemy.
