In the Anurag Sagar, India's most Gnostic scripture, souls are depicted as being held captive inside the Palace of Kal, the lord of time and illusion (called "the Demiurge" by the Gnostics). The Satguru does battle with Kal to free the souls. The genuine Living Teacher, the Sant Satguru, guides his or her students through this internal struggle with the mind or ego (the agent of Kal in the matrix of mind), this labyrinth of self-sabotaging, limited belief-systems of the negative power (Kal Mat: the teachings of Kal), so that the initiates may experience Divine Love, Light and Sound within and follow the Path back to God (Dayal, the Merciful One), the Ocean of Love. Today we explore the following, a outline or playlist of what we're covering during this satsang podcast: mystic poems of Sant Dadu Dayal of Rajasthan: The Results of True Love, and, The Vision of the Beloved; a saying from the Gnostic Gospel of Judas which sounds a bit like a Rumi poem; definitions of the term "Demiurge" from Platonism, Gnostic Christianity, Judaism, and the Sant Tradition of India; definitions of the eastern term for the Demiurge: the Kal Niranjan: a false god, negative power, lord of time and illusion as described in footnotes by Russell Perkins in the English edition of a key Sant Mat spiritual classic, India's most Gnostic scripture: The Anurag Sagar (The Ocean of Love, about the teachings of Kabir and Sant Dharam Das); Kal Mat vs. Dayal Mat, Illusion vs. Truth, by Shiv Dayal Singh, also known as Swami Ji Maharaj of Agra from his collection of mystic verses called the Sar Bachan Radhasoami Poetry; also a description of Swami Ji's meditation room-within-a-room and on how we too can create our own meditation space at home; several mystic terms are defined based on the Glossary of Sant Mat and additional footnotes from, The Anurag Sagar; a satsang discourses by Hazur Baba Sawan Singh titled, What's Really Going On Here -- During This Life the Disciple or Devotee Contends With Mind as They Attempt to Merge into the Positive Power; a satsang discourse by Baba Ram Singh titled, If You Really Resolve To Have A Desire To Go Within And Transform To God Almighty, That Is Possible In This Human Form; and I conclude with mystic poetry verses from: Sant Ramdasa of Maharashtra, Maharshi Mehi Paramhans from his Padavali (Hymn 135); a reading from the Sukhmani of Guru Arjan Dev, also from Guru Ram Das (both from the Adi Granth, Sikh Scriptures).

Cub Kuker Supernatural Podcast EP451 I read a lot of ancient scriptures in my life, and some have even bordered on the paranormal. However, none of them have taken me as deep down the rabbit hole as The Gospel of Thomas! The Gospel of Thomas: A Brief History: The Gospel of Thomas is an early Christian text that is part of a collection of writings known as the Nag Hammadi library. This library was discovered in 1945 near Nag Hammadi, Egypt, and contains a number of Gnostic texts. The Gospel of Thomas itself is believed to have been composed in the early to mid-2nd century CE, making it one of the oldest Christian texts known. The Gospel of Thomas is a collection of 114 sayings attributed to Jesus, many of which are distinct from those found in the canonical Gospels of the New Testament. It is often associated with Gnostic Christianity due to its emphasis on secret knowledge and the mystical aspects of Jesus' teachings. The Gospel of Thomas was excluded from the Bible for several reasons. Early Christian leaders and councils were concerned with establishing orthodoxy and unity within the Church. Texts like the Gospel of Thomas, which emphasized esoteric and mystical knowledge, were seen as diverging from the orthodox teachings that the early Church sought to promote. Additionally, the Gospel of Thomas was not widely accepted or circulated among early Christian communities, contributing to its exclusion from the canonical Bible. The discovery of the Nag Hammadi texts in the 20th century provided a deeper understanding of early Christian diversity and the various perspectives that existed about Jesus' teachings. Readings from: The Gospel of Thomas: Modern Interpretation by Jacob Kuker (Cub) available only on my research blog as a part of my CKS Member Pass! NOTE: For entertainment only.

In this episode of "Way of the Hermit," David and Gene dive down the rabbit hole, into the world of Gnosticism and its connection to Freemasonry. They explore how Gnostic teachings, once considered heretical, were driven underground and lay buried for centuries until their rediscovery in the 20th century. They discuss the core principles of Gnosticism, emphasizing its focus on direct inner knowledge of the divine (gnosis) rather than adherence to dogma or external rules.The episode traces the historical suppression of Gnostic ideas by early Christian literalists and examines key figures in Gnostic thought, including Simon Magus, Philo of Alexandria, and G.R.S. Mead. David and Gene highlight the significance of the Nag Hammadi texts discovered in 1945, which provided unprecedented insights into Gnostic Christianity. They also explore the symbolic interpretations of religious and Masonic stories, arguing that these allegories contain deeper truths about human consciousness and spiritual awakening.The discussion draws intriguing parallels between Gnostic concepts and Masonic symbolism, suggesting that Freemasonry is perhaps a form of Gnosticism. They propose that the three degrees of the Masonic Blue Lodge, as well as the Masonic quest for the “Lost Word”, the three names of God and three temples in the Scottish Rite, correspond to the three stages of Gnostic awakening.Deep Dive:Nag Hammadi's Gnostic RevelationsChapters:01:15 Introduction01:36 Gnosticism04:02 Masonry is Gnosticism06:33 The Key to the Mysteries09:56 Church of the Antichrist13:19 Simon Magus15:49 Philo of Alexandria18:05 G.R.S.

This week on Black Hoodie Alchemy, we have a podcast-swaparoo with my homie Joe Rupe, host of Lighting the Void, and we're both celebrating the fresh release of my audiobook Dive Manual: Empirical Investigations of Mysticism. With the paperback released in 2020, Joe has lended his narration and editing talents to help me bring this book into audio form, and since he took the time to read the entire thing -- including all the outtakes and re-reads -- he now has quite a bit to say about it all. I admittedly have a hard time explaining this book briefly, but it is data-driven research about my own investigations into mysticism, magick, and the religious experience. I look heavily into scientific concepts like Jungian psychoanalysis, sleep paralysis, dream analysis, phantom limb syndrome, memetics, and chaos theory. In addition, I also investigate the mechanics and history of things like alchemy, astrology, tarot, numerology, reincarnation, the Trees of Life & Death, Hermeticism, Gnostic Christianity, Taoism, Buddhism, Kabbalah, Paganism, and much more. Lastly, it has at times a semi-fictional framework that includes me as the narrator guiding you as the reader through the proverbial diving experience. There's more I could say, but I will leave it at that for now! It's a winding journey about insanity, neuroticism, catharsis, unexplainable phenomena, and ineffable transcendence. Don't forget -- if you dig Dive Manual, check out my second work Hunt Manual: 21st Century Demonology & Forteana. Joe has plans to bring this to audiobook form soon as well!

These days you can't shake a stick without running into some version of Gnostic Christianity. Why is that? Gnosticism is absolutely wild and psychedelic, that plays a part. But did counterculture collectively decide one day that Gnosticism was pretty groovy? Well, apart from fragments of texts, writings about Gnosticism from the Catholic church's perspective (heresy!), and underground currents of mystic knowledge, mainstream culture didn't really know anything about what the Gnostics believed until the discovery of the Nag Hammadi Codices, a jar of 13 papyrus scrolls containing 52 books from Gnosticism, Hermeticism, and other mystic traditions. The collection was discovered in Egypt, 1946 by a pair of probable graverobbers, and wouldn't be fully translated and published until the 1970s. This week we're going to look at some core texts and definitely get some stuff wrong as we explore Gnosticism and the Nag Hammadi Codices.

Cub Kuker Supernatural Podcast EP351 Today I want to talk about what we have all been missing when it comes to interpreting, reading, and practicing scripture and lives. Unfortunately, we all have a tendency to look for a dogmatic “this is this” and “that is that” doctrine when the actual power of scripture may be hidden within the ancient Gnostic scriptures, and the esoteric view they hold within. The Gnostic Scriptures "The Hymn of the Pearl" and "The Acts of Thomas," are part of a collection of ancient religious texts that fall under the umbrella of Gnosticism. Gnosticism is a diverse set of religious and spiritual beliefs that emerged in the early centuries of the Common Era. It encompasses a variety of sects and teachings, characterized by the belief in special knowledge (gnosis) that leads to salvation. The Hymn of the Pearl - Context: The Hymn of the Pearl is a poetic and symbolic narrative found within the Acts of Thomas, an apocryphal work associated with Gnostic Christianity. - Symbolism: The hymn tells the story of a prince who descends into the material world, forgets his royal origin, and becomes entangled in earthly affairs. Eventually, he remembers his true identity and undertakes a journey to reclaim a valuable pearl, which symbolizes spiritual knowledge or enlightenment. - Meaning: The narrative is often interpreted allegorically, representing the soul's journey into the material realm, its forgetfulness of its divine origin, and the quest for self-discovery and reunification with the divine. - Gnostic Influence: The text reflects Gnostic themes, emphasizing the importance of knowledge and spiritual insight. It also includes elements of asceticism and an emphasis on the divine within. It's important to note that Gnostic texts were often rejected by mainstream Christian groups, and many Gnostic sects faced persecution. The Nag Hammadi library, discovered in Egypt in 1945, contained a significant number of Gnostic texts, contributing to modern scholars' understanding of Gnostic beliefs and practices. These texts provide valuable insights into the diverse religious landscape of the early centuries of the Common Era and the various theological perspectives that existed within the broader Christian tradition.

On Thursday May 21st 2020 the Hermetic Hour, with host Poke Runyon will present a discussion on the Twisted History of Christianity. The general theme of this presentation is how the distortion of its original principles perverted its mission for the following two thousand years of world history. We will examine how the Christian religion, which was supposed to bring peace, love and comfort to the people who accepted it, brought instead War, hatred, persecution and despair. We will begin by recalling what Christianity was supposed to be and who Jesus's Father in Heaven really was. We will remember how his wife, Mary Magdalene and later the bishop Valentinian and his follower Marcus tried to carry on the original teachings. We will recall how the Roman Church created its Inquisition to stamp out the resurgence of original Gnostic Christianity in Southern France where Mary Magdalene and Marcus had preached, and how the Roman Church launched a genocidal crusade against these innocent Cathars killing millions. The Inquisition went on to murder thousand of heretics and witches while the Church bishops exploited the poor and offered salvation for money. Finally Northern European Christians revolted in a movement called the Reformation, but the Protestants failed to correct the original mistake the Roman Church had made in accepting Yahweh as the father of Jesus and incorporating the corrupted Old Testament as part of the Christian Bible. By the 18th century all forms of Christianity were challenged by the rise of a new atheistic religion that offered the same promise: peace, love and comfort. It emerged from the horror of the French Revolution. You can call it socialism, humanism, or communism – but what ever name it goes under, it is actually a Christian Heresy. It is Christian altruism without salvation. So, If you want to want to know how the early Christians got it wrong and how we can fix it, tune in and we'll reveal a real New Testament.

This marks part 1 of a 5-part series where I will read aloud chapters from Manly P. Hall's “The Wisdom of the Knowing Ones: Gnosticism, the Key to Esoteric Christianity,” a collection of inter-related essays concerning the "esoteric keys" to the early movement of Christianity. In this episode, we'll be reading the introduction of the book, titled "What Do The Knowers Know?" Together, we'll explore the importance of the 1945 dicovery of the Nag Hammadi Codices, a collection of early Christian Gnostic texts, which were originally written in the 2nd and 4th centuries AD. What you'll learn: What is Gnosticism? What were the main Gnostic beliefs and practices? What does Gnosticism have to do with esoteric Christianity? What is the significance of the Nag Hammadi library and what sacred texts were found there?? Is Jesus in the Nag Hammadi writings? ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Manly Palmer Hall was a Canadian author, lecturer, astrologer, mystic, and Freemason. Over his 70-year career he gave thousands of lectures and published over 150 volumes of written work. Early in his life, he became drawn to mysticism, esoteric philosophies, and their underlying principles. While visiting London in the early 1930s, Hall acquired from an auction agent at Sotheby's, a substantial collection of rare books and manuscripts about alchemy and esotericism. Owing to economic conditions resulting from the Great Depression, he acquired the collection for an insanely low price due to the economic circumstances of the time.SELECTED READING: “The Wisdom of the Knowing Ones: Gnosticism, the Key to Esoteric Christianity.” (Pages 1-22)YOUR FAVORITE MYSTICAL BEDTIME STORY PODCAST: Can't sleep?

Marty Leeds returns to Alfacast, and he always brings it. Marty is a genuine seeker of truth, a brilliant teacher of the mysteries and a preacher of the heart. In our last interview with Marty we traversed through a diversity of subject matter from Gnostic Christianity, to the mathematics, symbolism, astrology, and mysticism encoded within the Bible. Marty's seminal works, Pi - The Great Work, Pi & The English Language, and The Peacock's Tales - The Alchemical Writings of Claudia Pavonis were inspiring explorations of sacred number, geometry and the mathematics that rule our Universe, but ultimately as a study of oneself. On this episode we'll go deep into his latest work Lord Jesus Christ, a textbook to the decoded truths in the Holy Bible. We'll contrast Hermeticism with Gnosticism and further discuss banned books of the Bible, why the bible is not a history book, the bible/Kabbalah overlap and the absolute relevance to current global events.

Are prophesies real? Are these indeed the 'end times'? We brought on our friend, Marty Leeds to give his take on this topic so many are focused on these days. In Marty Leeds' own words: "I am a genuine seeker of truth. I am not afraid to discuss any issues or talk about any subject. I am not an expert on anything, nor do I declare myself any sort of guru, prophet or spiritual guide. I certainly am no saint." "I often explain my role as a teacher of the mysteries and a preacher of the heart. I wish to share with you the things I have learned along the way, the light I have gained, the wrongs I have made, and how I see the world." "The mathematical, symbolic and linguistic work that I teach has been rooted in my own personal journey to God." "I teach about many different schools of thought, and I cover many different subjects and topics, but ultimately, my main focus is that of sharing and teaching what I have come to learn about Gnostic Christianity, the mathematics, symbolism, astrology, and sheer mysticism that is encoded within the Holy Bible, and moreover, how those encodings withhold a sacred science of apotheosis."

Today on HeimdallR's Home we spoke of the modern cult of Anti-Life that is continued via anti child agenda, anti family agenda, and the way the culture has come to vilify both the human form and the continuing of our line by having children, the push for nonexistence in Gnostic Christianity and the "Holy Family" of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph and how these figures are actually anti-life. We spoke of the beauty of our children, the joys of family, the importance of living dangerously and being willing to get your hands dirty, and how we are wild at heart and should not live in a sanitized environment as we do now. This was one of our best check it out.

(Elaine Pagels reference) * Michelle's plant medicine experience of purging many dark past lives and the powerful healing of welcoming those parts back in with compassion. * Why it's important to be specific in what and how you want to manifest something. * What were some of the blessings of 2020? * Empowerment through resilience. * What are the 7 Pillars for being an optimized human? * Beauty in the ashes - “everything is happening for your good” * What's antifragility and how can it help?

Russell Sturgess has been described as a thought leader in Western Mindfulness. This is based on the idea of an approach to mindfulness that had roots in the west, as opposed to the more commonly known eastern practice that emerged from Buddhism. In 2007, he lived in southern Italy for a year while he researched and wrote his first book Metanoia, which presented the thesis that a western approach to mindfulness emerged during the middle ages in northern Italy. This approach was inspired by Gnostic-Christianity which re-emerged throughout Europe with the heretical Cathar. This western approach to mindfulness was inspired by the teachings from the Sermon of the Mount and in particular the Beatitudes. In this podcast, we also discuss and emphasize Russel's wonderful new book, The Spiritual Roots of the Tarot, which was just released by Inner Traditions.

For this episode of The Alchemical Mind, I depart a bit from our recent discussion of Gnostic Christianity to dive into one of my favorite quotes, and one I use all the time, from Sufi mystic Ibn Ata Allah al-Iskandari - "the real is not veiled from you, rather it is you who are veiled from seeing it." Through this quote and the passage from which it is derived, I analyse the mystical experience, understanding how to acquire truth, and what ultimately prevents us from "getting it" - ourselves.

On Thursday May 21st 2020 the Hermetic Hour, with host Poke Runyon will present a discussion on the Twisted History of Christianity. The general theme of this presentation is how the distortion of its original principles perverted its mission for the following two thousand years of world history. We will examine how the Christian religion, which was supposed to bring peace, love and comfort to the people who accepted it, brought instead War, hatred, persecution and despair. We will begin by recalling what Christianity was supposed to be and who Jesus's Father in Heaven really was. We will remember how his wife, Mary Magdalene and later the bishop Valentinian and his follower Marcus tried to carry on the original teachings. We will recall how the Roman Church created its Inquisition to stamp out the resurgence of original Gnostic Christianity in Southern France where Mary Magdalene and Marcus had preached, and how the Roman Church launched a genocidal crusade against these innocent Cathars killing millions. The Inquisition went on to murder thousand of heretics and witches while the Church bishops exploited the poor and offered salvation for money. Finally Northern European Christians revolted in a movement called the Reformation, but the Protestants failed to correct the original mistake the Roman Church had made in accepting Yahweh as the father of Jesus and incorporating the corrupted Old Testament as part of the Christian Bible. By the 18th century all forms of Christianity were challenged by the rise of a new atheistic religion that offered the same promise: peace, love and comfort. It emerged from the horror of the French Revolution. You can call it socialism, humanism, or communism – but what ever name it goes under, it is actually a Christian Heresy. It is Christian altruism without salvation. So, If you want to want to know how the early Christians got it wrong and how we can fix it, tune in and we'll reveal a real New Testament.

Get excited for round 2 with Rev. Brother Mark Donato on episode 127 (part 2). Gnosticism is the teaching based on Gnosis, the knowledge of transcendence arrived at by way of interior, intuitive means. Although Gnosticism thus rests on personal religious experience, it is a mistake to assume all such experience results in Gnostic recognitions. It is nearer the truth to say that Gnosticism expresses a specific religious experience, an experience that does not lend itself to the language of theology or philosophy, but which is instead closely affinitized to, and expresses itself through, the medium of myth. Indeed, one finds that most Gnostic scriptures take the forms of myths. The term “myth” should not here be taken to mean “stories that are not true”, but rather, that the truths embodied in these myths are of a different order from the dogmas of theology or the statements of philosophy.--Excerpt from “The Gnostic Worldview: A Brief Summary of Gnosticism” by +Dr. Stephan Hoeller *Rev. Donato is the prior (administrator and mentor) of the Oblates (lay monks) of the Order of Saint John, the monastic side of the Apostolic Johannite Church. He left the Episcopal Church he grew up in for Buddhism, first Tibetan and later Thai Theravada, for 20 years. Although Buddhism still informs much of Mark’s theology and practice, he moved toward his Christian roots and found Gnosticism. For the past 8 years, Mark has been studying and practicing Gnostic Christianity and was ordained as prior of religious orders in 2016.

He was ordained a priest and then a bishop in the Liberal Catholic Rite in 1994. He is a professionally certified Achologist focusing on transformational Life Coaching and Neuro-linguistic Programming.

Having explored esoteric and Gnostic Christianity, Zen and Nichiren Buddhism, as well as Theosophy and Revival Druidry. Fred is a member of the Order of Bards, Ovates, and Druids, also known as OBOD, where he finds a connection to the sacred through the power of myth and story. He is an organizer of Silent Heron Seed Group, an OBOD affiliated contemplative Druidry group exploring the connection to the natural world through meditation and ritual. In the episode, we talked about several things, including: His elevator speech? How he integrates the spirituality found in the Order of Bards, Ovates, and Druids into his understanding of Christianity. And he talks about what is the Order of Bards, Ovates, and Druids. He talks about his acceptance within Druidry while also being a Christian. His greatest challenge as a bishop within the Independent Sacramental Movement. And finally, we talk about his greatest blessing within ministry. Convergent Streams: The Premier ISM Magazine. This episode is sponsored in part by Convergent Streams, why?

Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy Welcome to Day 1101 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me. I am Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Who Determined the Canon of Scripture? – Wisdom Wednesday Wisdom – the final frontier to true knowledge. Welcome to Wisdom-Trek! Where our mission is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Hello, my friend, I am Guthrie Chamberlain, your captain on our journey to increase wisdom and create a living legacy. Thank you for joining us today as we explore wisdom on our 2nd millennium of podcasts. This is https://wisdom-trek.com/day-1101/ (Day 1101) of our trek, and it is Wisdom Wednesday. Creating a Biblical worldview is important to have a proper perspective on today's current events. To establish a Biblical worldview, you must also have a proper understanding of God's Word. Especially in our western cultures, we do not fully understand the Scriptures from the mindset and culture of the authors. In order to help us all have a better understanding of some of the more obscure passages in God's Word, we are investing Wisdom Wednesday reviewing a series of essays from one of today's most prominent Hebrew scholars Dr. Micheal S. Heiser. He has compiled these essays into a book titled “I Dare You Not to Bore Me With the Bible.” Today is the last essay in Dr. Heiser's book, and next week we will begin a new series. As we explore this final essay today, we will explore information about… Who Determined The Canon of Scripture? Dan Brown's best-selling conspiratorial thriller The Da Vinci Code seems like ancient history now. At its peak of popularity, the novel set records both for sales and for irritating scholars with its view that Jesus and the 12 apostles held to Gnostic heresies. The book's bizarre plot focuses on Jesus' bloodline extending through a child born by Mary Magdalene. Within that narrative, Brown asserts that the New Testament canon was determined by the Roman Emperor Constantine, who was not friendly to Gnostic Christianity, at a time much later (fourth-century AD) than any New Testament scholar would endorse. Unfortunately, this myth has since taken on a life of its own. The notion that Constantine decided which books should constitute the New Testament springs from the ancient Life of Constantine by Eusebius of Caesarea (ad 263-339). Eusebius reports that in a letter written in AD 331, the emperor instructed him to …order fifty' copies of the sacred Scriptures, the provision and use of which you know to be most needful for the instruction of the Church, to be written on prepared parchment in a legible manner, and in a convenient, portable form, by professional transcribers thoroughly practiced in their art. This same Constantine had earlier convened the Council of Nicea (AD 325), famous for its focus on the full deity of Christ against Arianism, which taught that Jesus was a created being. Brown carelessly conflated the two events in The Da Vinci Code to put forth the preposterous idea that Constantine had decided at Nicea which books belonged in the New Testament. But can we be sure this didn’t happen? If not, what exactly did Constantine demand in this letter? We can be certain that the Council of Nicea did not determine the books of the New Testament at Constantine's request. The date of Eusebius correspondence tells us that Nicea did not consider the issue of the canon. Today, anyone can read the 20 decisions rendered at Nicea (coincidentally called “canons”). None of them concerns the New Testament Scriptures. In addition, accounts of what happened at Nicea were described by several early church historians and theologians who lived at the time of the event or shortly thereafter. Their testimony is unanimous in opposition to the idea that Constantine determined the books of the New Testament. So what did Constantine want?...
Ryan McGranahan chooses his own religion! Ryan is a storyteller from Los Angeles and a member of Ecclesia Gnostica, a Gnostic Christian church here in Los Angeles, and he came on the show to explain Gnostic Christianity to me. We talk about Jesus in the Gnostic tradition, the inversion of Christian tropes, little-g gnosticism, the divine feminine, magic, rituals, cosmological differences, the importance of belief, prayer, symbolism, and how it all comes back to the Matrix.
“It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane.” ― Philip K. Dick, VALIS VALIS is the first book in Philip K. Dick's incomparable final trio of novels (the others being The Divine Invasion and The Transmigration of Timothy Archer). This disorienting and bleakly funny work is about a schizophrenic hero named Horselover Fat; the hidden mysteries of Gnostic Christianity; and reality as revealed through a pink laser. VALIS is a theological detective story, in which God is both a missing person and the perpetrator of the ultimate crime. Originally published: 1981 Author: Philip K.

His journeys – from the remote South Pacific to the capitals of Europe to the deserts of Arizona and the canyons of New York City – were punctuated by three dramatic “Near Death Experiences.” Interspersed through a life of professional successes and personal setbacks, and his own “dark nights of the soul,” the three NDEs, and the subsequent need for answers, led him to years of study and meditation. Elements of Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Gnostic Christianity, physics, philosophy and more, have contributed to his unique transpersonal realizations about life and death. All of which inspired the calling to write his direct, humorous transformational prose, and to joyfully pass along all the lessons he’s learned – obviously the hard way. He has gathered them together in his book, How to Survive Life (and Death): A Guide for Happiness in This World and Beyond.Website: http://robertkopecky.blogspot.com

It is with great honor but also regret we are able to present Vincent's last interview before he passed away the weekend after this recording...Vincent (OM, FWMS, OE) was an Author, esoteric historian and researcher. He co-wrote six books, and has been featured in, or consulted on, 13 television documentaries on subjects ranging from Atlantis to the Holy Grail but primarily focused on Nostradamus. A self-proclaimed “anthropologist of the strange,”Rev. Bridges was an initiate of five major traditions: Buddhism, Islam, Gnostic Christianity, Wicca and Western Ceremonial Magick. He was also a pioneer in the field of psycho-acoustic therapy for early childhood trauma. Vincent also organized and lead tours to sacred sites in Southern France and the Czech Republic, and had led tours in India, Tibet and Egypt. He was also the consultant to an alchemical museum in Prague where he lived. Highly recommended to the show we comb through Vincent's vast knowledge on the occult world and looked forward to getting him back on the show for more. RIP Vincent.

In addition to natural mind enhancing supplements, McKenna spoke on the subjects of virtual reality (which he saw as a way to artistically communicate the experience of psychedelics), 'techno-paganism,' artificial intelligence, evolution, extraterrestrials, ancestor-worship (or, as he put it, contacting 'dead people'), and aesthetic theory (art/visual experience as 'information,' hence the significance of hallucinatory visions experienced under the influence of psychedelics). He advised the taking of psychedelics in relatively-to-extremely large doses (asserting that those who had only sampled psychedelics in small doses failed to access their full potential), particularly alone, in a dark space, without music or other forms of external stimulation. Philosophically and religiously, he expressed admiration for Marshall McLuhan, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Gnostic Christianity, and James Joyce (calling Finnegans Wake the best literary representation of the psychedelic experience). He remained opposed to all forms of organized religion or guru-based forms of spiritual awakening. He believed DMT was the apotheosis of the psychedelic experience and spoke of the 'jeweled, self-dribbling basketballs' or 'self-transforming machine elves' that one encounters in that state. Although he avoided giving his allegiance to any one interpretation (part of his rejection of both monotheism and monogamy), he was open to the idea of psychedelics as being 'trans-dimensional travel, literally,' enabling an individual to encounter what could be aliens, ghosts/ancestors, or spirits of the earth.
