Tom Cheetham can't get Jeremy Vaeni's voice out of his head, an inner critic, telling him that what he's teaching about Henry Corbin and company is irrelevant because the spiritual trump card is the only card to play--and that is letting go of everything. Is his inner Vaeni right? What does outer Jeremy Vaeni have to say about it? Thus begins this week's continuing conversation.
In this episode, Joe interviews Shauheen Etminan, Ph.D.: co-founder of VCENNA, a drug discovery and development company, and Magi Ancestral Supplements, which sells nootropics inspired by ancient Eastern traditions. He discusses his journey into the world of plant extraction, how he first discovered compounds like Haoma and Harmaline, and why he decided to bring Iranian tradition to the psychedelic renaissance. He explores the similarities between psychedelics and experiences found in mystical traditions, and how that historical context can inform modern psychedelic practice. He sees this exemplified most with dream recollection, attending to the emotions found within dreams, and the concept of wakeful dreaming, where one can access unconscious insights consciously, through the liminal (or hypnagogic) state between dreaming and wakefulness. He discusses: Zoroastrianism and how the teachings of Zarathustra on understanding morality have inspired hi Syrian Rue in Iranian culture, and how it compares to the Banisteriopsis Caapi vine: Is it actually stronger than ayahuasca Henry Corbin's practice of embodied imagination and Jung's concept of active imaginatio Other less-discussed compounds he's interested in, like Ephedra and Saffron and more!

For episode 10 of Pop Apocalypse, we welcome the musician, composer, and producer Trey Spruance. We discuss Trey's early musical and occult explorations and how reading the philosopher Henry Corbin changed the course of his life. Trey then takes us through the esoteric dimensions of Secret Chiefs 3 and how albums like Book M and Book of Horizons are filled with correspondences to Kabbalah, astrology, Hermetic magic, and Pythagorean musicology. Along the way, we touch on Trey's work with Jim Zorn and Kronos Quartet, his conversion to Eastern Orthodox Christianity, and the afterlives of Saint Cyprian the Mage.
Our chat with Tom Cheetham starts to cook.... Are religious states reducible to psychedelic trips? Do people experience death of self on psychedelics? What is the difference between death of self and being torn apart and pieced back together as a shaman? Is Jeremy Vaeni in agreement with Henry Corbin about Truth with a capital T and beings living from Truth's 1st-person point of view? Whew! All that and more in about half an hour!
In the third installment of this unique longform dialogue, Tom Cheetham takes us on a deep dive into the imaginal with Henry Corbin, Jeffrey Kripal, gnostism, angels, and … Is Jeremy Vaeni Moses? Once that's answered, we circle back to Tom's iboga experiences in South America as touched upon last episode.

Tom Cheetham is the author of five books on the imagination in religion, psychology and the arts, and one book of poetry. He is largely recognized as the go-to scholar on the life and work of famed French philosopher and scholar of Islamic philosophy, Henry Corbin. He is a Fellow of the Temenos Academy in London, teaches online, and lectures regularly in Europe and the Americas. And now, he is here to engage with us through Our Undoing Radio for what will undoubtedly be a blockbuster of a season.

Dr. Tom Cheetham is a naturalist, poet, and author who has spent the last few decades of his life engrossed in the work of Henry Corbin, who inspired a century of studies of the unconscious mind. Corbin's aim was to understand the line that cut across the mystic traditions of the world, in the hopes of finding something that was the universal ground of being. To that end, he searched for answers in the work of everyone from Continental philosophers, to the medieval gnostics, to the Persian mystics and honed in on something he called the “imaginal realm,” inhabited by angels who guide their human charges towards a life of meaning and profundity.

Philosopher, Scientist, Author and mystic, Dr. Tom Cheetham enters the mind meld. Video episode
Tonight, my special guest is Barry Strohm returning to the show to discuss how he channeled famous people in history and what they revealed. Get his book. Throughout history, individuals have planned events that have harmed others and some of these actions have become conspiracy theories and mysteries. Through spirit board communications with the other side, explore the details of 26 of the world's most famous cases. Learn what President John Kennedy has to say about his own assassination and murder. Consider the words of General George Custer as he tells what happened at the Battle of the Little Big Horn—and who killed him. Find out about the murder of Abraham Lincoln and trace the strange events surrounding John Wilkes Booth. Discover secrets of Billy the Kid, Butch Cassidy, General George Patton, manipulation of the weather, the alien conspiracy, and much more. As you will soon see, the spirits on the other side know all and are willing to talk about it. MEXICAN SPIRITUALISM Beyond Death: Transition and the Afterlife Dr. Roger J. Woolger ‘He who dies before he dies, does not die when he dies'. Abraham of Santa Clara. ‘Zen has no other secrets than seriously thinking about birth and death' Takeda Shingen ‘We are not dealing here with irreality. The mundus imaginalis is a world of autonomous forms and images...It is a perfectly real world preserving all the richness and diversity of the sensible world but in a spiritual state'. Henry Corbin By way of introduction I should say that I am a psychotherapist trained in Jungian psychoanalysis and various other modalities and that my current practice uses what is called ‘regression' to early childhood, past life, inter-life and other transpersonal or ‘spiritual' experiences. (In other contexts - see below - the word ‘regression' can equally refer to what shamans call ‘journeying') But I also hold degrees in the comparative phenomenology of religion, a subject that greatly illuminates the kind of areas that we are here today calling ‘beyond death'. Our starting point today has been the, by now, quite extensive documentation of so-called Near Death Experience (NDE); you have heard the detailed reports discussed by Dr. Fenwick's and Dr. Powell's reflections on similar experiences. It will already seem apparent that the scientific paradigm that seeks fully to explain such phenomena in materialistic terms is stretched beyond its limits. Not long ago, I saw a tape of a major British television program where a woman suffered a clinical NDE during an operation and reported, while ‘out of her body' seeing an instrument in the operating room she could not possibly have seen while in her body and alive. Interesting and provocative as the discussion was, it was entirely limited to interviewing medical staff; no informed authorities on parapsychology (except a materialist sceptic), spiritualism, religious phenomena or metaphysics, specialists in thanatology, or experts from religious traditions were interviewed. Later I was told this is a policy decision of the television company! It is like a political discussion where only one party is invited to participate. What I want to show is that there is a vast amount of information about the phenomena of death, transition and ‘other worlds' available to us that is much more sophisticated that most people realize, not just the widely known studies of Kenneth Ring and Raymond Moody on actual NDEs but also detailed cross-cultural comparisons of how different cultures experience and envision the afterlife, reports from shamans of ‘journeys' to the spirit realms or realms of the dead, elaborate accounts of the soul's port-mortem encounters, and movements from the Tibetan Buddhist and Indian traditions, as well as from my own field of past life regression, where thousands of accounts of death transition phenomena have been recorded.

Send us a Text Message.What ARE the "Perilous Realms," the "Unseen Lands' that Tolkien, Goethe, Coleridge, Wordsworth, C.S. Lewis and Henri Corbin have introduced to Western civilisation over the last century?What is the difference between wooly-headed daydreaming and actively employed imagination? And why do scientists and authors such as Iain McGilchrist say things such as "fantasy is one thing but imagination is the only chance we have to reach reality. It is not a matter of putting fancy dress versions of the world in front of the world. It is clearing all that away so that for the first time we can see reality for what it is."This bonus episode begins to introduce material that will be important for understanding Chapters 23 and 24 of the Fat Monk when they appear.

However, as a friend once said, if only one person benefits from your post, then it was worthwhile making.The Mithāl World, ‘Alam al-Mithāl in Arabic, is the intermediate world - between the soul/spiritual realm and the material/causal world.It is very refined compared to this world - it does not consist of matter and yet is dimensional.Ontologically, it is higher - more real - than our world.There is a pre-established harmony between this world and that world.It is usual to consider the material world we inhabit as the real one. We tend to conceive of a ‘spiritual' world in rather abstract, ethereal terms. But according to the Scottish physicists, Balfour Stewart and P.G Tait, “The very term ‘material world' is misnomer. The world is a spiritual world merely employing matter for its manifestation.”The French scholar, Henry Corbin, wrote extensively about the Intermediate (or Similitudinary) World. You can read his summary here: https://www.amiscorbin.com/bibliographie/mundus-imaginalis-or-the-imaginary-and-the-imaginal/He called it the Mundus Imaginalis - but pointed out that this term does not imply it is merely ‘imaginary'.It is also called the ‘Alam al-Ghayb - the Unseen World - the world outside our perception.Rumi speaks of this in this passage from his Masnavi:غیب را ابری و آبی دیگرستآسمان و آفتابی دیگرستناید آن الا که بر خاصان پدیدباقیان فی لبس من خSHOW NOTES:Xiaoyao Xingzhe, the self-styled carefree pilgrim, has lived and worked all over the world, having crossed the Gobi in a decrepit jeep, lived with a solitary monk in the mountains of Korea, dined with the family of the last emperor of China, and helped police with their enquiries in Amarillo, Texas.FAN MAIL is. a new feature now available to leave feedback on episodes, love or hate them.

ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
What is Islamic Esotericism, and how does it relate to Western Esotericism? Thanks to Liana Saif's work, we delve into Islamic esotericism within the broader context of global esoteric traditions, critically assessing the field's traditional focus on Western esotericism. We scrutinize the foundational role of scholars like Mircea Eliade and Henry Corbin in shaping Western-centric esoteric narratives. The episode addresses key questions: - How has Western-centric scholarship influenced the study of Islamic esotericism? - What are the challenges and implications of integrating Islamic esoteric traditions into a global esoteric framework? - How do cultural, religious, and historical factors intersect in the practice of esotericism across societies? Through the insights of Wouter Hanegraaff and Kennet Granholm, the episode urges a reevaluation of esoteric studies to embrace the richness of traditions that transcend the East-West dichotomy. It raises important issues related to cultural exchange, identity, and the aftermath of colonialism in shaping esoteric practices. The work of Naṣr Ḥāmid Abū Zayd is highlighted, emphasizing philosophical inquiry in the interpretation of sacred texts within Islamic mys CONNECT & SUPPORT

Il est un auteur prolifique, qui compte à son actif plus de cinquante livres et plus de cinq cents articles : si l'Islam et le soufisme sont au cœur de son œuvre, il traite aussi plus généralement de philosophie, de religion, de spiritualité, de science, d'art, d'architecture, de littérature, d'écologie et de dialogues inter-culturel et inter-religieux. Citons quelques ouvrages traduits en français : Islam, perspectives et réalités [« Ideals and Realities of Islam »], Buchet/Chastel, 1991 ; réédition : Tasnîm, 2019 ; Sciences et savoir en islam [« Science and Civilization in Islam »], Sindbad, 1995 ; réédition : Tasnîm, 2023 ; La religion et l'ordre de la nature [« Religion and the Order of Nature »], Entrelacs, 2004. ------------------------------------------------------ En ce mois de novembre 2023, Conscience Soufie a le plaisir de dédier son cycle « Hommage » au philosophe et grand spécialiste de l'Islam persan, Henry Corbin, dont nous célébrons cette année 2023 le 120e anniversaire de sa naissance. Henry Corbin (1903-1978), philosophe, germaniste, iranologue, arabisant, étudiera avec acharnement les textes des écoles philosophiques de l'Iran du 12e au 19e siècle.

Résumé : Son travail sur le monde imaginal. En Islam, l'imagination créatrice est valorisée à l'extrême : la puissance imaginative est une faculté purement spirituelle à jamais inséparable de l'âme.

Paul Levy, author of "Undreaming Wetiko: Breaking the Spell of the Nightmare Mind-Virus," joins us in a profound conversation that delves into the depths of the human psyche and the insidious mind-virus known as "wetiko." A concept deeply rooted in Native American thought, wetiko represents a collective psychosis that is wreaking havoc on our world. Yet, as Levy passionately explains, within this very madness lies the key to our healing. In this enlightening episode, Levy explores the intricate connections between wetiko and ancestral trauma, revealing how the wounded healer/shaman archetype can be a catalyst for both individual and collective healing. We journey into the heart of multigenerational pain, understanding how it propagates through families and how recognizing the wounded healer within us can guide us through the dark underworld of the unconscious. Levy introduces us to the inner guide—a daemon/angel that resides within us, acting as an ally in our encounters with the daemonic energy of wetiko. We discuss the cultivation of "symbolic awareness," interpreting life events as symbols, akin to dreams, and how this awareness can transmute the poison of wetiko into medicine for the soul. Drawing inspiration from the works of C.G. Jung, Rudolf Steiner, Henry Corbin, Wilhelm Reich, and Nicolas Berdyaev, Levy's insights offer a transformative perspective on the current global crisis. He emphasizes that the ultimate antidote to wetiko is to connect with the light of our true nature and embrace our authentic selves. Join us in this compelling conversation that unravels the mysteries of wetiko and offers a path towards healing, self-discovery, and a deeper understanding of the human condition. Don't miss out on this opportunity to transform wetiko into its own antidote and embark on a journey towards wholeness and awakening.

Paul Levy discusses his latest book Undreaming Wetiko: Breaking the Spell of the Nightmare Mind-Virus. The concept of "wetiko" in Native American culture refers to a mental virus that explains the destructive behavior and evil happening globally. Paul Levy suggests that the solution to combat this mind-virus and heal ourselves and the world is found within wetiko itself. Levy explores how experiencing triggering events, getting hurt, or suffering can provide insight into the workings of wetiko. This understanding can then transform our difficulties into moments of awakening. He uncovers how unaddressed ancestral trauma can be the root cause of wetiko and how it gets carried through families. Levy also sheds light on the wounded healer/shaman archetype, which is currently prevalent in humanity's collective subconscious. Recognizing this archetype can aid us as we navigate the descent into the unconscious and the limbo between our past and future worlds. We talk about Daemons vs. angels Escaping the matrix Blind spots in our unconscious Non-local - no 3D time The dangers of organized religion How your genius was turned against you The family curse Child abuse Quantum Physics and Spirituality Techno-virus and Wetiko - Artificial Intelligence Owning our creativity The inner disease of the soul Drawing on the work of C. G. Jung, Rudolf Steiner, Henry Corbin, Wilhelm Reich, and Nicolas Berdyaev, the author introduces the inner guide—a daemon/angel that lives within us as an ally in our encounters with the daemonic energy of wetiko. He explores how to cultivate “symbolic awareness” (interpreting events in our lives symbolically—like a dream) as a path to creating meaning, which alchemically transmutes the poison of wetiko into medicine for healing the psyche. www.awakeninthedream.com

Podcast de l'émission de France Culture L'autre scène ou les vivants et les dieux du 17 mai 1976. Henry Corbin (1903-1978), orientaliste et philosophe, disciple d'Etienne Gilson et de Louis Massignon, à qui il succéda dans la chaire d'Étude de l'Islam de l'École Pratique des Hautes Etudes de la Sorbonne, il fut aussi l'un des piliers fondamentaux – avec C.G. Jung et M. Eliade, entre autres – du Cercle Eranos de 1949 à 1977, directeur du Département d'Iranologie de l'Institut Franco-Iranien de Téhéran de 1946 à 1970, professeur durant plus de trente ans à l'Université de Téhéran et membre fondateur de l'Université Saint-Jean de Jérusalem. Sohrawardi (1155-1191) est le Shaykh al-ishrāq, « le shaykh de l'illumination », ou encore « le maître de la sagesse orientale ». Jeune penseur génial qui mourut en martyr de sa cause à la fin du XIIe siècle, Sohrawardi est l'un des plus grands mystiques de l'Islam iranien. Les textes traduit par Henry Corbin prouvent sa volonté délibérée de ressusciter la philosophie de la lumière proposée par les sages de l'ancienne Perse, non pas en historien de la philosophie, mais en tant que philosophe adhérent de toutes les puissances de son âme à la vision des mondes qu'il se sent la mission de transmettre.

Awakening from the Meaning Crisis https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncd6q9uIEdw&list=PLND1JCRq8Vuh3f0P5qjrSdb5eC1ZfZwWJ&ab_channel=JohnVervaeke "The mind is between you and the world in a fundamental way. And that you shouldn't think of your mind just as between your brain and the world. But the way in which your brain is in your body is fundamentally relevant to the way in which your brain connects to the world. And you have to understand your mind as the intersection of those two connectivities, how you are connected to your body and how you're connected to the world. And that's where the mind actually is." John Vervaeke, PhD believes that the mind is not just between the brain and the world, but also between the brain and the body. He says that the mind is a dynamic, self-organizing process that is constantly adapting to its environment. He also believes that the separation of cognition and emotion is a false dichotomy, and that both are deeply interwoven. Finally, he believes that the mind is perpetually susceptible to self-deception, and that wisdom is the ability to overcome this self-deception. In this episode, you will learn the following: 1. The mind is not just in the brain – it is also between the brain and the body, and between the individual and the world. 2. Emotions and cognition are deeply intertwined, and neither can be understood in isolation from the other. 3. Most of our knowing is non-propositional – it is knowing how to do something, rather than knowing that something is true. 4. A rapid fire summary of some of the greatest philosophical minds of the last 2500 years including Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Buddha, Jesus Christ, St. Augustine, Plotinus, Henry Corbin, Carl Jung, and more.

On this episode of Conversations in Process, Jay is joined by the Cobb Institute's operations assistant, Jared Morningstar. Jared is a writer and educator with academic interests in philosophy of religion, Islamic studies, comparative religion, metamodern spirituality, and interfaith dialogue whose work in these areas seeks to offer robust responses to issues of inter-religious conflict, contemporary nihilism, and the "meaning crisis" among other things. He has BAs in Religion and Scandinavian Studies from Gustavus Adolphus College, where he graduated in the spring of 2018. In this wide-ranging conversation, Jay and Jared discuss the issues of navigating religion in modernity and some intellectual and philosophical resources that could be helpful to this end. Jared begins by sharing his personal spiritual journey, growing up in a culturally Christian context which he rejected in his adolescence before discovering traditional religion for the first time through an encounter with Buddhism. This transitions into a discussion of religious pluralism in modernity, which Jared claims is distinct from the pluralism one could find in pre-modern times, so developing a sophisticated response to this phenomenon is critical. To this end, Jared discusses the problems of religious exclusivism and exceptionalism, both of which he argues present serious challenges to living peacefully in the landscape of contemporary pluralism. Jared claims that various forms of “traditionalist” religious identity have weak philosophical bases and can lead to various dysfunctions. Here he distinguishes between the “Traditionalist school”—a 20th century school of philosophy of religion with representatives such as Frithjof Schuon and Seyyed Hossein Nasr—who have a robust understanding of religious pluralism, and a more general “traditionalist” attitude that has been gaining steam particular amongst young Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and Muslims which is often very intolerant of other faiths and modernity more generally. In response to this precarious situation, Jared shares two philosophies which he has found personally helpful in this context. The first is the Japanese Buddhist existentialist philosophy of the Kyoto School. These Buddhist thinkers gracefully weave together Western religious and philosophic sources with traditional Zen ideas to arrive at deep answers to life's perennial questions and to the unique problems of our age. The second is the Sufi-inflected imaginal philosophy of Henry Corbin. A 20th century orientalist-philosopher, Corbin draws on the insights of Sufi and Shi'i mystics, putting these Muslim sages into conversation with contemporary phenomenology, existentialism, and depth psychology. Like the Kyoto School, Cobin's cross-cultural thought offers robust perspectives for navigating the variety of religious forms of our day. The conversation closes with Jay drawing connections between these two perspectives and the process philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead. While there are a number of points where these thinkers may be synthesized and integrated into a cohesive hole, Jay stresses that these philosophies can also stand on their own and need not be reconciled for their intellectual contributions to have profound impact.

This episode is a re-publication of a seminar organised by the research project the End of Law, at CTR. Dr Mårten Björk will take the lead, and introduces the inaugural episode of the End of law podcast, and a lecture by professor Jeff Lo ve, with the title: "Between Kant and Hegel: Alexandre Kojève and the End of Law" It was recorded on 1 June 2021 as part of the Law, Theology and Culture seminar in Lund. Alexandre Kojève is best known for the influential lectures he gave on Hegel to an enthralled audience of French intellectuals including Raymond Aron, Henry Corbin, Jacques Lacan, and Maurice Merleau-Ponty. Aside from these lectures, published in 1947 as Introduction to the Reading of Hegel, Kojéve published relatively little before his death in 1968. Yet, he left over 26 boxes of unpublished material on a variety of topics, from quantum physics and the continuum hypothesis to a major treatise on law called Outline of a Phenomenology of Right (Esquisse d'une phénoménologie du droit). Kojève wrote this treatise (586 pages in the French book edition) in 1943 while living in Vichy France. He expounds in it a comprehensive theory of justice and the universal homogeneous state that promises to usher in the end of history and perhaps of law itself. In my talk, I shall examine some of the central legal features of Kojève's universal and homogeneous state and consider whether Kojève actually affirms that history can be brought to an end through a final legal regime or not. In this respect, Kojève reprises his end of history thesis from the Hegel lectures as well as putting it in question, opposing Hegelian finality to what Kojeve terms Kantian "skepticism" about final ends. Jeff Love is Research Professor of German and Russian at Clemson University. He is the author of The Black Circle: A Life of Alexandre Kojève (Columbia University Press, 2018), Tolstoy: A Guide for the Perplexed (Continuum, 2008), and The Overcoming of History in War and Peace (Brill, 2004). He has also published a translation of Alexandre Kojève's Atheism (Columbia University Press, 2018), an annotated translation (with Johannes Schmidt) of F.W. J. Schelling's Philosophical Investigations into the Essence of Human Freedom (State University of New York Press, 2006), and recently a translation of António Lobo Antunes's novel Until Stones Become Lighter Than Water (Yale University Press, 2019). ---------------------------------------------- Religion and Theology is produced by Joel Kuhlin for the Center for Theology and Religious Studies.

Although perhaps not as well-known as his colleagues and friends Thomas Moore and James Hillman, Robert Sardello has nonetheless been a deeply influential presence for both of those thinkers and the countless students and clients he's attended to over the past 40+ years as a teacher, psychotherapist, author and spiritual guide.Robert Sardello, Ph.D, is Co-founder and Co-director of The School of Spiritual Psychology, which began in 1992. He is author of many books on the power of soul and our relationship with the earth, and has been a practicing psychotherapist for over 40 years.His main emphasis has been to develop theoretical and practical approaches to perceiving and being in right relation with the Soul of the World, showing that humans are pulled from the time stream from the future rather than pushed from the past, and developing the interior consciousness of the heart.He has created new, yet very practical cultural visions in areas such as the meaning of books, the essence of service, the virtues, money, business, giving, healing, religion, living through the heart, and how to be in right relationship with and in the earth.Robert's online school: http://www.heartfulsoul.comName drops: Carl Jung, Rudolf Steiner, James Hillman, Henry Corbin, Thomas Moore•••I'd love to hear what you think, so please feel free to make a comment if you're listening to this on YouTube, leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, or send me an email at hello@brianjames.caIf you enjoy this podcast, you might be interested in another one I've recently started called Soul Studies with Brian James, where I share readings from some of my favourite authors in the realm of spirituality and depth psychology.

Shamanic Journey is a Self-Guided Expedition into the Imaginal World of the Psyche. In this podcast, we go over Shamanic Journey basics, and provide a description of the Imaginal World, the world of images, accessible through Shamanic Journeying, and C.G. Jung's Active Imagination. We cover the following topics:- What does make Shamanic Journey different than Meditation? - Basic Elements of a Shamanic Journey (boundary, intention, and sonic driver)- Shamanic Journey and the Imaginal World of the Psyche (Mundus Imaginalis) - Practicing A Brief Shamanic Drum Journey Demo The term imaginal world does not mean an imaginary world. It rather a world that “exists in images”. The term Imaginal was first coined by Henry Corbin, famous French Theologian. Corbin introduced the concept of Mundus Imaginalis, or the Imaginal World. The Mundus Imaginalis can also be thought as the World of the Soul, a world that is empirically observed through the organ of Soul or Heart, through Imagination or Imaginative Consciousness. All mystical and altered states of consciousness access this imaginal world to various degrees.

Alone with the Alone by Ibn' Arabi - Translated by Henry Corbin plus selected verses of Ibn' Arabi. 'Abū 'Abdullāh Muḥammad ibn was a Sufi mystic, poet, and philosopher born in Murcia, Spain on the 17th of Ramaḍān (26 July 1165 AD). He was one of the great mystics of all time.

In his new book Esoteric Islam in Modern French Thought: Massignon, Corbin, Jambet (Bloomsbury Academic Press, 2021) Ziad Elmarsafy maps the intellectual and personal genealogies of three French specialists of Islam, Louis Massignon, Henry Corbin, and Christian Jambet and the ways in which esoteric Islam, be it Sufism, Shi‘ism and/or Islamic philosophy informed their academic projects and worldviews. The first chapter situates Massignon’s travels (i.e., Iraq) and his studies of Arabic and Sufism (especially of Mansur al-Hallaj), which defined his conceptualizations and embodiments of hospitality and desire. Massignon’s student Corbin would also turn to the traditions of Sufism, Shi‘a thought, and metaphysics to grapple with notions of vision or theophany in his intellectual work. Finally, Christian Jambet, a student of Corbin, and a Maoist atheist would turn to the revolutionary history of the Alamut and Nizari Ismailis, as well as Mulla Sadra, to think through ideas of political change, eschatology, and resurrection. Throughout these rich and detailed chapters, one finds a textured discussion of the diverse ways in which esoteric Islam defined the intellectual lives and projects of twentieth and twenty-first century France. The book will be of interest to those who think and write about esoteric Islam, Islam in the west, Islamic and French philosophy, Shi ‘ism, and Sufism.

Light, within nature, has always drawn us in, held our attention, and revealed marvels through its variegated displays. Coleridge said that the “eye is to light like lover to the beloved.” Light and human attention share a very deep relationship. And with our attention increasingly drawn towards a luminous focal point that is manufactured, it becomes more and more difficult to experience something essential that exists in the meeting point between us and the light of nature around us. This meeting point has been envisioned as a place of revelation, of germination, of ideation, and as the home of the imaginal itself. At this meeting point, the architectures and harmonies of nature reveal themselves to us and we see right into our own relationship with ourselves, each other, and the world — and so it informs our perceptions of truth, ecology, art, beauty, harmony, and justice. All in that little place where the light of our attention meets the light of the natural world. Support the show (http://www.patreon.com/theemeraldpodcast)
Judy Young’s relatives, Henry Corbin and Simon Garnett, were murdered by white mobs in Oxford, Ohio more than a century ago. In searching for their names at the National Memorial for Peace and Justice, which honors Black victims of lynching, Young confronts hard truths about our county’s history that cause her to reexamine her own work toward racial justice and health equity.

Jeffrey Mishlove references the Illuminationist school of Sufi philosophy, as expounded by the twelfth century Persian philosopher and mystic, Suhrawardi, and popularized in recent times by the French philosopher, Henry Corbin. The concept of the “imaginal” as very distinct from “imagination” is also implicit in Carl G. Jung’s explication of psychological dynamics, as imparted to … Continue reading "InPresence 0185: The Real, The Imaginal, and the Imaginary"
A Very Square Peg: The Strange and Remarkable Life the Polymath Robert Eisler
Warning: Economics. In this episode, we begin with Eisler's testimony before the skeptical Senators of the Committee on Banking and Currency in Washington, D.C. on January 20, 1934, in which he proposed that the nation adopt a dual currency system to control inflation and end the Great Depression. I (a non-economist) talk about what this means with noted economist Miles Kimball, who has recently brought renewed attention to Eisler's plan in his own work. We also learn about Eisler's theory of who actually wrote what we call the Gospel of John, talk with Steven Wasserstrom about Eisler's brief involvement with Carl Jung and the Eranos Conference, and interpret a “dream poem” that Eisler recorded at his mother's house in 1936. Guests: Guests: Miles Kimball (The University of Colorado-Boulder), Steven Wasserstrom (Reed College).

In which a young Henry Corbin emigrates to Virginia and builds a strong family that profoundly touches Virginia's story is recounted.
En el siglo XX cambió, en muchos lugares, la noción de lo que es la espiritualidad en diversos sentidos. Uno de estos cambios radicó en la recreación de una idea de aparente libertad en la que ya no es necesario tener un maestro o pertenecer a un grupo o religión, sino que uno mismo puede realizar la vía espiritual en solitario. ¿Es esto cierto, o es una idea errónea que puede perjudicarnos? En el podcast de esta semana hablaremos desde nuestro punto de vista y de qué dicen las tradiciones espirituales al respecto. En la sección de libros de esta semana recomendaremos un interesante libro sobre la imaginación creadora, los mundos imaginales y la filosofía de Henry Corbin. En la sección de simbología, esta vez haremos una breve definición sobre el icono en la tradición de la ortodoxia cristiana. *** Nos gustaría dedicar el mayor tiempo posible a este podcast y a todos los contenidos que realizamos en las diferentes plataformas en las que publicamos (vídeos, libros, cursos gratuitos...).

Here in the United States, the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown and social distancing mandate has entered its second month. The economic and humanitarian impact of the virus is unfathomable. States are slowly beginning the process of “re-opening” as protests occur across the country asserting the right to reopen and that all stay at home, shelter in place, social isolation measures taken by the states have gone too far. Even the president, tweeted last week for protesters in key states with governors who have been vocal about their opposition to the White House’s response to the pandemic to “liberate” those states. The death toll in the United States from the COVID-19 pandemic now exceeds 52,000. The social isolation and shelter in place actions taken by most of us, the alarming news of the protesters across the country and our government’s ongoing misinformation and misleading responses, the continued media coverage of the blaming for equipment, testing, and overall critical analysis of the response taken by our government, it’s enough to make one worry, feel oppressed and lose hope if we let it. The COVID-19 pandemic indeed calls each and everyone of us to liberation -- liberation from our dependence on all forms of news media and expecting commercial news media to provide rational truth for us to follow and base our own understanding upon, liberation from placing all our trust in a capitalistic fueled technocracy to meet the needs of all citizens when in such a government some citizens are always deemed collateral damage or canaries in a coal mine when facing such tragedies as this pandemic, liberation from the religious extremes which expect us to throw our support behind leaders who only nominally support their views and whose actions continue to to harm humanity and the cosmos, liberation from the fear aroused mob mentality stoked by the leaders of the technocracy and commercial media outlets — each with their own agendas serving their own needs and not the common good of all citizens. Lastly, and most importantly, liberation from modern rational thought that drives actions from the mind and focuses consciousness solely on that which can be scientifically proven leaving no room for expanding heart consciousness. The desperate need of this time, of what we can learn from this COVID-19 era and carry with us as life post COVID-19 begins to unfold, is to be liberated from this head centric consciousness that has proven so harmful to ourselves, to some of our brothers and sisters, to humanity and the earth and grow in heart centric consciousness that opens us up to the awareness of how we are all one, of how the suffering of one impacts the all, the hoarding of one impacts the all, the selfishness of one, impacts the all, the misunderstanding that my actions only impact me and no one else to the awareness of how my actions reverberate and have impact on others as well as theirs on me. This liberation then is a liberation from the darkness and deceptions of the self centeredness of empire and the technocracy it controls that keeps us bound to finding the enemy, the other, those not like “us” to a liberation in the Light of living from the heart, living out of love and compassion, living in hope as we recognize and acknowledge the importance and value of each other. We are never truly alone, even when we think we are in total control and definitely when we are down and think we can go no further and our efforts are useless in changing the dynamic around us. The world, the news media, the technocracy manipulated by corporate profits and influence wants us to think we are alone and that we cannot make a difference. They want us to think that some people in our society are collateral, are pawns to be sacrificed as we step lightly into reopening our economy because the economy is more important to their bottom line than the humanitarian impact of the social isolation guidelines implemented to save lives. We are never alone. We do have a voice. We have a purpose. Each and every one of us carry within us the spark of the Divine and each and every one of us has a guardian angel to guide us in our journey. Paul Levy wonderfully summarizes Henry Corbin’s teachings on this when he describes Corbin’s teachings as “we are not only battling “along with” the Angel against the darker forces that obscure the light of the world from shining, but are at the same time battling to ultimately re-claim and unite with our Angel, our true and perfect nature.” I thought today’s imaginal prayer exercise would be one that nurtures our understanding, awareness and hopefully our experience of this angel and help to liberate us from the forces in the world, especially during this COVID-19 pandemic, which would seek to keep us oppressed to mob mentality driven by the fear mongering of the technocracy which wants us to continue to be distanced from our true and perfect nature that uniting with our Angel helps us to shine, reflect and achieve.

Last week I had the honor of being interviewed on Dr. Joshua Black, Phd and Shawn Ram’s Grief Dreams podcast. Dr. Black and Shawn really seam to be living out their passion helping so many heal from their grieving through providing a platform to discuss the dreams people have of loved one’s and beloved pet’s that have died. These two young Canadians and many of the guests that they have on their podcast, through their grief journey have stumbled upon the secret of living out one’s passion, of living out one’s vocation — divine calling — in allowing their grief journey to transform their lives by helping others in their journey. On their podcast, I had a chance discuss my own grief journey and grief dreams, a little bit about relics and their veneration in the catholic tradition, this podcast Spei Lumina and a little bit about Henry Corbin’s work regarding the Imaginal Mundi and how it has influenced my own attempts in this podcast of providing a praxis for laying out the basics of imaginal prayer putting it to work in helping me and others transform our lives by reflecting Divine light and hope throughout the cosmos. It always encourages me when I learn about and experience first hand young people like Dr. Black and Shawn Ram whose souls are on fire and burning with that zeal that comes when you are actively pursuing and living out your passion, your vocation, your Divine calling. Vocation comes from the Latin word vocare or “to call” and it refers to God’s call for each and every one of us, not just for those called to ministry or religious life, but for all of creation. Dr. Black’s research on grief dreams and his work with Shawn on the podcast and the lives they touch are indeed a great reflection of that wondrous process that occurs in the imaginal realm where, as Henri Corbin describes, “the Active Imagination is Creative Imagination and exploration of the subtle realm requires participation between the human and divine and is at once discovery and creation.” Henri Corbin, in his work Alone with the Alone: Creative Imagination in the Sufism of Ibn ‘Arabi, describes prayer as “the highest form, the supreme act of the Creative Imagination. For prayer is not a request for something; it is the expression of a mode of being, a means of existing and causing to exist… The organ of Prayer is the heart, the psychospiritual organ, with it’s concentration of energy, it’s himma. Prayer is a “creator” of vision.” Inspired by Dr. Black and Shawn Ram and so many others who are not merely living by the ways and means society programs us, manipulates us to live, in pursuit of material gain only, in a reactionary or rote fashion, but who live out their passion and meaning in life and in so doing reflect a greater spark of the Divine, of hope in the world, I thought an imaginal prayer exercise using quotes from Hebrew and Christian scripture and from the Sufi mystic Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi, regarding wisdom, the soul, and passion would inflame passion and purpose and hope and meaning in each of us growing in our practice of imaginal prayer.
Persian culture and Zoroastrianism are main but often-ignored foundations of Western Culture. Also overlooked are the profound Gnostic ideas in the primordial teachings of Zarathustra. Persian Gnosticism permeated religious history for thousands of years across Eurasia, manifesting as a threat to orthodoxy with such movements as Manichaeism, Zurvanism, Mazdakism, and Sufism. We explore this heretical stream, as well as the rich tradition of Persian magic and folklore — culminating with author Sadegh Hedayat, whose work parallels that of Philip K. Dick, Frans Kafka, Henry Corbin, and other modern masters of imaginal Gnostic thinking. Astral Guest – Jason Reza Jorjani, author of Novel Folklore. This is a partial show for nonmembers.

Last week, I tuned into CBS Morning News and the lead story was about active shooter training at an elementary school in Florida. The reporter was in the classroom of 4th grade students when the school was having an active shooter drill. The viewers got to witness first hand as the principal came over the intercom and stated “we are pretending that there is an active shooter in the school.” Pretending? That didn’t seem like the best choice of words. Then as the drill instructions continued the 9 - 10 year old children quickly, as CBS news reports “sprang into action, barricading the door to their classroom, lining up along a wall out of sight from the door and arming themselves with whatever items they could grab, including pencils, scissors and water bottles.” After the drill was complete, when the reporter asked if they were scared during the drill, almost every hand went up. These drills have become a normal part of life for many students in the United States. Realizing that this is a “normal part of life” for school aged children and witnessing their robotic spring to action under the guise of making them safer even though the majority still admitted to being scared, spoke volumes to me about how our young children are influenced from the earliest of ages to live and act out of fear. I realized too, that schools are no longer bastions of safety and protection that they once were thought to be. This week in the news we heard of the explosives mailed to twelve leading Democrats and other officials and leaders who have been critics of President Trump. Thankgfully, the individual thought to be behind the bombs has just been taken into custody and no one was hurt but could have been. It is startling that someone was so manipulated by the rhetoric of political leaders, by their own bigotry and prejudice as to react in the most negative and potentially destructive ways as to take the time to plan, purchase the materials, make explosives and send them to those whom they disagree with, whom they see as the “other”, the “enemy”, the “problem” because certain leaders have always cast their critics in that light. It is precisely because of reactions like this and the potential for more people to be so manipulated as to desire harm and destruction of those who disagree with them, who they’ve been told are the “other” that Spei Lumina came into being. The goal of this podcast and of imaginal prayer is to take the negative effects of media and news, those effects that only stoke reactions and respond with meditation, prayer, imaginal prayer imaging Divine Light in the darkness of all that rhetoric. A practice done to illuminate in our mind that True Self the Divine has called us to be. The better self that we are. Or, as Henry Corbin described in his cosmology, “our angel out ahead” whom we will be reunited with someday and who leads us to our highest, illuminated, self. In his book The Way Back to Paradise: Restoring the Balance Between Magic and Reason, the philosopher Joseph M. Felser, PH. D., discusses doppelgängers and how the universe sometimes works in such a synchronistic way as to give us a glimpse of our doppelgänger — not just the common understanding of the“double of a living person” but the fuller American Heritage Dictionary definition of “a ghostly double of a living person, especially one that haunts its fleshy counterpart” (Felser, Joseph The Way Back to Paradise, 51). Dr. Felser goes on to explain that sometimes we are presented a glimpse of our doppelgänger by the universe in ways that may not make sense at the time, but later as we reflect we become aware of that’s who we risk turning into if we continue along the present course, feeding our present reactions and not taking time to respond to the situations we are in. For some it might be seeing an obese version of themselves if they don’t change their diet, or exercise more. For others it might be seeing a glimpse of a bitter version of themselves if they do not change the current occupation they are in that they no longer find fulfilling and squashes their creative side. For others, it may be as simple as not taking time to be in nature and observing first hand the interconnectivity of all creation and not bothering to recycle, to pay attention to taking care of the earth, etc… Felser’s Doppelgänger fits in well with Corbin’s “angel out ahead” cosmology when we put it into the perspective that our doppelgänger is who we risk becoming when we have lost touch with, lost sight of or no longer are in communion with our “angel out ahead”. The current polarity facing our country between the right and the left, Republicans and Democrats, conservatives and liberals is greatly fed by our reactions to the news we hear and our lack of taking the time to mindfully, prayerfully, purposely respond in a way that is part of the solution of the problem not further spewing of diversionary rhetoric on the situation. For this episode, I would like to focus our imaginal prayer exercise on ourselves and our young who are in our life and how we might participate in the Anima Mundi — the soul of the world —safety net of protection, of hope, of love. Rather than risk giving more life and credence to the reactionary destructive energies of our cosmic doppelgänger may our imaginal prayer exercise help us foster and nurture a closer relationship with our “angel out ahead”. May it help us discover how to counteract the influences that encourage our young to live out of fear. May the Divine Light of God inspire within our consciousness, our mind, our imagination how to brightly go about spreading divine hope, divine love, divine light and further empower the Anima Mundi protecting our world, our cosmos.
Today, I thought I would take a moment to honor a great thinker, philosopher and theologian who has greatly influenced my spiritual journey and prayer life. A person, who if I had never been introduced to their work, may have never been inspired to start this podcast. I do not have an imaginal prayer exercise but do have a tribute to this theologian who, I think is a saint for his scholarly work and deserves a remembrance on a liturgical calendar. Today, October 7th, marks the 40th anniversary of the passing of Islamic Studies scholar, theologian and philosopher Henry Corbin. Corbin’s greatest contribution perhaps is helping the world discover and appreciate a mysticism not world denying but founded on the principle that all of creation is a theophany, a manifestation of God. For Corbin, the Imagination is the primary means to engage with Creation. From this, he holds that, “Prayer is the supreme act of the Creative Imagination.” This understanding, this worldview or cosmology, sparked within me the notion of “imaginal prayer”. My idea imaginal prayer involves further developing a means of contemplation based not on the self creating the vision to be sought after, nor on self creating that which is to be contemplated upon but on making the space, the place to quiet down the mind and consciousness and open up to the Divine illuminating our imagination with the image of that which we individually and collectively are called to be a part of in helping radiate the Divine Light of Love, of Grace, of Hope throughout the cosmos. Through Spei Lumina, I hope to take those events in our world, often portrayed by media in such a manipulative way so as to greatly incite emotional and negative reactions amongst its receivers and to use an imaginal prayer exercise that transforms our reaction into responsive reflective action seeking to halt the chaotic reactions incited by media and reflect the Divine Light of Hope, of Love, of Joy, of Light. For, as St. Francis of Assisi said, “All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” Without reading Henry Corbin’s works and learning about his cosmology of the Imaginal Mundi, my prayer life and spiritual journey would be far less rich as it is today and I hope that in my small, less academic way, but one of promoting a spiritual praxis I call imaginal prayer, I too can help others discover the rich reality of imaginal prayer and experiencing the Divine and Creation in a whole new way. May our imaginal prayers be like a million candle lights bursting forth upon cosmos eradicating the darkness most modern media seeks to unveil. May the memory of Henry Corbin continue to be a blessing upon the world and a light shining brightly within the cosmos. I hope that you are enjoying the podcast and our imaginal prayer exercises we’ve published to date. I would welcome your feedback at fr.donald@angelsofthenativity.org or speilumina@angelsofthenativity.org. Thank you for listening.
Welcome to Episode 6 of Spei Lumina — Lights of Hope. Yesterday, Oct. 4th, was the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi. I thought rather than take a recent news cycle and work on transforming its reactionary impact on the cosmos, on each of our psyches into an imaginal prayer exercise, I’d use this remembrance of St. Francis of Assisi and his words and works attributed to him as the basis of our imaginal prayer exercise. In so doing, I thought it would give me an opportunity to further explain or give examples of what I mean by “imaginal prayer”. St. Francis is quoted as saying, “All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” It is my hope and intention through this podcast to help emblazon and inflame the light of God, the light of hope, in the world which is bombarded with so much darkness, division, criticism, judgment, and fear through modern media. This podcast came into being as a result of my feeling called to help make a difference in the world through nurturing the reflection of Divine Light in the world so overshadowed by the darkness. I have long had a devotion to Archangel Uriel and wanted to honor that devotion by grounding my imaginal prayer exercises praying to Archangel Uriel for intercession and enlightenment as we imaginally journeyed in our conscious and opened ourselves to God’s Divine light illuminating our conscious with the vision of how we could be vessels of that reflected light and hope in the cosmos. Imaginal prayer is not so much praying with words as it is making space in our consciousness for settling down and quieting, clearing, and vanishing from our mind the thoughts and images which distract us from our Divine calling. So much of our exposure to media — be it broadcast news, social media, radio, and other sources on the Internet — incites intense reactions and emotions. This reactionary impact is what prompted me in my spiritual journey to explore better ways of dealing with the reactionary impact of media within my own life. Meditation indeed seemed key, but I was drawn to something more, to some way of taking the negative reactionary effect, the darkness and transforming that reaction to something positive and reflecting great light and love in the world. This passion for further exploring a way of transforming this reactionary impact of media into something Source focused, Light focused, God focused led me to exploring what I call imaginal prayer, visioning prayer, or pray dreaming. This exploration of imaginal prayer has been greatly influenced by the late Islamic studies philosopher and theologian Dr. Henry Corbin, Phd, and his cosmology of the Imaginal Mundi and more recently by the work of Dr. Joseph M. Felser, Phd and his work The Way Back to Paradise, Restoring the Balance Between Magic and Reason. So, in a nutshell, imaginal prayer offers us not only a way to transform the negative reactionary impact of media within our lives and replace the reactions with making space for God to illuminate our imagination to the solution and how we might respond and offer ourselves in creating that solution. Imaginal prayer leads us from reaction to responsive action that helps reflect and co-create the grace of God, of light, of hope in the cosmos. I have come to believe and know that imaginal prayer is not so much controlling and creating the vision we seek to participate in and ask God to enlighten us how to make it be, as it is humbly clearing our mind, our consciousness from distracting images, visions and thoughts and creating that silence and solitude and blank slate within our consciousness to be open to God/Sprit/the Universe illuminating our mind with the vision that God/Spirit/the Universe calls us to be co-creators in helping come to fruition on Earth. I don’t claim to have all the answers about imaginal prayer, but I do believe that it is a method of contemplative prayer beneficial to those for whom praying with words can occasionally become monotonous and have no meaning. I hope that you too are enjoying this exploration into imaginal prayer. I’d love to hear your feedback. I try to respond to all emails I receive. I can be reached at fr.donald@angelsofthenativity.org. Let us now begin our imaginal prayer exploration of the the Peace Prayer which is attributed to St. Francis.
As a scientist, Tom's insight into religion and psychology balances his worldview given that he matriculated through both the sciences and philosophy. He says, that as soon as he began to see the world through a hand-lens, he was sold on physics, biology, entomology, evolution and ecology, and vertebrate zoology, but landed squarely in biology. Tom's primary area of interest began in complex systems. Access to an electron microscope in the biochemistry lab opened up Tom's understanding of the microscopic world that is within, around, and through us. He defines “complex systems” and uses this interest to look at religion and psychology. Tom asks why no one can predict what the Dow Jones is going to do tomorrow?” Because the economy is a complex system. Tom's “naïve love of biology” was the attitude that bade him to leave the early movement in bioengineering, which he deemed as morally repugnant, and sent him onto a path of recollecting his interests in philosophy and religion primarily to the work of Carl Jung, James Hillman, and Henry Corbin. Tom's love for Hillman is expressed from his seeking psychological diversity and Corbin for his grounding in the imagination. Tom departed from reductive science because his brain began to feel like a machine, cranking out facts, and this landed him in the exploration of the imagination. With this in mind, Tom recognizes the battle within him between the “humanist” and the “scientist.” He believes on some level that adopting an easy pluralism as a means for us each to deal with our tendency toward fundamentalist thinking and behaving. He has been actively undermining the tendency for any human to be motivated by any fundamentalism – which both Henry Corbin and James Hillman do. Good on you, Tom! Bio: Tom graduated from Connecticut College in 1974 with a B.A. in philosophy, magna cum laude, with coursework in history and the history of art, and received the Susanne Langer Award for Achievement in Philosophy. Among the most long-lasting influences were my reading of Hegel, Heidegger, Ernst Cassirer and Erwin Panofsky, as well as the ideas and the teaching of historian F. Edward Cranz. In 1997 Tom resigned from my teaching position and my family moved to Maine. He then began writing in earnest. Tom's first essay on Corbin was among those selected to receive a John Templeton Foundation Exemplary Essay Award in the “Expanding Humanity's Vision of God” Program in 2000. The following year he was one of six invited speakers at the Eranos Conference in Ascona, Switzerland, where Corbin had been a leading figure for many years. Tom's first book on Corbin, the imagination and related themes was published in 2003, and others followed in 2005, 2007, 2012 and 2015. In 2004 he was invited for the first of a series of lectures for the Temenos Academy in London. In the summer of 2007 Tom was honored to be elected a Fellow of the Temenos Academy.

Tom Cheetham (and Pessoa) At this time of Heart-Break – Heart Rising, we call upon Heretical Liberating Esoterica, that we may be Pragmatic Mystics dreaming the desirable world into being… We welcome Tom Cheetham, the author of “Green Man Green Angel,” “All the World an Icon – Henry Corbin and the Angelic Function of Beings,” “The World Turned Inside Out, Henry Corbin and Islamic Mysticism,” “After Prophecy,” and (a wild book of his poems) “Boundary Violations.” Tom has been called ‘a rogue scholar of the imagination in esoteric Islam.' And our shared ally, Michael Lerner, President of Commonweal, says, “Tom Cheetham shows the heights that independent scholars outside academia can achieve. His prior work has virtually defined independent scholarship on Henry Corbin. In Imaginal Love, he has turned his gifts to “the meanings of imagination in James Hillman and Henry Corbin.” The result is a powerful contribution to our understanding of the full meaning of imaginal love — and the central role of such love in human life.” He is a Fellow of the Temenos Academy in London and former Associate Professor of Biology and Environmental Studies at Wilson College. He speaks and gives workshops regularly in Europe and the US.

Acclaimed author Gary Lachman, who has appeared on the show previously, joins us in podcast episode 190 to discuss his recent, and arguably one of his most important books, The Lost Knowledge of the Imagination.Lachman has contributed an important and useful primer to the perennial philosophy and a guide for those ready to explore different, more authentic perspectives of reality. While it may be overshadowed by more sensational or popular material by this author, The Lost Knowledge of the Imagination is my favorite work by Gary Lachman. This book speaks to the soul and invites the reader to consider a way of perceiving that re-enchants the world.“The ability to imagine is at the heart of what makes us human. Through our imagination we experience more fully the world both around us and within us. Imagination plays a key role in creativity and innovation.“Until the seventeenth century, the human imagination was celebrated. Since then, with the emergence of science as the dominant worldview, imagination has been marginalized -- depicted as a way of escaping reality, rather than knowing it more profoundly -- and its significance to our humanity has been downplayed.“Yet as we move further into the strange new dimensions of the twenty-first century, the need to regain this lost knowledge seems more necessary than ever before.“This insightful and inspiring book argues that, for the sake of our future in the world, we must reclaim the ability to imagine and redress the balance of influence between imagination and science.“Through the work of Owen Barfield, Goethe, Henry Corbin, Kathleen Raine, and others, and ranging from the teachings of ancient mystics to the latest developments in neuroscience, The Lost Knowledge of the Imagination draws us back to a philosophy and tradition that restores imagination to its rightful place, essential to our knowing reality to the full, and to our very humanity itself.”Gary Lachman is one of today’s most respected writers on esoteric and occult themes. His many books – including those on Madame Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, Swedenborg, Jung the Mystic, and Rudolf Steiner— have received international acclaim. A founding member of the band Blondie, Lachman has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

His many books – including those on Madame Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, Swedenborg, Jung the Mystic, and Rudolf Steiner— have received international acclaim. A founding member of the band Blondie, Lachman has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He lives in London and you can find his web site at garylachman.co.uk.

A few words to listeners plus a bit more commentary on Henry Corbin's relation to historicism and Traditionalism.
Henry Corbin’s work was devoted to illustrating deep connections between the mystical traditions within Christianity and Islam and Judaism. He thought of this as similar to the attempts of early Christians to reconcile the stories in the four Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. The traditional name for the underlying unity of the Gospels is the Harmonia evangelica. Corbin thought that Judaism, Christianity & Islam were all united by an underlying Harmonia Abrahamica: the harmony of the religions of Abraham.
Tom Cheetham, PhD Spiritual Imagination in the Work of Henry Corbin, CG Jung and James Hillman Tom Cheetham makes a presention on Henry Corbin’s work and the links with Jungian psychology, and has a conversation with Dr. Michael Lerner on aspects of this topic. Henry Corbin (1903-1978) was a visionary Protestant theologian and a ground-breaking scholar and translator of Islamic mysticism. His understanding of the imagination as the fundamental creative principle in the world is urgently needed in our pluralistic and interconnected global society. He was a friend and colleague of C.G. Jung and shared his view of the significance of the active imagination in human life as well as his profound grasp of the importance of alchemy for religious psychology. Tom Cheetham, PhD Tom is a biologist, a philosopher, and the author of four books on the imagination and the meaning of Henry Corbin’s work for the contemporary world. He is a Fellow of the Temenos Academy in London and Adjunct Professor of Human Ecology at the College of the Atlantic in Bar Harbor, Maine. He lectures regularly in Europe and the United States. Tom’s website, and the official Henry Corbin website, have more information. Find out more about The New School at tns.commonweal.org.
Michael Lerner, PhD Archetypal Psychology: The Role of Soul in Daily Life Join Michael Lerner in this discussion about his studies and journey with archetypal psychology. James Hillman, a Jungian analyst, founded archetypal psychology to explore the power of archetypes and the place of soul in our psyches and daily lives. Thomas Moore popularized Hillman’s sometimes obscure writings. We’ll trace the lineage of archetypal psychology from the pre-Socratics through medieval and contemporary sources as a great tradition of Western psychology that complements Buddhist and other Eastern psychological traditions. Useful homework for listening to the podcast: 1. Read the Wikipedia entries on both Hillman and Moore, and background entries on Carl Jung and the Sufi scholar Henry Corbin. Note especially Corbin’s seminal book about the Sufi mysticism of Ibn Arabi, Alone with the Alone. 2. If possible, read any of Hillman and Moore’s books. Suggested: James Hillman, The Soul’s Code, The Force of Character and the Lasting Life, or A Blue Fire; Thomas Moore, Care of the Soul, Dark Nights of the Soul, or Soul Mates 3. Don’t do any of the above but come with an open and inquiring mind. Michael Lerner, PhD Michael is the president and co-founder of Commonweal and of Smith Farm Center for Healing and the Arts in Washington, D.C. His principle work at Commonweal is with the Cancer Help Program, the Collaborative on Health and the Environment, and The New School at Commonweal. He is author of Choices in Healing: Integrating the Best of Conventional and Complementary Therapies (MIT Press). He has spent the past months reading intensively in archetypal psychology and wants to share the exploration with New School friends. Find out more about The New School at tns.commonweal.org.
