Seats are limited - register now to secure your spot. https://products.sharedpractices.com/tfap-intro-to-aox-2026 In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Leke Olowokere sits down with Dr. Tomaz Kaczynski from Warsaw, Poland, to explore how full-arch dentistry has evolved across Europe — and what U.S. clinicians can learn from it. They unpack Tomaz's journey from perio to full arch, why his workflow moved from graft-heavy timelines to immediate solutions, and when FP1 vs FP3 truly makes sense for long-term success. Tomaz also shares how pterygoids transformed his complication rates, the biggest lessons from thousands of arches, and why patient psychology matters just as much as surgical skill. Key Highlights: FP1 vs FP3 Clarity – Why FP1 preserves future options but demands precision, and when FP3 offers a more predictable path. Pterygoids Reduce Failures – How adopting pterygoid anchorage dramatically lowered complications from tilted maxillary implants. Case Selection Is Everything – Lifestyle, health, and patient mindset often matter more than bone. The right "yes" starts with the right "no."

Episode 374: Mind Over Magic - The Psychology of Rituals with Richard Kaczynski Episode Description We stand in the most mystical time of the year—the season when the veil between worlds grows gossamer thin. From October 31st through November 2nd, we traverse sacred ground through Halloween, Samhain, All Saints' Day, and Día de los Muertos. In this powerful episode, we shift our focus from the hands-on practice of Reiki to explore the psychology behind ritual and magic itself. Join host Terri Ann Heiman as she welcomes Richard Kaczynski, PhD, author of Mind Over Magic: The Psychology of Rituals, for a fascinating conversation about how our beliefs shape our reality and how understanding the psychological mechanisms behind spiritual practices can help us get the most out of them. Guest Bio Richard Kaczynski is a lifetime student and writer on Western Esotericism and an authority on the life and works of Aleister Crowley. He is the author of Perdurabo: The Life of Aleister Crowley and editor of Crowley's The Sword of Song. Richard holds a PhD in psychology with a minor in statistics, and his doctoral dissertation examined the structure and correlates of metaphysical beliefs. His latest book, Mind Over Magic: The Psychology of Rituals, explores how psychological research can illuminate spiritual practices across all traditions. Key Topics Discussed The Journey from Psychology to Magic •Richard's lifelong interest in alternative spiritualities and how it led him to pursue psychology •The disappointment of not finding a "grand unified theory" in graduate school •How 30 years of research revealed a jigsaw puzzle of psychological insights about spiritual practices •The intersection of social psychology, statistics, and esoteric traditions Childhood Mystical Experiences •Richard's childhood encounter with an unexplainable figure in suburban Detroit •How these experiences are actually common parts of human experience, not aberrations •The importance of normalizing conversations about unexplainable phenomena •How transformative experiences can fundamentally change personality and worldview Pattern Recognition and Discernment •Humans as pattern-seeking creatures (Gestalt psychology) •The concept of "agenticity"—seeing agency or cause behind random events •How this cuts both ways: believers may see patterns that aren't there, while skeptics miss patterns that are •Walking the middle path between accepting everything and rejecting everything •The critical importance of discernment in spiritual practice Defining Magic (with a K) •Why Richard chose to spell it "magick" (following Aleister Crowley's distinction from stage magic) •Crowley's definition: "the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with Will" •Magic as any intentional act—from casting circles to saying grace before meals •How this broad definition encompasses practices across all spiritual traditions •The science versus the art of magical practice The Power of Mindfulness in Practice •Why being present is essential to getting benefits from any spiritual practice •The danger of going through the motions without true engagement •Examples: meditation while distracted, saying prayers automatically, greeting the sun mindlessly •How mindfulness amplifies the effectiveness of ritual work Group Ritual and Synchronous Behavior •Research on synchronous behavior and its psychological effects •How brainwave patterns synchronize when people engage in activities together •The positive evaluation of others when in sync (drum circles, group recitation, etc.) •The unique benefits of both solitary and group practice •Why the real work ultimately happens in private, individual practice= The Psychological Levers of Ritual •How various ritual elements manipulate psychological mechanisms •The role of special garments, implements (bells, wands, tarot cards), sacred space •Creating the "liminal space" where magic happens •Understanding these levers helps us access transformative states more easily •Science explaining what many practitioners have always known Evolution and Transformation •How ritual practices help us evolve into the best version of ourselves •Breaking free from fixed personality traits through transformative experiences •The importance of going within rather than surface living •Recognizing and breaking repetitive patterns •Raising consciousness creates a ripple effect that touches everyone around us The Modern Metaphysical Community •How the internet and social media have made spiritual communities more accessible •The danger of siloing within specific traditions •The importance of attending conferences and events outside your tradition •The challenge of maintaining brick-and-mortar metaphysical spaces •The growth of metaphysical awareness and openness in recent decades Science Meets Spirituality •How psychology validates spiritual practices without explaining away the mystery •The value of scientific understanding for skeptics •Why we don't need to choose between "woo" and science •Using the scientific method to evaluate your own spiritual work •Understanding enhances practice; it doesn't diminish the magic Key Quotes Richard Kaczynski: "By understanding the role of psychology in the practices that we undertake in our spirituality, we can get the most out of those practices. And to the extent to which our spirituality is aimed at inner transformation, raising our consciousness, becoming the best version of ourselves, we can do that more effectively through that understanding." "You're not stuck being who you are right now. You can actually evolve yourself through these practices, and they're transformative." "I don't claim to explain what happens in that liminal space. It's that liminal space where the magic happens. But these psychological tools give us access to that space and make it easier to get there." Terri Ann Heiman: "We each have the power to go within and facilitate our own transformation, and in doing so, we raise not only our consciousness, but create a ripple effect that touches all those around us."

Neste episódio, vamos falar sobre um tema que movimenta a economia criativa, gera renda e fortalece conexões reais entre talentos e o público: as feiras itinerantes. Essas feiras são verdadeiras vitrines para pequenos negócios — reunindo artesãos, confeiteiros, estilistas e criadores de todos os tipos em espaços que respiram inovação e autenticidade. E Porto Alegre é um celeiro de eventos assim: só nos últimos anos, a cidade viu crescer o número de feiras independentes que movimentam bairros, ocupam espaços públicos e revelam novos empreendedores. Para conversar com a gente sobre o impacto dessas feiras na vida de quem organiza e de quem expõe, vamos conversar com dois convidados especiais:Lulu Alberti, idealizadora do Le Marché Chic, uma das feiras itinerantes mais conhecidas da capital gaúcha e Marcos Vinícios Kaczynski, artesão e proprietário do Studio Madero, que transforma madeira em peças únicas e já participou de diversas feiras pela cidade. Vamos entender juntos como esses eventos vão além da venda — e se tornam espaços de criação, conexão e crescimento

Written in prison in 2002, The System's Neatest Trick is an essay from Kaczynski's Technological Slavery. In it, Kaczynski describes how 'the System' - more or less a technological society - redirects the popular frustration caused by its intrusions into human life, and its subversion of the power process. Where does it redirect this frustration? Into 'activist' causes, both as a pressure-release valve on popular discontent, and as a way to expedite the social changes required for an expansion of technological slavery.Read The System's Neatest Trick here: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/ted-kaczynski-the-system-s-neatest-trickVERY IMPORTANT INFORMATIONJack has published a novel called Tower!Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Tower-Jack-BC-ebook/dp/B0CM5P9N9M/ref=monarch_sidesheetThe first nine chapters of Tower are available for free here: jackbc.substack.comOur Patreon: www.patreon.com/TheBookClubfromHellJack's Substack: jackbc.substack.comLevi's website: www.levioutloud.comwww.thebookclubfromhell.comJoin our Discord (the best place to interact with us): discord.gg/ZMtDJ9HscrWatch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0n7r1ZTpsUw5exoYxb4aKA/featuredX: @bookclubhell666Jack on X: @supersquat1Levi on X: @optimismlevi

In this episode, we dive deep into the disturbing true story of how the CIA and Harvard collaborated in the 1960s on secret psychological experiments — experiments so cruel and invasive they may have helped create one of America's most notorious domestic terrorists: Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber.We explore how the CIA's MKUltra program used hypnosis, LSD, and psychological torture on students under the guise of academic research, and how Harvard willingly provided cover for it. The speakers reflect on the moral failure of these institutions, the impact it had on Kaczynski, and what it reveals about the battle for our minds today.They also tie the story to biblical truths — warning listeners not to conform to the world, encouraging them to take every thought captive, and to put on the full armor of God. This episode unpacks the spiritual and cultural battle for your mind and why standing firm in your faith is essential.
In this episode, I talk with Richard Kaczynski --renowned Crowley biographer, scholar of Western esotericism, and author of Perdurabo: The Life of Aleister Crowley—about his latest work: a fully annotated edition of The Sword of Song: Called by Christians The Book of the Beast.Originally published by Aleister Crowley in 1904 and long unavailable to the wider public, The Sword of Song captures a formative moment in his journey where satire, mysticism, and radical spiritual thought all converge. As editor of this new edition, Richard draws from Crowley's preferred texts, unpublished manuscripts, and personal margin notes to present a definitive version of Crowley's book, which was originally published just before his encounter with Aiwass.We take a deeper look at the timeline of it's publication, and explore how it laid the groundwork for later works like The Book of the Law while reflecting on Crowley's early life and philosophical journey. Along the way, we also take time to unpack some of the biggest rumors and misconceptions about Crowley himself—while shedding light on the lesser-known sides of the man behind “The Beast.” An incredible episode...

Il est le troisième homme dans la course à la présidentielle polonaise, mais le premier chez les jeunes électeurs. Le candidat du parti d'extrême droite Konfederacja Sławomir Mentzen combine une vision sociétale très conservatrice à un programme économique très libéral. Sa vision devrait attirer près d'un jeune électeur sur trois ce dimanche 18 mai. De notre correspondant à Varsovie,Il fait partie de ces hommes politiques qui savent soigner leurs apparitions. Émergeant d'un nuage de fumée rouge et blanche, Slawomir Mentzen salue les centaines de Varsoviens massés sur la place de la Cour suprême polonaise. Au milieu de la foule, Krystian est déjà conquis par le candidat : « En tant que citoyen, je veux pouvoir rouler dans la voiture que je veux, je veux pouvoir porter une arme à ma ceinture, et je ne veux pas qu'un quelconque politique essaie de m'en empêcher. »C'est avant tout le côté libertarien du candidat qui a su convaincre le jeune étudiant en marketing. Agata, elle, ne sait pas encore pour qui elle va voter, mais elle est déjà convaincue par le personnage : « C'est le candidat le plus puissant en termes de caractère, il est sûr de lui et de ce qu'il dit, et si les jeunes veulent quelque chose de nouveau, ils vont vouloir quelqu'un qui a un fort caractère et qui n'a pas peur de s'affirmer. »La jeune indécise serait presque prête à sauter le pas, quitte à fermer les yeux sur la vision très conservatrice et nationaliste de Mentzen sur les questions sociétales : « Ce n'est pas le candidat dont je me sens le plus proche en termes de questions sociétales, mais son discours sur les questions économiques et financières me parlent davantage. Et je pense que c'est important, car les jeunes veulent pouvoir monter des entreprises et gagner de l'argent. »À lire aussiPologne: dernier débat très vif avant la présidentielle du 18 maiDésillusion des jeunes À 18 ans, Weronika s'apprête à voter pour la première fois, et pourrait se laisser tenter par lassitude, alors qu'elle s'oppose frontalement à certaines de ses promesses : « Je ne soutiens pas tous les points du programme de Mentzen. Par exemple, le fait qu'il veuille rendre les études payantes. Mais je veux aussi qu'il y ait d'autres alternatives qu'un gouvernement PO ou PiS, et que quelqu'un de nouveau puisse entrer dans la course. »Un sentiment de désillusion partagé par la plupart des Polonais d'une vingtaine d'années qui n'ont connu toute leur vie que l'alternance entre les gouvernements de Tusk et de Kaczynski. Alors chez Konfederacja, on a fait place nette à l'approche des élections, en prenant ses distances avec son fondateur. Il était notamment connu pour avoir déclaré que les femmes faisaient partie du patrimoine de leur mari, ou encore qu'il faudrait leur retirer le droit de vote. À 17 ans, Oliwia assure n'avoir rejoint les jeunesses du parti qu'après son éviction : « Je ne suis pas d'accord avec la majorité de ce qu'il a pu dire. Et en venant ici, je me suis rendu compte que la majorité des politiciens avec lesquels je parlais, n'ont absolument pas la même opinion. Maintenant, on a des députées et des eurodéputées chez Konfederacja. »Au mois d'avril, la moitié des jeunes électeurs comptait donner leur voix à Mentzen. Une proportion aujourd'hui divisée par deux, depuis que le candidat a qualifié le viol de simple « désagrément ».À écouter aussiLa sécurité en toile de fond de l'élection présidentielle en Pologne

Online, there is a name for the experience of finding sympathy with Ted Kaczynski, the Unabomber: Tedpilling. To be Tedpilled means to read Paragraph 1 of Kaczynski's manifesto, its assertion that the mad dash of technological advancement since the Industrial Revolution has “made life unfulfilling,” “led to widespread psychological suffering” and “inflicted severe damage on the natural world,” and think, Well, sure.Since Kaczynski's death by suicide in a federal prison in North Carolina nearly two years ago, the taboo surrounding the figure has been weakening. This is especially true on the right, where pessimism and paranoia about technology — largely the province of the left not long ago — have spread on the heels of the coronavirus pandemic and efforts to police speech on social media platforms.

In this episode Chris and Kyle conclude their exploration of the infamous Ted Kaczynski manifesto titled: “Industrial Society and It's Future.” The later section covered in this episode hinges on one existential dialectic--Technology or Freedom? We discuss Kaczynski's opinion about the nature of freedom and how it's preservation is inconsistent with the endless advancement of technology. What will it be, Modern Man? An apocalypse Terminator-style, a voluntary species-wide self-sacrifice...or perhaps something else. Can the advance of technology provide an alternative? Might our enslaver become our savior? Or, might there be a place for two versions of society to exist alongside each other? Could Brave New World have provided the blueprint? Advanced technological utopia on one side, and "primitive" reservations on the other? Enjoy :)
Während einige Stimmen sich für individuelle Fairness aussprechen, fordern andere gleiche Bedingungen für alle. Aber die soziale Kluft scheint trotz anderslautender Versprechen zu wachsen.

How does a child math prodigy with an Ivy League pedigree turn into a domestic terrorist? What could drive such a person to sacrifice their future? For what end? What could possibly be worth it? How about saving the world? In this episode we discuss Ted Kaczynski aka the UNABOMER. Straight to the horses mouth, we let Ted tell his side of the story, reading through his infamous 50 page manifesto titled: “Industrial Society and It's Future.” Was Kaczynski a madman bent on destruction or was he something more? Was his beef with a future technological utopia or was it with the ideological left? If that question surprises you, strap in! 'cause you're in for an enlightening stroll through history, propaganda and the mind of desperate, troubled, genius. Enjoy ;)

„Az élet nem mehetett abban a kerékvágásban, ahogy addig, hiszen egyszerűen becsapták az embereket” – mondja Gordon István Lengyelország-szakértő a Qubit legújabb podcastjában arról, hogy a Tusk-kormány egyik napról a másikra menesztette a lengyel köztévé és közrádió felső vezetését.

In 1978 Ted Kaczynski began what would become a series of bombings around the United States over the next two decades. Kaczynski, who was then an unknown serial bomber, wanted to rid the country of modern technology which he believed was destroying human minds and society. By 1996, the Unabomber had killed three and injured twenty nine others with his carefully crafted homemade bombs. The investigation into the Unabomber was the most expensive investigation in the history of the FBI with an estimated to cost around 50 million dollars.
During a 17-year bombing campaign, an elusive terrorist known as the Unabomber killed three and injured 23 Americans. In 1995, he contacted The New York Times and The Washington Post promising to stop his terror attacks if they published his 35,000-word manifesto. The document explained his aim: to dismantle modern industrial society. On the advice of the FBI and the Attorney General, the newspapers published the manifesto, which led to the Unabomber's downfall. Dr Kathleen Puckett was an FBI agent who uncovered his identity. She speaks to Ben Henderson.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past.

This episode originally ran on Monday 19 June 2023. Theodore ‘Ted' Kaczynski died at the federal prison in Butner, North Carolina, last year at the age of 81. Known as the Unabomber, Kaczynski waged a 17-year bombing campaign from an isolated shack in the Montana wilderness before finally being caught in 1996. One of those who helped apprehend Kaczynski was former FBI agent Jim Fitzgerald. He tells Michael Safi that the arrest was only possible after the publication of the bomber's manifesto in the Washington Post. It was those words that were recognised by Kaczynski's brother, who took his concerns to the authorities

[This blog will always be free to read, but it's also how I pay my bills. If you have suggestions or feedback on how I can earn your paid subscription, shoot me an email: cmclymer@gmail.com.]It's been six days since UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was murdered outside the New York Hilton Midtown just before 7am.The assassin, 26 year-old Luigi Mangione, was apprehended yesterday at a McDonald's in Altoona, PA after an employee there recognized him from publicly released images and called the police.He was carrying a 3D printed gun, a 3D printed silencer, several fake IDs, and a three-page manifesto in defense of the murder. Was he hoping to get caught? It sure seems like it.As with so many other issues in our increasingly divided country, the incident has become far less about discussing the particulars in good faith and more about aggressively rationalizing our biases and shutting down anyone who challenges them.America's health care system is severely broken, held in place by insurance companies who routinely engage in unethical practices for which the primary goal is prioritizing corporate profits over sick people, enabled by enough lawmakers who directly benefit from preserving that status quo.Meanwhile, the country is quite clearly veering into an era in which political violence is increasingly seen by many as not only acceptable but necessary.In his manifesto, Mangione wrote: “I do apologize for any strife or traumas, but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites had it coming.”Bizarrely, in his Goodreads four-star review of “Industrial Society and Its Future” by Ted Kaczynski—better known to us plebs as “The Unabomber Manifesto”—he wrote that Kaczynski was “rightfully imprisoned” but also:“When all other forms of communication fail, violence is necessary to survive. You may not like his methods, but to see things from his perspective, it's not terrorism, it's war and revolution… […] Peaceful protest is outright ignored, economic protest isn't possible in the current system, so how long until we recognize that violence against those who lead us to such destruction is justified as self-defense.”Yeah, that's certainly one way to sum it up.Here's another way: Ted Kaczynski was a vile, self-absorbed piece-of-s**t who intentionally murdered and maimed innocent people from the comfort of his remote cabin and justified it with a narcissistic pseudo-intellectualism instead of, you know, having the guts to engage in the hard work of advocacy.He was not a revolutionary. He was a terrorist and a coward whose actions only served to inspire a generation of more self-absorbed extremists, and I'm really glad he's no longer walking the earth.Of course, some will whine this is unfair framing because Mangione targeted a horrible enabler of this unfair system rather than innocent people, he's merely agreeing with Kaczynski on the principle of violence as necessary, and our disgust should be with corporations who have willingly bankrupted and/or enabled the deaths of millions.Of course we should be disgusted with these corporations. They're cruel and predatory and inhumane. They knowingly exploit the suffering of innocent and sick people to maximize profit.But just for the sake of argument, let's briefly allow these other things to be true: Mangione was right to murder Thompson, health care executives deserve any violence coming to them, etc.Okay, so, what now? Tell me what happens next. Because in the past week, I have read zero commentary that answers this with any degree of sufficient reason.The hopeful wish—and I think even that's generous—is that health care executives will somehow be intimidated into curbing their unethical practices out of fear being targeted next. Are you kidding me? Health care executives aren't going to let a little homicide get in the way of their profits. They'll beef up security, hire the best PR professionals money can buy, increase lobbying to complicit lawmakers, and leverage this murder for sympathy.And it will work. You know how I know that? Because we just had an election in which an openly corrupt champion of corporate greed who still hasn't released his supposed health care plan since he first ran for president eight years ago was picked over a policy expert who had a defined health care plan and was nominated by a political party that achieved the greatest health care reform in modern history.How many millions of people openly cheering on Mangione stayed home or even voted for Trump? How many of them had time to share memes online but not organize family and friends and neighbors to get out the vote because of purity politics or VP Harris just isn't likable or Democrats aren't good enough or both parties are the same (they are clearly not) or, hell, someone else will do that work, so why bother?Mangione is one of them. Here's this Ivy League educated young man from a privileged family and an impressive social network who could have tried to use those resources to change the system. But he didn't even try. He didn't venture into health care advocacy or do any political organizing on this. He read a manifesto written by a violent clown and decided it better served either his ego or convenience to murder a health care executive on the street than undertake the difficult work of reform.My issue is not with the millions of people in this country who have said over the past week that they're not mourning the murder of Thompson because Thompson sure as hell didn't mourn their loved ones who have been cruelly victimized by corporations like UnitedHealthcare. They're well within their right to feel that way. I come from a family background in which it was obvious growing up that insurance companies would sooner allow us to die or be financially ruined than grant us the care we need. I get it.My problem isn't with the millions people who are rightly pointing out all the ways in which UnitedHealthcare is evil and openly asking: where is the sympathy for the most vulnerable in this country when they perish because executives have decided their lives and livelihoods aren't profitable?That is absolutely necessary to ask and demand an answer to it.My problem is with Mangione and people like him who don't do the work that needs to be done and encourage political violence as a supposed last straw—not having really tried other approaches in good faith—which, in the end, will only further normalize a growing culture of political violence that overwhelmingly harms the innocent and most vulnerable.Murdering people in the street is ultimately wrong not because it's a question of whether or not the person murdered deserves it but because it further erodes the social guardrail, which is thinning at an alarming rate, that it's immoral to inflict violence on others out of political and policy disagreements.Political violence solves nothing. It never has. All it does is offer a brief sense of smug satisfaction for some, fuel for the worst people to continue doing what they do, and more than enough room for dead innocents after that.Charlotte's Web Thoughts is a reader-supported publication.

Ted Kaczynski. Mató a tres personas e hirió a 23, durante una campaña de atentados con bomba contra líneas aéreas y universidades por todo estado unidos que se prolongó desde 1978 hasta 1995, provocando que el FBI emprendiera una caza y captura que costó 50 millones de dólares durante los casi 20 años en los que carecían de pruebas hasta que el propio hermano de Kaczynski les dio una pista clave.
In this episode, we sit down with esteemed author Richard Kaczynski and practicing occultist Lynn Mavius for a captivating discussion on their journeys through Thelema, magic, and the intricate history surrounding figures like Aleister Crowley, J.F.C. Fuller, and Victor Neuburg. Richard opens by delving into his extensive contributions to the Western esoteric tradition, highlighting his renowned biography Perdurabo, which offers a comprehensive account of Crowley's life. He also shares insights from his latest work, Friendship and Doubt, a deep exploration of the intertwined relationships between Crowley, Fuller, and Neuburg, and how their agnosticism and free thought shaped their magical practices and personal philosophies. Lynn complements Richard's narrative by sharing her experiences as both a writer and a dedicated occultist. She discusses her active role within the local Pagan and Thelemic communities, where she teaches and engages with a broad spectrum of spiritual practices. As the conversation progresses, Richard and Lynn explore the idea of being a well-rounded magician, emphasizing the need to balance esoteric study with broader worldly pursuits. They reflect on their own practices, underscoring the importance of discernment, listening to one's inner voice, and the pursuit of one's true will. The pair also dive into the dynamics of being a magical couple within Thelema. With candid anecdotes, they discuss how their shared spiritual practices strengthen their bond, while also stressing the importance of maintaining individual paths. The conversation then shifts to a timely topic: the influence of social media—especially TikTok—on the dissemination of esoteric knowledge. Both express concern over the rise of disinformation and the cultural shifts within modern spirituality. Lynn points out the increasing polarization within occult communities and the lack of nuance in contemporary discussions of esoteric authors and their works. Together, they call for a revival of the intellectual curiosity that once characterized earlier generations of practitioners, encouraging engagement with diverse viewpoints, even those that challenge one's own beliefs. As the dialogue nears its conclusion, Richard shares exciting updates on his upcoming projects, including the audiobook release of Perdurabo, the critical edition of The Sword of Song, and his forthcoming book Mind Over Magic, which seeks to bridge the gap between psychic practices and psychological research. Lynn also promotes her latest initiatives, inviting listeners to join her online community and attend her lectures on modern occultism. Together, Richard and Lynn offer a contemporary lens on Thelema, advocating for inclusivity, thoughtful engagement, and the reclamation of magical traditions in today's society. Their conversation is not only thought-provoking but also a call to deeper understanding, challenging preconceived notions of what it means to be a practitioner in the modern world, while enriching our appreciation of Thelemic history.

In the book, The Anatomy of Fascism, Robert Paxton argues that “Fascists need a demonized enemy against which to mobilize followers, but of course the enemy does not have to be Jewish. Each culture specifies the national enemy.” (p. 37) The system is moving more and more to the Right with rage directed at liberalism and individualism. The Gender Identity game places transgender individuals as the new Other as the national enemy. However, this is a Media game and the Media games are meant to pacify us. The system is designed for in-fighting and pacification as opposed to the mobilizing passions of Fascism. The solution is Zen. Zen aims to convey the indescribable. Zen does not rely on words or scriptures or beliefs. In fact, this discriminating thinking (this/that) keeps us farther away from Zen. Intuitive knowledge (prajñā) and thought-less-ness (dhyāna) are not two not one. This description of “emptiness” implies everything at once (no obstruction) or direct experience. You have met this type of person: they are friendly and peaceful. Like a young child we must rely on intuitive knowledge to “be” the world rather than be a separate somebody: “me” and “the world.” In the social sphere, the “emptiness” of intuitive knowledge manifests as relational friendliness. With friendliness we add mercy to create relational peace. We are not two not one. The still point above opposites. This is in contrast with the symbiotic process of Fascism: the citizen is part of an enforced symbiosis with the state and they are void of a private self. Fascism was mass mobilization + violent provocations and manipulation for the cause of imperial war. Zen in practice is intimacy through peace-making. It requires “emptiness” (friendliness) + mercy.

Novelist Maxim Loskutoff joins co-host V.V. Ganeshananthan and guest co-host Matt Gallagher to talk about his new novel, Old King, which is about Unabomber Ted Kaczynski, who moved to Montana to withdraw from society. Loskutoff, who grew up in Missoula, Montana, discusses the mythology that draws men like Kaczynski—who sought to be in nature, and to avoid technology and other people—to his home state; the gap between the imaginary American West and its reality; and how these connect to American settler colonialism. He also explains how he positioned the Kaczynski of his novel not as a hero or even an antihero, but as a symbol of this dark and unhealed facet of American society.
