The July 4th Illusion: Jekyll Island's Creature, Manly P. Hall's Secret Destiny, and the Stolen Soul of 1776 Today we're dropping the full red-pill marathon of pure, unfiltered truth. We're connecting every dot from the secret 1910 Jekyll Island meeting that birthed the Federal Reserve creature, to the engineered Great Depression as the ultimate reset, all the way back to the biggest lie of them all: America's so-called founding on that July 4th birthday we're told to celebrate every year.

Alexander Sachon explores the intersection of esoteric philosophy and global power structures. The discussion traces the rise of an American oligarchy from the Gilded Age, arguing that a private financial cartel has effectively bypassed the constitutional republic to manage a global empire. A central theme is the existence of a technocratic superstate, a secretive tier of power that allegedly possesses advanced etheric energy technologies hidden from the general public. He suggests that global government is an inevitable evolutionary step, though currently manifested through a dystopian control grid and engineered conflicts like the Cold War. Ultimately, Sachon posits that the UFO phenomenon serves as a gateway to revealing a post-capitalist economy rooted in these suppressed scientific breakthroughs.

Gary Lachman in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.amazon.co.uk/Touched-Presence-Blondies-Bowery-Occult/dp/B0DSV388DQ https://www.gary-lachman.com/ https://garylachman.co.uk/ In this memoir, Lachman recounts how he went from being a successful rock and roller to a writer on consciousness and the Western inner tradition. He shares encounters with rockers such as the Ramones, New York Dolls, Patti Smith, the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, and Iggy Pop and also his time with Timothy Leary, William Burroughs, and Allen Ginsberg. Living with Blondie's Debbie Harry and Chris Stein on New York's Bowery, a block from CBGB, the birthplace of punk rock, Lachman discovered occultism via a follower of Aleister Crowley. Post rock and roll, Lachman's occult studies brought him to the Golden Dawn, Manly P. Hall, Gnosticism, and a stint in Crowley's O.T.O. He details his time in the Fourth Way, including a visit to the site of Gurdjieff 's Institute for the Harmonious Development of Man in France, and his years studying philosophy and literature and working as a science writer while managing a famous metaphysical bookshop at the height of the New Age movement. Excursions to Stonehenge, Avebury, and Glastonbury in search of ley lines and pilgrimages to Colin Wilson's home in Cornwall are a few of the highlights of this introspective, often humorous account of a nascent writer's struggle from rock and roll to individuation.

This is an excerpt from the Killah Priest podcast, featuring Alex Sachon and Mitch Horowitz, where Manly P. Hall's life, career, and teachings are discussed. The conversation covers Hall's biography, his early lecturing to high-degree Freemasons, the PRS archive in LA, and the idea of enduring mystery schools tied to inner consciousness and a unified tradition behind world philosophies.00:00 Intro and Clip Setup01:03 Hall Early Genius05:16 Masonry Mystery06:58 Origins and Early Life09:40 Publishing Secret Teachings12:13 Where to Start Reading15:19 Beyond the Western Canon17:04 Mystery Schools Today19:15 One Tradition, One Truth

Summary: Masonic Muscle — Pagan Mystery Origins EpisodeThis episode of Masonic Muscle explores one of the most controversial and intellectually provocative theories about Freemasonry—the idea that its roots trace back not just to medieval stonemasons, but to the ancient pagan mystery schools of Egypt, Greece, and Rome.The Pagan Mystery Theory suggests that Freemasonry preserves the structure and symbolism of ancient initiation systems. These mystery schools used secrecy, ritual progression, and symbolic death-and-rebirth experiences to transform initiates—elements strikingly similar to modern Masonic degrees. (Universal Co-Masonry)This theory gained momentum in the 18th and 19th centuries, when scholars and Masons began looking beyond operative guild origins. Influential figures like Antoine Court de Gébelin, Albert Pike, and Manly P. Hall argued that Masonic symbols and teachings echoed ancient religious and philosophical traditions. Their work framed Freemasonry as a continuation of universal wisdom, rather than a purely medieval institution.Supporters of the theory point to strong symbolic parallels:Initiation rituals centered on transformationShared themes of light, darkness, and rebirthSecret teachings revealed progressivelySome Masonic writers even argue that ancient pagan mysteries functioned similarly to modern lodges—preserving deeper truths through symbolic instruction and initiation. (Universal Co-Masonry)However, critics push back hard.Opponents argue there is no direct historical evidence linking ancient mystery schools to modern Freemasonry. Most historians instead trace Freemasonry to medieval stonemason guilds that evolved into philosophical societies over time. (MasonicFind)The debate ultimately comes down to this:Proponents: See continuity in symbolism and philosophyOpponents: Demand documented historical lineageThe truth likely sits in the middle—Freemasonry may not descend directly from pagan mysteries, but it almost certainly drew inspiration from ancient traditions during its intellectual development.Beyond history, the episode emphasizes a deeper message: Freemasonry is not just about where it came from—it's about what it does to you. The rituals, symbols, and teachings are tools for transformation, regardless of their origin.To bring that idea into the modern world, Masonic Muscle ties this philosophy to physical discipline. Just as ancient initiates underwent trials, modern Masons are encouraged to strengthen both mind and body through:Consistent training over motivationMastery of foundational exercises (push-ups, squats, pull-ups)Building mental resilience through physical effortThe takeaway is clear: whether the roots are medieval or ancient, the purpose remains the same—self-mastery.#MasonicMuscle #Freemasonry #MasonicPodcast #AncientMysteries #EsotericKnowledge #Brotherhood #SelfMastery #MindAndBody #MasonicLife #HiddenHistory #Philosophy #Initiation #MensWork #Discipline #StrengthAndHonor

This Sunday we welcome Ronnie Pontiac — author, researcher, and former assistant to Manly P. Hall — to explore the hidden history behind his latest book, The Rosicrucian Counterculture: The Origins and Influence of the Invisible Society. We trace the strange saga of Rosicrucianism from 17th‑century Germany to the courts of Rudolf II, through Descartes, Fludd, Dee, Ashmole, and the alchemist‑pirate Prince Rupert. We follow its underground influence on the English Revolution, early America, and even modern psychedelic and pop‑culture movements. What was the Invisible Society? Who shaped it? And why does its influence still echo today? A deep dive into esoteric history, hidden networks, and the counterculture that never really disappeared.

Gary Lachman - Touched by the Presence: From Blondie's Bowery and Rock and Roll to Magic and the OccultA memoir of magic, rock and roll, and becoming who you are• Traces the author's journey from bassist and founding member of Blondie to writer on consciousness and the esoteric tradition• Explores his involvement in Gurdjieff's Fourth Way, Crowley's Thelema, and his relationship with the bestselling author Colin Wilson• Reveals how an early love of comic books, science fiction, and fantasy led him to the esoteric traditionNot many members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame are also recognized authorities on the western inner tradition. Gary Lachman is.

What if the patterns driving today's global instability have been repeating for far longer than we realize?I sit down with Alex Sachon, a philosopher trained in the social sciences who uses ancient philosophy to make sense of the rapidly shifting social, cultural, and geopolitical landscape we're living through. His work brings together esoteric philosophy, historical analysis, and a systems-level view of civilization to explain how we arrived at this moment.We trace how early exposure to Daoism and Zen Buddhism opened the door to deeper questions about consciousness, and how that eventually intersected with the study of empire, financial systems, and the evolution of power structures. His recent book, The Coming World Nation, outlines a model of social hierarchy and offers a revisionist look at the last 200 years of American history.If you've ever felt like something about the current system doesn't add up, but couldn't quite articulate why, this conversation helps connect those dots. It's especially relevant for people who question mainstream narratives, think in systems, and want a deeper framework for understanding where we might be headed next.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[07:26] Why humans keep choosing rulers, even when it destroys them[17:02] The one thing keeping the masses from organizing against the elite[28:44] Soft power, hard control, how empire stopped needing soldiers[40:38] Free energy, anti-gravity, and why even the ruling class was kept in the dark[01:01:50] What's really behind UFO disclosure, and who's engineering it[01:19:04] Atlantis, astrology, and a 25,000-year pattern we're living through today[01:35:39] Karma, cosmic justice, and why the elite's arrogance is already their punishment[01:43:41] What you bring with you when you die, and how psychedelics show you first[01:53:12] Shakespeare, Masonry, and a secret lineage hiding in plain sight[02:21:51] Philosophy, science, religion; why all three collapse without each otherFull show notes at https://lukestorey.com/wisdomResources Mentioned:Read: Tao Te Ching by Laozi | BookThe Century of the Self | IMDb Westworld | IMDbCarl Jung, Stanislav Grof, and the Science of the Soul by Sachon, A. | Article Read: The Collected Works of C.

In this episode, I sit down with researcher, writer, and longtime esoteric insider... Ronnie Pontiac. We explore his latest book, 'The Rosicrucian Counterculture: The Origins and Influence of the Invisible Society'. We journey into the hidden current of Rosicrucianism flowing through the early modern world, examining how this mysterious “invisible society” shaped the lives and ideas of figures like John Dee, Robert Fludd, René Descartes, Elias Ashmole, and many others. Ronnie reveals how the esoteric court of Rudolf II became a crucible for magic, science, and prophecy, and how the ambitions of Frederick and Elizabeth helped spark the Thirty Years' War through a strange fusion of politics and occult vision. He also discusses how the Rosicrucians can be seen as the original counterculture, rooted in the Orphic traditions of ancient Greece and influencing generations of seekers, mystics, and visionaries ever since. As the episode continues, we explore the roots of the many expressions of the Rosicrucian energy, throughout various forms and times.We also dive into Ronnie's personal experiences studying with Manly P. Hall, including some remarkable insights he received about what he calls the Rosicrucian frequency and how these teachings operate as a living stream of consciousness rather than just a historical movement. Ronnie makes the case that Rosicrucianism was not merely a secret society but a transformative worldview that helped catalyze the shift from medieval consciousness into the modern age.From there, we explore how these underground ideas continue to echo today, shaping modern occult revivalism, pop culture symbolism, and even the psychedelic counterculture's ongoing quest for hidden knowledge and inner transformation. Drawing on his years working alongside Manly P. Hall, Ronnie offers a rare insider perspective on the enduring legacy of esoteric philosophy and the provocative question of whether invisible societies still help guide the evolution of human consciousness from behind the veil.Ronnie Pontiac Bio:Ronnie Pontiac worked as Manly P.

85: Rosicrucian American Order Part I: Origins of the Rosy Cross - Rosicrucianism is a spiritual and cultural movement influenced by Esoteric Christianity and Hermeticism that arose in early modern Europe in the early 17th century after the publication of several texts announcing to the world a new secret society. Rosicrucianism is symbolized by the Rose Cross or Rosy Cross. But what is its influence on the creation of the United States of America?Walk with Joel through the dark corridors of the origins of Rosicrucianism as he discovers the beginnings of this mysterious secret society. First, he looks at Manly P. Hall's “The Secret Destiny of America” and what it has to say about America being the focal point of esoteric free thinking. He then looks at two of the main contributors to the Rosy Cross, Sir Francis Bacon and John Dee, and if they had more to do with the reorganization of the modern structure of the fraternity. Finally, Joel looks at Fama Fraternitatis Rosae Crucis, Confessio Fraternitatis and The Chymical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreuz, the three manuscripts that appear in the early 1600s and who were the hidden writers behind them.Merchandise: https://freetherabbits.myshopify.comBuy Me A Coffee: DonateFollow: Website | Instagram | X | FacebookWatch: YouTube | RumbleMusic: YouTube | Spotify | Apple Music Films: https://merkelfilms.com Email: freetherabbitspodcast@gmail.comDistributed by: merkel.mediaIntro Music:Joel Thomas – Free The RabbitsYouTube | Spotify | Apple MusicOutro Music:Joel Thomas – Imago DeiYouTube | Spotify | Apple Music

In this book, Ronnie Pontiac shows how Rosicrucianism's underground influence in the early-modern period continues to the present, providing the important historical context of this invisible society.Pontiac looks at the esoteric culture around Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II and his court, including figures like John Dee, Tycho Brahe, and Rabbi Loew, the legendary creator of the Golem of Prague. Despite occultists' fascination with Rudolf 's successors, Frederick and Elizabeth, at the start of the Thirty Years' War—and Rosicrucian efforts to make Frederick the first Protestant Holy Roman Emperor—the esoteric renaissance in Bohemia was short-lived. However, this wasn't the end of Rosicrucianism.Pontiac explores the movement's impact on Oliver Cromwell and the English Revolution as well as individuals such as Robert Fludd, René Descartes, Elias Ashmole, Moritz the Learned, Paracelsus, and William Shakespeare. He then details the movement's arrival in the New World, including the Rosicrucian activities of Connecticut's alchemist governor, John Winthrop the Younger. Looking to the present, Pontiac shows how both pop culture and the modern psychedelic counterculture are informed by Rosicrucian ideas, showing the enduring legacy of this esoteric movement.Ronnie Pontiac worked as Manly P.

In today's episode we begin a six-part series that investigates the topic of astrology, which features me reading aloud and commenting upon a 6-chapter manuscript that Hall published in 1971 called The Philosophy of Astrology. This series follows the theme of our previous episodes in the “Monday P. Hall Mondays” series, which also considered the topic of astrology, viewing it from various angles. (Note: I'm now keeping a list of the Manly Hall Mondays episodes here). In this episode, we look at chapter one from Hall's booklet, which is titled “Esoteric Astrology as a Philosophy Which Sets Forth Intellectual and Moral Relations.” Basically, it introduces the fundamentals of how esoteric philosophy approaches the subject of astrology. In his teachings, Hall emphasizes Ptolemy's geocentric mandala of the solar system as a visual metaphor of astrology's core symbolism, with the image's various components pertaining to the fundamental principles involved in (Western) astrological analysis. As we go through this chapter (and the series as a whole), keep this diagram handy as a reference tool. Note: This episode I am sharing openly on the podcast, but the rest of the episodes in this series will be part of my Manly Hall Mondays series for paid subscribers. Thanks for your support!Table of Contents1. Introduction & Overview (0:00 - 2:45)Welcome and introduction to the Manly P.

The Ancient Sciences & Esoteric Tradition (2:45 - 12:00)Discussion of the five great ancient sciences (astrology, medicine, mathematics, music, architecture), their origins, and how they were protected by mystery schools before becoming profaned.3. Geocentric vs. Heliocentric Systems (12:00 - 15:00)Explanation of why the geocentric model is used in esoteric astrology—not as a physical diagram but as a psychological/spiritual mandala representing the “world” (complete nature of creation).4. The Three-Part Structure: Spirit, Soul, Body (15:00 - 30:00)Deep dive into the Ptolemaic geocentric model showing three zodiacs (Prima Mobile, intellectual sphere, firmament), seven planetary orbits, and four elements—representing how spiritual energy flows from stars through planets into matter.5. Symbolism & Sacred Numbers (30:00 - 34:47)Exploration of how this cosmic structure appears in various religious traditions (Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam) and the significance of sacred numbers (7, 10, 12, 13) in the planetary system.Tabled of Contents:1.

Rosicrucian Origins with Ronnie Pontiac Ronnie Pontiac was the personal research assistant for Manly P. Hall at the Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles. He is author of American Metaphysical Religion: Esoteric and Mystical Traditions of the New World. He is coauthor with Tamra Lucid of The Magic of the Orphic Hymns: A New Translation for the Modern Mystic. He explores the true origins of Rosicrucianism, arguing that the famous manifestos were a radical literary and cultural intervention rather than an ancient secret order. Pontiac situates their emergence within the religious, political, and intellectual upheavals of 17th-century Europe, particularly during the Thirty Years' War. Ronnie reframes Rosicrucianism as a decentralized countercultural movement that spread ideas through symbolism, imagination, and culture rather than hierarchy or initiation. 00:00:01 Introduction: Rosicrucian origins and misconceptions 00:09:38 Religious conflict and the Holy Roman Empire 00:18:20 Emperor Rudolph II and hermetic culture 00:28:22 The Rosicrucian manifestos and public reaction 00:38:33 Alchemical marriage and political mythology 00:47:56 Defeat of Bohemia and shattered hopes 00:56:10 Counterculture and horizontal transmission 01:05:48 The dangers of intellectual hierarchy 01:14:21 Living Rosicrucian principles in practice 01:28:49 Conclusion New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man.

In this episode, Brynn Anderson and I listen together to a rare lecture from the legend Manly P. Hall, recorded on December 22, 1985, before a live audience in Los Angeles, as a way of consciously opening a new year. In this lecture, Hall uses the turning of the season as a metaphor for the rebirth of light and life within each of us, emphasizing that every new year presents the same quiet invitation: to realign. He speaks of happiness not as something to pursue, but as a natural byproduct of alignment; when thought, action, and inner purpose come into harmony with universal law. Rather than urging external change, Hall points toward inner maturity as the true foundation for renewal.A central theme of the talk is light itself. Hall describes the sun as both a macrocosmic source of life and a microcosmic symbol of the illumination each person carries within. To "act as the light within" he suggests, is to live in a way that naturally expresses clarity, balance, and understanding. Over the course of his lifetime, Hall returned again and again to this idea: that personal growth and inner responsibility are not only spiritual ideals, but the real solution to our collective challenges.As we listen, Brynn and I take notes, and we reconven after to reflect on what we have learned.. This episode offers a different kind of New Year opening - one grounded in awareness rather than urgency, and rooted in the understanding that lasting change begins with alignment, as we step forward carrying the light we've cultivated within.www.prs.orgManly P. Hall Bio:Manly Palmer Hall (March 18, 1901 – August 29, 1990) was a renowned philosopher, author, and mystic who delved deeply into esoteric traditions and spiritual knowledge. Born in Peterborough, Ontario, Hall moved to the United States at a young age and soon became a prominent lecturer on occult and metaphysical topics. His curiosity and passion for ancient wisdom culminated in the publication of *The Secret Teachings of All Ages* in 1928, Over his lifetime, he authored more than 150 books and delivered over 8,000 lectures. His teachings spanned subjects such as Hermeticism, Rosicrucianism, astrology, comparative religion, and the symbolism found in sacred texts.In 1934, Hall founded the Philosophical Research Society (PRS) in Los Angeles, a center dedicated to the study of philosophy, comparative religion, and personal development. The PRS continues to preserve his vast collection of manuscripts and teachings.Hall's work has had a lasting impact on those seeking spiritual growth, often serving as a bridge between modern spiritual seekers and ancient wisdom traditions. Despite passing away in 1990 under mysterious circumstances, Hall's influence remains significant among students of esoteric and philosophical studies. Hosted on Acast.

Dear Friend, In this powerful and far-reaching episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with writer, historian, musician, and esoteric scholar Ronnie Pontiac, one of the most important living voices on Western mysticism and hidden spiritual lineages.Ronnie's life was shaped by decades of work at the crossroads of hermeticism, occult philosophy, Rosicrucianism, and alternative American history. From 1981–1987, he served as research assistant and designated substitute lecturer to the legendary teacher Manly P. Hall, gaining unparalleled firsthand access to the inner currents of Western esoteric thought.  We explore his latest book, The Rosicrucian Counterculture: The Origins and Influence of the Invisible Society.  We explore the Invisible Schools, illuminating the mysterious lineage that has quietly shaped philosophy, science, art, politics, and spirituality for centuries.“The universal reformation begins with personal reformation. You cannot transform a society if you have not already transformed within yourself.”— Ronnie PontiacTogether, Yasmeen and Ronnie explore:• The hidden metaphysical roots of America and why much of U.S. history has been misunderstood, and how esoteric currents quietly shaped early American philosophy, science, and political life.• Rosicrucianism beyond the myth - Who the Rosicrucians truly were, why their manifestos electrified Europe, and how their vision of a “universal reformation” still echoes today.• The alchemical process of inner transformation, a rare, grounded look at how real alchemy was practiced and what its steps mean for modern seekers.• The Hermetica, ancient Egypt, and the metaphysical revival - Why astrology, sacred geometry, and ancient esoteric philosophy are resurging today • The battle between America's spiritual openness and its shadow - A candid exploration of Christian nationalism, pluralism, and the long-forgotten mystical side of America's origins.• A profound personal story of grief, love, and spiritual revelationRonnie shares the moving, intimate account of losing his wife and lifelong creative partner and the extraordinary experiences that unfolded afterward, reshaping his understanding of consciousness, death, and the continuity of the soul.Tune in to Gateways to Awakening for more conversations with leading thinkers, creators, and spiritual pioneers shaping the future of consciousness.

This episode dives into the lonely Rosicrucian childhood of Manly P. Hall, his meteoric rise in 1920s occult Los Angeles, and the creation of his magnum opus, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, which cemented him as one of the most influential esoteric philosophers of the twentieth century. Along the way, we'll talk about his years at the Philosophical Research Society, his legendary residence in Frank Lloyd Wright's eerily iconic and possibly haunted Ennis House, and the still‑unsolved, sinister circumstances surrounding his 1990 death and contested will.Edited by Max Holechek

A few years ago I stitched together this unofficial documentary on Francis Bacon from a longer four-hour documentary that came out about 20 years ago. Many of you probably haven't seen it so I thought I'd repost it. It discusses the secret aspects of Francis Bacon's life, focusing in particular on his role in masterminding the American Revolution. Manly P. Hall is also discussed, with Peter Dawkins (a guest I've interviewed on the podcast) also featured. What's interesting about the original documentary is that it features really good information and research, but it's made from the perspective of someone (Christopher Pinto) invested in biblical Christianity, who views secret America's history (as well as the entire subject of esoteric philosophy) with suspicion and ridicule. So when you watch this, you'll notice an ominous mood to the material presented, as if it was representative of something dark and evil. I of course don't view it as evil, which is why I re-edited a selection of footage from the documentary to feature only the aspect of its material that I think is solid. By taking out the original director's editorializing, there's actually a solid documentary here.One day I hope to find the resources to make my own documentary on this topic. Until then, enjoy this unofficial presentation. And thank you to Christopher Pinto for making the original source footage.00:00 Part 1: America is the New Atlantis14:03 Part 2: The American Revolution: A Rosicrucian Project30:38 Part 3 The Godfather of the Scientific Age45:44 Part 4 The Spear Shaker1:05:52 Conclusion Francis Bacon, Herald of the New Age

Clarita Villanueva was orphaned before she was teenager. With no one to care for her, Clarita began living on the streets of Manila, dancing for money and prostituting herself to degenerates. But things were about to get even worse for the poor girl… demonically worse. IN THIS EPISODE: It's been said that the average person walks past at least sixteen murderers in their lifetime. A chilling thought. But when you know that a serial killer is on the loose, you look at each stranger you meet as a potentially dangerous encounter. And right now in the UK they have a serial killer still at large targeting easy victims… the country's elderly. (UK's Senior Citizen Serial Killer) *** While the Spiritualism Movement caught fire in the 1840's with the Fox Sisters and stayed fairly strong for some time, after the 1920s most of the teachings and those soaking it in began to dwindle. Strangely though, there seems to be a kind of resurging interest in one particular man's writings here in the 21st century. Many are intrigued by the “secret teachings” of Manly P. Hall. (The Secret Teachings of Manly P. Hall) *** In May, 1987, Kenneth Parks walked into a police station and confessed, “I just killed two people; I've just killed my mother‑ and father‑in‑law.  I stabbed and beat them to death.  It's all my fault." Case closed, right? Well no… because it appears he might've been sleepwalking when he committed the murders. (The Sleepwalker Defense) *** When the body of Elva Shue was found next to her bed, it was assumed to be an accident. But her spirit refused to rest until someone investigated further. Her ghost was crying murder. (The Ghost That Solved a Murder) *** Clarita Villanueva was orphaned before she was teenager. With no one to care for her, Clarita began living on the streets of Manila, dancing for money and prostituting herself to degenerates.

Ochelli Effect 1-20-2016 Jordan Maxwell Re-ReleaseGoing Through My Archives I found a show I thought Lost and I think you will enjoy it as it aired then and doesn't seem to be out there anywhere else.Several Times a month I receive messages asking me about Jordan Maxwell and the Special Dogmatic Theology series of more than 45 hours of podcasts that were a subset on The Ochelli Effect were created because Jordan contacted me one day after experiencing some lengthy health challenges for months.He wanted to do a special project with me that would be the longest series he did with any host or producer because we had a relationship that was not publicly known, but was unique in that I was sincere in my appreciation for his work.and I always did what I said I would.That series was supposed to be preserved for anyone to access and many platforms since we completed it removed me entirely. I welcomed anyone who wanted the audio to post it anywhere they had the ability to. It remains accessable now on many channels that do not have a thing to do with meand I am pleased because this is what Jordan wanted and I was able to keep the entire series up on my chanels until after Jordan passed away.. March 23, 2022 my friend departed this place and I did a Tribute show for him a few days later.https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-ochelli-effect-3-28-2022-jordan-maxwell-tribute-with-jeffrey-and-aaron--49244546The first time we spoke in public on The Ochelli Effect is the audio from 1-20-2016BEHIND THE SCENESI had talked with Jordan Maxwell on some roundtable discussion in 2014 and 2015 and started speaking with him privately after an American Freedom Radio Marathon Fund Raiser in some months before this show. The other host who joined me for the chat with Jordan made a complete trainwreck of the interview despite having had Jordan as a guest on his show many times before. A friendship of sorts developed at that time.We had discussed an odd trend in The So-Called Alternative Media where Jordan had become an alleged antisemite after decades of influencing and literally offering the foundations of what became many underground and fringe media groups and productions. His friendship with Manly P. Hall and every major figure among alternative authors and presenters is in one way or another part of the story behind the rise of David Icke, The Ancient Aliens History Channel Era, and The Phenomenon of The Zeitgeist Series of Documentaries. P.S. Jordan hated no one.Somehow after being a central figure in the entire media sphere of what was Alternative, Underground, Alternate History, Independent Documentaries, etc., Jordan was quickly becoming a pariah after courts ruled his trade mark name (Which was a nom de plume) no longer belonged to him, and people who he had welcomed into his life stole materials and his personal research to reap the benefits of publishing works that they originally befriended Jordan to learn about.Frankly broke, and somewhat broken by betrayal, he found himself outcast in the community that owed it's existence to him, and Nearly no one with his interests in mind would work with him as he was seen as a finished man who had become the thief and hater of Jewish people that some of the immoral and unethical critics themselves actually were. Jordan became my friend at this time, and for 7 years I was blessed to learn from him and help him as best I could to have his dignity restored and his rightful place as the intellectual influence he was recognized with the intent intact that he devoted half a century of his life to educating and waking people from their nearly sleeping state of ignorance about the grandest deceptions that the overall establishment prefers to a fully conscious and engaged human family.

In this episode of the Wisdom Tradition Podcast, I pick back up in my investigation into the emergence of technocracy and share a new excerpt from my book “The Coming World Nation,” which examines the issue from a new angle.In the first reading from this chapter that I shared a couple months ago, I introduced the concept of technocracy and explored how my take on it differs from that of every other scholar and analyst in the field. In my view, there are two dimensions of the technocratic movement - an original legacy version that is highly advanced in its understanding of Energy and Space, and a secondary version that is comparatively primitive, as it is locked on the level of scientific materialism.In Part 2 of this chapter, which I'm sharing today, I further unpack this idea, noting how technocracy has two distinct emergences: an original one that emerged in the late 19th-century (but which remains concealed), and a secondary one that emerged in the 1930s and which has evolved in time to eventually influence the rollout of the Great Reset in 2020. The UFO mystery is the best indicator we have that the first (and older) technocratic institution exists. The modern technocratic ideas behind Great Reset are completely ignorant of the existence of the science and technology behind UFOs, suggesting that there is a concealed aspect of the technocratic revolution that has not yet surfaced or been formally integrated into the global technocratic transformations now taking place (such as the rise of digital currencies, robotics, AI, and digital ID systems). When it does surface, the power of the science and technologies it possesses will transform the trajectory of the “Great Reset” in profound ways. Before we jump into this discussion in this episode, I provide some updated thoughts on the Charlie Kirk assassination and also introduce a new book on Manly P. Hall titled “10 Essential Lectures by Manly P. Hall: Abridged, Annotated, and with Commentary” (which is now available on Amazon; see my website www.alexsachon.com for the link).Table of Contents:00:00 - Introduction and Summary of My Theory about the “Technocratic Superstate”06:15 - Updated Thoughts on the Charlie Kirk Assassination13:16 - New Book Announcement: 10 Essential Lectures by Manly P Hall17:25 - The Twin Origins of Technocracy

In this solo lecture episode, I journey into the luminous teachings of Manly P. Hall as we listen together to a rare recording from September 17, 1961. This lecture titled, 'Cosmic Mind in Action: Adjusting Personal Consciousness to Divine Purpose', is a transmission of higher wisdom -- an exploration of the universal, spiritual mind that exists as the silent foundation beneath all creation. This field of infinite intelligence is not somewhere “out there,” but alive within each of us, waiting to be recognized and remembered.Through his words, Hall illuminates a truth both simple and profound: the evolution of our consciousness does not depend on bending the outer world to fit our personal desires, but on the inner work of attunement. It is through refinement, humility, and alignment with this greater cosmic current that we find our rightful place in the vast, divine order. An incredible recording! Drop In!www.prs.orgManly P. Hall Bio:Manly P. Hall Bio:Manly Palmer Hall (March 18, 1901 – August 29, 1990) was a renowned philosopher, author, and mystic who delved deeply into esoteric traditions and spiritual knowledge. Born in Peterborough, Ontario, Hall moved to the United States at a young age and soon became a prominent lecturer on occult and metaphysical topics. His curiosity and passion for ancient wisdom culminated in the publication of *The Secret Teachings of All Ages* in 1928, Over his lifetime, he authored more than 150 books and delivered over 8,000 lectures. His teachings spanned subjects such as Hermeticism, Rosicrucianism, astrology, comparative religion, and the symbolism found in sacred texts.In 1934, Hall founded the Philosophical Research Society (PRS) in Los Angeles, a center dedicated to the study of philosophy, comparative religion, and personal development. The PRS continues to preserve his vast collection of manuscripts and teachings.Hall's work has had a lasting impact on those seeking spiritual growth, often serving as a bridge between modern spiritual seekers and ancient wisdom traditions. Despite passing away in 1990 under mysterious circumstances, Hall's influence remains significant among students of esoteric and philosophical studies. Hosted on Acast.

The Axis powers of World War II tried to kill the Loch Ness Monster. (The Assassination of the Loch Ness Monster) *** As far back as time is recorded, mankind has had a fascination with Sirius, the Dogstar. But what is so special about it aside from the fact that it's one of the brightest stars in our sky? Might there be an extraterrestrial connection as well? (Why So Serious About Sirius?) *** UFO reports come in constantly to police stations and online sites dedicated to the subject of Ufology – practically on a daily basis. And many sightings are by people you would consider above reproach such as law enforcement, scientists, military, numerous sightings by pilots… but when you head out into space and see a UFO, as is what happens with astronauts' reports, that's something you take a much closer look at. (Code Word: Santa Claus) *** Jimmy Logue left his wife after only two years of marriage. Without first getting divorced, he married another woman – whom he badly mistreated, so she left him. But he had already started an affair with her sister, so he married her next – now on his third wife. He abused her as well. He was also a career criminal – spending half his life living off the spoils of his thievery, the other half behind bars when caught. So it probably comes as no surprise that he was suspect number one when his third wife was found murdered.

I've been in a pendulum swing of suffering and joy lately—and as ever, I hope what I share is a popcorn trail through the dark for you. Because there's always another side. This episode is inspired by a poem from D.H. Lawrence that's become a mantra for me: “Are you willing to be made nothing?” The Phoenix only renews when she's burnt to flocculent ash. Immortal bird, anyone? This is my unfiltered download on what it means to truly rise. I'm talking about sacred surrender, resilience as your true nature, why guilt is a pathway to innocence, and how even a day of crying in bed can be an act of devotion.  Plus, I riff on my philosopher boyfriends (Krishnamurti and Leonard Cohen) and my metaphysical bestie, Manly P. Hall.  This one's personal and poetic—just how I like it. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: The Rituals Class – A free live class to help you choose—and stick to, better habits.

A chilling thought. But when you know that a serial killer is on the loose, you look at each stranger you meet as a potentially dangerous encounter. And right now in the UK they have a serial killer still at large targeting easy victims… the country's elderly. (UK's Senior Citizen Serial Killer) *** While the Spiritualism Movement caught fire in the 1840's with the Fox Sisters and stayed fairly strong for some time, after the 1920s most of the teachings and those soaking it in began to dwindle. Strangely though, there seems to be a kind of resurging interest in one particular man's writings here in the 21st century. Many are intrigued by the “secret teachings” of Manly P. Hall. (The Secret Teachings of Manly P. Hall) *** In May, 1987, Kenneth Parks walked into a police station and confessed, “I just killed two people; I've just killed my mother‑ and father‑in‑law.  I stabbed and beat them to death.  It's all my fault." Case closed, right? Well no… because it appears he might've been sleepwalking when he committed the murders. (The Sleepwalker Defense) *** When the body of Elva Shue was found next to her bed, it was assumed to be an accident. But her spirit refused to rest until someone investigated further. Her ghost was crying murder. (The Ghost That Solved a Murder) *** Clarita Villanueva was orphaned before she was teenager. With no one to care for her, Clarita began living on the streets of Manila, dancing for money and prostituting herself to degenerates.
