This month, Daniel leads the guys into uncharted waters for the podcast…that's right, it's our first-ever episode about fish! The Great Lakes salmon fishery is one of the greatest angling spectacles in the US. Large predatory salmon, native to the Pacific Northwest, are stocked in the Great Lakes region to maintain a world class fishery and control invasive baitfish. The undisputed monarch among these stocked species? The appropriately named King Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). While they are fished for year-round, the action heats up when mature King Salmon run (well, they swim, but that's what it's called) up the creeks and rivers where they were born or stocked each fall. The salmon run attracts anglers from all over the country, fostering a multi-million dollar industry and countless memories. But what is with all the excitement? Why are Pacific salmon even put here? Dare we even ask, should they be here? In this episode, the guys venture to a popular salmon fishing spot near Lake Ontario and reel in the story of one of the most consequential actions in fisheries management history. This episode was record at the Burt Dam Fishermen's Park in Olcott, NY on October 8, 2024.Episode Notes Daniel mentioned the scientific name and meaning for the Coho Salmon: Oncorhynchus kisutch. But he failed to mention that the Chinook or King Salmon's scientific name, which is Oncorhynchus tshawytscha. Oncorhynchus as mentioned in the episode from Greek origin, loosely means “hooked snout,” referring to the “kype” these salmon develop. Tshawytscha is derived from a Russian name for the King Salmon, like how kisutch is derived from a Russian name for the Coho Salmon.Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) are also known as King salmon. Chinook and King are used interchangeably in the episode, as Daniel can't seem to settle on a common name he likes. As mentioned in the episode, “King” comes from the fact that this salmon species is the largest salmon species in the world. Steve asked Daniel what “Chinook” means, and he did not know. After further research, it is found that the word Chinook is derived from the Chinookan people. This includes several groups of indigenous people of the Pacific Northwest, where the Chinook Salmon is native. And what about Coho Salmon? “Cohos” is a word in one of the dialects of the native peoples of the Pacific Northwest with an unknown meaning, possibly the name for the fish itself. Depths of the Great LakesThe books the guys mentioned were Dan Egan's The Death and Life of the Great Lakes and Margaret Wooster's Living Waters: Reading the Rivers of the Lower Great Lakes.Visit thefieldguidespodcast.com for full episode notes, links, and works cited.

Prepare to unlock the secrets of the subconscious as we explore the realms of self-hypnosis and manifestation with the insightful David C. Olcott. In this captivating episode, Cathleen interviews David, the founder of Samurai Success and author of "Swords of Illumination" where he reveals how being in love can elevate one's potential and how rewriting your inner programming can align the conscious with the subconscious. Listen, as they explore the transformative power of resonance, the struggle of trusting oneself, and the journey towards authentic, purpose-driven leadership. Episode Timeline: 07:40 I had all this wealth. I had these riches…but I wasn't happy 12:38 Reprogram yourself by understanding your early programming. 21:07 Needed a push, the universe intervened, it was a big breakthrough. 26:30 Conscious role distinctions in various life situations. 33:33 Contrast and polarity essential for self-awareness. 41:57 Forgetting leads to experiencing ourselves in new ways. 44:56 Creative process: inspiration from source. 01:02:14 Transition from divinity to physical, finding balance. 01:13:12 Overcoming money programming by understanding its origin. Key Takeaways: David emphasises that manifestation is heavily influenced by subconscious programming, with only 5% coming from conscious thought. His self-hypnosis method, "I'm Studio," aims to connect the soul and ego to rewrite this programming, aligning the conscious and subconscious mind to manifest desires more effectively. Cathleen and David discuss the concept of balance and centeredness, agreeing that true balance in all areas of life is likely to be unachievable. Instead, David introduces a framework of ten different categories to guide individuals toward a more centred existence, focusing on a balance between divinity and physical realm beliefs. The importance of intentional identity creation and self-leadership is emphasised, alongside practical methods for changing subconscious programming, including hypnosis and NLP. Cathleen reflects on transitioning from seeking validation to embracing her role as a coach, resulting in a more fulfilling and effortless work experience. ABOUT David C.

ANGELA'S SYMPOSIUM 📖 Academic Study on Witchcraft, Paganism, esotericism, magick and the Occult
#theosophy #blavatsky #theosophicalsociety In this detailed exploration of the Theosophical Society and its founder, Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, we delve into the intricate world of esoteric knowledge, spiritual practices, and the blending of Eastern and Western philosophies. The lecture provides a comprehensive overview of the Society's foundational principles, examining Blavatsky's pivotal role and her influential works, "The Secret Doctrine" and "Isis Unveiled." Key topics include the Society's meditation practices, characterised by an active engagement with esoteric truths aimed at achieving higher states of consciousness. The incorporation of Eastern philosophies, notably Hinduism and Buddhism, is highlighted as a revolutionary aspect of the Society's practices. The lecture further explores the Society's approach to the study and interpretation of sacred texts, emphasizing the synthesis of diverse spiritual teachings. The role of esoteric knowledge and psychic research within the Theosophical Society is also examined, with a focus on the pursuit of understanding the deeper truths of the universe and the human mind's potential. The episode distinguishes these endeavours from the era's more sensationalist spiritualist practices, positioning them within the context of spiritual evolution and ancient wisdom. References from both primary and secondary sources, including works by Marion Meade, William Kingsland, Peter Washington, and others, provide an academically grounded insight into the history and influence of the Theosophical Society. This lecture is ideal for those interested in religious studies, particularly in areas of magic, esotericism, Paganism, shamanism, and the occult. CONNECT & SUPPORT

There is no question that modern Buddhist practice, especially in Sri Lanka and the United States, was heavily influenced by the work of Theosophy’s co-founder Colonel Henry Steel Olcott. Who was this Civil War era Renaissance Man and how did he influence modern Buddhism? We hope that by shedding light on his impact it may help open the conversation about Buddhist esotericism, mysticism and magic that seem to be muted in the practices and study of modern Buddhism, especially from the viewpoint of Western Scientific Materialism.

The Garibaldini- Italian Redshirts Explanation of Theosophy’s “Masters” Olcott’s descriptions of his meetings with Master Morya The death of Arthur Conan Doyle’s son and Spriitualism: It is often put forward that Arthur Conan Doyle’s interest in Spiritualism was due to the death of his son Kingsley in 1918. ACD had a lifelong interest in the mystical and paranormal. In fact his interest in Spiritualism can be dated as early as 1887 when he published an article in the journal of the London Spiritualistic Alliance. In 1883 he joined the thriving Society for Psychical Research. But Kingsley’s death from a long convalescence following a wound acquired at the Battle of the Somme in 1916 did appear to strengthen his belief in spirit communication and life after death. He believed that Spiritualism was a New Revelation sent by God to bring solace to so many who were experiencing loss. He began lecturing on Spiritualism in 1916 and wrote The New Revelation in 1918 on this theme. The Trickster and the Paranormal by George P.

Leadbeater who found Krishnamurti and proclaimed him to be the next Maitreaya. While he originally embraced this role, Krishnamurti rejected this call in 1929 and stated, "I do not want followers. My only concern is to set men absolutely, unconditionally free,” a stunning announcement by today’s standards for influencers and religious leaders.

Welcome back to ParaPower Mapping. We embark on a brand new series today—likely our lengthiest yet. A comparative paranoid analysis of the history of Nazi occultism, beginning w/ an investigation into Helena Blavatsky, Henry Steel Olcott, the Theosophical Society, their racist doctrine, & some truly sus & eye-opening connections. Subscribe to the Boston Brahmin Watch Premium Feed on Patreon: patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping In this EP, we discuss: Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, Ukrainian & Baltic German Noblewoman; her aristocratic heritage, including the von Hahn, Rottenstern, & Dolgorukov families; we play 6°s of Separation w/ Blavatsky & Pynchon, in part because Pynchon mentions Blavatsky & Theosophy in Against the Day & also bc it's fun; we talk Vladimir Nabokov & his nobleman father V. D. Nabokov; the Kadets, his Constitutional Democratic Party in pre-revolutionary Russia; the fact he was a deputy in the First Duma w/ Sergei Witte, cousin of Blavatsky & first PM of Russia; the possibility V.D. Nabokov was part of the delegation sent to negotiate the cease fire to end the Russo-Japanese War in Portsmouth, NH; we talk the assassination attempts on the both of them; V.D. Nabokov's likely "western democracy" backers & his émigré newspaper "Rul" in Berlin; bacterial meningitis; the fact that V.D. Nabokov's killers were later connected to the NSDAP via Alfred Rosenberg & Dietrich Eckhart; we talk Prince Dolgorukov's esoteric library, Rosicrucianism, & membership in the Masonic Rite of Strict Observance; we talk early visions of Ascended Masters; we talk a few different influences on Blavatsky, including Swedenborg, Franz Anton Mesmer, Thomas Lake Harris, & Edward Bulwer-Lytton; we explore the instructive & mind-boggling story of Henry Steel Olcott; the fact he was on the level; his early work as an agriculture journalist & correspondent for the NY Tribune prior to the Civil War, where he worked w/ Assistant Sec. of War Charles A. Dana; Olcott's service before contracting dysentery; his ascent into the War Department Secret Service Bureau, where he was made Special Commissioner & tasked w/ investigating wartime fraud by military suppliers; his close relationship w/ Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton; the fact that he volunteered himself via a telegram to Stanton directly, offering to help lead up the "investigation" into Lincoln's assassination two days after it went down in Ford's Theater; I'm not going to divulge everything here, you just have to listen to the EP, but he played a major role in some very sus c*v*r-up shit; the curious fact that he survived the war, when many people involved in the "investigation", like his higher-up Col. Lafayette Baker—Lincoln's spy chief—did not; his law career following the War; his spiritualist meet cute w/ Blavatsky in Chittenden, VT; the likelihood she had him made as a mark, tho Olcott didn't care; spiritualist seance routines; "apports"; Daniel Douglas Home, spiritualist to the stars & royalty; a breakdown of the Blavatsky & the Theosophical Society's racist doctrine, eugenicist beliefs, & "Root Races", setting the stage to explore its influence on various German ethnonationalist occult orders that led to the formation of the NSDAP & Himmler's SS; American influence on Nazi eugenicist beliefs; the quasi-downfall of Blavatsky; accusations that Blavatsky was in the "employ" of Russian Imperial Tsarist secret police; decent chance that Olcott served a similar purpose; their support of Indian Nationalism, which brought 'em into beef w/ the Raj, British, & Christian College; Emma Coulomb's blackmail of Theosophical Society re: her assistance in helping Blavatsky create "phenomena"; Society for Psychical Research's investigation into Blavatsky; etc. Songs: | Scott Walker - "Opening" (The Childhood of a Leader OST) | | Todd Rundgren - "Eastern Intrigue" | | Ethel Raim, Elizabeth Knight, and Joyce Gluck - "Johnny Is My Darling" | | Blondie - "(I'm Always Touched By Your) Presence, Dear" |
Anna Bonus Kingsford was at the center of one of the biggest controversies in the Theosophical Society during Helena Blavatsky's lifetime. Arguing that Christian occultism was more accessible to a Western audience than the Hindu and Buddhist version Blavatsky had come to prefer, she threatened to split the London Lodge in half. To hold things together literally and figuratively, Blavatsky and Olcott had to make an emergency visit back from Adyar, India to London to quell the conflict brewing among London's theosophists—some of the most influential theosophists of the nineteenth century. Advocate for vegetarianism, enemy of scientists who performed experiments on live animals, and one of the most visionary Christian occultists of the occult revival; Anna Kingsford is a woman you may not have known about but she very much deserves the opportunity to share her occult confession with you.
