Some discussion of the finer details of Spinoza, Esotericism, and Philosophy + Q&A, answering your questions on topics related to Esotericism or past episodes!
Your usual videos are great, but your livestream videos are outstanding! You really come alive when answering questions and I truly enjoy hearing you share all the knowledge that you've acquired from thousands of hours of reading and study.
It's always a pleasure to see such mastery of the minutiae of a subject and the fact that the subject is intensely interesting is gravy. BTW you should publish calligraphic copies of grimoires.I bet they would sell like pierogies.
Hey Justin, I just wanted to say that you are possibly the most interesting person I have ever found on youtube. I've been watching your videos for a few months now, and I gotta say that this channel is incredible. I'll be sure to become a Patron in the coming weeks. Greetings from Europe!
Please make the reading list! Thank you so much for all of your work. You are making the difference in my personal study and desire to study outside of an institution!
I don't have a smart phone I knew it wouldn't be a good idea. And I have a digital camera, separate from my phone, that I use for filming or photographing.
Your comment on Maimonides and how his writings, particularly the "Guide For The Perplexed", are esoteric, are spot on. On the literal reading of the Guide, it appears that Maimonides believes in creation out of nothing, and that God can interevene in the world, but when his views on prophecy, divine providence, and absolute divine simplicity, are taken into account, the literal reading doesn't hold up.
The two volume History of Western Astrology you mentioned might be the one by Nicholas Campion? It's on my Amazon wishlist... along with about a hundred other books.
This was the first live stream I've been able to catch. Simply amazing! Thank you so much (I tweeted it out). When you have a moment, can you post the name of that two volume astrology book you referenced?
I was looking for a copy of the kabbala when I got to san antonio. I found a book store in the mall and asked about it. The girl who helped me said, "you mean, satanism?" "Yes, I'm looking for satanism in the kabbala instead of the satanic bible, or Alistair Crowley, or the lesser key's of Solomon." I found a couple copies at the half price book store.
Is there a difference between Satan and Lucifer? Also, if one of them really intended to remove the great deceiver from the thrown before being cast out, do we have all of this backwards
In 4:30 he talked about urantia book and another book what is the spelling of the name of the book? The cc write it as “the ohaspe” but i found nothing in that spelling
I agree... we need to read about fascism/communism/socialism/Nazism and the other negative -isms in order to fully understand where they came from, how they evolved, so we can avoid future tragedies. When it comes to relativism, from the readings and studies on the subject, I see myself as cultural relativist. We are byproducts of our upbringing, environment and influences. Sure we can stand outside of all of that given if we are exposed to other ideals, ideas and influences... but by and large we are creatures of our environment. We are limited by what our culture and environment provides. For example, why are there third world nations without advanced technologies as the first world nations? There are still nations and cities on this planet without proper plumping systems, muchless have any access to more advanced tools such as machines and computers that could operate whole mega-cities and states. Are these people truly oblivious from not knowing there are better ways of living? Or are they limited by what they are exposed to from their culture, environment and influences around them? They aren't stupid that is for sure. They are just not exposed to that enough to adapt to that way of living. We are limited by what we are and aren't exposed to. That is why I like cultural relativism. It makes sense for me now with what I know at the moment. 🙃
Yes, please tell the Dalai Lama to stop throwing the term quantum physics into every other talk as if that’s necessary to show people who take sides in the science vs. religion war that Buddhism is valid.
Canceling fascist thought doesnt mean not thinking about it, it mean lets debunk their thought and silence them and not let them propagate and recruit but for sure make sensible debunking of their views available. If you look at lefttube most of what they have been doing for years was seriously analyzing and debunking fash though.

You've swiftly become my favourite channel on TH-cam! Keep up the good work comrade, looking forward to your video on Monsters in Marx
Marx and Gothic Horror and Monsters is such a great idea for a video.
Your usual videos are great, but your livestream videos are outstanding! You really come alive when answering questions and I truly enjoy hearing you share all the knowledge that you've acquired from thousands of hours of reading and study.
Love that you are willing to share more expansive knowledge on esoterica. Awesome!

Still hyped for the videos on yahwism

Hi from California
In 4:30 he talked about urantia book and another book what is the spelling of the name of the book?
The cc write it as “the ohaspe” but i found nothing in that spelling
My guess would be: "Oahspe: A New Bible" by John Ballou Newbrough
I admit... I adore my smart phone even though it is distracting!
Could you please later, talk a little about the autor from the 19 centure, that I got a enormus respect, call Eliphas Levi? Thanks
Livestreaming? This is going to be a good listen
River - yeah, going to start doing them twice a month I think. I have a blast and folks seem to like them. How you holding up?
@@TheEsotericaChannel I'm thrilled to hear it. I need more content lol. Also doing much better, thanks for asking.
@@TheNemeton Glad to hear it - let's stay in touch!
That's funny that you mention Marx and his connection to monsters. I've always said that Capital is secretly the world's best vampire fan fiction
^THIS

Are you interested in Chomsky? Language or politics
