The Spiritual Studies Course is a 4-year long project to explore both individual and interconnected spiritual traditions throughout the expanse of human history. It seeks to do so in a sober and honoring fashion.
About the Instructor: Academically speaking, I began my secondary education studying philosophy, culture, and language at university in Athens, Greece. I completed my bachelors and MFA back in the states. Though my degrees spanned the humanities at large, my academic publications and conference presentations were always grounded in comparative religion, poetics, and/or historical, cultural analysis.
More personably speaking, I've held leadership roles in sanghas, a non-denominational pagan sanctuary, and then the crowning achievement as a Director of Religious Education for a Unitarian Universalist fellowship. While formal education has certainly assisted my acumen, my independent study and passion for the subject bleeds all the way back into my formative years.
i had dream was in place used to live at, and when went outside was candles in replace of all the lights infront houses. it was like mix od mmedeval and modern
EL means God, Elim or Elohim means Gods, EL is the Father God, the creator, but El’s sons were called El’s/Elim because there were El’s sons, so Saturn is not El the father, but Saturn is one of the Els, the sons of El the Father. Canaanites later called many Gods El.
I'm another assimilated descendant whose family had forgot their traces to the Sami people. While growing up I found a close affinity to the Hopi people and never understood how or why I shared a connection with them that existed outside time. Learning about the Sami has brought some light to the questions
Very compelling but the commercials are over the top. Too damn many. I'm tempted to quit listening becasuse i can't relax and just listen without constant interruptions.
Japanese Shinto myth says that Izanami (goddess) goes to their version of hell and when her husband Izanagi tries to save her, he looks at her even though she warns him not to, and she scares him so badly that he runs away and leaves her there so she’s angry at him (She scares him because she looks like a rotting corpse/zombie)
Fascinating isn't it. The Polynesians also have this story as well, and based on what geneticists say, the Polynesian's migrated from Asia roughly 2,500 years ago, meaning this story is at least that old. Where this story originated from, and how its diaspora spread is a fascinating wonder.
Jesus was a king of the kingdom of heaven of Odessa now day syria. After the emperor of Rome had died he was next in line because he was a direct descendant of Julius Caesar and Cleopatra. The aristocratic elite of Rome named someone else as emperor He then fought against them and lost. He was jailed too England in a private prison. But then escaped to Israel and became spiritual leader.
What was that new manuscript you were talking about? I’ve tried to look it up but the newest thing I could find from a Google search was Mathew chapter 12

I speak Greek?
Yes, I lived in Greece and learned enough to live, alongside studying the language for roots in other romantic languages. Unfortunately, since I moved back to the states I have lost alot of it, having nobody to continue speaking with really stripped it from my mind. I continued to study roots in both Latin and Greek and have talk such for a number of institutions. Otherwise, my familiarity with other languages have been on that kind of basis, etymological. So overall my comprehensions is fairly keen, but my speaking ability is most often challeneged.
Yeah there’s a bunch of channels that parrot mckennas pacing. It feels too on the nose. But the content is different enough that I don’t think im listening to McKenna, just his cadence.
The father of the resurrecting demigod is the great demon of time and his mother is GOD. The demon was created by God ( magical penis as seen in Egyptian myths, Phrygian myths ( Phrygian cap is phallic), Greeks )). God is a whore but it’s not a negative thing as without her fertility and virility no life would have been created. She sleeps with all of her creation including the great demon (AION,zurvan, Mithraic Ahriman, Cronus, Dionysus, Bacchus, Baal, EL, Nanna, Osiris, MIN, Amun etc etc) she also goes by many names ( Inanna, persephone, isis, Hathor, wadjet, Cybele, Demeter, Aphrodite, Amunette, Tanit etc etc)
The second time ‘round watching this, I was able to definitely pick up on/understand more of what I might not have caught the first time I viewed this. I’m personally a HUGE fan of the longer sessions & especially the cameo summaries at the end closing it all out. 😊 SOOOO much to take in. Something that I love [& will forever continue repeating] is how much connection there is to more Ancient Cultures’ belief systems & symbology. As well as the parallels to Animism, Shamanism, & Astromythology. The latter being SO immensely fascinating, in my opinion. Also, was very intrigued by the part of the conversation in the ‘raising of Lazarus’ section where Orphism & Metempsychosis were highlighted & how that found ties into all of this. Going to have to find & watch your earlier video on Orphism & the Cult of Dionysus now [don’t believe I’ve watched that one, yet]. 🥚🐍 Your Channel has enriched my mind, soul, life….BEYOND words. Truly an honor to be able to support such an incredibly passionate endeavor! Endless THANKS 🙏🏻🫶🏻✨
Religion changes as the times change and all are an amalgamation, what is the new sacred text called that you found about Jesus restoring an old religion? That would be very helpful for me aha 😅
Jesus is called a high priest in the order of Melchizedek. Melchizedek means "my king is sedek" or "my king is righteousness." Zedek means Jupiter. Jupiter rules the age of Pisces. Jesus baptized with water. He fed the multitudes with 2 fish (pisces). Jesus said surely he would be with us until the end of the age. Jesus is the God of this age, Pisces. The Creator has many sons. Each son has their turn on the wheel in the sky. They each have their turn to rule. Moses berated the israelites for making a golden calf to worship. That's because they were in the age of Aries, not Taurus. Taurus was the previous age. When Moses was leading them through the wilderness they followed a pillar of fire. They had the burning bush,burnt offerings,etc. The bible is full of astrology if you actually pay attention.
Lovely, yes, very astute. The line that always emulates this most to me is in Luke 22, He said to them, “Listen, when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters..." Very evocative of the coming age.
Always love your videos! ❤ Also, I’ve been learning about the Greek version of the Bible at Lady Babylon. He’s a scholar in classical Greek philology and pharmacology. Mind blowing 🤯
Nice, you doing Ammon U as well? Its great so far big props to Ammon for doing that. I literally came into the comments to ask if hes been watching Lady Babylon and saw your comment lol
@@davidcurry6422 I haven’t taken a class yet but I watch Dr. Ammon every chance I get. I really do need to prioritize better! Running a dog grooming business solo is hectic and I split my free time gardening and painting. Usually listening to Lady Babylon, Gnostic informant, Drawing down the stars and Mythvision. And of course this channel.
