*Note: there was some static in the recording. After a few minutes it mostly fades away, but pops up occasionally in other parts. I put a filter on the audio to help ameliorate some of the effects.*
Today I’m launching a new series called “Manly Hall Mondays”, which I plan to make a weekly series on my podcast/Substack over the next year. In each episode, I’ll do a reading of an article or book chapter (or occasionally a breakdown of a recorded lecture) drawn from Manly Hall’s momentous corpus of teachings.
This weekly series will be predominately hosted on my Substack (thewisdomtradition.substack.com) for paid subscribers ($7/mo), but one episode per month I will make available on my public-facing podcast.
In the first episode I read-through an article of Hall’s on the subject of astrology, titled The Star Lore of Babylon. It covers the essentials of the philosophy of astrology and also provides an excellent introduction to the topic of Astro-Theology, which posits that the great religious myths and legends of world history are all based on astrological symbolism.
* Also, I have a sale going on at my e-store, with books and merch discounted: thewisdomtradition.bigcartel.com
In today’s episode we conclude our read-through of Ch. 6 from my book The Coming World Nation, which is titled “Technocracy: Government in the Scientific Age.” The final two sections from the chapter we’ll be covering are called “Technocracy’s Hub-and-Spoke Model” and “The International Rules-Based Order.” The former discusses the idea that technocracy must be centered around a think tank governance structure, while the latter discusses how the IRBO has long served as a primary focal point of the technocratic revolution.
Also, I’m launching a fundraiser/sale at my online store. Hats, Shirts, and Books are all on sale, plus a new shirt featuring psychologists Carl Jung and Stanislav Grof. Please consider buying something to support my work!
