Tobias Churton

Tobias Churton, a leading scholar of Western esotericism and author of The Invisible History of the Rosicrucians, dives into the elusive world of the Rosicrucians. He explores their origins, the myth versus truth in occult traditions, and how early figures like Paracelsus influenced their philosophy. Churton also discusses the manifestos as a 'serious joke' aimed at provoking reform, and the psychological allure of a guiding secret society. His insights clarify the distinction between myth and the spiritual essence behind the Rosicrucian legacy.
