Episode 234: Dr. Enna Reittort: Matrix--Red Pill/Your World is Not What You Think it is/Religion as Deceit/Krivda, the Godrix Against the Matrix

Dr. Enna Reittort is a traditional cultural anthropologist, a linguist, a regenerative farmer, and a contemplative meditator.  She lives in a village in south-east Asia. In this podcast, we discuss her work Krivda, the Godrix Against the Matrix.  Krivda is an ancient Russian word that means "deceit" with a twist--the subtler, more pernicious connotation of "reality made crooked."  This word, and its meaning, underpins the discovery of how machineries of "religion" operate over a long historical arc of six thousand years, revealing striking structural and operational continuity from religions of ancient gods to those of the modern secular gods of money and science.  The new god of techno science seamlessly taking the succession of its predecessors all gathered into its fold, its dogma seamlessly taking over the well-conditioned mind and psyche of humans...Therein lies the "god-trix."

Episode 233: Jon E. Graham: Matrix--Blue Pill/The Illuminati/the Illuminati Egregore

Jon E. Graham is an award winning writer, translator, and graphic artist.  He specializes in books on Surrealism, esoteric traditions, and folklore.  Books he has translated include The Immaculate Conception by Andre Breton and Peter Eluard, Little Anatomy of the Physical Unconscious, and many others. In this book, we focus on his translation of The Bavarian Illuminati:  The Rise and Fall of the World's Most Secret Society written in 1914 by Rene Le Forestier.  Le Forestier utilized as much primary source material in researching this book as was available at the time.  Bavarian academic Adam Weishaupt founded the short-lived Bavarian Order of the Illuminati in 1776, mainly as a reaction to Jesuit stranglehold on education in Bavaria at the time.  An intelligent, but vain individual, Weishaupt's grand design didn't last more than 10 years. Yet the idea of the Illuminati and their efforts to sabotage the Church and other esoteric organizations planted seeds that still bear fruit today of a global organization with its tendrils in everything from the government to the stock market.   However, as pointed out by the author, the Illuminati couldn't keep itself secret for a decade, let alone for hundreds of years.
