The Secret Teachings

We once again, in this second part episode, join Andrew Cox, owner of Nexus Occult Books and Oddities in Tucson, Arizona, in the tarot room of his bookstore to provide a rational explication for the occult and all those things not necessarily considered as such but nonetheless falling into such a category; this includes cryptozoology, ouija boards, bibliomancy, general conspiracy theories that turned out to be factual, and a lot more.

We join Andrew Cox, owner of Nexus Occult Books and Oddities in Tucson, Arizona, in the tarot room of his book store for a remote broadcast about everything from grimoires and their coded language, to the occult influences in the architecture of Washington D.C., to the sacrificing of worldly desires in a process that involves the ritual killing of the ego - a sort of human sacrifice.

The Hindu goddess Kali shares a relationship with the creative and destructive nature of mankind, the masculine and feminine, and countless other gods and goddesses, including the Saint Santa Muerte. Her image is often seen as evil or grotesque, but this is a result of her fight with demons, destruction, and chaos. Her tongue is out in a humble way to lick up the falling blood Raktabija in order to prevent new demons from spawning. We find reference to similar stories of blood falling to sprout flowers or trees all throughout mythology. For example, flowers sprout from the blood of Attis and Adonis, a tree from the blood of Dionysus, a special healing plant from the blood of Prometheus, and yet more demons from the blood of Ouranos. Flowers also grew from the blood or nama sebesion that was spilled from the bull killed by Mithras. From astrology to microcosmic and macrocosmic cycles, we are looking at more than evil with Kali. She is a universal creative and destructive force that invites us to examine life, death, time, and reality. Her image is a combination of science, physics, mythology, and the like. As with Christ, who redeemed and washed away sins with blood, Kali purifies and cleanses by preventing demonic blood from spilling.

Author, and friend of the show, Leo Lyon Zagami joins us once again to discuss the ideological cult of inversion, which is present in every sector of our culture. From the purely anti-God and anti-American influence in Hollywood to the same found in our political system. Those with perceived worldly power fear the influence of divinity because IT limits their strength in materiality. This is why they seek to make the common person dumb and poor, to strip them of any potentiality and abundance, owning nothing and being happy about it.

On this special one-hour Friday broadcast, Mike D. joins us as a cohost to discuss the occult nature of St. Patrick’s Day. Although green is associated with the festival, blue was the original color of the Saint, whose real name was Maewyn Succat - blue was the original color associated with Santa Clause too. This is ironic since St Patrick drove out all the serpents from the Emerald Isle, i.e. a metaphor for the pagans and Druids, who honored nature in its personification as the Green Man. The very green shamrock, or seamroy (Celts), was a very sacred plant in Ireland due to its association with spring renewal. Perhaps a four-leaf clover is most lucky because the four petals symbolize the four elements and seasons, or their eight total notches represent the entire wheel of the year. Even the Leprechaun, or lobaircin, meaning ‘small-bodied fellow’, is equated to nature in the form of a fairy, sprite, elf, gnome, etc. These earth-dwellers have magical powers and protect with that magic their treasure below.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings--5328407/support.

The theory of 'panopticon' was developed by Jeremy Bentham in the 18th century, suggesting that people only obey the prevailing rules and norms when they know they are being surveilled. Now that we are aware that such monitoring takes place by the second, many have ventured to defend the watchers by swimming like a remora fish under a shark.

In nearly every zombie movie the military moves in to bomb and burn population centers wherein most of the ‘infected’ roam about. Be it The Walking Dead or The Last of Us, or a virus, bacterium, or fungus. But this never ends an outbreak, and it could be argued that the military makes the matter worse by killing civilians and destroying infrastructure. We can find an analogy to this within the way we treat the body and illness every day; bomb the body to stop an illness and ultimately cause more devastation. There is also a strange parallel between ancient priestly classes, who were often scientists, using fear and sacrifice to control the population by cutting out the heart, and how modern disease treatments target the heart - recently making it swell to the point of death. In fact, most diseases are as fictional in nature, based on exaggeration, fear, and dramatization, as are the former zombie movies. All of the coverage in both the mainstream and alternative media keeps us in a state of gast, terrified and confused. Dawn Lester and David Parker, authors of 'What Really Makes You Ill?', join us for a discussion.

In the first hour Karen A. Dahlman, author and ouijaologist, joins us to discuss the universally accepted concepts of our ‘higher self’ and the power of our heart, both in general culture and in theology. In hour two, author and Sedona tour-guide John Polk will join us to discuss his work with ghost hunting and ufo sightings. It is important to build our investigation into such things, using logic and science, while still considering the possibility that some mysteries may never be solved.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings--5328407/support.

Remote Viewing and Remote Influencing could be looked at as either science-fiction or fantasy, or both. But governments and militaries have attempted to weaponize these abilities for decades going back to Project Grill Flame. The ‘sixth-sense’ and intuition are likewise grouped together with science-fiction and the paranormal. However, all of the above are very much rooted in mainstream, contemporary science and physics. From changing nature based on observation to sensing beyond the physical, these para-psychological abilities are innate within us. In fact, Remote Viewing/Influencing is based on standard concepts of physics and intuition, beyond just a survival instinct, is an accumulation of ambiguous data, or patterns, gathered by the body over time and interpreted sub-consciously. Michael Jaco, former Navy Seal, and author of ‘The Intuitive Warrior’, joins us for a disunion.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings--5328407/support.
