Michael Tsarion returns in this episode to discuss the hidden lineage of western religion based on the research from his new book, “The Irish Origins of Civilization.”

Ancient trilithons like the one above are doorways through which the sun enters the world - a birthplace of light.

Michael talks about the worldwide megalithic, Druidic civilization, also referred to by some as the “lost civilization”, that built the great megaliths of antiquity in Ireland, Britain, Egypt, Lebanon, the Americas, Cambodia, etc. These enlightened societies were not divided racially, but along moral, spiritual, and intellectual lines. It is from these ancient peoples and their worldwide system of colleges and temples that the concepts of modern religion were taken.

Our conversation touches upon ancient Druids, Egyptian pharaohs, astrotheology, suppressed history, occult symbolism, etymology, mythology, and esoteric Christianity. Although we go into depth discussing these subjects, to truly understand the monumental significance of this all, read “The Irish Origins of Civilization.”

In this episode, Kentroversy returns to discuss ancient Egypt. Our conversation covers many different topics, including past lives, alternative history, religion, Hermetics, Alchemy, Tarot, and Magick. Although neither of us are “experts” in an academic sense with regard to egyptology, we have both spent years investigating the research available on the mysteries of the ancient world. Kent also shares his personal esoteric connection.

Of course, the architecture and craftsmanship has to be addressed, mainly the pyramids and temples. The appearance of high civilization followed by a descent in technology, architecture, art, etc. cannot be avoided. We also talk about The Emerald Tablet, the concept of Hermes Trismegistus, and much, much more.

As always, Kent brings interesting and original ideas to the table for this latest installment of our ongoing dialogue. Hopefully you enjoy our conversations as much as we do.

In this episode, we’re joined by student, teacher, and author Jason Augustus Newcomb. Our wide-ranging conversation covers many areas including Jason’s path, his work with “The New Hermetics,” magickal practice, consciousness, and his writings.

Among his newer books that we discuss are “The Book of Magick Power,” a comprehensive and practical guide to the study and practice of the Art, and “The Brotherhood of Light and Darkness,” an occult novel set in modern times.

“I’d like to see people who are magickal attempting to get along better with one another. Not necessarily working together in circles, but working together in harmony to create a Divine world here on this plane. And I’d like to see people being good to each other. The injustices of the world are all within each of us …”

In this episode, we’re joined by author Christopher Knowles. The discussion revolves around his new book, “Our Gods Wear Spandex, The Secret History of Comic Book Heroes.” We talk about the history of comic books and how the ideas contained and promoted in this medium can be traced directly to esoteric and occult concepts.

“The collision of science, morality, and magic is being played out hundreds of times a month in comic books and other media, showing us the implications of superhuman potential. Is this an unconscious form of preparation for an inevitable shift in human reality? Should we pay more careful attention to the visionaries and lunatics who anticipate the future in comic-book storylines? In that supernatural realm called the human imagination, comic-book creators like Alan Moore and Alex Ross may be time-travelers, forecasting the future for us and showing us the way. It’s funny how it all seems so similar to the ancient myths. The past and future are always with us.”
