Really enjoyed this, helped clarify alot of ideas regarding the intersection between philosophy, bitcoin and economics!

I just finished reading this book in swedish! I agrre with this comment from a goodreads review: ”he puts all other writers to shame”

When I first read this book a few years ago, I couldn't help but imagine the commentator as Nassim Taleb

greatest historian i know and im using his Hero book for our next comic on roman history

Thanks for the talk. 'Small is Beautiful' had a big impact on me. Seems even more relevant today.

Good discussion. Thanks!

Great review. I just reread The Golem after decades and it is like the first time all over again. Meyrink was always a favourite of mine and this book made me travel to Prague a soon as borders opened.

It's a great book, very entertaining and fun to read.

I am reading The Golem now and found this very helpful. I bought it years ago when traveling in Europe. Not sure if I bought in Prague, but I might have. It was published by Vitalis and the translation is by Isabel Cole. I do not usually read occult/mysticism works, but by a weird coincidence I am also reading The Drowned by Ravanipour, an Iranian author. Anyone into mysticism should check it out. It is filled with mermaids, but not the friendly kind.

Started reading on the internet archive before I finished your review. The part about Meroe turning the man into a beaver cause he would then bite his balls off! Hilarious! Have you read 'The Decameron' by Giovanni Boccaccio? I'm reading it now and had a similar reaction to it. It opens with a description of Florence during the Bubonic Plague that, as you say, feels very contemporaneous.

What a title.

They sure don't write erotica like they used to!

why do yt automatically hides my replies? everyday im becoming more m(i)serable.

Thank you!

I’ve seen next to nothing on Leopardi in English so this is well worth the wait….

This might be good. Gonna give it a listen, later

Cioran finds liberation in failure...in losing. He reminds me of the Buddhist saying, "If you find yourself in hell, stay there."

omg! I loved the Princess Bride

أعظم فيلسوف في تاريخ البشرية قاطبة وأعظم يهودي عرفه التاريخ

He sounds like Ron jonson....oddly

Thank you!

Great introduction of Steiner’s perspective on the mission of the Celtic/Germanic folk soul

According to my teacher John Barnwell, Steiner refused a meeting with Gurdjieff. I’m more of a Steiner adherent, but I’m also a fan of Gurdjieff’s work.

Hardly. Cliff has infinitely more charisma than everyone on hermetix combined I love hermetix subject matter but they still somehow manage to make the most incredible metaphysical or occult discussions a pointlessly academic slog... his voice could put meth to sleep That said, I'm a subscriber and am not made of meth so I really do appreciate everything they post❤

I love BTF! That said I’ve had some cracking recommendations from this channel….Im waiting for Gass’ “The Tunnel” from Hermitix….

One of the banes of the internet: the amount of inane, bland quotes purporting to be from Emerson… as if he worked for Hallmark Cards. People need an education in hearing the real voice of Emerson; maybe books like this will help.

Salvador Dali seems to have understood what Jung was implying. The crucifixion of Christ and “what Christ ‘is’” is a tesseract. See Dali’s work “Corpus Hypercubus”. This is, at least, another crucial entry point. Jesus Christ may have been a historical event, but essentially it is only a focal point event. Christ is always happening through time and is only competed in “the fruition of time”, hence it is incomprehensible to beings such as we are except as a symbol. Possibly all the great symbols and archetypes are tesseracts. The 2d cross is essentially a symbol that is made much more accurate with the tesseract version. The cross is the way because it represents the god imago, in Jung this point is indistinguishable from your own center of being. Jung goes to great pains to say it is indistinguishable and that it is not the same necessarily “not a provable fact”. The method of the cross is to establish a point of reference that pulls one towards this center of the God imago by resolution of the opposites. The way the opposites are joined is by realizing they are one energy, resolution of which is symbolized by the Uroboros, in alchemy, by Mercurius. There is so much more to this but I can’t summarize it here. Read Jung because he explains all of this and much more. Not specifically the tesseract, but I believe he describes this and how it works and what it means.

A lot of the answers to the questions in the podcast are very superficial. Jung himself provides much better answers to many of these questions in his works. This is not the space for it, but those answers could be directly quoted in response to these questions. The best answer from the podcast,that is actually accurate, is that Jung believed that many of the unresolved questions in Christianity are addressed in the Alchemical tradition. Not provided, but critical to evaluate is this discussion is his views on the newer Catholic dogma of the Assumption. Jung also states multiple times in various works that he doesn’t believe westerners should adopt other religious traditions when they do not even understand Christianity. He also states that his work might lead a person back to Christianity.

Excellent discussion, very informative and encitful, thank you. ❤

Leopardi works are an eternal spasm of pain.

He wasn’t wrong about them!!! “You can’t get rid of the id from the yid”

Interesting

I don't even know what people are talking about when they talk about "God". Are you saying the universe is specifically interested in humans?

Cioran ! Legend . Modern gnostic ! 🤘

Jung: wholeness Christ: holiness

The founder of the Theosophical Society, Helena Blavatsky, towards the end of her life published an essay 'Black Magic in Science' defending Mesmer against the orthodox view of Science

thx mr lusenksy..but cant disagree more...jung also inherited Scottish rites the highest level of freemasonry and spiritualism. You forget that..he only appealed occasional to Christianity to maintain a respectable facade...the point of origin of the red book is not Christianity its teutonic German aryanism..in fact the red book is a name of a masonic book given to the highest level initatiate..the black book is the so called unwritten book of the yezidi stan worshippers ..red book is just a manual to revive the pagan gods that were kept at bay by christ and the saints for 2000 years..gog and magog/ktulu/awaiys have been summoned..

This was great

Data currently sits on the throne. The problem that I have with viewing Christianity through the lens of psychology is that it’s psychology as a whole that needs to sit on the couch while God analyses. God is not a tool and thus cannot be an idol. Psychology is only a tool and Europeans in their hubris have very subtly placed gnosis above God by way of analysis. This technique obsession is the core of the problem which Christian faith demands one forgoes in the belief of Jesus as messiah and saviour of mankind. It’s an idea that thrusts one beyond the ability to analyze. It’s too much to comprehend and is, as a result awe inspiring and worthy of worship. The need to “understand” is the core of rational materialist neurosis. It’s a type of suicide that produces material hallucinations we consider progress. Really, they aren’t much more than very sophisticated distractions. Our entire world is obsessed with them. We produce problems in our ignorance and then through our most subtle of ignorance remedy them in a way that marginalizes God. It’s pride. We want to be rid of God in order to be God ourselves, not realizing that by avoiding submission to God we forfeit that reality, which was always the intention for Adam. The tree of knowledge is not the tree of life. The tree of knowledge bares fruit of the most vast illusion. It’s the maya, samsara, ignorance. Imagine, to have paradise given to you by birth and to throw it away for the hope of paradise. This is the human condition. It can only be remedied by humility. One must offer the desire to know on the altar to God. Only God knows and only God can convey such a thing to us. In the deepest sense there is no difference and it’s a matter of remembering. May this all burn away, bringing us back home.

I have been reading Jacob Böhme and that is where I find a lot of similarities with Jung.

It's insane how many of these ideas were ones that were in my head these past several weeks, especially the end and the intersections with sufism. Actually was spooky to me lol. Great talk

It’s a cool channel that looks at Max Stirner then follows it with Charles Fort.

SPOILER ALERT: JUNG WAS A CHRISTIAN HERETIC I will pray for him but I cant do shit about facts
