IG: @thewisdomtradition Store: thewisdomtradition.bigcartel.com Website: www.alexsachon.com - This channel hosts discussions, documentaries, and interviews on the topics of esoteric philosophy, modern science, the history of civilization, current events, geopolitics, sociology, psychology, and more. 20th century philosopher Manly P. Hall's teachings are prominently featured; original content of my own is also shared. Drop me a line: alex dot sachon at gmail.com
In this 30-minute documentary, philosopher Alexander Sachon unpacks the thesis of his 2025 book, THE COMING WORLD NATION, which argues that cosmic factors are driving mankind toward a major transformation point - one that is set to reconfigure world civilization in the direction of global government, technocracy, and breakthrough technology.
Sachon argues that in order to meet the immense challenge that the present moment confronts us with, we must revitalize the lost wisdom traditions of the past and elevate philosophy to its rightful place as the guiding light of human society.

In this episode, host Alex Sachon is joined by Dr. Anthony James Hall, Professor Emeritus of Globalization Studies at the University of Lethbridge in Alberta, Canada. They discuss the new Trump-Iran Peace Agreement, with both agreeing that the prospects for peace in the Middle East remain grim so long as the Zionist faction remains in place.

In this wide-ranging conversation, researcher and author Jacob Nordangård joins Alex Sachon to unpack how technocracy is emerging as the dominant underlying trend behind the major geopolitical events taking place today — from the Iran War, to the energy crisis, to the rise of technocracy, to forced mass migration, to the revelation of the long-hidden UFO mystery. Drawing on his books Temple of Solomon, Rockefeller: Controlling the Game, and The Global Coup d'etat, Jacob traces how elite networks have been orchestrating these crises for decades — and where it's all heading.

This is an excerpt from the Killah Priest podcast, featuring Alex Sachon and Mitch Horowitz, where Manly P. Hall’s life, career, and teachings are discussed. The conversation covers Hall’s biography, his early lecturing to high-degree Freemasons, the PRS archive in LA, and the idea of enduring mystery schools tied to inner consciousness and a unified tradition behind world philosophies.00:00 Intro and Clip Setup01:03 Hall Early Genius05:16 Masonry Mystery06:58 Origins and Early Life09:40 Publishing Secret Teachings12:13 Where to Start Reading15:19 Beyond the Western Canon17:04 Mystery Schools Today19:15 One Tradition, One Truth
In this extended clip, taken from a recent interview on the Aubrey Marcus podcast, I unpack my grand theory about the origin, mechanics, and destiny of the American Empire. I develop the full framework of this theory in my 2025 book "The Coming World Nation." Copies are available on Amazon. See my website for a link:www.alexsachon.com
Is the Iran War a pre-planned controlled demolition of the failing Petrodollar system — and the engineered launch of Phase 2 of the Great Reset?
In this episode, Alex Sachon expands on his Substack article exploring the geopolitical, financial, and historical forces driving the current conflict. Drawing on the work of F. William Engdahl and others, Alex traces the arc from the Bretton Woods collapse and the 1973 oil shock to today's Iran War — arguing that the same imperial playbook is being run again, this time to transition the world out of the Petrodollar era and into a new technocratic global order.
Topics covered include the role of Zionism as a US imperial asset, the engineered 1979 Iranian Revolution, the deep state's relationship with the Trump administration, and what the Great Reset really signifies for the future of Israel, the NeoCons, and the American Empire itself.

In today’s episode we begin a six-part series that investigates the topic of astrology, which features me reading aloud and commenting upon a 6-chapter manuscript that Hall published in 1971 called The Philosophy of Astrology. This series follows the theme of our previous episodes in the “Monday P. Hall Mondays” series, which also considered the topic of astrology, viewing it from various angles. (Note: I’m now keeping a list of the Manly Hall Mondays episodes here).
In this episode, we look at chapter one from Hall’s booklet, which is titled “Esoteric Astrology as a Philosophy Which Sets Forth Intellectual and Moral Relations.” Basically, it introduces the fundamentals of how esoteric philosophy approaches the subject of astrology.
In his teachings, Hall emphasizes Ptolemy’s geocentric mandala of the solar system as a visual metaphor of astrology’s core symbolism, with the image’s various components pertaining to the fundamental principles involved in (Western) astrological analysis. As we go through this chapter (and the series as a whole), keep this diagram handy as a reference tool.
Note: This episode I am sharing openly on the podcast, but the rest of the episodes in this series will be part of my Manly Hall Mondays series for paid subscribers. Thanks for your support!

Welcome and introduction to the Manly P. Hall series on the philosophy of astrology, explaining the booklet being discussed and its importance.
Discussion of the five great ancient sciences (astrology, medicine, mathematics, music, architecture), their origins, and how they were protected by mystery schools before becoming profaned.
Explanation of why the geocentric model is used in esoteric astrology—not as a physical diagram but as a psychological/spiritual mandala representing the “world” (complete nature of creation).
Deep dive into the Ptolemaic geocentric model showing three zodiacs (Prima Mobile, intellectual sphere, firmament), seven planetary orbits, and four elements—representing how spiritual energy flows from stars through planets into matter.
Exploration of how this cosmic structure appears in various religious traditions (Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam) and the significance of sacred numbers (7, 10, 12, 13) in the planetary system.

I’m happy to share with you my recent interview with Dr. Mark Skidmore, an economics professor at Michigan State University who worked with Catherine Austin Fitts to investigate industrial-scale fraud taking place within the books of two massive federal agencies: the Department of Defense and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. They discovered TRILLIONS of unaccounted transactions, suggesting not only massive fraud but, at this scale, most likely also the existence of a secret parallel financial system, which finances the buildout of a massive underground complex of black projects.
Upon the publication of their research, the federal government responded by implementing a new accounting rule that now exempts federal agencies from disclosing sensitive financial transactions - a move that has rendered the US financial system completely non-transparent and unaccountable (and therefore, undemocratic)

Today I’m launching a new series called “Manly Hall Mondays”, which I plan to make a weekly series on my podcast/Substack over the next year. In each episode, I’ll do a reading of an article or book chapter (or occasionally a breakdown of a recorded lecture) drawn from Manly Hall’s momentous corpus of teachings.
This weekly series will be predominately hosted on my Substack (thewisdomtradition.substack.com) for paid subscribers ($7/mo), but one episode per month I will make available on my public-facing podcast.
In the first episode I read-through an article of Hall’s on the subject of astrology, titled The Star Lore of Babylon. It covers the essentials of the philosophy of astrology and also provides an excellent introduction to the topic of Astro-Theology, which posits that the great religious myths and legends of world history are all based on astrological symbolism.

In today’s episode we conclude our read-through of Ch. 6 from my book The Coming World Nation, which is titled “Technocracy: Government in the Scientific Age.” The final two sections from the chapter we’ll be covering are called “Technocracy’s Hub-and-Spoke Model” and “The International Rules-Based Order.” The former discusses the idea that technocracy must be centered around a think tank governance structure, while the latter discusses how the IRBO has long served as a primary focal point of the technocratic revolution.
Also, I’m launching a fundraiser/sale at my online store. Hats, Shirts, and Books are all on sale, plus a new shirt featuring psychologists Carl Jung and Stanislav Grof. Please consider buying something to support my work!

A few years ago I stitched together this unofficial documentary on Francis Bacon from a longer four-hour documentary that came out about 20 years ago. Many of you probably haven’t seen it so I thought I’d repost it. It discusses the secret aspects of Francis Bacon’s life, focusing in particular on his role in masterminding the American Revolution. Manly P. Hall is also discussed, with Peter Dawkins (a guest I’ve interviewed on the podcast) also featured.
What’s interesting about the original documentary is that it features really good information and research, but it’s made from the perspective of someone (Christopher Pinto) invested in biblical Christianity, who views secret America’s history (as well as the entire subject of esoteric philosophy) with suspicion and ridicule. So when you watch this, you’ll notice an ominous mood to the material presented, as if it was representative of something dark and evil. I of course don’t view it as evil, which is why I re-edited a selection of footage from the documentary to feature only the aspect of its material that I think is solid. By taking out the original director’s editorializing, there’s actually a solid documentary here.
One day I hope to find the resources to make my own documentary on this topic. Until then, enjoy this unofficial presentation. And thank you to Christopher Pinto for making the original source footage.
In this episode, I continue my ongoing series on Technocracy, which is extracted from my recent book THE COMING WORLD NATION.
The focus of today’s discussion is on comparing and contrasting capitalism with technocracy. In particular, I argue that capitalism and democracy are products of the pre-industrial and pre-scientific ages and thus require fundamental reforms before they can integrate science and technology optimally. The result of these reforms brings us to technocracy, which aims for a scientific, energy-based approach to resource allocation.
Key topics in this discussion include: the inherent inefficiencies of current economic models; the inherent shortcomings of bureaucracies; how technocracy emerges as an innovation to both; and how the true vision for technocracy can’t be achieved until the classified science held within America’s black projects underworld is released.

In this episode of the Wisdom Tradition Podcast, I pick back up in my investigation into the emergence of technocracy and share a new excerpt from my book “The Coming World Nation,” which examines the issue from a new angle.
In the first reading from this chapter that I shared a couple months ago, I introduced the concept of technocracy and explored how my take on it differs from that of every other scholar and analyst in the field. In my view, there are two dimensions of the technocratic movement - an original legacy version that is highly advanced in its understanding of Energy and Space, and a secondary version that is comparatively primitive, as it is locked on the level of scientific materialism.
In Part 2 of this chapter, which I’m sharing today, I further unpack this idea, noting how technocracy has two distinct emergences: an original one that emerged in the late 19th-century (but which remains concealed), and a secondary one that emerged in the 1930s and which has evolved in time to eventually influence the rollout of the Great Reset in 2020.
The UFO mystery is the best indicator we have that the first (and older) technocratic institution exists. The modern technocratic ideas behind Great Reset are completely ignorant of the existence of the science and technology behind UFOs, suggesting that there is a concealed aspect of the technocratic revolution that has not yet surfaced or been formally integrated into the global technocratic transformations now taking place (such as the rise of digital currencies, robotics, AI, and digital ID systems). When it does surface, the power of the science and technologies it possesses will transform the trajectory of the “Great Reset” in profound ways.
Before we jump into this discussion in this episode, I provide some updated thoughts on the Charlie Kirk assassination and also introduce a new book on Manly P. Hall titled “10 Essential Lectures by Manly P. Hall: Abridged, Annotated, and with Commentary” (which is now available on Amazon; see my website www.alexsachon.com for the link).

One of the most important scientists of the past 50 years is a man that no one has heard of - Adam Trombly. He was a pioneering physicist and engineer who followed in the footsteps of Nikola Tesla and designed a successful "over-unity", "zero point energy" power generation device. If this technology would have been allowed to be released to the public, the entire global economy would have been radically transformed. But instead, his work was confiscated and his research shut down by an invisible power structure (one that I call the Technocratic Superstate in my recent book "The Coming World Nation") In today's episode, I break down a number of excerpts from a 4-hour interview that Trombly did about 15 years ago on Spectrum Radio, where he talks about his life, career, and experience in having the government shut down and confiscate a breakthrough energy device he invented, which could have solved the world's energy problems. The information that Trombly shares about his life story offers us valuable insight into the underground black projects apparatus that underlies that US military-industrial complex. It is very hard to get information about this highly-classified black project underworld, with Trombly providing us rare and important details about it through his series of encounters with it over the years.Table of Contents:00:00 Introduction to Adam Trombly09:11 Adam Trombly's Upbringing and Father's Mysterious Death21:42 Adolescence and Star Child Program31:31 Military Industrial Complex and Secret Physics41:57 John C.

I’m excited to announce that I just dropped a new book on Amazon! It’s called 10 Essential Lectures by Manly P. Hall: Abridged, Annotated, and with Commentary.
In this collection, I have gathered 10 of my favorite lectures from MPH, condensed them, organized each into subsections, and refined their wording, while sprinkling in my own personal commentary along the way. Taken together, this collection represents the single best introduction to Manly Hall’s philosophical teachings now available on the market. I plan on making it the first in a series, so stayed tuned for more!
In this episode, I offer my take on the mysterious circumstances surrounding the assassination of Charlie Kirk, offering my "working theory" on what I think may have happened.

In this episode, host Alex Sachon critically examines key points made by US foreign policy expert John Mearsheimer in his recent interview with Tucker Carlson. This interview focuses partly on the current situation in Gaza and partly on the perplexing nature of the US-Israel relationship.
While Alex appreciates Mearsheimer’s detailed historical analysis of Israel’s motivations for its policies toward Gaza and his deep knowledge of the U.S.-Israel "special relationship", he fundamentally disagrees with Mearsheimer’s nation-state-centric approach and his emphasis on ideology as the main driver of U.S. foreign policy. Instead, Alex argues that only by understanding the U.S. as a global empire—driven by control, centralization, and technological dominance—can we make sense of its actions in the Middle East. The discussion highlights both the strengths and limitations of Mearsheimer’s perspective, offering a broader framework for understanding current events.
Table of Contents
00:00 – Introduction: Framing the Debate
03:32 – Clip 1: The U.S. Foreign Policy Establishment
Alex critiques Mearsheimer’s focus on ideology and the nation-state, arguing for a broader model that distinguishes between America as a nation-state and as a global empire.
04:34 – Clip 2: The U.S.-Israel Relationship
Mearsheimer discusses the influence of the Israel lobby and U.S. military support. Alex agrees with the factual analysis at the nation-state level but insists the real driver is the empire’s need for control, not just lobbying or ideology.
08:33 – Clip 3: The Two-State Solution
Mearsheimer claims the U.S. wants peace and a two-state solution. Alex strongly disagrees, arguing that ongoing conflict serves U.S. imperial interests, especially regarding the petrodollar system.
10:24 – Clip 4: The Greater Israel Project and Ethnic Cleansing
Mearsheimer details the historical roots and current execution of the Greater Israel agenda. Alex praises this clarity but adds that the American Empire’s structure enables these dynamics.
17:58 – Clip 5: Why Israel Wants Gaza
Mearsheimer explains the strategic and ideological motivations for controlling Gaza and neighboring regions. Alex acknowledges the accuracy of the historical analysis and adds economic and geostrategic factors.
22:57 – Conclusion
Alex summarizes the need for a more dynamic model of American power to understand Middle East geopolitics and global events.

16:57 Introduction | The Kali Yuga Reaches Its Grand Finale
Send us a text
In my last episode, I shared an essay titled "The Kali Yuga Reaches Its Grand Finale", which I wrote as the introduction to my forthcoming new book "The Coming World Nation". As I was doing research for it, I came across the work of scholar Bibhu Dev Misra, who recently published a groundbreaking study of the Hindu Yuga system called "Yuga Shift". In his book, Bibhu offers an innovative new approach to dating the timeline of the Yuga cycle and we discuss this in detail in a recent interview I conducted with him. In our chat, we focus in particular on dissecting the timeline and themes of the Kali Yuga, the "dark age" of the Yuga Cycle, which mankind has been trapped in for millennia but which Bibhu calculates is soon to be reaching its final end.
For more on Bibhu's work, see his website: https://www.bibhudevmisra.com/

In today's episode I do an in-depth breakdown of a Manly P. Hall lecture I've had on my radar for a long time. It's called "Magnetic Fields of the Human Body" and it offers a wide-ranging introduction to the role that the electromagnetic field surrounding the human body - often called the "aura" - plays in human life. It offers the key not only to understanding human health, but also human psychology, as well as the mysteries of astrology and alchemy.
The video version of this episode will be featured on my substack (thewisdomtradition.substack.com). Thanks for tuning in! And don't forget to check out my book on Manly P. Hall (available on Amazon).

Finally, the long-delayed Q+A episode! I begin with an update of some recent stuff that's been going on with me and then delve into listener-submitted questions. Thank you to everyone who wrote in! Here's a list of the questions I tackle in order:
John W.:
Is it reasonable that we are witnessing the fall of the American Empire? Or better the fall of the cabal?
Anthony S.:
Can and will what we today call esoteric knowledge be divulged to the mainstream and general populace so as to become common knowledge, or will this kind of knowledge always attract and pertain to a smaller but perhaps more influential niche target audience?
I’ve recently been drawn to read the Kybalion again; however, it feels like I’m reading a different book each time I go through it. I don’t see any of your teachings posted about hermetic philosophy, and am wondering if you have thoughts or lessons on it.
How does the advancement of AI, which has been rumored to be sentient, play into the future of our species? Are we in real trouble of a potential skynet situation?
What is your interpretation, or that of Hall’s if he addressed it, regarding why Pandora refrained from releasing hope from her box into the world?
What is the first question someone should ask themselves before going on the journey of exploring their consciousness?
Many of the esoteric philosophies refer to "the law" and I have a basic sort of level of understanding of what this means and represents, but I'd like to know if there's more info on this "law" anywhere that you know of that delves into specifics? Also, have you delved much into numerology as a study of people and their purpose according to Pythagoras' original concepts of numbers? Finally, jow has your own personal way of living and lifestyle been altered by studying esoteric philosophy?
I am confused by FDR occult/NWO influence. Do you think he was nefarious and working on behalf of the oligarchy? Also, why do you think Engdahl and other authors were not eliminated as a threat during their research? Seems like certain people disappear and others continue to proliferate information
(Sorry for time reasons I couldn’t get to your other questions)
How do you explain the extreme overrepresentation of Jews and dual citizenship Israelis within the United States Government? I agree that the United States has become a corporate oligarchy as you say so often but it still seems to me that there is something behind the scenes orchestrating much of what has occurred in the past two centuries.
Hey Alex! I've been trying to fit the Antarctic treaty to the bigger political picture but can only formulate well rationed guesses.Do you have content discussing the theme or insight what is going on there?

Today I'm excited to share my recent interview with Dr. Mark Bailey, one of the leading intellects and voices in the anti-vax, anti-germ theory, anti-allopathic-medicine movement that has sprung up around the world with force since 2020.
This interview is oriented around a detailed discussion of the deep-rooted scientific corruption existing at the heart of modern medicine. The COVID "epidemic" is referenced as a case study.
Mark frequently works in tandem with his wife Sam (also a doctor). Together they run a Substack, YouTube, and Rumble channel, where they post very informative videos breaking down various topics pertaining to health, medicine, and disease. You can follow them here: https://drsambailey.substack.com/
Mark and Sam recently published a book together called The Final Pandemic: An Anecdote to Medical Tyranny. They wrote it as an approachable introduction to the anti-germ theory viewpoint, breaking down the various ways that the scientific method is violated and corrupted in order to justify the fictitious "germ theory" paradigm, which the entire business model of modern medicine is built off of. You can find a copy of their new book on Amazon.
Thanks for listening!
In this episode, I break down a classic Manly P. Hall lecture titled "Learning to Know the Dweller in the Flesh". It's all about understanding the philosophy of the Self (or Higher Self), how it relates to the physical personality, and what we can do to align with it.
I start the episode off by reading a short essay I published a couple weeks ago on my Substack called "The Real You". If you don't follow me there, you should: thewisdomtradition.substack.com
Thanks for tuning in!
In my newest podcast episode, I analyze a classic lecture from Manly P. Hall titled “Armageddon: The War that Ends in Peace.”
The contents of this lecture fit right in with the theme of mankind’s “Fight with the Shadow”, a topic we have explored often in the various books and articles I’ve published so far on my Substack. For example, my most recent article and podcast episode on the WHO is built entirely around this theme.
Check out my Substack (thewisdomtradition.substack.com) for the written transcript of this episode, featuring both Hall's lecture and my commentary.
Thanks for tuning in!
In this unscripted episode I discuss a wide-range of topics centered around the theme that world events are indicating that mankind is being rapidly pulled toward an inevitable confrontation within the psychological force within himself that Carl Jung called the Shadow.
The discussion starts with a look at the WHO's new Pandemic Preparedness Treaty and considers that how this looks like the "final solution" for the aspiring health dictators. Other sectors of society are experiencing similar motions toward the final stage of various interconnected nefarious plans, be they the collapse of the energy economy, the forced migration crisis and "clash of civilizations" scenario, the deconstruction of the industrial food system, and more.
Towards the end of the episode I also give some updates on the channel and some new stuff that's been going on with me.
Thanks for listening, - Alex

In today's episode I'm sharing a recent interview I did with journalist Riley Waggaman, formerly of RT, who is based in Russia and writes critically of Russia's complicity in advancing the same technocratic Great Reset agenda that America and the EU - its supposed enemies - are also advancing.
So while on one level China and Russia are the espoused enemies of the West, on another level they are all collaborating to bring the world into a new paradigm of global technocratic governance.
In this interview, we talk first about his perspective of the Ukraine War from inside Russia, and then we move on to talk about Russia's complicity in the Great Reset agenda. I was surprised to learn that not only is Russia on board with the vaxx mandates, CBDCs, and Digital ID systems, but they also have their own version of a forced migration crisis going on.

In today's episode, I'll be investigating what looks to be a key pillar of the ongoing Great Reset: the weaponization of illegal alien migrations into the US, UK, and EU.In particular, I'm going to examine the staggering number of migrants from all over the world streaming into the US from its Southern Border with Mexico - an operation that is clearly being run and orchestrated by a coalition between the Biden Administration, the Deep State, and the UN.
In this episode, I share numerous clips from The Alex Jones Show where he talks about this engineered crisis. I find he's been one of the best sources for analysis on this issue (and as it turns out, this is a topic he has been on top of for over a decade). I also share and comment on clips from The Jimmy Dore Show, the Shawn Ryan Show, and others.

Hey folks,
About a week ago I had a long conversation with Anthony Hall, Professor Emeritus of Globalization Studies at the University of Lethbridge in Alberta, Canada. He is an expert in the colonization of indigenous peoples and views the ongoing Israel-Palestine situation in that light. He is also a frequent contributor to the website globalresearch.ca, which is where I discovered his work.
This interview follows up my recent article on 10/7 called "October 7th: The Fog Begins to Clear". Dr. Hall has several related articles on the topic that I recommend, which can be found on his Substack: https://anthonyjhall.substack.com/
Thanks for listening,
I wanted to offer some additional commentary on my recent article that takes an in-depth look at the October 7th attacks on Israel. The article is the first in a series and in this commentary I relate the 10/7 attacks and Israel's response to them to some of the larger themes I'll be discussing in those later articles.
Of particular interest is the idea that the Great Reset may herald a significant change in the relationship between the US and Israel.
You can find the original article on my Substack. A touched-up transcript of this commentary is also available there. It's worth reading.

In this episode, I revisit the events of the October 7th attack on Israel. The goal is to move beyond certain oversimplifications and mischaracterizations of the event that have become prominent. There is a lot more here than what first meets the eye.
The article can be read on my Substack: thewisdomtradition.substack.com

2. Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad: Uneasy Allies
3. The Strategic Objectives Behind Operation Al-Aqsa Flood
4. The IDF’s Counter-Response Killed Many Israeli Citizens
5. Israeli Intelligence had Foreknowledge of the AttackThis article is the first in a series. Stay tuned for the rest.
I should point out that in this article I revise some of my initial conceptions of the 10/7 attack, which I discussed in earlier episodes from late October.
I'm excited to announce that my book on Manly P. Hall is now available on Amazon in North America and Europe! (If that link doesn't work there's a link on my website: www.alexsachon.com.)
The book is a re-edited and reformatted version of the original series released on my podcast and Substack last year. When I originally wrote it, I intended it to be a book and to be read, so I'm very happy that it's finally available in that form.
In this podcast episode, I offer a summary and overview of the book, tell you what it's about, why I wrote it, and why I think Manly P. Hall is such a notable figure in modern world history.
For a limited time, I'm offering a book-launch bundle featuring a signed copy of the book and a limited-release t-shirt. My plan is to ship these mid-December. It's available on my e-store: thewisdomtradition.bigcartel.com.
Thank you for following and for your support so far. If you've been through the series already please leave a positive review on Amazon! That would really help attract a new audience to it.
In this episode, I interview UFO researcher Walter Bosley about the 19th-century origins of the UFO mystery. This is important, because when you move into this often-overlooked aspect of the story it becomes clear that secretive human groups and not aliens are behind the phenomenon.
Walter's book "Origin: The 19th Century Emergence of the 20th Century Breakaway Civilizations" was a big influence on my own work on this topic, which I covered as part of my "The Secret History of the 20th Century" series (soon to be released as a book).

In this episode, I continue my Gaza coverage by commenting on Col. Douglas MacGregor's recent appearances on Redacted and Tucker Carlson, where he warns of the threat of large scale war should Israel continue its persecution of Gaza.
In this discussion, I sample several clips from these two appearances and analyze them in depth. I also comment on a clip from Bret Weinstein's "Dark Horse" podcast, where he discusses the problems with the official story of Hamas's October 7th terrorist attack.

Substack: thewisdomtradition.substack.com
NOTE: I have since updated and refined my perspective on these events. In particular, I now I have better understanding of the October 7th attack and the various components of it. See my article/podcast called "October 7th: The Fog Begins to Clear" for more.
In today's episode I'm joined by Franklin O'Kanu, author of the Unorthodoxy Substack, to discuss the current situation in the Middle East regarding Israel, Hamas, and the Gaza Strip.
The discussion starts with a consideration of the immediate elements at play in Hamas's original terrorist attack on Israel and Israel's subsequent carpet bombing and ethnic cleansing campaign in Gaza. Then we zoom out and I offer my take on the larger geopolitical circumstances going on behind the conflict and what it says about the shifting circumstances of US empire.
This is a topic I plan on revisiting and probing further into in future episodes. For more background context, see my series on the "Secret History of the 20th Century", in particular the episodes/articles concerning oil geopolitics and the petrodollar.
In this episode I preview my new article called "The Destiny of Philosophy", which wraps up my multi-part series on the life and teachings of Manly P. Hall.

In today's episode I'm sharing a recent interview I had with Nick Cook, author of "The Hunt for Zero Point", an essential book in UFO research. In this conversation, we talk about the story of him coming to write the book, the existence of an invisible government within America possessing a hidden arsenal of advanced technology, the relationship of this secret government to the 19th century airship mysteries and the WWII-era Nazi black projects empire of Hans Kammler, and more.
Much of what we discuss builds on ideas and themes I've been exploring in recent episodes of the podcast. I hope you enjoy the conversation, and thank you to Nick Cook for taking the time to chat.

In today's episode we kick off a new series on the life and essential teachings of Manly P. Hall, the great America philosopher, sage, and initiate of 20th century America. In particular, our focus in this series will be on Hall's teachings about the current state of the world, the role the Mystery Schools continue to play in it, and what is to come in the new age we are, in fits and starts, gradually moving into.
In this first article of the series, I discuss Manly Hall's path to becoming an esoteric philosopher, and overview some of his early teachings on the inner structure of the Mystery Schools. I also discuss how these Schools fit into a larger spiritual concept of life.
In the article's concluding section, I analyze Helena Blavatsky and her relationship with the "Mahatmas" - looking at the production of her magnum opus "The Secret Doctrine" as a case study to analyze the archetypal guru-disciple relationship that characterizes the Mystery Schools.

In this episode we continue our mini-series investigating the secret architecture of US empire. Here we look at the hidden realm of covert black projects being conducted within the inner recesses of the US national security state. How are these black projects managed and by whom?
I argue that that a hidden scientific think tank is behind this black projects world. I call it the "technocratic superstate". In this episode, we examine the concealed structure of this entity, while also considering how it works, what kind of projects it oversees, and why it came into formation.
Speakers referenced in this video include: Steven Greer, Catherine Austin Fitts, Joseph P. Farrell, Peter Dale Scott, and Richard Dolan.

Hey everyone - in today's episode we begin the first in a three-part mini-series that investigates the inner power structure behind America's covert global empire.
What does the secret architecture of American Empire look like ? How it is organized? What are its major drives? How does it work?
These vital questions are ones I previously investigated in a long, 11-part series titled "The Secret History of the 20th Century" that I recently published on my Substack.
Now, in this new mini-series, we will be going back over key arguments from that work, expanding and elaborating upon them in further detail. More specifically, in this series, I will be sharing and commenting upon various video clips sourced from a variety of authors and sources, including many I cited in my long written chapter.
Sources cited in this video include: John Perkins, Catherine Austin Fitts, Chris Hedges, Zbigniew Brzeziński, Patrick Wood, and Noam Chomsky.

In today's episode we conclude our long, multi-part series on the secret history of the 20th century.
In this presentation, I use the UFO Mystery as a means to tie together elements from this whole chapter. Ultimately, I argue that this phenomenon is a component of larger initiation effort being carried out by the Mystery Schools. The "alien" meme is a component of this larger operation, one carried out primarily through the "technocratic superstate", which is the outer institutional vehicle the Mystery Schools are currently working though.
This is a totally original analysis of the UFO topic you won't see anywhere else.

Thank you to everyone who made it though the series! There are now two chapters left in this long book project called "Philosophy: Its Origin, Purpose, and Destiny". The next chapter will be called "Manly P. Hall: America's Philosopher in a Time of War".
In this episode we move into the conclusion of this long multi-part series on the secret history of the 20th century. I've broken this finale into two episodes, with a follow-up, Part 11, coming tomorrow.
In this episode, we track the development of the "technocratic superstate" within America, which emerged as a consequence of America harvesting Nazi Germany's Kammlerstab program after the war. What resulted was the formation of a permanent black projects empire in America, one centered around a central think tank, just like the old Nazi S.S. program had been.
Related to the existence of this technocratic superstate is a secret "black budget" economy, this being designed to funnel large quantities of funds into the black projects world.
In this episode we also discuss the caste system, and revisit the theme of the "secret destiny of America", something we've discussed at numerous points over the course of the various articles and chapters that have comprised this larger book project on the history, purpose, and destiny of Philosophy.

In today's episode I'm featuring a long-form conversation I recently had (on July 4th) with Peter Dawkins, the greatest living scholar on Francis Bacon and an excellent teacher on the wisdom tradition. In this episode, we talk about a vast array of topics in the field of esoteric philosophy, while also hearing about Peter's personal experiences with what he calls "Rosicrucian Consciousness".
This is a great conversation, very much worth your time.

p.s. Part 10 of my chapter on the "secret history" of the 20th century will be out soon.
In this episode, we continue our series on the secret history of the 20th century by examining events taking place in the decades that followed the conclusion of WWII. The significance of this period comes not from the Cold War but from the onset of the "American Century" that was taking place behind it.
The "American Century was the name that the elite think tank The Council on Foreign Relations gave to their plans for a global economic empire controlled by the American nation security state. These plans were formulated during the war years, announced in 1945 at the war's end, and swiftly implemented in the years and decades immediately following its conclusion: these being the same years when the Cold War was also at its peak.
As it turns out, the Cold War was as a mask for America's imperial campaign: it was an engineered "forever war" designed to justify the buildout of a permanent military-industrial complex. Concealed deeply within this compartmentalized behemoth, where secrecy and black projects abound, resides a secret think tank and R&D unit that is developing world-changing technologies of the nature few can imagine. The real purpose of the Cold War was to mask the creation of this secret scientific institution.
This is the thesis I present in this episode. Stay tuned to find out more.

In today's episode we delve deeper into the mysteries of World War II, investigating this time the secret weapons projects being conducted by the S.S. within Nazi Germany during the latter phases of the war. As we'll see, these black R&D projects included experiments into not only nuclear weapons, but also alchemy and flying saucers.
In our analysis of this topic, we'll be factoring back into the equation our previous coverage of the deep levels of corporate collusion that were set up before the war between American and Germany industry and finance.
We'll also be factoring back in my theory of the Hidden Hand - in particular, its grand strategy to harvest the Nazi's secret wartime research projects back into the US, thereby transforming the culture of the US national security state in the process. This, I think, was the ultimate goal of the war.
www.alexsachon.com
In this episode, we continue our series on the "secret history" of the 20th centuries by revisiting the thesis laid out in our previous article and expanding it further.
This thesis concerns the idea that behind WWII was a "game behind the game", one that involved a long-term quest by an unknown secret society based in America to establish a world cartel system, behind and within which it would preserve its monopolistic hold on the classified paradigm of physics research based around the ancient alchemical concept of the luminiferous Ether.
This article will be followed with a twin article, which will further develop this thesis, unpacking additional elements of this story, as it played out during World War II.

In today's episode, build off the discussion we began previously with our episode on Nikola Tesla, where we argued that a physics model based on Etheric Energy became classified during the early decades of the 20th century. Here, we will pick up that story and investigate the hidden role that this "classified science" played during the build-up to and unfoldment of the Second World War.
Along the way, we discuss the background collusion that was going on between German and American financial and industrial cartels before and during the war. We also discuss the Bank of International Settlements, and the role the propaganda has played in shaping our perception of events.

In today's rather epic episode, we pick back up with our series on the "secret history" of the 20th century and examine a new angle: the emergence of a secret science and technology research program in the 19th century based around an Ether-based model of physics.
Nikola Tesla, toward the beginning of the 20th century, was developing technologies based on a similar approach. Today, we no longer hear about this lost science of Etheric physics, and Nikola Tesla's breakthrough inventions have vanished, never to be seen or replicated. In this episode, we explore what happened and why.
This episode is important in terms of setting the stage for everything we will be covering in the future. It's a long one, but worthwhile.

In this episode we continue our series on the "secret history of the 20th century." Here, we examine the politics and economics of the industrial age and the energy industry it is dependent on. We'll also consider how the transition from the agrarian age to industrial age transformed the terrain of the ongoing battle in the West between democracy and oligarchy. Finally, we'll consider the necessity of petroleum to modern warfare and how this fact created the conditions for the rise of the Rockefeller dynasty within the American foreign policy establishment.

In today's episode, we conclude a mini two-part series on the topic of the "Shadow" and how it relates to the development of Western Civilization.
Here, we consider how the rise of capitalist oligarchies in Europe relates to the philosophical idea of the "Shadow". In particular, we look at the Venetian bankers and the Italian super-companies of the Middle Ages and consider how they symbolize the rise of a great collective Shadow Complex obtaining dominion over European consciousness.
Democracy is the "Hero" who must fight and overcome this "Adversary" or "Shadow". Consequently, true democracy cannot be achieved until this capitalistic oligarchy is finally faced and overcome.

In today's episode we consider the philosophy and psychology of the "Shadow", which appears to confront us as the manifestation of our own negative karma. This theme was not only explored by psychologist Carl Jung; it is also an important aspect of ancient religious myth.
In today's episode, we'll explore what it means and how it applies to our understanding of "America's Secret Destiny".
This episode is Part 1 of a 2-part mini-series on this topic of the Shadow; Part 2 will follow shortly.

In today's episode, we continue our series on America by investigating the story of the rise and fall of the Inca civilization of Peru.
Things begin with a recap of the "Cycle of the Arya" thesis that I've been exploring throughout this year-long book project on Philosophy. Then, we zoom in and look at the Inca as a case study of this larger pattern. We finish with a discussion of the psychology of race, comparing and contrasting it with that of "the nation".
As I argue, the democratic "nation" is inherently post-racial, as it is premised upon the mixing of races and the development of cooperative initiative. I explore this idea in detail in the article and in this podcast episode. Stay tuned!

In today's episode we continue our series on the "deep" history of America by examining the theme of democracy, which has been experimented with here in the Western Hemisphere for thousands of years before the time of the American Revolution.
In this episode, we explore how democracy existed not only during the golden age of the Maya, an idea we first introduced in Part 1, but also with the Iroquois tribe of North American Indians. Here, the sage and prophet Deganawida established the League of Five Nations, which emphasized democratic institutions here in North America one or two hundred years before the arrival of the European colonizers.
Stay tuned for Part 3 of this series, which should be following soon.

In today's episode we're kicking off a new series/chapter titled "America, Land of the Feathered Serpent".
The overall theme of this series is to establish a timeline of civilization in the Americas, beginning with the prehistoric empire of Atlantis and moving down through the time of the American Revolution - an event that Francis Bacon, the protagonist of our previous chapter/series, played a big part in organizing from behind the scenes.
The topic of the American Revolution is one that we will be revisiting in a later article in this series. For this initial article, we will be setting the stage for that later discussion by first examining the history of America from the largest perspective and greatest point of view. Here we will look at the transition of ages between Atlantis and the Arya and investigate how these changes affected the development of civilization in the Western Hemisphere .
After first laying out the main ideas of an Atlantis-centered origin story for life in the Americas, we'll then zoom in and investigate the ancient empire of the Maya as a case study of our hypothesis.
Stay tuned, this episode is a good one.

In today's episode I analyze a classic Manly Hall lecture on the topic of Francis Bacon's utopian short story "New Atlantis". This episode serves as the "capstone" for a 6-part series I just finished on the topic of Francis Bacon and the Rosicrucian Brotherhood. For links to all the articles contained in that series, see my website (under the "publications" section).
Show notes for this lecture will be posted on my Substack.
Thank you for listening and thank you to Manly Hall and Francis Bacon for revealing such wisdom to us.

In this episode we conclude our series on Francis Bacon. More specifically, this episode completes a two-part episode titled "The Four Masks of Francis Bacon", which itself serves as the concluding section of this longer chapter on Bacon. In the previous article (part 1), we looked two of the four masks Bacon used to conceal his work: William Shakespeare and Father CRC of Rosicrucian myth. In this current episode, we will pick things up by investigating masks 3 and 4: the Freemasons and the his own persona as English statesman.
Thank you to everyone who has followed the whole series. I plan to do a Manly Hall lecture breakdown on the topic of Francis Bacon and the "New Atlantis" next; stay tuned.

In today's episode, we begin a two-part mini-series titled "The Four Masks of Francis Bacon". These two articles, which go together as-one, serve as the concluding sections of an overall six-part series/chapter on Sir Francis Bacon.
The theme of this article is to investigate four different "fronts" or "masks" that Francis Bacon utilized in order to covertly pursue his secret mission for world reformation. In this first article of the two-article set, we will investigate two of the masks - William Shakespeare, the famous playwright, and Father CRC, the mythic character from the Rosicrucian Manifestoes. In the follow-up article, we will look at two more masks: the Freemasonic Order and the elite scientific fraternity named "Salomon's House" that Bacon references in his utopian novel, "New Atlantis".
Part 2, the follow-up episode to this one, will be possessed shortly after this one.
Thank you to everyone who has followed the series so far. To find the table of continents for it, as well as for links to the other chapters of the larger book project it is a part of, please see the "publications" section of my website, www.alexsachon.com.

In this episode we continue our series on Francis Bacon. Here, we will further explore some of the ideas and concepts concerning the philosophy of science, which we originally introduced and overviewed in the previous episode during our analysis of Bacon's "Art of Discovery".
This episode/article (see my Substack for the written version) begins with a discussion of seven key themes in the philosophical approach to science that Bacon advocated. Then, we move on to discuss seven key laws of nature, as outlined by Manly P. Hall in his 1942 article titled "The Seven Great Laws that Rule the World". These represent Hall's framework for seven Summary Laws, which are the "well-proven axioms" that constitute Step Six of Bacon's six-stepped method.
After this episode, two more await in this ongoing series on Francis Bacon. These last two articles are really one article split in two. It's called "the Four Masks of Francis Bacon" and delves into Bacon's role in the Shakespeare mystery, among other topics. Stay tuned.

In today's episode we launch a new series on the topic of Francis Bacon, who is truly one of the most significant figures of world history. The focus of this initial episode is to lay the historical and geopolitical foundations for European civilization after the fall of the Roman Empire. In particular, we focus on the rise of the Roman Catholic Church as a major power player and the persecution of philosophy that took place as a result.
In the episode that follows, we will track the movement of esoteric philosophy through various secret societies and front organizations over the course of the Middle Ages. This will serve to lay the foundations for examine the world that Francis Bacon was born into and would transform through the work he conducted over the course of his lifetime.
I hope you'll stay tuned.

Hey everyone, in today's episode I'm sharing a two+ hour conversation I had recently with Christian pastor Ben Bessett. For years, he has been interested in trying to understand the perspective of the Esoteric or Occult side of religion. He states clearly that he believes we are on opposite sides of the spectrum in terms of our religious beliefs, but he was very courteous in our conversation and I really enjoyed talking with him. Hopefully, down the road we can do a follow-up chat.
Note: I begin the podcast with a rather longwinded tale of my backstory and how I got into studying esoteric philosophy. I haven’t talked about this much on my channel so I decided to leave it in.
Thank you Ben for the conversation and for allowing me to post it. I hope you all enjoy and benefit from it in some way.

In today's episode we conclude our six-part series on Plato and the philosophy of government by focusing in on Plato's concept of the "philosophic empire" and examining what it means for us today as we approach a "new world order" of global government.
Thank you to everyone who's followed the whole series, I hope you find this a satisfying conclusion to the journey. Next up will be a multi-part series on Francis Bacon and the making of the modern world.

In today's episode we continue our series on Plato and the philosophy of government by investigating the themes associated with the Hindu concept of the Kali Yuga. The goal here is to relate these themes back to the various historical patterns we've been tracking in this series, including the rise of debt, empire, oligarchy, materialism, and secularism. As we'll see, these themes align not only with the "archetype of Atlantis", but also with the ancient Hindu teachings regarding the Kali Yuga.
At the very end of this episode we explore the question of when the Kali Yuga is set to come to an end and whether that auspicious event might take place in the 21st century.
I hope you'll stay tuned. And be sure to check back for the concluding article/episode in this series - on the topic of the "Philosophic Empire" - which will be coming soon.

In today's episode I break down a classic Manly P. Hall lecture on the topic of Atlantis. This lecture is originally titled "Atlantean Records in Greece and Egypt"; in my opinion, it is the single most informative document you can find anywhere on the topic of Atlantis.
This episode is intended to pair with my previous episode, which analyzed a recent article of mine titled "Atlantis and the Archetype of Empire". For more on this topic, see also my 2021 publication "Atlantis and the Origins of Civilization".

In today's episode, we continue our exploration of the life, times, and philosophy of Plato. Here, we examine various aspects of his teachings about Atlantis. In particular, we analyze the esoteric significance of this pre-diluvian civilization from a historical, psychological, and philosophical perspective. As usual, Manly P. Hall's writings are heavily emphasized, as are aspects of Carl Jung's psychology, including his notions of "archetypes", which he drew from Plato in formulating, and the "collective shadow", which, as we will be exploring, is heavily linked to Atlantis's fall into collapse.

In today's episode we continue our series on the philosophy of Plato by examining his teachings concerning the World Soul and the philosophy of archetypes, which represent divine ideas or thoughts held within the Mind of God. As we will be exploring, each form in the universe exists as an extension of one of these archetypal thoughts. Of course, this includes man himself.
In the latter part of this episode we will, as a "case study", be viewing mankind through the lens of archetypes, considering its origin and destiny in relation to this important philosophical idea.
Overall, this is Part 3 in an overall 6-part series. Stay tuned for the rest, there's material in there you won't want to miss.

In today's episode we continue our series on Plato. Here, we begin by considering Greece politics, life, and culture in the time of Plato. In particular, we focus on the state religion of Greece and its network of Mystery Schools, which were organized under the religious philosophy of the Orphics. We then turn our attention to the life and teachings of Plato, an initiate of the Orphic Mysteries.
From this point on, as we progress through the rest of the chapter (with four more articles/episodes to follow), we are going to be dissecting various aspects of Plato's philosophy. I hope you'll stay tuned.

In today's episode we begin a new chapter in our ongoing series on philosophy. It is titled "Plato's Vision of the Philosophic Empire" and is comprised of five parts, this present episode being the first of these five subsections. (Note: the series is now expanded to six parts).
The focus of this initial section of the chapter is to establish a historical context to the period in which Plato lived. Here, we will be delving into the economic, political, and sociological dynamics of ancient Greece and its neighboring empires across Eurasia and consider the dynamics that lead to the rise and fall of each.
Overall, this chapter on Plato forms the 9th of 13 overall chapters that together form a book called "Philosophy: Its Origin, Purpose, and Destiny". The full table of contents for this book, with links to each section, can be found on my website, www.alexsachon.com

Today's episode brings us to the exciting conclusions of our six-part series on esoteric philosophy, the psychology of meditation, and the use of mandalas in esoteric practices. In the first two episodes of this chapter, we investigated the psychology behind meditation, mandalas, and the mystical experience. In the two episodes that followed, we analyzed Mahayana Buddhism as a case study of these topics. Then, in the fifth and previous article of this series, we turned our attention to another case study: that of Pythagorean Tetractys.
Now, in this episode, we synthesize everything together in order to lay out a grand concept of human civilization as a collective mandala of the human soul.
I hope you enjoy. Stay tuned for the next chapter in my ongoing book project titled "Philosophy: Its Origins, Purpose, and Destiny" - it's on Plato's vision of the Philosophic Empire.

Hey folks,
In today's episode we continue our series on the philosophy and psychology of meditation. In this episode (part 4 of a 6 part series), we focus on the meaning behind two important mandalas from Esoteric Buddhism: The Diamond and Matrix Mandalas, or as they are sometimes called "The Mandala of the Two Realms". The aim of this episode is to offer an introduction and overview of how these two mandalas fit into the larger esoteric practices and worldview of the Mahayana sect.
Please see the written version of this article for visuals of the mandalas being discussed. You can find it at my Substack: thewisdomtradition.substack.com. See also my website: www.alexsachon.com.
Thank you for listening. Also, keep an eye out for the final two episodes of this chapter, which should follow over the next couple weeks.
Hey everyone, in today's episode we are continuing with our series on Mandala Design and philosophy of meditation. This episode is part 3 in a 6-part overall series.
Here we go deeper into the philosophy of meditation, prayer, and faith by discussing how these elements are conceived and practiced in Mahayana Buddhism. Of particular note is how these disciplines integrate with the Buddhist concept of the afterlife state.
Thank you for tuning in, I hope you enjoy.

Hi everyone, welcome back to The Wisdom Tradition podcast.
In today's episode, we will be picking up where we left off in Part 1 of our series on "Mandala Design and the Philosophy of Meditation". The particular theme of this episode is on "the occult science of visualization". Visualization exercises utilizing mandalas were an important part of the meditation disciplines utilized by the ancient Mystery Schools. In this episode we will be exploring various angles on how these exercises work and what psychological principles they leverage.

Hey everyone, with today's episode I'm excited to be introducing the newest chapter in my ongoing book project titled "Philosophy: Its Origin, Purpose, and Destiny". This chapter builds off material covered in our previous articles/episodes in order to discuss the psychology and philosophy of meditation.
This discussion of meditation is centered around the use of "mandalas", which were implemented by the ancient Esoteric Schools as meditational guides for their initiates and disciples. The material in today's episode sets the foundation for this discussion of mandalas, which will unfold across five subsequent articles/epsiodes in this series. I hope you'll stay tuned for them all. Thank you and God Bless.
Today I'm excited to be presenting the concluding episode of our ongoing series on Pythagorean Philosophy. As with each of the earlier episodes in this series, today's show is based around a written article that you can read (for free) on my Substack/blog.
The main topic of this episode is on the Golden Ratio (i.e. the Golden Section or Divine Proportion). Over the next 90+ minutes, I explain what the Golden Ratio is, how it's measured, and why, in Esoteric Philosophy, it is considered significant and sacred.
As part of our discussion, we'll be going into the work of Scott Olsen (author of the excellent book "The Golden Section: Nature's Greatest Secret") to show how the Golden Ratio is cleverly referenced - in a vague and concealed manner - in works written over 2000 years ago by the great Athenian philosopher Plato. In these writings, Plato points us toward the esoteric significance of Phi and hints at why it was regarded with such high regard by the Mystery Schools, who forbade him and others from discussing it in an open and straightforward manner.
I hope you'll stay tuned for this discussion. Please also check out the written article, linked above.
Thank you,
Hey everyone,
Thank you for tuning back in. After a brief pause, I'm excited to be continuing our series on Pythagorean Philosophy. Originally, I had planned this series to be four parts, but I have extended this now to five, meaning there is one additional episode coming after this one.
In this current episode (part 4), we are going to be delving further into the Pythagorean principles of the Triad and Pentad in order to explore how the thinking of modern "Systems Science" interfaces with these ancient ideas. As we will see, Systems Science's triad of "supersystems, systems, and subsystems" interfaces nicely with the Pythagorean sect's doctrine of numerical philosophy. I hope you'll stay tuned to find out how it all fits together.

Hey everyone,
Today I have a special episode: an analysis of a classic Manly Hall lecture titled "The Feminine Factor in World Religion". Here we will be investigating the topic of the Divine Feminine, which we've already tackled in some detail in our previous series on Mahayana Buddhism and Pythagorean Philosophy. In this lecture, Manly Hall simplifies the core ideas of these doctrines, making them accessible to anyone.
Throughout this lecture, Hall offers and inspiring vision for how human society can be regenerated by re-embracing something we once had but lost: an understanding of and reverence for God the Mother - i.e. "the Mother Goddess".
At the end of this lecture, Manly Hall hints at somewhat of a prophecy for our time and place, one that foresees a coming restoration of Divine Feminine in human life. This is an episode that's not to be missed.
Thank you,
In this episode we continue our exploration of Pythagorean philosophy and its study of Divine Number. Here, we concentrate on the Tetrad (the Pythagorean principle of Four) and investigate its relationship to the Divine Feminine.
This series on Pythagoras is based around a corresponding series of articles that you can find on my Substack. There are lots of visuals included there that you won't find in the audio version, so be sure to check it out.

It goes back over some of the content we covered in the previous episode, while also introducing and exploring new aspects of the philosophy. I will shortly have a new article also on the topic of Mahayana Buddhism that further analyzes its philosophical teachings, with this article's particular focus being on Mahayana Buddhism's doctrine of spiritual cosmology and on its Messianic prophecy of the Buddha-to-Come, Maitreya.

This episode continues our series (which will eventually be a 13 chapter book), moving our story up through time from the Aryans to the Brahmans to the Buddhists to Buddhism's second birth in the form of Mahayana Buddhism. With the Mahayana School, Buddhism comes into full maturity as a philosophical system. By investigating its core framework of teachings, there is much we can learn.

In this episode we continue our investigation of the history, purpose, and destiny of philosophy by examining its connection to a great social reform project that first emerged out of the Atlantean priesthood. This sect of Atlantean reformists was termed "the Arya".
At a remote point in history, waves of Aryan migrations proceeded out from a secluded homeland in the Himalayas to catalyze a transformation of postdiluvian civilization away from the habits of its Atlantean forebearers and toward the attainment of a new ideal: a "New Atlantis".

In this episode we continue in our ongoing series of investigations of the ancient institution of the Mystery Schools and its relationship to philosophy. In the previous article/episode of this series, we tracked philosophy's birth out of the Mystery Schools during the Axial Age. In this article, we backtrack from this critical period and look back at the origin of the Mystery Schools themselves, tracking their existence back to the lost antediluvian empire of Atlantis. In the articles that follow, we're going to return to the Axial Ages to take a deeper look at a few lingering threads, and then in future episodes we're going to progress in time toward Francis Bacon and the birth of science.

This is part of an ongoing series that investigates the history of the Mystery Schools and the role that philosophy, a creation of these Schools, is destined to play in the great reformation of human society that is to come.

This episode builds off the previous episode, which investigated the Mystery School system of antiquity. Here we look at a lecture of Manly Hall that delves into the Mysteries further, looking at their priesthood, their philosophy, and the role that initiation played in their worldview. We also consider how philosophy first emerged out of the Mystery School traditions and how Alexandria became the birth place of several highly influential systems of philosophy during a critical period in human history.

Hey everyone,
I just published my newest article on Substack! It's titled "The Mystery Schools and the Invisible Government: An examination of the arcane institution responsible for accelerating human evolution". In this episode, we will be delving into the contents of this important article, which outlines and overviews one of the fundamental topics of Esoteric Philosophy: the Mystery Schools, which existed at the heart of the great temples of the pre-Christian "pagan" age of human history.
Here, I investigate the Mysteries and consider the ways it evolved and transformed after the transition of astrological ages between Aries and Pisces, which took place at the birth of Christian Church circa 300 AD. This transition signaled the final collapse of the old world order and the formal birth a new one. In this episode, I argue that the Mystery system was at the center of the events that took place before, during, and after this transition period.

Hey everyone, in this episode further unpacking the implications of the Ukraine War in terms of how it interfaces with the Great Reset and other recent motions in geopolitics. In particular, we'll be looking the idea that perhaps an unexpected factor could enter the equation, one that has to do with the military's unexpected acknowledgment of the UFO phenomenon several years ago. How could this unknown factor enter into the trajectory of current events?
This discussion will be rooted the exploration of several passages from my new article "The Ukraine War, the Great Reset, and America's Grand Strategy", which can be found on my Substack (thewisdomtradition.substack.com).

Given that current world events seem to be moving things toward a new phase of the Great Reset, I've decided to table my ambitions to focus my upcoming content on a new publication centered around the metaphysics of health and instead focus on an extended series of content focused around geopolitics, empire, the deep state, the Great Reset, and the existence of a "secret space program" within the heart of the American military-industrial complex.
On that note, I've just dropped on this Substack my first major article, which is called "The Ukraine War, the Great Reset, and America's Grand Strategy". It goes over many of the points covered in my previous podcast on the "grand chessboard", but offers them in a much tighter presentation while also adding several new lines of argumentation. I really hope you'll check it out!
Thanks for following the podcast and for your support so far. I hope this new project will resonate as well. - Alex

Today's episode is inspired by USA's Pluto return, which many analysts in Western astrology have been discussing recently. I begin the episode by commenting on three recent articles on the significance of America's Pluto return. Around the 25 minute mark, I kick off my analysis of Manly Hall's lecture "How Hierarchy Communicates with Humans", which discusses the esoteric history and destiny of America at length.

This episode wraps up a multi-part series on my recent publication "Psychology: The Science of the Soul". Here, we hear from Manly P. Hall, who offers a comprehensive critique of the modern paradigm of "scientific materialism". He emphasizes the idea that secular science breeds a number of psychological and social ills. He notes that religion and science function as thesis-antithesis to each other: one focuses on the inner life, the other focuses on the outer world. Both need each other, and neither is complete without the influence of its counterpart. He also notes that philosophy is the agent intended to bind and synthesize these two together. Through philosophy, science can be re-ensouled with religion.
Throughout this lecture, MPH utilizes the Darwinian theory of evolution as a case study in which to investigate the larger themes associated with the paradigm of scientific materialism.

In this episode, I overview the fourth and final chapter of my recent publication, "Psychology: The Science of the Soul". Here, I overview the main tenets of the paradigm of scientific materialism. I then compare and contrast this worldview with that of the "Cosmic Game" view held by depth psychology and ancient philosophy. Overall, I seek to put the current paradigm of secular science into a larger historical and spiritual context and argue that the current moment in time signifies a gradual "death" of this paradigm in order that a new paradigm can be born in which science is re-ensouled with religious and philosophic themes.
This episode will be followed up with another episode in which I analyze Manly P. Hall's lecture "I Beg to Differ with Darwinian Theory", which touches on many of these same topics.

In this episode, we continue our investigation of the link between depth psychology and astrology by investigating the astrological dynamics underlying current events. This serves as a case study to test out and verify the conclusions reached in our previous episode, which delved into the idea that the archetypes of the collective unconscious are correlated with the motion of the planets, as studied in the astrological systems of the ancient world. A large portion of this episode is focused on a case-study of the Pluto-Saturn alignment of 2020.
This episode is one of my longer ones - I hope you stick with it because I lot of important information is presented, stuff you won't see anywhere else. Thanks for tuning in and for your support.

In this episode we delve into Ch. 3 of my recent publication "Psychology: the Science of the Soul", which explores the links between depth psychology and astrology. This exploration will be split into two parts: in this initial part, we'll go over the basic ideas involved with depth psychology's study of the archetypes of the collective unconscious and astrology's study of planetary transits in the horoscope of both individuals and the world as a whole. In Part 2, we will look at the planetary transits that took place in 2020 and investigate how they have "triggered" certain archetypes within the collective unconscious to become activated. My hypothesis is that the triggering of these archetypes is what is responsible for the "collective psychosis" and "mass formation" we have been seeing throughout the world.

Today's episode follows up the previous episode, which introduced and outlined the core teachings of psychologist Stanislav Grof. In this episode, we'll be hearing directly from Dr. Grof himself: I have chopped up and sampled a lecture of his from the late-90s, where he overviews and outlines the core ideas, findings, and conclusions taken from his decades of research into non-ordinary and mystical states of consciousness. There is remarkable similarity between Grof's conclusions about the core realities of life and those reached by both Carl Jung and Manly P. Hall. I think you'll enjoy this episode! - Alex

This episode continues in a series that investigates the contents of my new publication "Psychology: The Science of the Soul". Here we go into Ch. 2, which delves into the work of psychologist Stanislav Grof whose career was focused on the study of "non-ordinary states of consciousness." In particular, he focused on a special category of such states which he termed "Holotropic experiences" - these involve mystical and spiritual encounters with archetypal elements of the collective unconscious. Tune in to find out more.

This episode is part 2/2 and follows episode 26a. We again hear directly from Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell and also, this time, from Manly P. Hall. The objective is to give a psychoanalysis of modern society and to focus in on how we have become collectively neurotic as a result of living without a "modern myth". First we discuss the symptoms associated with the collective neurosis that plagues our secular scientific age before moving on to a discussion of the core factors of myth that we must consider as we are confronted with the need to establish a new mythos for ourselves. As part of this we'll be looking at a case study on the symbolism of UFOs and the question of extraterrestrial intelligence.

Special shout out to the Manly P. Hall Society's YouTube channel for uploading the MPH lecture that I reference in this video.
Hey everyone,
In this episode we continue the series that explores the contents of my new publication, "Psychology: The Science of the Soul" (available at my e-store). More specifically, this episode follows up the previous episode detailing the essential elements of Carl Jung's approach to Psychology. Here, I have extracted clips from Carl Jung, as well as from various other Jungian analysts such as Joseph Campbell and Jordan Peterson, which outline the core concepts of Depth Psychology. I offer my commentary throughout to help link everything together. I think you're going to really enjoy this one!
This episode is part 1 of 2. In the second episode, which will be posted soon, I will be utilizing the ideas and concepts discussed here in order to do a psychoanalysis of modern man. Again, many clips of Jung, Campbell, Manly Hall, and others will be sampled and shared.
I have much more content based off my Psychology zine planned so stay tuned! Please pick up a copy (Digital or physical) from my e-store: www.thewisdomtradition.bigcartel.com

This episode is the second in a series that overviews the contents of a new publication I've just launched on the topic of Depth Psychology. This video focuses on the zine's first chapter, which offers a sweeping overview of Carl Jung's core ideas concerning the structures and dynamics of the human psyche.
Topics include: the Self vs. the ego, the collective vs. personal unconscious, psychological archetypes, the four psychic functions (plus a mystical fifth), introversion vs. extroversion, anima vs. animus, and more. The writings of philosopher Manly P. Hall are cited throughout.

In this episode, I introduce and preview my new publication that re-interprets the global response to the covid epidemic through the lens of Depth Psychology.
In the zine's first two chapters I outline and overview the core teachings of Carl Jung and Stanislav Grof. Here I focus on their findings that there is a "transpersonal" dimension to the human psyche. This discussion sets the stage for the zine's third chapter, which looks at the link between Depth Psychology and Astrology. Here I look at the astrological dynamics underlying the global response to Covid. In the zine's final chapter, I discuss the theme of "death-rebirth" and analyze how this current moment in time indicates a death of "scientific materialism" and a rebirth of the philosophy of the sacred.
This month I have a ton of content planned around this zine, where I'll be doing a deep dive on each of its 4 chapters. You can find digital and print copies (limited in quantity) at my store - thewisdomtradition.bigcartel.com. Thanks for tuning in! Be back soon, - Alex

I put together this 3-part documentary "mixtape" on the "Deep State" back in May in order to explain the fundamentals of the concept. The video version is available on my YouTube channel. This is a precursor to the "Secret Space Program" series that I've already posted on the podcast (check the archives). Together, these represent a powerful thesis on how the underlying structure of global governance actually functions. In the coming months I'm going to be revisiting the themes of both those documentaries and I'm going to attempt to offer an overarching vision of how these concepts link with current global events.

Here's my original write-up from the YouTube posting:
This is a documentary "mixtape" that I compiled from various sources. It is Part One of a three-part series. The full credits/citations list for all three parts are presented at the end of Part Three. Commentators and analysts cited in this project include:
The ideas conveyed here are ones I've been researching and thinking about for over a decade. Those core topics are: modern history, finance, capitalism, economics, foreign affairs, cartel networks, and, in general, the modern corporate face of the entity that was once called "the military industrial complex". I had originally planned on writing these ideas out as a book, but I've found that, through this documentary format, I can convey the core themes and ideas of these topics in a way that is much more likely to reach a wide audience.
I made this video mix purely for educational, informational, and motivational purposes - I'm not monitizing it and hope that people will share it freely as they see fit. Again, the credits for the videos cited are listed at the end of Part Three.
This documentary is part of a larger series that I'm making on the grand overarching topic of: "The State of the World". Some documentaries in this series are still forthcoming; some I've already made. You can find those and more (all available openly) by visiting my website www.alexsachon.com.

In this episode I review a recent article of F. William Engdahl on the topic of geopolitics, the financial markets, the pandemic, and "The Great Reset" initiative. This discussion directly follows up a previous episode (ep. 9a) from August, where I delved into a March 2020 article of Michael Hudson on systemic fragility in the financial system. This episode also touches on material from the previous few episodes on the science underlying coronavirus and what it tells us about the larger forces at work behind this global operation.

Note: for podcast listeners, I recorded this to post on YouTube, since my previous episode got blocked on copyright grounds. It rehashes the main set of arguments I laid out in my previous two videos (but doesn't feature any clips).
From my YouTube description:
On my podcast "The Wisdom Tradition" I recently posted an episode where I broke down several clips from Dr. Peter McCullough's recent blockbuster interview on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. This video got blocked from YouTube for copyright reasons, so I made this video (without any clips) that goes over my main take-away from the episode. This video is intended to pair with my previous video, which goes into Dr. Tom Cowan's recent ebook that deconstructs virology's claim of virus isolation.

Hey everyone, in this episode I do a deep-dive into Dr. Peter McCullough's recent blockbuster interview on Joe Rogan's podcast. I edited out several clips from the interview and share those, while offering detailed analysis on the content of what he is saying.
This episode follows my previous episode, which is on the issue of virus isolation. I start things off in this current episode by comparing Dr. McCullough's approach with the ideas discussed in that previous episode.

In this episode I analyze one of the key topics discussed in Dr. Tom Cowan's recent ebook "Breaking the Spell": virology's claim that it has successfully accomplished "virus isolation" for the various virus strains that they claim are responsible for the numerous disease epidemics that have occurred throughout recent history, including COVID, AIDS, polio, and many others.
As we will be exploring, it is far from conclusive that an entity called a "virus" actually exists in nature. Likely, virologists are mistaking "viruses" for "exosomes" - packets of genetic information released as part of the natural process of cell sickness and death. These particles (exosomes) emerge from a cell after the cell has already been sickened. They are not the cause of the cell being sickened; it is being sickened from other factors and is emitting the exosomes (mistaken as viruses) as an inevitable consequence of its sickness.
The main idea here is that viruses are not disease-causing agents; they are not the cause of illness but a symptom or effect of a cell that has become sick for other reasons. Blaming illness on contagious viruses is a red herring, one that distracts us from seeking out the true cause of disease.
The question of what is actually causing tody's global epidemic of illness is a topic that many researchers are still exploring. But you don't have to have that answer completely figured out in order to disqualify other theories which have been proposed to explain the disease outbreak but which, upon consideration, have failed to persuasively argue its scientific case. In other words, we can falsify or "nullify" a theory that has been proposed without having already worked out what the correct explanation is. All we need to do is apply the scientific method to the theory; if it is not able to successfully pass through the requirements of the method, then the theory is 'nullified' - it is shown to be invalid.
As it turns out, the virus theory of contagion does not pass the scientific method - it has been nullified; it does not qualify as a valid scientific hypothesis to explain how and why disease epidemics emerge in human beings. One or more other explanations are needed; the virus theory is done for.
A further point must be considered: as long as we keep spending all our attention on viruses, we restrict and distract ourselves from going on the quest of finding the epidemic's true cause (which may be dynamic and include numerous variables, rather than just one). By fixating on viruses, we never give ourselves the chance to develop proper prevention or treatment protocols based on an accurate diagnosis of what's really afflicting people.
If you enjoyed this episode and are interested hearing more explorations of this topic, check out my podcast archive where I have other related episodes. I'm also working on a full written report on the topic, one which will factor in Manly Hall's teachings on the metaphysics of human health.

In this episode, I review a 1941 article of Manly Hall's that explores the intersection between news, current events, and philosophy. In particular, it explores the notion of how, through an appreciation of Law, we can learn and grow through contemplation of the often-depressing reports we see in the news media.

Hey everyone,
This is the last video in a series on Atlantis and the 7 ages of Man, which I'm doing in support of my new zine/study guide on the topic. In this video, I present a series of clips from Graham Hancock, Randall Carlson, and John Anthony West on the topic of Atlantis. I then offer commentary on these clips based on the teachings of Manly P. Hall.

This episode follows up on my previous episode, where we discussed esoteric philosophy's method of interpreting race. In this episode, we hone in on the current age, - the 5th of 7 ages - in this current cycle of existence. As Manly P. Hall writes, the evolutionary arc of our current age is to move from "race" to "nation". In this episode, we explore what this means. Thanks for tuning in!

Hey y'all - sorry for the delay in putting out content this month. I was hard at work on my new zine/study guide, which is now at the printers and should be available in a week or two. In the meantime, in this episode I'm going to take inspiration from current events and delve into the topic of race - something that corporate media, politicians, and (un)woke activists have become obsessed over. There seems to be an effort to use race as a means of divide-and-conquer among the population. By staying grounded in esoteric philosophy's teachings about the topic, we can bypass this and keep our eyes on the prize. Thanks for tuning in, see you soon. - Alex

Hey everyone,
In today's episode I have a lengthy conversation with Roman Bystrianyk, co-author of the influential 2013 book "Dissolving Illusions" (co-authored with Dr. Suzanne Humphries), which delves deep into the data and statistics to show how the history of vaccines and virology is not what it seems to be. Roman is also working on a new project about the critical environmental issues affecting our planet and society, and toward the end of our convo we get into that.

In this wide-ranging discussion, we discuss the esoteric philosophies of 19th century Indian mystics Sri Ramakrishna, Swami Vivekananda, and Sri Aurobindo. We also discuss the basic spiritual cosmology of ancient Indian philosophy (Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva), before heading into a discussion of the ancient Indian tradition of the "Arya".
My computer was battling with internet connectivity issues throughout so there are many audio blips. I did my best to edit around them: I hope you stick with it, because there's a lot of really good material contained within.

Hey folks, in today's episode I have an interview with a special guest: Dr. Xiaoyan Wang, a doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practicing in Richmond, Virginia. In this episode, we talk about the fundamentals of TCM, how it diagnoses and treats illness, and how its approach differs from the drug-based approach of Western medicine . Importantly we also discuss the fact that TCM has been used to great effect in treating patients with COVID-related illnesses.
Most people today - in the US and elsewhere - are incorrectly taught to believe that there are no treatments available for COVID illness. Consequently, most believe that if you get ill, there's nothing that can be done for you unless you're brought into a hospital and put on a ventilator. Despite this widespread view, the truth is that there are several early to mid-stage treatments for COVID that have proven to be effective. In the alternative media in the West, we are seeing widespread reports that Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin are two drugs that have shown to be effective, but we've heard little about TCM as a third major form of treatment. Many, many people have used TCM to use successfully treat COVID illness (my roommate being one of them) and in this episode we are going to delve into the basic ideas behind how it works. Thanks for watching! - Alex

Dr. Wang's site: http://www.acupuncturistwang.com/
I put this together as a PSA to highlight the fact that treatments for COVID patients do actually exist but they are being denied to patients and scrubbed from the media as a matter of public policy. We should all be outraged by this!
Not mentioned here (but I want to point it out) is the fact that Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) also works very well as a treatment for COVID illness. I can attest to this from personal firsthand experience.

I put this together as a PSA to try to help combat an endemic ignorance that exists concerning the sociology of our medical system. It is - in no unclear terms - a CARTEL. There is no controversy about this in sociology; only in the public mind. So let's take a deeper look and get educated.
Featured here are Robert Whitaker, Kelly Brogan, the Corbett Report, Zack Bush, and Vandana Shiva. Also, featured are animations (on the Zack Bush clip) from After Skool (a great YouTube account to follow),

I put this together as a PSA to help combat the notion that the public health policies we get from the medical industry and from our government regulatory agencies are ones based on sound science. They are not. So when you consider this current public health situation, take the time to actually look to see if what's being advocated for is actually based on sound science.
This episode features clips from Kelly Brogan, Robert Whitaker, David Cohen (interviews taken from the "Medicating Normal" documentary) and Leemon McHenry (from a
Journeyman Pictures interview. As part of their series "Perspectives on the Pandemic").

This is a mix of clips of Vandana Shiva discussing her career in environmental activism and what she has come to learn of the corporate cartels that are dominating the most vital industries of our world. Everyone needs to be aware of what's at stake in the world today and Ms. Shiva does an excellent job of both informing and inspiring us.

I want to shoutout in particular the excellent work that "After Skool" has been doing - they're featured in this mix. Here's a link to the original source of the clip that comes from them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9lq-uBdxg8&t=16s
In this episode I do a deep dive into two of MPH's journal articles, one from Horizon, the other from the PRS Journal. The themes are: reincarnation, geopolitics, history, and the rebirth of empires.
Here's a link to the two articles, both of which can be found on the invaluable site:

Here's a compilation/mixtape of clips of Michael Hudson discussing the core ideas of his research into finance capitalism from various interviews I gathered from YouTube. Originally, this footage was featured in my docu-series (The Deep State) - check my YouTube or my site www.alexsachon.com for the link to that. (there's a short clip of Noam Chomsky blended in here).
I'm going to do more of these "Essential Teachings" series in the future so keep an eye out!
This is going to be a two-part episode. In this first part, I review an article from last year by economist Michael Hudson on the state of the banking system. What happened to the systemic fragility that everyone was talking about ten years ago? We're going to explore that and other topics.
In the second-part (an upcoming episode) I'm going to present an mini-documentary of Michael Hudson discussing his research and theory in his own words. This material was originally posted in my documentary-series "The Deep State", which is available on YouTube.
Thanks for listening. - Alex
We have to talk about something very important: the psychology of "groupthink". This is a topic that could not be more important to understand at this current state of time!
In the first half of this video, I offer an introduction and overview of groupthink and how it is shaping our modern world. In the second half, I present a mini-documentary I spliced together from a variety of sources across YouTube. In it, you can hear about the theory of groupthink right from the psychologists who pioneered its study, while also seeing some case studies that make the concept more tangible.

In this video, I review the 2015 book, "Illuminatiam: The First Testament of the Illuminati". I begin by laying out my 3-part classification scheme for investigating groups claiming the "Illuminati" name and then move onto evaluating which of the 3 this book likely falls under.

In this episode we get right to the heart of Manly P. Hall's personal philosophy of life. Many vital issues are discussed and overviewed in a simple and concise manner. For students of Manly P. Hall, this is a must listen! Thank you, - Alex
Also, please check out my free docu-series "The Real Illuminati". There is some content about MPH in there that is very rare, very revealing, and very important...
Additionally, you can find a video version of this episode with visuals and notes on my YouTube. See my site www.alexsachon.com for the link.
Here is a Manly P. Hall clip on the lineage of Saints, Sages, Arhats, Adepts, and Philosophers that have dedicated themselves to Wisdom's perpetuation over the long ages of Man's evolution.
The Wisdom Tradition, simply defined, is a framework of sacred knowledge that is guarded and maintained by a vast, albeit unseen, network of secret societies and sacerdotal groups who are responsible for developing, maintaining, cultivating, perpetuating, and implementing this sacred knowledge. This they do as an act of service to the species itself.
The existence of the "Illuminati" - this sacerdotal tradition and community - is archetypal, meaning that its existence is hardwired into the chemistry of our species. Just as the Queen Bee has her archetypal existence in the Bee species, mankind has its most vital knowledge held within the custodianship of the Illuminati. The Illuminati, in other words, are an inherent, in-born aspect of Mankind, produced by Mother Nature herself. For this very reason, this lineage of wisdom-keepers have often been nicknamed "The Sons of the Widow".
In this episode, we're going to do something a little different. Instead of a lecture analysis, I'm presenting here the audio version of a documentary "mixtape" I put together where I take a mini-documentary (made in the 80s by PRS I presume) which features MPH (called "The 21st Century: A New Beginning") with audio and visuals from the classic documentary (also 80s) "Koyaanisqatsi". Into this blend I feature some of the original soundtrack orchestration by Philip Glass, as well as piano versions of a few Glass compositions by Vikingur Olafsson and a piece from a recent Alice Coltrane compilation. Here's the link to the video if you'd like to watch: https://vimeo.com/555952489

In today's episode we are going to be looking at a very interesting lecture of Manly P Hall's on the topic of a small book that Carl Jung published titled "Flying Saucers: A Modern Myth of Things Seen in the Sky." Here we will be exploring the psychology of Man, the symbolism of UFOs, and the astrological progression of the Great Year. Not to be missed!
For the video version of this lecture (with extra notes), see my Youtube page, which you can find via my website: alexsachon.com
Last note: this lecture is intended to be paired with the 3-part docu-series I put together on the topic of the "Secret Space Program". For more info on that, see my website.
Thanks for listening! - Alex

In this episode, I'm going to be investigating Manly P. Hall's lecture on HP Blavatsky, The Secret Doctrine, and, more generally, the larger tradition of Esoteric Philosophy - a tradition which both Mr. Hall and Ms. Blavatsky were both representatives of.
A video version of this presentation can be found on my Youtube, which is linked to on my website www.alexsachon.com. A link to the lecture notes for the presentation can also be found there.

Hey everyone! In this episode, I lay out my core framework for understanding Philosophy. This framework forms the foundation of the way I interpret the teachings of other philosophers, including Manly P. Hall. After this episode, the main focus of future episodes will be going into and exploring various lectures of MPH's, breaking them down and investigating what this great teacher is trying to teach us. I hope you enjoy! - Alex
