Someday, when I get rich, I do wish to be a supporter of your station until then you get nothing but thumbs up and positive support. Monetarily I do wish I could support you. You’re one of the very very few channels that cover esoteric subjects seriously.

[@blackflagsnroses6013]

ing society and social relations, processes, and realities thereof the social scientists made associations with mystical phenomena. The psycho-biological dimension of society certainly seems mystic, but I suppose magic is science not yet understood or something. There was interest in Perennialism and mysticism or occult among the early socialist movement which attempted the synthesis of religion and science such as Saint-Simon and Comte’s New Catholicism/Christianity and Religion of Humanity respectively. Saint-Simon and Fourier both really emphasized Newton and his foundational law of attraction. To them, this was implying that there could also be mysterious forces within society. The notion of society being bigger than the sum of its parts comes out of this conception of reality being full of complex and mysterious forces. Magic was a prevalent topic and issue in the early social science movement. A video going into that history would be cool! The influential esotericist Éliphas Lévi was a disciple of the socialist Charles Fourier!

I first found your videos not even 6 months ago and they're always so educational and fascinating. You have a real way of giving cultural and historical context to these topics and making the past feel much more alive and relatable and much less "wut? why would anyone believe that?" Lately, I've even gotten my best friend into your videos, not because she's interested in the esoteric or occult but because she loves your (usually) low-key snark so much. Plus you always include resources and recommended reading in your descriptions (and in the videos themselves) which I just love, both because I enjoy doing my own research and because so many content creators state things as fact without citing a single source. Thank you for these wonderful, educational videos. I smile every time I see a new one from you.

I like how the logical process to make the temple out of “unhewn stone” so that you can avoid using iron tools is to go on a massive, elaborate, demon-taming adventure for a magic demon worm who hews stone without tools rather than just… using tools made out of a different material.

[@Toxoplasma13]

Listen, would you rather try and source copper of good quality or judt go catch a magic worm

[@Killersean900]

@@Toxoplasma13 Honestly, you’ve got me there. The worm really was the ONLY logical choice.

[@jacobfreeman5444]

Iron was rare, far harder than other metals, and seen as at least half mystical. No less because the best sources of high quality iron came from meteorites. Literally metal from the heavens. In that context you can see why looking for a demon wyrm to do your masonry was seen as the more practical option. If you need iron tools to do the job but have no access to iron or iron working then obviously you need to substitute some other magical force.

[@notsae66]

An aversion to Iron, huh. Are we sure Solomen didn't mistake bizarre Fae for demons sometimes?

The opening monologue about the teeming ubiquity of demons really made me think how, in some sense, this ancient text is true - it’s just the ‘demons’ are actually bacteria and other countless microorganisms, lurking within us and upon us and on every surface we touch. If the eye could see we would indeed be horrified at the overwhelming mass of tiny, often (from our perspective) malevolent beings that we share our space with and are inexorably linked to.

After reading the divine invasion I started going back to temple and was constantly badgering my rabbi to read it and or teach me about the things I learned in the book. After a week he came back to me and said "yoseph the things you are looking for dont need you to discover them, please learn to crawl before you try to run". I had goosebumps.

I extend my humble gratitute for this amazing wisdom and acknowledge their purpose and existance. As I journey life I understand such wisdom and take reverence over its purpose and nature. I also notice how excited you are as you shown so much other future potential for such content and its development to be explored creatively into movies or something hoping to see. 😊 Its relaxing to hear your perspectives in examples and possibilities. I found something interesting to look foward to perhaps is meant for me to take note or discover ethics more. Peace be with you 🙏

💡 I feel like we need someone like Robert Eggers to create an entire "Marvel-like" universe of films around all these topics. So much enigmatically beautiful material to interpret. Make it so!

Do a confined 3 film story. Don't need constant cinematic universes.

My great scholar, could you do a video about The Ethiopian Magical Scrolls?

Always Interesting and worth watching!. One of my favorite texts. I enjoy the Doctor's Historical and entertaining presentations and excellent references and inspiration to go to the Archives and do your own research! Yes, do at least one, entirely En Latin of course with some translations. And Alchemy is my favorite.
