Me too. Anyone I tell that to thinks I'm crazy..lol.. atleast most. So happy I came across your channel.

[@MrKreinen]

Yeah, I was raised at first in an ashram community, by two shramana practicing renunciates, though my mother was looking for Bhakti, and a more radical personalism, and my dad was a deeply Advaita philosopher/mystic; I'd listen to Guru Prem Rawat's, or Mahatma Pardarthanon, or my dad's Satsang (usually my dad's satsang) throughout my childhood, and so when I started reading religious anthropology, and the Gita, I quickly recognized that I knew the Gita well already. I would come to learn that about a lot of Sutras and Upanishads too. That probity had something to do with my adolescent nerdy love of reading world religion philosophy, particularly loving the collection of books called the World Mystic Classics with the Gita, the Tao-te-Ching, a wonderful introduction to Kabbalah in book on the Zohor called Tree of Knowledge, a great intro to Rummi (that left me with questions that wouldn't be answered till "Let's Talk Religion" put out their Sufi religion youtube series) called the Whiling Dervishes, I think there were one or two more world mystic sacred texts that where in the published series, but you get the idea. There is another, nerdier part to my love of studying this material. Something geeeeeky and maybe even a bit embracing, ...but, if one can get past that hurdle, it's awesome tooo; There's a book based table top roleplaying game called "Mage: the Ascension" which is a brilliant setting/system entirely about this material from the standpoint of stories who's paradigm ranges and shifts from Historical Fiction, to fantasy-fiction/sci-fi, to high-fantasy/science-fantasy, and includes, and explores every major world religion and mysticism and science-philosophy and with a reality-system that is itself an unreliable narrator, or one that often gives pluralistic answers, constructed from the use of dynamic standards, a system reality that teases truth, and can look like its saying yes to one paradigm and to a number of contradicting paradigms as well. Clearly the Scientists dominate the common paradigm of modern age with their Technocratic Union, but the mystic tradition, the Hermetics, Chakravanti the Akashayana, the Celestial Chorus, the Cult of Ecstasy, etc. continue to have an influence, despite being branded reality deviants, arrested by terminator-robots, deported off-world, and lobotomized in a matrix battery prison if they were to use their mystic powers to demonstrate the also truth of their mysticisms in public; on the flip side, though their are science-mysticisms that have splintered away form the Union, like the Virtual Adepts, or the Sons of Ether, in some vary palpable ways, the Technocratic Union has delivered on raising humanity out of the much were those mystic traditions either failed, failed to try, or failed to care. Great game for us World Religion, and Anthropology nerd/geeks, and a great way to research, theorize and experiment. Still, I've seen some scholars be insulted instead of delighted. I think learning world religion is an important part of being an informed cosmopolitan adult, and the fun role-playing-game is an easy way to structure and motivate learning (in conjunction with the imagined stories you and ur group will payout) I have secret fantasies that one day @Lets Talk Religion, @Esoterica, and @Justic Riddle will join a Mage the Ascension roleplaying group with me, and we can play out some really really great historical fiction of world mysticisms and religion (perhaps eventually with @Matt Dillehunty, and @Aron Ra, and @ShannonQ as well). One day:D

I just started watching your videos during Covid lockdown and immediately became a fan. Like many of the others who commented here, I have been a religious "nerd" all my life. It began at age 9 when, although I was brought up Roman Catholic, I started to go to the library to read about ancient mythologies. My interest in religions remained an important but private endeavor, although it seeped through in my selecting William Blake as the focus of my dissertation in English literature. I am now 70 years old and I wish I could live my life over to learn all the things that I did not have the time or opportunity to study. So I am happily a patron of yours, Filip, since I imagine you some incarnation of my Student Self. But in you as incarnation, you have the courage to go where you are led... Something I was never able to do. On scholarship, in music, in whatever, may you always have that courage.

[@johnbellamy3406]

Hi, I'm so glad this video came up in my feed. When I saw you sitting in a boat on a lake I suspected you were in Sweden, and then you confirmed that when you spoke about how in Sweden it is a little stigmatized to be religious (or however you expressed that). I lived in Sweden for 20 years and always felt frustrated by religion there. As a practicing Christian, my Swedish was never really good enough to feel comfortable worshiping or even talking about religion in Swedish. Your English is flawless and you are very articulate, but I could never learn how to express religious pondering in Swedish. It requires a special vocabulary that I just didn't have and was not able learn from people around me. I also felt frustrated that so many people there were not just non-believers but anti-believers. You also said somewhere in a video, maybe this one, that many people quickly dismiss religion based on a very shallow understanding of it. That is so so true. Isn't it surprising that even very intelligent people refuse to look just past the surface. After I had lived in Sweden I moved to California. The difference was startling. In Sweden if I said that I went to church, people would look at me with suspicion. In California I would get a similar reaction if I said that I didn't. Anyway, I really enjoy your videos. I like to listen to them while I work. Recently I have been curious about the very early Christianity, before the Romans adopted it. I wonder if interest in pre-Roman Christianity will ever become more mainstream. Many thanks! Cheers

I agree with you on that is hard to define oneself since society has fix preconceptions of how religion/religious person looks like and what people see God as. I have previously studied Advaita Vedanta and non-dual Shaivism which completely changed my view on what religion/God is (I'm raised Orthodox Christian from Romania). Watching your videos on the unity of being has helped me a lot to understand how outwardly very different religions can be very alike. Maybe I will continue my quest into Christian mysticism. Glad midsommar!

I've been wanting to dive into "Kashmir Shaivism" lately. Shaivism in general has always appealed to me in its language and imagery, I like the very raw and sometimes frightening ways it is often expressed. And there is plenty of great stuff in Christianity to be sure :) Glad midsommar!

No apologies for religion: there is an area of the brain that does not become active under normal intellectual activities.

[@Armandthevampire]

I think the reason for the question of your religiosity is because it is easier to be able to understand from which standpoint you come from It is always easier for people to give an opinion if they can put you, and therefore your ideas in a box. Even though you state from which point of your thesis/opinions originate come, it is hard to disregard preconceptions. There are of course scientists that are religious and therefore might believe in ideas that are contradictory to the subject they are researching. Speaking of which, that is one of my all-time favorite subjects. I want to know how their mind works in those situations. What dictates, for them which hat they are wearing, the scientific or the religious hat. Long story short, I think it is a good idea to keep your religiosity hidden. :) All the best from a fellow Swede who is also very interested in religion and would have loved to be able to research it for a living.

[@arng111]

I think Asatru falls short. Neopagan Hard Polytheism doesn't make sense on a metaphysical or theological level. Polytheism should be interpreted through the lense of Monism. It would make more sense for Norse pagans to apply Neoplatonism to their beliefs, or to view the gods as avatars of The One, like is commonly done in Hinduism. I doubt the pre-Christian Germanic peoples would agree with how Asatruar view their beliefs.

[@damonobrien8683]

Hello, I wanted to ask how you transitioned from your bachelor's in political science to religion and as to whether they was any deep struggle there or if things had come more naturally due to your interest in religions as a subject. I am now in the same exact position you described with a major in political science just now nearing the completion of my bachelor's. My true interest I would say now is philosophy and what had initially brought me to political science was primarily political theory and the study of governing structures. Now I feel as if I'm betraying myself to a sense for feeling forced into this degree because I am unsure if I can easily shift to an academia natured setting in the subject of philosophy if I end up changing my mind. Your videos have been knowledgeable and inspiring in my growth in learning more of Islam and varying other concepts proposed by the intellects of the Arab world. For that I thank you and hope you have some guidance on the issue you once faced that I am now being faced with.

[@LetsTalkReligion]

It wasn't a hard for me at all. Both are academic subjects in the broader field of the humanities. I think what made it easier for me was that I didn't study a full 3 year program but individual courses. So I studied political science for 3 semesters and then took religious studies for another 3, after which I got a bachelor's degree in both subjects. I felt that they complemented each other and that my experience in Political science helped me in religious studies. Let me know if you have any specific questions :)

To me religion is the practical aspect of spirituality. To claim to be spiritual without being religious is comparable to saying that one is convinced of the necessity of physical exercise for the body to be healthy but one does not engage in any type of sport activity whatsoever. And on a purely rational basis believing in God seems to be more logical than the opposite. So reclaim your very legitimate right to express your deepest aspirations to reconnect to the Divine.

Welcome! Glad to have you here :) Jafar al-Sadiq is an interesting figure indeed. He will be coming up more when I do videos on shiism, esotericism and the occult sciences.

[@aboali3734]

@@LetsTalkReligion Thank you Philip for your kind response I ask you to talk about Jafar al-Sadiq, because you have an objective, fair and beautiful way. Al-Sadiq was a scholar, he had nearly 4000 students, among them the famous Jabir Ibn Hayyan (the master of chemistry). Jabir always wrote texts that were conversations between him and Jaafar al-Sadiq. Once Jaber asked the Imam: Are there human beings on those distant planets? Al-Sadiq replies: I cannot confirm that they are human, but of course there are other creatures. Where previously his grandfather Imam Ali said: in those planets there are people as you are and cities as you have . it's not my goal to determain if there are aliens or not , but to show how open minded imams were.Where religion is to know God in a correct way and a way to live (a social norm) and does not conflict with science. Not as it appears in the practices of some religions. in religious enviroments , as you know, science has always been the opposite of religion. But Jaafar Al-Sadiq was a scientist. Among his students were those who came to jurisprudence, philosophies, and religious knowledge, and some of them came to science. He is a religious figure (Imam) and the owner of what is known as the Jaafari school (which is the scientific name for the Shiites), knowing that the first imams of the Sunni sects (Hanafi) and the second of them (Maliki) were studied at Imam Jaafar's school. Alawites depend in some of their books on the dialogues between Imam al-Sadiq and al-Mawfdal Ibn Umar al-Ja'afi, as well as the Ismailis, as there is a book called Al-Haft which is almost common between Ismailis and Alawites. Since the Ismailis publish their literature, you can see philosophical solidity. Unfortunately, Alawites (I'm alawie) do not publish (for historical reasons of prosecution and slaughter). But in a historical period around 1400 CE, there were religious debates between Alawites and Ismailis in Syria and the goal was to combine the two methods. But with the death of the head of the Alawite clergy. The debates stopped. There are similarities of philosophies between them. But the Ismailis believe in the dissolution of God in bodies, while the Alawites believe in the manifestation of power (total or partial) and the separation and denial of the apparent image.
