This guy is a spiritual genius. I hope his work becomes generally well known as we all would benefit enormously.

I so wish everyone could read The Master and His Emissary. It's a masterpiece and explains so much

How can someone traverse the diffrent subjects and disciplins so easyly and then breaks it down for us to understand without taking away the magic...

...thats just beyond me. It just leaves me speechless. What a wonderfull mind.

It might be as simple as virtue being overcome by vice. If there was one valuable thing about the early Christians, it was the understanding of the 7 sins vs the 7 virtues.

Our western cultures have lost virtues and any understanding of them. We have, in many ways, turned the deadly sins into virtues. Greed for instance, is now a virtue in our major institutions. Same with lust, gluttony, etc.

The problem isn't that the sins exist. It's that they are embraced instead of resisted (or, at least attempting to resist them).

As an irrelevant aside to a marvelous lecture- in what way is the playing of 600 year old music a copyright infringement? Not to mention they can't spell infringement!

Copyright infringement????!!!! On a work composed in the 16th century?? WTF?

[davidwright]

The music - played as an example, not for any commercial purpose - was excised to 'prevent copyright infringement?' What craven lawyerly intervention was this? This usage surely comes under a 'fair use' rule? What - about 40 seconds?

[jetztabhi]

What was the name of the mentioned 1974 Russian film ?
Thank you

Philosophy is a worthwhile & necessary endeavor, but it's also quite dangerous.  There's a very real possibility of totally disappearing up your own ass.

Is there any evidence for this existance? Any claims that cannot be supported by sufficient evidence should be rejected automatically.
