No one special here, I've been studying hermeticism and esoterica for years: your channel is one of the very few that are actually, actually grounded!

"I am an actual crazy person."
Nice to know I'm in good company on this one. Doing a book club with some friends over a fantasy series that draws heavily on hermeticism, and I often end up talking about what I actually believe in terms of magic, spirit, and planes. Things get weird.

im a normal machine operator that works in the mines but i did have a rather peculiar experience. i was on holiday in the annapurna and this huge vulture flew over my head and dropped a feather about two feet long. it was so pretty I kept it on my backpack. About a week later i had this extremely vivid dream of flying through the valley as it transitioned from snow covered to humid jungle. The next day two canadians got altitude sickness and they had to call a rescue helicopter and i hitched a ride back with them back to kathmandu.. flying back down through the valley it was exactly the same valley.

My grandad was a Native American, and at his funeral there were singers with their drums singing the funeral song. When they started singing, an eagle flew over a nearby hill and started circling overhead. It continued circling until the song was done, at which point it flew out of sight towards the mountains. Aside from the obvious, this was significant for several personal reasons which I won't go into now. Suffice it to say that I have yet to witness something so beautiful again. To me, that's what truly cemented the fact that there is more than just physical reality.

I’ve always been fascinated with “magic” and the mystical, but I’m a scientist by profession. One of the main reasons I pursued science was to understand the Truth better. Obviously I ended up with far more questions than answers, but as I’ve learned the accepted foundational knowledge of the physical world, I’ve found myself feeling closer and closer to the mystical and spiritual. Like what learning science did for me most, was helped me understand where that gap is. Beautiful video, you’ve gained a fan.

The stones arranged themselves. The ancients knew how to commune with nature. Modern man does not.

“Unlike others here on YouTube I am an actual crazy person”
This made me feel so seen. Love your videos dude!!

[anthony]

In short, your thoughts and actions matter! Perfect antidote to the void of modern nihilism and meaninglessness.

[Mustachioed_Mollusk]

Thank you actual crazy person!
I look forward to the mage duels we’ll have in the future!

[aletter]

When you grow up in the hermetic tradition, to see so many people enjoying the wisdom you were told in silence, is so beautiful and amazing. Much love and kindness.

As someone who made the jump from materialism and scientific skepticism to a permanent non-dualistic experience of the world, this video (and this whole channel) is really fascinating! Especially the part about how human consciousness has transformed over the millennia resonates strongly. We now belittle the people of the past, telling ourselves how horrible it must have been to live back then, but indeed it seems as though we cannot even imagine how people used to think. After all, people used to live like that for thousands of years. To me, it seems that we are due for a renewed paradigm shift...

[jpslaym]

Can you imagine a world where the content of this channel were as popular as the Kardashians and reality tv in todays society? Imagine world where we actually used the mass of neurons on our shoulders and periodically checked in with our higher selves to see what knowledge it may impart?

This one's a banger, I'm gonna have to watch multiple times. Great stuff!

Just to throw my yarn out there in case some of it knits in, I've been saying forever that WORDS, both written and spoken, but especially spoken, are literal magic, and most people are just really bad spellcasters.

Words are a direct key to involuntarily conjuring thoughts, images, and most importantly, emotions into the minds of other beings, even non-human ones, that become sensitive to our incantations.

When a person studies body language, rhetoric, and psychology, and has control over their own minds and emotions, they become a spell caster.

The self-control wrought through meditation becomes a form of "anti-magic" shield wherein you become resistant or even immune to spells cast by others.

Through proper control of one's tone, posture, facial expressions, word choice, and most importantly, timing of when to say something, you can manipulate individuals into EITHER positive or negative actions. I've become so proficient at this, I'm constantly told I could be a cult leader. Fortunately for everyone else I'm too lazy and introverted to even want to micro manage people, let alone do it. That said, in my personal life, I'm pretty damn good at getting people to do what I want. Also, Fortunately, I'm a Buddhist, and consciously commit my power to serving "good." In the past few months I got my overweight friend to start losing weight, another to go to the doctor for a neurological issue he was avoiding dealing with, and taught my niece to not be afraid of pain in the pursuit of skill.

A more illustrative example was just a few days ago. We have a public square near the cafes in town, and two 12 year old boys were throwing around the pieces of a Giant Chess set (2ft tall pieces) the town put out, potentially breaking them. I was annoyed, and saw literally no other adults even caring and I wasn't having it.

From about 100 yards away across the parking lot, I summoned my most masculine energy, aimed my finger at the boys and delivered a "HEY!!!" while staring them down. Everyone of the dozens of people froze, including my wife who had no clue what was coming, and the boys.

For a second the world hung on my pointing finger, their eyes wide, until one of them meekly waved at me. Now here's where the real magic happened.

I dropped the dangerous masculin aspect, and allowed the trickerster energy to flow in, and I smiled, waved, and did some really goofy arm wiggles and laughed. The boys laughed, everyone else was immediately back to calm, and the boys STARTED PUTTING THE PIECES BACK IN THEIR PROPER PLACES.

All I did was yell Hey, do a goofy dance, and went and bought my coffee. I saw the boys shortly after riding their bikes looking very curiously for me in the Cafe, and i could sense both anticipation and admiration in their eyes.

There's a very good chance that one moment just permanently sculpted their behavioral fates.

Words are literal magic, if delivered exactly correctly, and in harmonious flow with the moment.

Negative magic exists too. For instance I could call someone the N word if I wanted to enrage them, however, like all the stories say, negative magic often has negative consequences for the caster. I would put all manner of well delivered lies and harmful manipulation here as well, which also carry dire consequences for the caster if the ensorcelment is broken.

[warboats]

mate that was dead interesting, was not expecting that level of depth but you addressed alot of questions ive had bumping round my head in recent times. nice one

[danmoretti]

I fucking love everything about your channel. Best content on YouTube and frankly you're becoming the heir apparent to McKenna. I mean that as the highest degree of compliment I can give. In reality you're doing your own thing but seem to hold a similar energy to him in terms of your ability to speak.

As a lifelong artist, I have come to understand a "little" bit about the spiritual world. I spent years practicing the known and taught fundamentals of good art. I was getting nowhere with what I knew I wanted to communicate. I spent years thinking, "well if I do this and this I can get there." The result were great paintings that I hated just a few months later. Yet I noticed when I totally let go of thinking, I could create something that would stand the test of time. The problem, I could not stay in the spirit mode for very long. After many years of struggling with this, I concluded that I really need to "severely concentrate " on staying into the spirit of things. It is not haphazardly throwing color and shapes about. It is about connecting and staying connected with a world outside of this world that we were taught socially to believe exists. Yes it exists but only as purpose. I believe there exists a far more vibrant world that exists outside of our socially created world. That we can sometimes tap into both accidentally or purposely. The on going problem is working with this spirit world while having the survival necessity to stay in this socially created existence. Ounce you work with it enough, you will understand how much larger and greater the real world is and what we normally function in day to day is very tiny in comparison, only meant for survival and reproduction purpose. Again, to gain a little more knowledge you must "severely concentrate" often. Religion and science will not get you very far. For they were only created for our survival and procreation. By the way, they were and still are very successful in creating this minimal existence of causing our prolonged survival, procreation and pleasantries.

[yqafree]

This hits me in the feels man! It's hard to explain everything because your presentation interlaces with so many experiences of mine, so many conversations I've had but in mine words and the words of my people, we were far less eloquent and precise. All in all very resonant!

[isaacm]

I'm optimistic for the future of mankind. We're in our infancy. People are slowly but surely waking up to the beauty of all things. I see us in a transition stage of connecting reason to the mystical, and realizing those ancients that we initially brushed off because they were 'unscientific' were right all along. We can't solve everything through pure reason.
