Historia
For the last four centuries, science has tried to account for everything in terms of atoms and molecules and the physical laws they adhere to. Recently, this effort was extended to try to include the inner world of human beings. Gary Lachman argues that this view of consciousness is misguided and unfounded. He points to another approach to the study and exploration of consciousness that erupted into public awareness in the late 1800s.

Lachman brings together many strands of esoteric, spiritual and philosophical thought to form a counter-argument to the nihilism that permeates the twenty-first century.

Historia
Imagination is a core aspect of being human. Our imagination allows us to fully experience ourselves in relation to the world and reality. Since the 17th century, however, imagination has been sidelined and dismissed as "make believe". Four centuries ago, a new way of knowing the world and ourselves emerged in the west and has gone on to dominate human life: science. Imagination has been marginalized - depicted as a way of escaping reality, rather than coming to grips with it - and its significance to our humanity has been downplayed.

The Dark Path is considered Isaac Weishaupt's magnum opus; a result of many years delving into the recesses of occult dogma from the approach of open-minded rationalism. Isaac's journey started with an attempt to separate religion from conspiracy theories, but the agenda clearly showed a connection. The question to be considered is if the agenda of the Illuminati overlaps with the tenets of the occult and whether or not there is an evil influence at play.

The Trap is the "Rosetta Stone" of illusory reality and opens the door to freedom in its greatest sense. Listen to this book and the "world" will never look the same again. The veil of illusion shall be swept aside and the amazing truth this has kept from us shall set you free.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

The success of books such as Elaine Pagels's Gnostic Gospels and Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code proves beyond a doubt that there is a tremendous thirst today for finding the hidden truths of Christianity - truths that may have been lost or buried by institutional religion over the last two millennia. In Forbidden Faith, Richard Smoley narrates a popular history of one such truth, the ancient esoteric religion of gnosticism, which flourished between the first and fourth centuries AD, but whose legacy remains even today, having survived secretly throughout the ages.

Interesting story of the rediscovery of Aristotle
- De John en 12-16-04
Resumen del Editor
The gritty business of politics is not something we usually associate with the occult. But esoteric beliefs have influenced the destiny of nations since the time of ancient Egypt and China, when decisions of state were based on portents and astrology, to today, when presidents and prime ministers privately consult self-proclaimed seers. Politics and the Occult offers a lively history of this enduring phenomenon. Author and cultural pundit Gary Lachman provocatively questions whether the separation of church and state so dear to modern political philosophy should be maintained. A few of his fascinating topics include the fate of the Knights Templar and the medieval Gnostic Cathars, the occult roots of America and the French Revolution in Freemasonry, Gurdjieff and the swastika, Soviet interest in UFOs, the CIA and LSD, the Age of Aquarius, the millenarian politics that inform the struggle with Islamic terrorism, fundamentalism, and more.

By early 1943, it had become increasingly clear the Allies would win the Second World War. Christian intellectuals on both sides of the Atlantic thought the soon-to-be-victorious nations were not culturally or morally prepared for their success. These Christian intellectuals - Jacques Maritain, T. S. Eliot, C. S. Lewis, W. H. Auden, and Simone Weil, among others - sought both to articulate a sober and reflective critique of their own culture and to outline a plan for the moral and spiritual regeneration of their countries in the post-war world.

In this original and riveting exploration, Susan Jacoby argues that conversion - especially in the free American "religious marketplace" - is too often viewed only within the conventional and simplistic narrative of personal reinvention and divine grace. Instead, the author places conversions within a secular social context that has, at various times, included the force of a unified church and state, desire for upward economic mobility, and interreligious marriage.

The Nazi fascination with the occult is legendary, yet today it is often dismissed as Himmler's personal obsession or wildly overstated for its novelty. Preposterous though it was, however, supernatural thinking was inextricable from the Nazi project. The regime enlisted astrology and the paranormal, paganism, Indo-Aryan mythology, witchcraft, miracle weapons, and the lost kingdom of Atlantis in reimagining German politics and society and recasting German science and religion.

Historia
Weikart reveals the startling and fascinating truth about the most hated man of the 20th century: Adolf Hitler was a pantheist who believed nature was God. In Hitler's Religion, Weikart explains how the laws of nature became Hitler's only moral guide - how he became convinced he would serve God by annihilating supposedly "inferior" human beings and promoting the welfare and reproduction of the allegedly superior Aryansin accordance with racist forms of Darwinism prevalent at the time.

For all of India's myths, its sea of stories and moral epics, Indian history remains a curiously unpeopled place. In Incarnations, Sunil Khilnani fills that space, recapturing the human dimension of how the world's largest democracy came to be. His trenchant portraits of emperors, warriors, philosophers, film stars, and corporate titans - some famous, some unjustly forgotten - bring feeling, wry humor, and uncommon insight to dilemmas that extend from ancient times to our own.

Here is the remarkable story of how medieval Arab scholars made dazzling advances in science and philosophy, and of the itinerant Europeans who brought this knowledge back to the West. For centuries following the fall of Rome, Western Europe was a benighted backwater, a world of subsistence farming, minimal literacy, and violent conflict. Meanwhile, Arab culture was thriving, dazzling those Europeans fortunate enough to catch even a glimpse.

The world hates the Church that Jesus founded, just as He said it would (John 15:18). It reviles her doctrines, mocks her moral teachings and invents lies about her history. In every age, but especially in our modern day, historians and political powers have distorted the facts about her past (or just made up novel falsehoods from scratch) to make the Church, and the civilization it fostered, seem corrupt, backward, or simply evil.

The Chosen Wars tells the dramatic story of how Judaism redefined itself in America in the 18th and 19th centuries - the personalities that fought each other and shaped its evolution and, importantly, the force of the American dynamic that prevailed over an ancient religion. Determined to take their places as equals in the young nation, American Jews rejected identity as a separate nation and embraced a secular America. Judaism became an American religion.

Soul Machine takes us back to the origins of modernity, a time when a crisis in religious authority and the scientific revolution led to searching questions about the nature of human inner life. This is the story of how a new concept - the mind - emerged as a potential solution, one that was part soul and part machine but fully neither.

In A.D. 381, Theodosius, emperor of the eastern Roman empire, issued a decree in which all his subjects were required to subscribe to a belief in the Trinity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This edict defined Christian orthodoxy and brought to an end a lively and wide-ranging debate about the nature of God; all other interpretations were now declared heretical.

For the last four centuries, science has tried to account for everything in terms of atoms and molecules and the physical laws they adhere to. Recently, this effort was extended to try to include the inner world of human beings. Gary Lachman argues that this view of consciousness is misguided and unfounded. He points to another approach to the study and exploration of consciousness that erupted into public awareness in the late 1800s.

Imagination is a core aspect of being human. Our imagination allows us to fully experience ourselves in relation to the world and reality. Since the 17th century, however, imagination has been sidelined and dismissed as "make believe". Four centuries ago, a new way of knowing the world and ourselves emerged in the west and has gone on to dominate human life: science. Imagination has been marginalized - depicted as a way of escaping reality, rather than coming to grips with it - and its significance to our humanity has been downplayed.

Good overview of the modern western occult history
This fleshed out several interesting areas and opinions related to occultism that I was unaware of. I feel that this is an intermediary work in this subject, not because it is difficult to read, but because I think it serves best to connect preexisting bodies of knowledge together and to provide a rarer view of the context surrounding important figures and events.
I appreciate that the author admits his own center-slightly-right political location in the book. One cost of this forthrightness is my suspicion of his bias, decision-making and selection of history. But one benefit is my ease and trust that he is at least making his best case for his purpose.
But in the end I still feel that this was more an overview of the connection between dubious and dangerous Utopianisms and Occultism, whereas when I originally chose the book I wished for a more comprehensive model of how politics in general might be related to occultism in general. Nevertheless, this book does well what it actually sets out to do and was enjoyable!

The greatest mystery: There is no secret at all.
The occult politics is truly revealing
As above, so below
People interested in politics will find in this book a mystical drive
People interested in the occult will find a political outlet for the mysteries

Excellent material, but the narration is lacking
Lachman is easily one of the best authors writing on the modern occult stage, but his work is hampered by many, many mispronunciations by the narrator. I can understand being unfamiliar with obscure spiritual terminology, but this man repeatedly blows words you would hear in a seventh grade history class and doesn't appear to know how to make a name that ends with the letter S possessive! The material is good enough that it outweighs the flaws of the mush-mouthed narration, but do keep in mind that it IS a hurdle that you may or may not overcome. Pay close attention to the audio sample before you buy.

Fabulous, especially the ominous closing chapters
Over many years, I kept putting the physical book down (it is fascinating, but other activities somehow always beckoned) so thought I'd make it my first foray into Lachman's work in audio format. Glad I did! His work is spectacular and I highly recommend ALL of his books. He is erudite, clear eyed, dryly witty and endlessly fascinating. Fans of Colin Wilson's work will be delighted (Lachman wrote a top notch bio about Wilson).
The performance was good, although Newton's pronunciation of French words (and other languages) seemed a little...daffy. Jean + 'gene" . Milieu = MAIL-LOO? Hmm. Thule = Tool-AY. Anyway, it is amusing (THINK FAST! Say "schnitzel " three times, GO!) and probably screwed up my own inner narration of foreign words skills! I'd totally take another trip with Newton though.

A great narrative
A wonderfully detailed deep dive into how the occult shaped, and was shaped by, the political realities of the great men and women explored in this book. However, the author's doomsaying in the last chapter, warning of a radical right wing uprising on the horizon couldn't have been more tone deaf or more wrong. Considering it was published in 2008, 12 years ago, and how things have developed since then I'd say Mr. Lachman didn't have as strong a grasp on the cyclical flow of events as he thought. This is made maddeningly clear with the ease in which he dismissed the threat of leftist agitation, which has now manifested the form of burning cities, attempted assassinations of sitting congressmen, and the ever present threat of political violence by the mob that we see constantly today. Perhaps a new book condemning leftist radicalization is forthcoming?

Suspend judgment
When listening to American narrators, one has to be patient with the pronunciation of foreign words or names. But when the narrator grossly mispronounces English names time and time again, the matter becomes rather serious. The names of two known writers are mispronounced throughout. Leigh and Baigent are such two. One is pronounced lay the other as bi-gent. I will not go into French or other words. If you can stomach this anomaly, then the book is mildly interesting.
