The Celts are one of the most well-known groups in Europe and one of the least understood. Depending on which classifications are used, the Celts are also one of the oldest civilizations in Europe. In the centuries before Christ, the Celts were spread out across much of continental Europe, and though they are mostly identified with Gaul, evidence suggests they also spread as far as Portugal.

The Druids have been known and discussed for at least 2,400 years, first by Greek writers and later by the Romans, who came in contact with them in Gaul and Britain. According to these sources, they were a learned caste who officiated in religious ceremonies, taught the ancient wisdoms, and were revered as philosophers. But few figures flit so elusively through history, and the Druids remain enigmatic and puzzling to this day.

As the title suggests, Wright examines the similarities between the Druids and a wide variety of their contemporaries, such as the Indian Brahmans, who share a number of religious symbols and practices. There is a fair amount of discussion regarding the symbol of the oak tree in both Druidism and Judaism as well as other faiths.

The chief scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) turns a critical eye toward such practices as telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and psychokinesis. Are such powers really possible? Science says yes. According to noted scientist and best-selling author of The Conscious Universe, Dean Radin, magic is a natural aspect of reality, and each of us can tap into this power with diligent practice.

Publisher's Summary

Centuries before whisperings began, of secret knowledge being handed down from the ancient Greeks, through shrouded fraternities such as the Rosicrucians and Freemasons, the Druids were slowly and steadfastly creating priests and philosophers of their own, akin to the Brahmans of India, the Magi of the Persians, as well as the hierophants and scholars of what would eventually become known to the world as the Western Mystery Tradition.

fascinating

Wish it was longer but was fully in love with the people and history. Also wish i could find the book of druid philosophy it referred to, something about audible is you can't see the word and it's spelling when it's new to you.
Fascinating spiritual informal within as well.

A short book with even less actual information.

With slightly less than 2 chapters of information in a 5 chapter book it could have been much shorter than it already was. The narrator was so enchanted with his own voice that the experience was completely impersonal as a listener. Like a poor Actor reading a script for the 1st time it was painfully obvious he was reading and not speaking to the listener. I will end up buying a book on druids and reading it for myself, but certainly not this one.

Enjoyed the view and history of Druids

If you could sum up The Ancient Druids in three words, what would they be?

A group so common yet in many backgrounds this is seen as some dark religion. The work allowed for the path of religious development and removed the mystery and opened a better understanding of the quality of the people. The knowledge of the people and priesthood is so much more beautifully presented.

What about Adam Hanin’s performance did you like?

Good recording. He has a deep voice tone and clear enunciation. Read with excitement to present the historical data.
