Robert Fludd - The Rosicrucian Philosopher And Master Of The Hermetic Arts
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 чер 2024
- Robert Fludd was an English physician, alchemist, and mystical philosopher known for his diverse contributions to fields such as medicine, natural philosophy, and the esoteric arts.
Although not a direct founder of the Rosicrucian Order, Fludd's writings often featured Rosicrucian themes, reflecting a synthesis of spiritual and scientific ideas.
His beliefs were deeply rooted in the microcosm-macrocosm correspondence, a Hermetic concept, and he incorporated theosophical ideas, exploring mystical and divine aspects of reality.
Fludd's most notable work, "Utriusque Cosmi, Maioris scilicet et Minoris, Metaphysica, Physica, Atque Technica Historia," covered cosmology, alchemy, and the mystical dimensions of the universe.
His eclectic beliefs combined traditional scientific knowledge with esoteric ideas, leaving a lasting impact on the intersection of science, mysticism, and the occult during the early modern period.

Extremely insightful. As a person currently being schooled in the secular methods of modern biochemistry, I cannot help but develop a curiosity for the gnostic hermetic mysteries that serve as unspoken subtleties, presenting themselves as I move forward on my scholastic process
If more people like you create and post, and keep posting videos like this i am certain that the long awaited 2nd enlightenment will happen. How can it not, this stuff captivates almost all young adults and a large amount of older ones too. I really hope we can make this world what it deserves to be. Please keep up the great work. Your service will not go un appreciated.

Thank you so much for the kind words.
Peace profound 🌞
dark enlightenment is around the corner brother
🙏
I’m a lifelong secularist/agnostic and I’ve begun to pray more. These prayers have generally improved my day to day. I pray to the cosmic light and to the light within; giving thanks to the cosmos and seeking to know within.
I’m inspired by the mystics of old, thank you.
pray to jesus brother he loves you and is at the end of this path
God is truly amazing.
Many have a history of spiritual emptiness and searching. There’s a reason why people say “ Jesus saves”. On Carl Jung’s tombstone is the phrase “ summoned or not, God exists”…..God is reaching out to you.
I love that God found me . I used to be pretty assertively atheist . then a moment of Grace, and a whole new ‘me’ emerged . I believe every path is the path to God - as @lawilder2059 wrote, God is reaching out . God finds us; it’s just a matter of time . I too often pray to the cosmic light . sometimes I call it the Mother-Father God, sometimes the Great Central Sun, sometimes the cosmic Light; these days it’s mostly by the name of the Light that I address with my heartfelt odes & gratitudes . to me these symbols mean the same thing: the single source of all creation
Hermeticism is just an intellectuals “self importance” candy which subverts Jesus with Lucifer/inanna/moloch and puts the idea of god into the collective conscious/manifestation of mankind. And that the root of god is in a all (a half truth) so that we must (via alchemical math) subtract from us which isn't the divine and bring us back to perfection and usher in the garden of Eden with the knowledge of the the tree of good and evil that satan initially tricked eve into eating and sharing. They’re just acting like it’s something “cool and different” but it’s just regurgitated luciferianism with the added flavor of a Christ complex. I was thinking all of this before I found the word of god and realized Jesus was the light foretold in genesis and who came to show His glory in tangible miracles and allowed himself the worst possible death so he could look the Roman’s in the eyes and forgive them and tell him hem he loves them. Energy is a phenomenon that no one understands or can explain. The energy that filled Christs body and encouraged him to smile while his flesh was torn from his body with whips and his limbs punctured and limp, was Devine. It showed the world for eons that no matter how much you go through, you can smile because there’s a kingdom and there is a king and He loves you. And then look at the physics of light when observed or how it travels through space. The parallels to Jesus are incredible.
God is real, Jesus was his son, Lucifer is trying their best to trick us. God bless brother. I hope you find Him. He love us all🙏
Very Instructive, Bravo ! and Vivat for Mr R. Fludd !
Christopher Lee voice for the win. Takes me back to the Wicker Man. Loved that movie
Praise the most high. I appreciate you and all your hard work my friend. It’s always nice to see your videos
Thank you so much! 🌞
Top tier! Was worth the wait 😊
Listening in while brewing morning coffee here in the Napa Valley ❤
Enjoy :D
Coffee🎉
Same exact activity in Siwa Oasis
Glad I don't live there anymore. Left plasticland for the Far East 8¾ years ago😅
Listening at night with hot cocoa 🥱
I’ve seen this channel grow from few hundreds to 100,000 in few months, congrats.
Thank you for all the work put into this video ❤️🔥
Listening in Ireland.
This is the perfect narration to fall asleep to :0 thank you!
Great stuff!
Another piece of excellent content sir! Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much!
How did I just find this channel! I watch esoterica and I have been looking for something similar. So glad I found this!
Fantastic content!
Would you consider doing a study of the esotericism in the Circle of Fifths?
this is brilliant! really enjoying watching this, im even taking notes lol.
Excellent analysis with some striking quotations from Fludd's writings, as well as from the older Craven account. William Huffman's revised biography (2019) is a recommended source for anyone seeking the latest on Fludd. One of his notable 'exoteric' accomplishments was to publish the first support for Harvey's theory of circulation, which was arguably inspired by Fludd's 'mid-point' analogy of the sun and the heart. What other scientific insights lie waiting in the hieroglyphs?
Only the trained eye can see how much he knew...
Ll) lll! L
This is great. Terence Mckenna was the only person giving quality talks on this 40 years ago, but now you can find all kinds of Alchemical lore on UA-cam!
Gold channel.
Brilliant and clearly presented, thank you. You can see how rudolph steiner was inspired by rosicrucian works and was probably a reincarnated brother himself. Inspiring stuff for the soul!
I be looking forward to your uploads cause I'm into anything esoteric and occult, spiritual etc 👌
Thanks!
Thank you so much, Wadeworth 🌞
Excellent! Much gratitude.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Fantastic analysis as always. I have shared this video with like minded brethren.
Share it publicly & you will find more like-minded souls.
Never thought I'd love slowed down Lacrimosa...Mozart was, is and will be one of the greatest!..
much of this is like a truth I am remembering rather than a first-time hearing
would be interested in seeing you make a video on René Guenon and his thoughts on the age of Quantity over Quality
Guenon is on my list. Will do!
I’m loving this channel so much. Omg. Please, what did you use for the intro? Very soothing visuals.
Premiere pro and Capcut :D
@@agrippasdiary thank you as always and please keep up the wonderful work. We are here supporting and appreciating your efforts 🙏
Please remove the bell noise when asking people to subscribe after listening in a almost trance like state for an hour the last thing I want to hear is that acidic bell, otherwise great content
Peace Profound ❤
This is just wonderful. I am grateful I found this channel. I was curious whether it is known where the image at 51 minutes may be found. I love the duality in images of alchemy where one finds dazzling cosmological images in the texts and images of alchemists themselves in the midst of their studies.
Take a screen shot, crop the image to just the painting and do a reverse image search on Google! I too, love the artworks.
Fantastic as always 🤩
Hey! Thats me!
Such a good lecture
Can’t wait 😊
I Appreciate your work! I can’t wait to see what you have planned for 2024!🎉
Thank you so much. Happy holidays 🌞
i wish this thought could be actioned
At 35:28 as Fludd introduces the Sepiroth within the Tree of Life I noticed; The middle pillar is. However, the right and left Pillars are reverse? ie - Binah on the right and Chokmah is left.
Is this from photography or?
Thanking you with gratitude for a great oration and presentation to the material. LVX
Is this narrated by Christopher Lee? It sounds like him.
Thank You. Well done.
This is going to be a good one!! Time to find out about the true influencers in the early days
Thank you.
Thank you for watching fellow mystic!
Thank you,
In L.V.X.
I always enjoy.
I need a podcast on this stuff!
Thanks
Informative :) 28/12/2023 6pm
Brother you be dropping those jewels. You should start a podcast so we can build.
Maybe one day, why not :D

Curious symbol on top of the sand glass. In Germany, it's called the _Wolfsangel,_ a wolf trap used in antiquity throughout the Schwarzwald and surrounding areas.
Excellent video!!!
Glad you liked it!
@@agrippasdiary I am also a fan of Rene Guenon.
He is not wrong, we are pure light embodied! I’ve seen it. And as he says I read people instantly now!
I relate to this a lot. Within mere seconds of meeting someone, I know where they stand energetically.
I goofed, and left a comment thinking this was a Robert Sepehr premeire.
AD, is this your beautiful voice? Or did you find some AI dripping with gravitas to read this?
Great video, what is the image at 52:10?
Take a screenshot and crop it to just the image and then do a reverse image search on Google! 😏
Can someone recommend some literature as a starting point?
Check out the ”Sources section” in the video description.
Thank you.
Most of what you have been allowed to see so far are just more shadows on the wall. Unless you can find someone that will properly initiate you into the "Mysteries", it is best that you don't listen to those that cannot provide you with anything more than seemingly meaningless ramblings. Having the proper context is the key to all of this and you can start by looking at the way the Sophists are described in Plato's Protagoras dialogue:
“Now the art of the Sophist is, as I believe, of great antiquity; but in ancient times those who practiced it, fearing this odium, veiled and disguised themselves under various names, some under that of poets, as Homer, Hesiod, and Simonides, some, of hierophants and prophets, as Orpheus and Musaeus, and some, as I observe, even under the name of gymnastic‐masters, like Iccus of Tarentum, or the more recently celebrated Herodicus, now of Selymbria and formerly of Megara, who is a first‐rate Sophist. Your own Agathocles pretended to be a musician, but was really an eminent Sophist; also Pythocleides the Cean; and there were many others; and all of them, as I was saying, adopted these arts as veils or disguises because they were afraid of the odium which they would incur.”
These are the class of people that you have been listening to. They don't want you to know the real meaning of their words; they just want to control people by controlling how they view the world. Note that in passage provided above the ideas presented in the first line ("...fearing this odium, veiled and disguised themselves..."" are repeated in the last line ("...veils or disguises because they were afraid of the odium...). Because the Sophists have turned most words into metaphors, they often need to repeat a word or idea in order to indicate that they mean it literally. Here is another example of a "deja vu" from Plato's Theaetetus:
“In the name of the Graces, what an almighty wise man Protagoras must have been! He spoke these things in a parable to the common herd, like you and me, but told the truth, his Truth, in secret to his own disciples.”
In this case it is the word "truth" that is transformed into it's literal meaning by repetition. Protagoras was one of the few Sophists that was willing to bear that title, but as the above description shows, he also chose to veil his meaning. In the Gospels, Jesus was also portrayed as a Sophist trying to hide his true identity and meaning:
"When he (Jesus) was alone, the Twelve and the others around him asked him about the parables. He told them, "The secret of the kingdom of God has been given to you. But to those on the outside everything is said in parables so that, "'they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven!'" Mark 4:10-12
Does this really sound like someone sent to "save" mankind? Isn't it remarkable that Christianity emerged during a period known as the Second Sophistic and yet NO ONE is willing to suggest a connection despite obvious clues that suggest one? (One can even interpret the "tradition" of Veronica of the Veil as a parable that informs initiates that the "true image" or "vera eikon" of Christ is merely a veil.)
"The Second Sophistic is a literary-historical term referring to the Greek writers who flourished from the reign of Nero until c. 230 AD and who were catalogued and celebrated by Philostratus in his Lives of the Sophists. However, some recent research has indicated that this Second Sophistic, which was previously thought to have very suddenly and abruptly appeared in the late 1st century, actually had its roots in the early 1st century." (Wikipedia - Second Sophistic)
Deciphering this allegory also requires being able to determine the hidden meaning of individual words and Plato's Cratylus provides a lesson in this. According to Cratylus there is a "correctness" to names (such a "Veronica") and this correctness can be "disguised" by altering spelling, changing syllables, or using different words that have the same meaning. By some odd "coincidence" the Latin word "cratalis" is often included in the etymology of the word "Grail" which then means (according to the ideas presented in Cratylus) that a "grail" is a metaphor related to deciphering Sophist allegory. While many examples provided in Cratylus are simply metaphors being linked to other metaphors, some examples provide significant insights. For example, "demons" are described this way:
"And therefore I (Socrates) have the most entire conviction that he called them demons, because they were daemones (knowing or wise), and in our older Attic dialect the word itself occurs."
And when Socrates describes the "god" Pluto he states that Pluto is "...the perfect and accomplished Sophist..." So if Cratylus is taken seriously then "demons" are the "knowing" (Gnostics?) while Plato, because of the similarity of his name to Pluto, is also a "god" and a Sophist. If we then apply the ideas of Cratylus to the Bible, the name "Judas" should be understood as being derived from the Hebrew word "yada" which means "to know".
So, for the basics, I would suggest that you read everything authored by Plato, but put it in the context of a Sophist conspiracy that hides everything "in plain sight" and whose ultimate goal is to enslave people by manipulating their perceptions of reality via their allegoric code.
Yay 😊
Agrippa, come visit me in Alaska.

How weird, I played football in Bearsted, and drive through there all the time. I'm going to have to find his house now!! Hopefully there will be a blue plaque. Strangely close to General Wolf and where Churchil lived as well.
“we draw inspiration from the enlightened arabs” a lot of brother RF and CRC thoughts and philosophy and knowledge; is inspired by the arab mystic “ibn arabi” and his doctrine “Unity of being” circa 900-1000BC ; brother CRC was inspired by that knowledge and he brought it back to europe ..
At first, I thought it was going to be a video about Fulcanelli, but this is a nice surprise.
THAT VOICE. Who is the narrator? does he have other places to listen to him? because i could and would all day. Its soothing yet grand like Christopher Lee. Please anybody?
Ahh...the alchemy of coffee ❤
Who is the wonderful reader? He reminds me of Christopher Lee.
That's my thought as well.
The description says that the voice is AI-generated, and based on the voice of Christiopher Lee. I'd say that the resemblence is magnificent.
I miss the narrated opening quote u guys should bring it back
In 2023, Bob Fludd is a plumber in Maryland, USA. Open 7 days a week.
😂😂😂😂😂👍
Oh my God, the secret has been revealed! OMG, the secret it is no more!
He Coo...
religion is better than fiction
Bravo!!
Thank you for watching!
Imagine, receiving a pamphlet on alchemy or Kabala… I’ve watched countless videos, and I still barely understand it
People shall seek for themselves in thought, do you think these writings came from a singular point of consciousness, or an accumulated sequence of events thus evolving consciousness to deploy such writings. When we totally unidentify our thoughts with a point of origin we lose understanding of such word, when you illustrate in parable relative to the nature in which we reside you begin to investigate and how lovely it is. The love on the cross.
Thought this was about how i managed too materialize the philosopher stone... worlds not ready for me anyhow lol.
Yet i posses it. So whos right?
@@timshaw1712 Well, your all stuck in logic prison, I got the stone. I understand the teachings better than all of you. its evident, I Manifested the stone. It is Thrice Great. its subconscious till it isnt foo.

Placing the Sun as the throne of the Creator (or greater instrument if the will) makes a lot of sense if you consider how devastating a single solar flare can be to everyone on earth. And yet at the same time, also being the source of all life on earth through churning heat and shed energy.
If masculine energy is the driving force of life, and feminine energy is the form of life it would essentially recognize the sun as the point of focus for where the consciousness is allowed to enter the body. It would also resonate with astrological principles of labeling the Sun sign as one of the most prominent aspects or features. However, I am still very curious what energy is being shed bu these other planets; unless it is the very light of the Sun itself sent in a myriad matrix around our world, focusing many light points at a single birth.
That is Lucifer worship. Not God.
The Unity between heart and mind is what creates the real Philosopher's Stone. In ancient Greek, the word philosopho meant a “lover of wisdom.”
Thank you for this beautiful video. The fact that he never married and didnt leave an heir might be an indication of what sort of soul he was. It is a virtue in my opinion to let go of this primal desire to marry and have children and dedicate your life to the search for the Ultimate. I dont know what was his intention for not marrying Im just speculating but it was interesting to hear that

It was nicolas flammel who discovered the philosopher stone along with his wife or so i heard from the gnostic sammuel aun weor
I think God is a metaphor , or name of a thing we don't comprehend. Not an actual god, because thats insane but god could represent a science we havn't understood yet and may never will
I think that would still be an actual God

FYI Gehenna is not hell… it’s a common misconception Gehenna is actually a place on the earth referring to the book of Jeremiah Valley of Ben himmon -- one of the biggest lies about Jesus is that He talked about hell… He never actually mentioned it once as Sheol and Ben-Himmon are not hell….
Imagine we still had same medicine, using astrology 😂

Robert's constant insertion of astrological aspects within his writings. Plus his resilience to phrase the angles, weights n measures, fully extolling Christianity,... Trines and squares and holy prayers ha... what a guy!! Your voice or the application had solid tone n timbre too. I enjoyed that flaunt. Paracelsus n his tinctures. Or spoofing off somewhere into jars left steeping in dung. His creepy operations gross me out. Fludd was just as nuts obviously.. but I bet his legacy, whilst not chemistry. Was foundational to the Rosicrucian authors who came later. Ballsy for that day n age.
?? DID the church guys ride him so hard because they clearly COULD tell he was preaching nativities n giving transitional or or predictive tips to lucky punters. But COULDNT outright say so for fear of being accused of heresy themselves?
He sure walked a dang walk im gonna have to find his texts. Delightful.
Good listen too. The narration was spot on.
Sun is our father, not our suns father or its father. Our mother is earth, the possible out of nothing.

If matter is by no means the whole of God but it is an emanation, wouldn't it be a panentheistic view?
Also, where does Fludd says “God is all, and in all, and above all”
1 Corinthians 15:24
Robert Fludd was definitely on the right path. We see the light in the distance but truly understand the vision when we are finally bathed by its essence and presence. We will have a chance to interview him and learn from his experience.
Daniel 12:3,4
Along with Francis Bacon, Fludd was one of England's greatest thinkers . As as above so below
As within, so without. Hen to pan!
Can any Rosicrucian explain the masonic elitism and why you think you deserve to oppress the masses by denying them abundance?
If you even have the Philosopher's Stone, that is.
It is Luciferian as well. Anti-Christ. Anti-God. A ticket to Hell.
@@heterodoxx5300 I follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and it's not easy to find truth, many are hidden behind Christianity whilst practicing other beliefs. I had many revelations and insights which directed me away from other teachings. Jesus is the way this information came to me loud and clear.
@@timshaw1712 I did join and I know they are evil. Also, the Stone is a physical item. See Roerich or the Book of Aquarius.
Ironic his name was Fludd (Flood)
This channel is very suspicious. I dont mean that in a bad way necessarily. I dont think its a trick, everything i looked up was accurate so far. The voice over, the script, the video itself, this is more then a random persons pet project. Who are you!? Tell me your secrets!!! Half joking, i really like the channel. Been an excellent gateway to a lot of things i was interesting in learnimg about.....but still.
