      There is ONLY one way & that IS Jesus the Christ whether one wants to believe it or not, we will ALL face our maker one day & it's your choice to choose Him or not bc when we were created, we were given free will to accept Jesus or not (dispensations in the bible explain salvation). Without Him is nowhere I ever want to be!

    Man, this lecture really brought it all together for me. When I was young I prayed to god to show me the truth. I wasn’t ready to hear it at the time so I had to live through years of experience that would set me up to hear this lecture. I followed the new age path for a while. I got to experience it first hand. Now, standing on the other side I can see it clearly for what it is.

      @Elkster Eidolon Hmm. . . I wouldn't say never. If I have no knowledge of a topic you are trying to convey to me, are you necessarily speaking in parable? Do astrophysicist speak in parables when speaking about the universe? Do doctors speak in parables when trying to simplify an explanation to their patients? Some do, but it's usually after having mentioned their findings in a straightforward manner.
      Jesus did the same thing, mostly parable first and then the straight up explanation, while other times he spoke in a blunt manner with no clarification.
      As he said multiple times "Those who have ears to hear, let them hear".

    "When does a person become a trans person? When does a trans woman become a woman? Never. But in hyper reality and simulation, the trans person becomes trans when Society accepts them as such."
    Why would anyone want to be held hostage in this manner by what other people say / do / think? Why would you WANT to live that way? If "becoming" trans is your desire but the only way to do that is dependent on the whole world agreeing with you, you're left miserable, waiting (or trying to force) everyone into doing so. What if they don't? You're going to allow yourself to be unhappy forever because other people won't do what you want? How futile is that? You can't control what the whole world thinks. You can't even control what one person thinks. So... you're going to be miserable your whole life? How can anyone live this way?
    So much of this doesn't make any sense, if you just stop and think it through!

      @@low_vibration This sounds like an attack on Lindsay, so I'll just provide some examples to express what I mean. There is a difference between Gnosis, gnosis and "gnosis." One first has to relay those differences, then, during the conversation, make sure the listener understands which one you're describing at that moment. Additionally, Hermeticism and Gnosticism share some traits, so it's easy to conflate them in some respects. Lastly, there is the concept of "jargon" at play, in that "diversity" has multiple meanings, the one employed in everyday conversations and the one employed by leftists, which is more superficially and arbitrarily applied, thereby creating confusion, some would suggest on purpose.

    Fascinating stuff.
    Father Stephen Andrews recently said, if I may paraphrase, ‘true maturity and humility is the recognition that there are people that perfectly understand your opinions and views, perhaps even better than you do yourself, and yet they may genuinely disagree with you’.
    Coming at this talk from the Hermetic angle, I had to humble myself.
    I can claim that I love Jesus, and that’s true on the level of an emotional cherishing - however, the Lord says “To love Jesus is to obey Him,” so we have to know His Will in order to be even able to follow Him. If it is true that the Hermetic metaphysic is deceptive, we must understand it and undermine it by exposing the ultimate conclusions of its presuppositions.

    Hermeticists do not believe that everyone must participate in the belief in Hermetics in order to "go to heaven."
    It is the belief of the Hermeticist that some people will change and some will choose the same path every time. Hermeticists accept this as fact, meaning nobody can force one to change.
    It is the view of the Hermeticist that one can transmute his behavior and life path through alchemical methods.
    Forcing will on another is actually the opposite of Hermetic belief...it is the belief of the Hermeticist that only the individual can and does have the ability to change himself.
    I appreciate the interest in Hermetics, and implore you to keep staring at it, but to those who want to explore it genuinely, I cant even recommend this speech as a good start.

It is strengthening the self, adding momentum, gathering momentum, so it is taking you in the opposite direction. Whatever you do to be free from the self also is a self-centred activity. Everything you stand for, believe in, experience and aspire to is the result of thought. And thought is destructive because it is nothing more than a protective mechanism, programmed to protect its own interests at all costs. It is fear that makes you believe that you are living and that you will be dead.What we do not want is the fear to come to an end.

All the technologies, infrastructure is made by what emerges from people, when many observe and live and experience a common thing and make something of it, and also to serve it (biology, reproduction, genetics), it's the product of the society and culture, so no not all it ever does is only for itself as though it exists in a vacuum, even consciousness arises from the work of a multitude (of neurons), and then the neurons from the brain which exists through the support of the body and so on.

    My red pill was learning the suicide rate among trans people actually goes up after transition. I was affirming trans people believing the opposite to be true. I don't buy the argument the reason suicide goes up after transition is because society is transphobic, at least not today. That might have held water 20 years ago, but today trans is celebrated and transphobia is marginalized. Once I understood my position was increasing suicide among the unfortunate people with gender dysphoria, I dropped it. Then I started questioning many other positions I held, and I was painfully ejected from the magic circle. I share this hoping it will help other Nudist Courses listeners reach their woke or woke-adjacent friends and family members.

    Actually Lindsay's understanding is incorrect. The axiom as above so below means that the process of life is the same at all scales, the scale of an individual person, the scale of the planet or the scale of a society or the universe. The principles of life are the same everywhere.
    For instance yin + yang => creation is the same at all scales.
    In the political world society naturally falls into a masculine and feminine component, the right and the left. This always happens, and it is their integration and mutual responsibility that leads to growth just like a healthy marriage.
    Further aspects of this principle are that the man must be man in full and likewise the woman because if not their integration is not possible. And this is indeed the situation today with both sides of politics being of a low level and society as a whole decaying. There is mutual hatred but no mutual understanding.
    The answer, and the place to look, is in the large violent external actors that are causing the destruction.
    These are corporations, billionaires, mechanisation, and the loss of catholicism.
    The corruption always starts on the right and at the top, because only they have the privilege of corruption.
    This has resulted in a response from the left / woke as they defend themselves.
    The solution is not as Lindsay contends, more warfare .... but it is the removal of external parasitical behaviours and forces. Then the restoration of both sides, and then a society based on trust.
    Most political commentary happens on the internet and in order to obtain market share they tend to stoke up one side. A good man however must foresake such attention and materialism, and instead tell the truth. He must sacrifice something.
    I notice also he is standing in front of a giant Ourobouros, but seems to be criticising it. This is a strange mixture.

The right/left split isn't 2 points in the west because the west operates on a tripartite system, so its more like the right has the merchants, the nobility, and the left has the "church" which has become the universities and the media arm of the state. The current system is just a compromise between the church and the merchants in which the merchants hold most of the power.

      My first break out of the cult of leftism was when I used to be a The Young Turks subscriber early on. This was from around 2007 to 2009. Back when they operated out of a dingy studio and streamed at such a low quality bitrate it was near impossible to see what's going on.
      It wasn't *them* that woke me up directly though. I used to frequent an IRC channel that they used to use. IRC, you remember those days? Before the plague that is Discord.
      It was this one European idiot - someone from Norway. Who made me realize something was wrong with the beliefs of the left. Name started with a b as his handle, was further left than I was at the time.
      It was when Bill O'Reiley made some comments about grape (remove the g in the word, having to self-censor because UA-cam's algorithm is just as weak minded as these leftists). He said something like women need to take their safety into their own hands. A lot of stuff that non-woke people would go "yeah, that makes sense" - i.e. stay out of high crime neighborhoods, carry pepper spray or exercise their Second Amendment rights, don't wear provacative clothing if you feel the place you're going to is secluded or risky, etc.
      When I said O'Reiley might have a point, he went BALLISTIC on me, saying that I'm a misogynist, hated women, that I was "victim blaming" (first time I heard that word used), and that the woman was not at fault for being an SA victim.
      I responded by saying "nowhere did I say that, I was saying women should take the necessary precautions to reduce their chances of being a victim" and that I would STILL obviously believe the victim (this was when I was still a leftist back then, today I would ask for evidence and proof before coming to any conclusions).
      He wouldn't have any of it and continued to go on a long rant about how women have been eternal victims of oppressive systems, etc. etc., the usual bs.
      At that point I let him run his mouth. Every time a social justice related issue popped up, like the 'wage gap' myth, I would question the veracity of the statement, and he'd lose it again. The 1 in 5 college campus grape myth? Same thing.
      This was back in 2012, I think. That is when I knew something was going on with the left and that I had to get the hell out of here because the ship was being invaded by some crazy mfers.

    Knowing Good and Evil
    Gen 3:5 (serpent)
    and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
    Gen 3:22 (LORD God)
    Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil.
    Gen 3:5 (Serpent)
    For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened
    Gen 3:7 (narrator)
    Then the eyes of both of them were opened
    “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I have said you are “gods"’?
    I really don't see how the Serpent lied, if everything it said is backed up by the text as being true.
    Then you could say they going to eat of the tree of life; at some point in time, but are now Eternally Denied, so they now will surely die. But this was never wrote about, or were they told in the text, which tree is which in the center of garden.
    And if you believe they "Spiritually Died" that day also, I would say you are adding text that is not there. We all know the Lord God made the fruit of knowledge seem like it was poisoned, saying you will die the day you eat of it. That was a lie, from the Father of Lies in the garden, spoken about later on.
    How can you spiritually die when the Lord God says Man has become Like him...or this Us mentioned? That is ridiculous. Unless you believe the Lord God is spiritually dead, then that would make sense being as him.

In light of what you wrote, that makes some sense. Enki also had several other names in different cultures. Greek-Poseidon, Roman-Neptune and now possibly Thoth to the Egyptians.

How frightening it must be to even conceive of heaven on earth for Christians. Through hermeticism, which incidentally is “as above, so below,” one reaches within oneself, solves one’s own spiritual malaise, and thus brings heaven into themselves here, now, on earth. What you were saying about hermeticism being a cult which requires everybody to participate and nobody has any choice sounds way more like Christianity to me than hermeticism. i’m gonna listen to the rest of this presentation with an open mind, but we’ve started out pretty rough brother.

      He’s talking about hermetic thinking as it pertains to political activism and religious liberty… he’s talking about how hermetic principles affect the ideologies underpinning our society and current political movements… which is why he used that as a segue into the definition of social justice as a focus on “group” rights vs individual rights… in fact he stated exactly what you said hermeticism is, so it seems you’re at least in agreement on that. Considering how much Christianity has influenced policies and thinking over the years, I think it’s fair to say “pot calling the kettle black” however, in terms of the point he’s trying to make is rather how the ideology affects the implementation of said politics in the CURRENT modern socio-political institutions… specifically in the context of gender ideology. Rather than place responsibility on the individual, there has been an attempt to police the thinking of the individual in order to dismantle individuality in the name of inclusivity… he even said at the start “I don’t care if you’re a hermetic and you wanna go meditate in a cave for years… but I do care when those ideologies become a cult” (something along those lines). It’s not that the hermetic principles require that everyone participate, it’s that the people pushing these ideologies, who have been influenced by gnostic and hermetic thought, require everyone to get on board. And if you don’t you’re an evil hateful transphobe.
