Thanks! There is one I want to listen to, so that link just hits the spot!
In The Archangel Michael he says the Catholic Church banned his writings and endorsed his critics. I did not know that.
The brief critique of Goethe there is fascinating. He says the good/evil duopoly is incorrect in context of evolution. When Michael cast down Lucifer, he was cast into the mind of men! Our mental/intellectual capacities he characterizes as luciferian, balanced against, and this is my most likely ignorant summary, the ahrimanian forces coming from below (math and geometry?), within each person, on the fulcrum of the christlike impulse. What an interesting structure!
We don’t have an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other, but two devils, that encompass our most valuable tools!
We are awake in our mental/sensory capacities (luciferian?), he says, dreamlike in our feelings (partially asleep), and sleeping in our capacities of will. Michael’s plan is to awaken will.
Lol. This perspective is unlikely to appear in the MSM.
Yes, but they certainly demonstrate the Luciferian and Ahrimanic daily! And to hold the ratings they will once in a while tell a sentimental version of the christ impulse – fireman saves kitty from tree.
