Off the street those that are ready and waiting for you I'm telling you my my beloved brothers and sisters yeah these

Tactics are being employed against you um and so the trans-dimensional court has decided that it's our it's our time to break up the conspiracy what do we do when we go in for a conspiracy a trans-dimensional conspiracy you won't remember now

We have to start at the bottom and we have to move our way up right you only get to the top of the conspiracy after you've worked the bottom because the bottom will give you all the information you need to get to the top right okay fantastic fantastic so without further ado

I want to set us a theme tonight just to burn some incense if you will just to hollow this place what you're about to see are a few lines taken from iamblicus I am

[Music]

Thank you

[Applause]

Foreign

[Music]

Yeah it's nice to see that Civilization we have to remember that when we go on one of these missions that we're doing this in honor of that tradition yes you know in order of that right so we've uh here we are here we are let's um give me a second

Open up this is the trans-dimensional authority you do not have a right to remain silent everything that you say is being used against you in a trans-dimensional court of law you do not have the right to an attorney nor will one be presented for you

Your words will be your judge I like that last part it's not you know come on that's the that's what you need to go in with right that's what you need to enter bring him in now just to let you know bad cop has been put on uh temporary Duty for now so

Um we're gonna go with this thing Full Steam bring him in bring him in I want you to watch now um we don't even need to get into names are not important this individual is not important his identity is not important what is important is for me

To show you how to enforce that space

Where reality is everything yeah I we want the most precise science possible and I don't want you fooled I didn't want to say it I didn't want to say it but as we as we are handed

Um this process to enforce you know as we find it's our duty as Servants of the muse keep those Waters clean I would be remiss in my duty if I didn't show you what is going on so that you can find someone that may sound like they're saying good things but they may end up taking you which happens a lot academics are the worst at this they can take you somewhere dark you can end up somewhere dark and then next thing you know there's going to be

Some sort of something dropped into a drink you're going to be coming to with all sorts of memories that you're not even sure are reality yeah that's what can happen I am trying to prevent you from falling into the hands of this type of tactician this is called the Larry Nasser

Yeah the category of our warrant today

Is called Larry Nasser yeah yeah one who can use deception

Based on an appeal to Authority right get that right he was a do who's Nasser remember we're bringing the past and the future into the present who is Nasser he's that um D.O doctor of osteopathy who

Who ended up raping uh generation of gymnasts

Yes

Yeah his appeal to them was an appeal for salvation his manipulations things that you and I and they know were molestations right his manipulations were going to give them don't worry don't trust me I'm I'm the authority

Right he's a do I just want to say one thing I got to sit in surgery um in Guatemala repairing the foot of a young girl that a do from America had come down to and almost killed so I was with a team of Surgeons I'm not a surgeon I was in carried supplies did grunt work but I was with an orthopedic surgeon who rescued her who rescued her yeah so MD

Is to D.O as classics

Is to religious studies okay we're if we're gonna go in and serve this warrant we have to know our stuff we have to be well within the trans-dimensional law we have to know exactly what we're going in for what we're doing this can't be sloppy so I'm going to give you my perspective today and today we're just gonna see okay what you know just because somebody tells you they're an authority and they watch if they use we that made up we is supposed to be we Scholars that's not you dummies because you are dumb dumb

[Music]

That's why you can't get this stuff on your own you have to come to me when you come across that attitude what do you know you're not in the museum anymore right you're you're in an auction somebody is buying something do you smell it everybody here smells it in the congregation I know you do okay all right get your uniforms on we gotta go and and and meet the witness here let's question them let's start right now we're gonna suck his words right out of his mouth again doesn't matter who it

Is I want you to pay attention to technique go ahead this solution is known as theorgy and was developed most profoundly by the Syrian platonic philosopher yamblicus in this episode I want to explore the philosophy behind Theory why it developed in its lasting impact even today into Christian sacramentalism if you're interested in Magic hermetic philosophy Alchemy Kabbalah or the history of the occult make sure to subscribe here to esoterica and check out my other content on topics and esotericism included curated playlists also if you want to support this kind of work of making

Accessible scholarly and yet free content on topics and as a terrorism here on YouTube I'd hope you consider taking a look at my patreon maybe a one-time donation with PayPal you can use the super thanks option below the video you can also just buy like a pretty boss black metal as a character shirt over at our merch channel so check that out as well

Blah boss boss

Merch

Is this the sacred knowledge is this what to the to the one that receives the esoteric is this what happens

No you cannot operate the mystery my friends and you know you can't you cannot operate the mystery as a carnival show that's all you are if you are selling it your free coverage of the material right if you are selling it where are the plates do we get the where's Paul's buttocks just a minute I'll be right with you Mr I just got something here who is this it's Paul the Apostle take off your pants Paul take them off no I said take them off all the way all the way Paul all the way

Foreign

He persistently does that why would that be a big deal look you're investigators right you're investigators the fact that he's using that why tells you a lot it tells you where he was educated it tells you continentally where he was educated yes and if you know the classics right here's the scale that we're working on tonight one to ten a 10 is your classicist

A one is not and among classicists you could rank them too some are good some are great some are like Legends right so um yeah and they all have different Arts right some are good at this some are good at that right it's fantastic fantastic but tonight we're going zero to ten let's get in he's going to talk to you about the urchin specifically I am blackis not yamblicus he's got a western tradition through the Latin isn't that interesting I can already tell this person is full don't don't

I haven't watched hardly any of this person but let me guess Kabbalah

Do you smell it it's medieval influence movements that we're trying to say language is power therefore our language is the language of God yeah we don't go to that medieval stream have you noticed that we shoot for the original on the classical side of the cosmos right when I say Cosmos I don't mean it like universe which you're gonna see here in a second you're gonna see here in a second yeah okay okay let's get to it um speak up buddy tell me tell me something give me

Your name rank and serial number go ahead jewels in the overall platonic process of a gnosis well in a sense that's part of a long tradition of platonic intellectualizing and even frankly religious antinomialism

Okay now we're done we know where we are right I just realized I've been in this room before I've been in this room before okay number one just for the sake of for the sake of you know method for there's a French judge here we can't we gotta hit the landing right it's not anti-nomism

That's not a word anti-nomian can yield antinomianism why is it important to say that am I saying you're not this or that no no I'm saying as an investigator look what that means that'll tell you exactly where you are with this person education wise and what they've been exposed to okay that's number one sloppy philology

Right me and the guys and gals from classics uh we're gonna take a mark off as judges yeah deal with it yeah otherwise he's throwing Greek at you he knows this gnosis okay and that's how I know where we are that's how I know where we are and I have flashbacks all of a sudden and I'm getting sweaty you know why because I have to go to philosophy graduate course philosophy two

Professors an Aristotelian and a platonist both of them philosophy phds little bit of Greek just enough Greek admittedly to be able to work through Plato and to be able to work through Aristotle

Laughs two professors one conference room 20 philosophy PhD

Students the various stages in their program and one classicist I was the token class assist why do you need a classicist do you know what these classes were for me I had the text of what they were reading and I would sit there with the text and they would talk across for 52

Minutes

And then asked me a question hey what does it say in the Greek and I would tell them and they would say oh and then back to another 52 minutes of continuous word salad

And the whole time I couldn't help but think Plato was getting somewhat shorted yeah ideas ideas are not for the museum I don't want your ideas and you don't want mine or I'd be passing around the plate and I'd be telling you to put money in it I don't want your ideas you don't want mine they all suck anyway right what do we deal with we deal with the evidence right can I get an amen we deal with the evidence okay play them get give him some more let speak up

Please let's hear remember technique we're looking for technique go ahead honestly it is not surprising to me in the least that the plateness were hounded that's something that came to ancient Heretics by the conservative helian establishment I mean Plato was ultimately a cosmic monotheist who helped that mathematical principles were ontologically primary ditto Aristotle

Held that a fundamentally unified unmoved mover composed of pure mental activity was the source of all causation in the cosmos platinus and porphyry more or less They Carried that tradition straight forward paying some lip service to the traditional cult but ultimately arguing that only an intellectual an inward intellectual turn could ultimately prove Redemptive

Right wait wait I'm sorry I'm sorry that was rude of me I just kind of drifted off there into my own world um just a couple of comments number one Redemptive no doesn't fit the context number two right listen to the words that are being used right the conservative

Hellenic establishment

What are you smoking yeah what are you smoking you're sure that they had problems with the conservative okay I thought I was confused I thought this was um I thought this was something about the day mysterious I thought we were going in that direction right I don't care about what you think right neither does anybody else

We do not care about your ideas but if it makes you feel better ours either yeah why don't you pull out some texts and let's look at some text instead of what you're doing because you're taking me back to philosophy grad school and I know there is an edification for you people I know I know philosophy doctors of philosophy if you're one of them I get it I get it it's like a communal

Cognitive coitus Foundation you just check in and slide your card and you get complete coital satisfaction in a room full of people I get that I understand your drug hey we're here with the languages though and we're just interested in what is being said right so can we get to that go ahead Chewie maybe this will get through to him go ahead and win porphyry Attack the extraordinarily ancient Cult of the Egyptians even by Greek standards extraordinarily ancient the applicants just seemed to have had enough of it his counter-offensive

Against his own teacher and really the hitherto history of platonic religious antinomianism was his reply to a porphry in a text that we now know as the mysterious that's the Latin title given by facino in the Renaissance when he translated it now I'm not even going to try to attempt a summary of the de mysteries in this episode it's honestly an extraordinarily complex text which is just full of philosophical Insider baseball it assumes a sophisticated understanding of philosophy up to that point the inner workings of debates within platonic

Philosophy specifically the religious and ritual landscape of the time and the particular elements of porphries mostly lost criticism of Egyptian rituals so you know that I usually recommend people just you know dive into primary text whatever possible but I gotta be frank with you this one is gonna you're gonna need swimming lessons before you dive into this one okay

This date is not going well yeah I'm I'm thinking I know I want to pull out Bangkok but okay um what was the advice kids when you get any advice to not do something I want you to know that you should immediately run and do that this is a satanic principle

Okay why okay is it just me tell me should we try to pay attention to this tell me guys do you feel stupid because he just said that you are too stupid to figure out how to read this text you are too stupid and since he's throwing Greek around surely

Surely he must be a classical philologist no he's not he's a religious studies guy yeah yeah and right away you know okay okay I know I know you know a high percentage a high percentage of these guys that end up in Academia these guys that end up in the trials right you know it's a part of a team your honor we're just part of the team right these are the tactics that are reaching out and grabbing you don't even realize that this is mental you need to be able to see the invisible thing that's going on the Watchers call him fingers

I think that's a little bit inappropriate yeah hit it Chewie yeah his concept of fearji thus yamlicus maintains three distinct registers philosophy which is logical and discursive theology God talk which is discursive but whose Origins are actually super logical and Theory which is neither Bound by Logic nor expressive discursively at all the day mysterious captures this distinction really well he argues philosophically in the text he discusses theology systematically but it has its origins in the non-discursive experience of religious Revelations of various kinds of experiences such as rituals sacrifice divination the epiphanies or the appearances by supernatural beings

And yes while it's now in Vogue for whatever reason to argue that the idea of the supernatural has its origins in abrahamic religious conceptions or early modern Christian conceptions of a natural and a supernatural world this concept really originates in yamblicus For Whom the gods diamonds Heroes Etc literally exist Hooper fousis that's the word that's the word he uses they're above nature so montologically just above this physical Cosmos and thus their appearance as an epiphany is just literally Supernatural in character literally who profuses

Okay now just as a technician as an artist who does this that phrase is not a word prepositional phrase it's two words number one number two it means on behalf of because foosis is a goddess

And by the way who bear doesn't take a nominative any of my beginning Greek students would know that yeah so what can we tell about this Authority he's about to say we first of all you're too stupid to understand what the source is saying that's a big mistake number one go right to the sources as soon as somebody points out you're too stupid for this the think way you should react is thank you for pointing out what I really should dive into thanks they told me the drugs are not there they're not

Using the drugs why would they do such a thing right what did I know run right there right right there in that pool and and you find it you find it um uh gorgeous yeah so his Greek where do I give him on a Greek as a uh full-fledged PhD in classics yeah um I would put him as a non-class assist probably a philosophy or religious studies and I would say despite the fact that his Greek is terrible his ancient Greek is terrible despite that despite the fact that he uses it like a philosopher

Philosophers phds are like people imagine giving a lightsaber to somebody who you know might use it to I don't know turn the oven on you know um they might try to fix part of their house with it right you don't give that samurai sword to a child right and that's what philosophy and religious history Scholars are like I'm sorry but it is we read texts all day right it's just the way it is you can't get by that that's our strength all right so his he's not even

On scale so so far you know he's like two or three max right and all the people we talk about I'll give ratings so you know I have to I have to give you my just input um hit us again we've got a couple more of these hit us again not only does this ego driven selfish Endeavor further enmesh their souls in their bodies but it also attracts malevolent beings which seek to further manipulate those Sorcerers and goace often

Dooming them the sorcerers and goes really you know it's the same thing right you know it's the same thing but no he doesn't he's throwing at you a Greek word because he's trying to capture the authority you'll believe him and you'll say yes yes give me the procedure that will take me to the esoteric divine

Give it to me is what you're saying right when he's got you at that point when he has the authority remember Ryan the priests have authority you're not supposed to object doesn't matter right when when Parts start burning

And you know that this is not a place that you should be it's the authority of the priest or the gymnastics coach you know the national gymnastics coach it's their Authority that keeps you

Servile keeps you within that service yeah right that's why he threw a goace at you because you don't know I know most of you I know 99 of you don't do any Greek I know you don't I could have just said something that means clown fish rise you wouldn't know it's a game right go look at the merch go look at the merch as soon as somebody mentions merch right you know you know you're right there so see this is you know this warrants is a public service right for her we do this for her okay give us

Another one this way John Lucas and Augustine are actually surprisingly on the same page even for kind of similar reasons these are quasi-theological acts not done for the greatest good yeah what was that yeah the theory about so and so and so and so being like yeah blah blah blah and this will put you under the ground because you have yet

To hear a single primary source bam and that's how we get them with the warrant right every time we go into one of these warrants no there is a primary source right here this target is primary and I am going in if somebody comes around they're talking this way in that way and Plato and Aristotle and this and where did wait wait I thought isn't this are we supposed to hear I am Lucas is that once you let him speak why don't you let him speak I'll tell you why he

Doesn't let him speak I tell you why because we're going to get in we're going to get into the apartment and when we get inside that apartment to serve this warrant this trans-dimensional warrant right he's gonna have somebody there with him you say what it's an academic thing right it's an academic thing look for the one that's with him when he gets arrested are we talking about Jesus yes

Yeah we are love it hit us again with Mr esoteric again these are accounts of devotion not showing off to your homie that you can summon a water diamond don't show off your theological Powers because you will lose them and another dime ones will kill you yeah okay I think that was it was kind of funny like huh I guess that's irrelevant this guy can whoever he is can whoever we're watching can be funny or not that's irrelevant good good for somebody to try to introduce a little joking you know what I mean

That's nice kind of like it I don't know if I'm with his sense of humor or not shout out by the way to the comedian who's using the material he's using this material for comedy that's got to be the most difficult gig on the planet nice job nice job um so uh the very last thing he said um not the diamond

Do you know what a diamond is he'll give you some definition came up with after translating one of the classical authors that ended up being some kind of school movement yeah you guys know how it works we all in end up in the gymnasium right but that word that he used he tried to make a plural the diamonds

You just made it took a this is a violation linguistic violation this is this will get you five to seven in a linguistic penitentiary

What are you gonna do by marrying a Greek word to an English to an English s what is that doing for you everybody knows that's not everybody in Classics knows right that's not so again what does it tell you it tells you that he's not good with the sword he is swinging a samurai sword and somebody is gonna get hurt right one

Of his audience members is gonna get a psyche shaving of the psychic lobes right I know he's just a kid he can't swing it very hard right but that thing Cuts that's a sword he's cutting with yeah so you may get you may get hurt all I'm saying is when we're on the playground everybody needs to work together to keep an eye out for this type of activity this is stranger danger stranger danger right

What is the offense what is the real charge the charge is a type a felony

Yeah it's a Taipei trans-dimensional felony violation of the Sacred and honorable space of the muse this is a violation of the Muse yeah it is it's 63 counts of violations of the muse what greater teacher would you want than somebody

Who was that pure Cosmic Storyteller whose words when she sings them make creation

Yeah you want that source and that source is real that source is not sloppy right she gets the crown the crown is for her achievement her Oddity right good Dory and value her Oddity that's her achievement that Crown is not crown of England just a marker for a potentate coming from so no that Crown is the performance the winning performance right that is coming from the sources that this um individual whose name doesn't matter and who's I wish the best with his uh career um this gentleman Um is Measuring Up

[Music]

To a non -trustworthy source of information yeah yeah why okay this is my field I'm telling you guys from 30 years experience in several universities lots of papers right and a book and a book that was several books but a book that went to a level of you know where the London times was saying this is the last while Frontier of Classics right this kind of research is the last one Frontier of classics we need to hold this ground and we're not going to hold this ground as sacred

If we're listening to word salads of people that are not properly trained yeah we don't need ideas just so you can see the invisible side and I'm going to play the video one more time just so you can see the invisible side of all of this you gotta ask yourself what does the direction

Take you to where do you end up where do you end up if your teacher does not have good technique you'll never surpass them which is what every good teacher wants they want to send that student up on their shoulders up to that next level right so yeah so

Um that's all that's all we've served um he's he uh this type of approach has been served for for our benefit let us stay with those who maintain principles of reason and Science and a dedication to the Gods so that we know we will always fall on the side of Justice always let's watch that video One More Time Chewie this is actual this is actual for tonight this is the one bit of I am Lucas that you're actually going to get these are hit

[Music]

Foreign

[Music]

Foreign

[Music]

Has something that was that was my translation and that was actual that was actual I am Lucas and I recommend to every one of you as a matter of fact now I will take it personally if you don't I would appreciate it if you can find a good copy of iamblicus and take a look at it on the Mysteries right and take a look at it and let me know what you think fantastic fantastic depths in the work and you will love to go there you will

Love to go there um Chewie wanted me to do you want me to plan a cup here throw throw another one up there I don't know let's see what happens here go ahead noetic theory is maybe the final combination of the spiritual and the intellectual something I again suspect but I don't know that is perhaps related to the mathematical spirituality a la pythagoreanism meditating perhaps on the ultimate most abstract ontological nature of the cosmos as the dialectic of the one the hand the limit the perath and the unlimited the the apparon

Okay if if you guys don't feel it yeah I feel distinctly where's the Dole can anybody give me the doll I want to show Chewie where I feel like I've been touched yeah I hit another one should we come on that way this is an extraordinary text from a religious studies point of view as well he inhabits three different identities at some level as he's working through this text so how does one know when one's theory is effective well primarily by Supernatural manifestations especially Mantic or prophetic knowledge of the future

He didn't say that we yet but he's about to the fact that we can get it and you don't right I can't I can't that's enough right he said enough it's all it's all perfectly you know we're gonna send in the cleaning crew you know what I mean this is this is the way it is um people uh let us all stay protected within that capacity for reason

Let's be technicians who are experts let's be the samurai who know how to use those swords right let's not stumble all over the place and hurt ourselves and other people with that with brain cutting brain cutting instruments yeah

Um next time we have an indictment I may not be able to give you as much uh uh as as much notice but I'll let you know we're working up up keep that in mind we're working up the organization to the top we're going right to the top so everybody's pleased they're waiting they've been asking me when are we going to start bringing people in we started um thank you very much for maintaining your professional demeanor Chewie did you want to slap up there any comments

That anybody said that for somebody who asked about my name my name is almond right it's my middle name David Charles almond Hillman that's my full name I don't mind giving you my full name it's out there in print anyway um but uh they're asking about the David I don't use David because David was a murderer right and there's something about murderers that you can't bear the name the name is everything within the magic right and if you bear the name of a murderer you bear that blood

So you know I didn't want to name my kids Adolf for a reason right they're ghosts associated it's corruption so that's why I use my middle name almond I I'm I like it I like it um fantastic fantastic were there any other comments yes it's just it's a video where he's saying okay give us a couple throw a couple up there anything that was really I wanted people to have a I just want to see what people having concerns about you know what I mean by telling the people yeah

Okay anyway we'll sort this out um I don't want to waste your time thank you very much and I want to give a shout out to Chewie who's doing fantastic video work and keeping production going so thank you for coming to the cosmic Court do you see how we need to be professional and not approach this as a personal problem this is not we're not here as psychologists right we're here enforcing the dictates of the trans-dimensional court right we are the Museum we are Defenders the last line of keeping that connection open hail Satan

[Music]

Don't bother talking
