Friends,
I’ve been longing to introduce you to Christian occultism more deeply, and particularly the work of Stylianos Atteshlis, also known as Daskalos. So I’ve invited one of my spiritual teachers, who was also a student of Daskalos’s. author Daniel Joseph, onto the show to explore why Christian occultism matters now more than ever.
If you’re turned off by the “Christian” part, but interested in the “occultism” part, listen through; you’ll find that there’s plenty there to think through. In fact, we don’t mention Christianity as such very much, but it runs through the work and practice. And if you’re turned off by both, Daniel and I break down all the seemingly hocus pocus terminology and make it intelligible for secular listeners.
Daniel runs workshops for The Researchers of Truth, who carry on Daskalos’s work, and I highly recommend you check them out.
Daskalos’s work, via Daniel and his spiritual partner, Aki Toshimutsu, has changed my life, and I know many people can benefit greatly from engaging with it.
Daniel and I discuss:
-
Who Daskalos is, how Daniel came to meet his teachings, and why his work matters so much.
-
What are the “Seven Ascended Masters”? (We really do get to it by the end of the ep)
-
How Westerners often reject Western esotericism
-
How religious Christianity has wounded people and how that Christianity is much different than Christian occultism and esotericism
-
Daskalos’s healing miracles, and how proximity to spiritual truth can itself be healing
-
What the human being is and what dreams are
-
Why dead people often don’t know they’re dead (and how you can tell if you’re dead or not)
-
The different esoteric bodies
-
Why some esoteric masters are public, some remain hidden, and one that was recently incarnated
-
The illusion of time
-
Where humanity will be in a million years and why nuclear war and climate change won’t be the end of us
-
The theory of understanding and practice of engaging with elementals
-
The skill of spiritual listening, versus secular hearing
-
Being frustrated when we don’t have spiritual encounters
-
Why Conner was all nervous about this episode, and how to deal with this nervousness when you’re about to speak with someone
