Podcast 25 - Vincent Jennings of the “Abbey of Thelema” Film

August 29th, 2007 by rochester92

Vincent Jennings joins us to discuss his new film, “Abbey of Thelema.”

Vincent describes his path, including his membership in a religious cult and subsequent work as a cult deprogrammer, his business success, and interest in the occult, particularly the works of Aleister Crowley. We talk about how the idea for the “Abbey of Thelema” film came about, as well as the amazing circumstances that coalesced for the film to become reality. He describes the project as a magickal working, so perhaps that was a factor …

Vincent also discusses many of the actors and musicians involved in the project and his plans for screening it.

As he says, the film is a “dark comedy” and it is sure to be very interesting. Check it out when you get the chance.

Podcast 24 - David Southwell

August 22nd, 2007 by rochester92

Writer and researcher David Southwell joins us to discuss his work exposing secrets and lies.

In our conversation, David explains how he was always interested in the hidden secrets of the world and how this propelled him to his current vocation. He describes various aspects of research, particularly as applies to eso-research and conspiracies. The importance and relevance of these lines of inquiry are obvious when he describes his relationship with Alexander Litvinenko. Also, not to be missed is his knowledgeable description of disinformation, and how it is spread so effectively.

As David wrote in his excellent book, “Secrets and Lies”:

“The biggest lie you have been told is that you have no power to change the world, but the biggest secret is why, when you realise this, you don’t get up off your backside and do something about it.”

Podcast 23 - Neil Hague

August 10th, 2007 by rochester92

Artist, writer, and visionary Neil Hague joins us to discuss his work and many related subjects. The mastery of painting and drawing that allows him to portray profound ideas is remarkable.

“Neil Hague is a UK visionary artist, authorial illustrator, speaker and writer. Originally trained in graphics and book publishing, he was one of the founders of Bridge of Love Publications. His work has been described as ‘neo-shamanic’ by people who have heard him talk or who have seen his art.

He has had numerous exhibitions of his visionary work in London and his paintings have appeared on book covers all over the world. Inspired by native cultures, ‘universal’ symbols, archetypes and a love of nature, Neil often links and utilises these sources in his own work. In his 2002 book Through Ancient Eyes (Quester Publications), he illustrates a personal and fascinating approach to art and image making.

His latest book Journeys in the Dreamtime was published May, 2006.”

“Cathar Portal” by Neil Hague

Neil and I discuss a wide range of topics including consciousness, creativity, art, mysticism, spirituality, religion, tarot, science fiction, and predictive programming. I think you’ll find Neil’s perspective to be quite interesting and uplifting. Be sure to check out his excellent books - “Journeys in the Dreamtime,” which explores the ‘illusion of time’ and ancient myths and archetypes as understood by the great visionaries, as well as, “Through Ancient Eyes - Seeing Hidden Dimensions - Exploring Art and Soul Connections.”
