Terrence McKenna On Magic and The Hermetic Tradition

This episode of The Alchemical Mind serves partially as a departure from our discussion on The Hermetica, but also as an added bonus with additional information on the influence of this work and the traditions it is based on on Western theology and philosophy. I'm sure many of you know Terrence McKenna from his work with psychedelics, but he was also deeply knowledgeable in theology and philosophy, so for this episode, I bring you a speech from McKenna on the hermetic tradition, magic, and mysticism.  I will return on Monday with the final part of our discussion of The Hermetica as I dive into a discussion of mystery schools in preparation for what will serve as a basis for much of podcast for the month of September.  If you haven't subscribed yet, be sure to do so on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
