Esoteric Platonism and the Lost Wisdom of the Ancients with Dr. Gregory Shaw|Mind Meld 40422 Aug 202401:53:19

Philosopher, professor, and author, Dr. Gregory Shaw enters the mind meld!

Video Episode 👈

Gregory Shaw is the author of Theurgy and the Soul the Neoplatonism of Iamblichus, and his latest, Hellenic Tantra. He's a world-renowned expert on Neoplatonism, particularly the mysterious philosopher-sage, Iamblichus of Chalcis. Unlike his Platonic predecessors (apparently), Iamblichus engaged heavily in ritual esoteric practices. The heart of said practices were  mysterious rites known as “theurgy.” A Greek word that translates to something like "god-working."

Though no one knows exactly what these practices were, there is a great deal we do know thanks to Iamblichus' extant writings and scholars like Shaw.

And, oh yeah, there's even a wizard battle or two in this episode!
