A Zoroastrian gives a good introduction to Zarathushtrian theology, showing how simple Zarathustra made things and other religions complicated it afterwards.

Interesting talk show where two Wiccans explain what witchcraft is and isn't and debunk myths about it.

Raymond Buckland & Scott Cunningham on Twin Cities Live in Minnesota. Ray & Scott prove to be the greatest spokespersons for the craft in this video. Humor and dignity.

Part 2

Great documentary by Raymond Buckland where he explains the history of Wicca and Paganism, and how it came to be smeared by Christianity during the Middle Ages. Very interesting, informative, and educational. Debunks myths about Wicca and Paganism. A must see for any open minded truth seeker who has never heard from a Pagan insider.



Really interesting black and white documentary from 1969 called "Legend of the Witches". It talks about witch folklore and creation story and shows how a ritual is done. Wow very cool. Shows naked women during the ceremony too.

This is a good comparison of Hinduism vs Christianity and Islam. It clearly shows why Hinduism makes more sense and is more open minded, tolerant, and inclusive. A must see for any comparative religion seeker. Hinduism resonates with me and feels far more natural than the Abrahamic religions.

In this video I share some things that indicate the Pagan path may be right for you:

1) You love being outdoors
2 ) You enjoy observing the seasons change
3) You believe there is a higher intelligence or force, but you are uncomfortable with the accepted notion of an all powerful, perfect God
4) You want a spirituality that embraces the sacred Masculine & the sacred Feminine
5) You have an interest in ancient civilizations
6) You are uncomfortable with the excessive materialism in the world

Interesting podcast on Gnostic Radio about the occult and mysticism in Russia.

Description:

Russia has always been a bricolage of spiritualities, experimental religions, and enduring shamanism. Is there such a thing as a usable and merged Russian mysticism – or at least some constant egregore? There is one, and it’s found while studying concepts/movements: Silver Age, Soviet Secret Societies, Slavic and Siberian religiosity, Greek Orthodox esotericism, and more. This investigation takes us to today’s New Age/Pagan that has made Russia a hotbed of Chaos Magic, Astrology, Sophia worship, and ceremonial magic.
