Spoken Word Essay Collection Vol I - Student of Life

https://www.nilesheckman.com/spokenwordessays

I've thrown the first 25 spoken word essays from the podcast together and have put them into a first collection: volume 01. Time capsuled for the long haul. The goal is to make numerous hundreds of spoken word essays before I CROKE so this should be the first of numerous essay volumes. Each will be in a chuck of 25 mp3 files. Individualized with just the raw voice. All together they total 5 hours and 45 minutes of audio run time.

I'm selling this for $12 but am happy to give it away for free to $10/month patrons. As always, thanks very much for your support and please do keep this download link to yourself.

Trivium Education

http://www.triviumeducation.com/  

A liberal arts education gives the (wo)man the tools they need to teach themselves. Hence, it gives them the tools for a real education.  

General Grammar, Aristotelian Logic, and Classical Rhetoric comprise the first three rules-based subjects of the 7 Liberal Arts and Sciences. As these disciplines are learned and practiced together, they form the overarching, symbiotic system for establishing clarity and consistency of personal thought called the Trivium.

Much more of this to be discussed in the future.

A Future Feature Length Documentary Project

We have a future feature length documentary stewing in the cauldron. It's an adaptation of Manly P Hall's book Occult Anatomy of Man, which is highly recommended to check out. Here's an early poster idea without credit block adapted from Augustus Knapp - One of Hall's artistic collaborators. That's not a Star of David but an upside down and ride side up triangle. Indicating the spiritual moving down to the material and vice versa, or six rayed star. 

This book give fantastic insights into man's relationship with the cosmos and the as within so without correlations to that. As their is so much we have forgotten about the temple of (wo)man in human form.

This isn't the only feature brewing but wanted to throw this out as one which I think I can get done sometime in the next 5 years. Ha! As making feature length film projects is a massive time commitment. And the way I want to do this will be quite achievable with the current resources. 

Anyway, more always coming down the pipe. Excerpts for Shamans of the Global Village episode 2 posting here in the near distant future for early preview as well. As always, thanks so much for your support and for caring about the works. Which on this end sometimes feels like throwing a kleenex into the Grand Canyon. 

Essay: A Question of Velocity (Exclusive for Patrons)

Direct Download Backup: http://www.mediafire.com/file/g5egb55yz9lx0k2/AnInfinitePath_essay_AQuestionOfVelocity.mp3

First of all, a slight disclaimer on this one. Talk of a "dimensional shift" can be very WOO WOO sounding, not to mention dissociative and "anti enrealment". Especially in regards to the ecological crisis. From this perspective, it's more to be considered esoterically and even more importantly felt in terms of evolution over deep time.

Also, these spoken word essays came about out of a series of spoken word on camera talking head essays I did for a while in 2017. All though its nice to be seen, they were later turned into and continued as audio only for ease of editing purposes and to not be subservient to a single video platform. Much like an old Alan Watt's lecture from the 70's, mp3 files are easier to spread and store long term. These spoken word essays have been a great outlet of expression and are an example of being forced to become a better writer by putting words down which one is passionate about. The spoken component has always been the intended final destination because the voice is the best mode of communication. As more folks are willing to listen than to read these days. 

So regarding the origins of the writing a note on authorship... The majority of these essays are written by yours truly. At lease 3 out of 4. However, as a dyslexia brain and a slow writer, I have probably about 50 more of them in a somewhat yet to be completed phase. Yet, in an effort to make them a bit more regularly occurring, I will occasionally speak the words of others or highly edit the words of others. Several past essays derived from a friend named Maxwell Akin for example. An amazing young homeschool Jedi who I've helped out a bit here and there and who's Medium posts sound like a younger and wiser version of myself. This specific essay is a 5 to 10 year old essay from my colleague Neil Kramer which he no longer shares but is too good to pass up in this format. Thus, if something is truly exceptional and meaningful with resonance, I will also share it through my voice with co-credit always being given. Sharing here or perhaps in potential future essay collections more privately.

Oldie But Goodie - Podcast 59: Andrea Hartmann, Amanda Hodge, & Elfreda Pretorius

A wine & Skype story time telling of the life-changing events which happened to Niles around the creation of the pilot episode of the show Shamans of the Global Village. This one is a good companion to episode 88 with Mark Nara as it contains a more detailed discussion referenced in that discussion regarding galactivation.

"The Door of Perception is an ever-growing compilation of things that speak to me on a deep level. Passing on that feeling of resonance is a way of caring. I want to take you with me on a path towards the light of consciousness."

Trace Mineral Drops

Am starting an essay on the dynamics of drinking the best water possible. Until that time take a gander at trace mineral drops. https://traceminerals.com/concentrace-trace-mineral-drops/

If we live more rural and have a pure well or mountain spring that's perfect, but for the vast majority, we're probably dealing with a local municipalities water, which can be less than perfect. Filtering or structuring is key but here's a simple product I've found really beneficial in addition to filtering which can be easily dropped into any drinking water before consumption. As it’s impossible to overestimate the importance of minerals and trace minerals for the human body.

Podcast 88: Mark Nara - The Energetics and Ancient Art Form of Marking Skin (Extended for Patrons)

Mark Nara on the intention, spiritual practice, and ancient art form of marking skin, function over fashion, traditional artistic expression through tattooing in various cultures, life level-ups via connection to the sacred, and in the nearly hour long extension for patrons, deeper esoteric and magical aspects of tattooing, coded art, and Niles' idea for a tattoo motivated from his galactivation.

Raw Archives of Terence McKenna Talks

Timeless thoughts are more relevant than ever:

"I mean, it's okay to live like there's no tomorrow if you're at some primitive stage of culture with endless frontiers of exploitable resources in all directions. That's not where we're at. We have burned through all that, and yet still we party on. And the signs are on the wall. We have invented a sin that no other culture ever even conceived of: it's the sin of looting the future. No other culture was ever so narcissistic and self-indulgent that it cared nothing for the future of its children. Children have always been the value focus for a civilization. But when you pile up four trillion dollars in debt, when you cut down the rainforests and blow off the atmosphere, it means you are in the grip of such an orgy of narcissistic excess that the best thing for it would be for somebody to just walk over and put a bullet through your head as a favor to everybody else. We don't need that kind of a fate. We need to be as noble as the people who preceded us, and a hell of a lot smarter, because nobility by itself is not sufficient. We're going to have to play a very cagey game now. And it's okay with me; I anticipate it. I mean, I think primates love a hell of a good fight, and we've got one on our hands. I mean, we have unleashed processes that, if not skilfully controlled, are extraordinarily terminal - even in the short term."

- Terence McKenna

Ralph Metzner's Last Interview

Here's an interview Rak Razam and I did with Ralph Metzner. A German-born American psychologist, writer and researcher, who participated in psychedelic research at Harvard University in the early 1960s with Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert (Ram Dass)

In this, which to our knowledge is his last recorded interview, he discusses his book The Toad & the Jaguar and his groundbreaking work with the molecule of 5-MeO-DMT. This interview is releasing now under the context of WBAC (the World Bufo Alvarius Congress) but we might use it in a future documentary feature as well.

“Signs and symbols rule the world, not words nor laws.” -Confucius

From their about page:

This timeless quote perfectly sums up the aims of this website. To understand the world we live in, we must understand the symbols surrounding us. To understand those symbols, we must dig up their origin, which is often deeply hidden in occult mysteries. In short, this site aims to go beyond the face value of symbols found in pop culture to reveal their esoteric meaning.

I’ve spent the last two decades researching Theosophy, Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism, the Bavarian Illuminati and Western Occultism. These schools of thoughts have many things in common: they are based on Hermetic teachings, they attach EXTREME importance to symbolism and they recruit within their ranks the most prominent people in all fields of society: Politics, business, law, finance, etc. The natural result of this phenomenon is the display of occult symbolism in all aspects of society, especially music, movies, and buildings. My goal is to bring out the meaning of these symbols in a clear, concise and entertaining way.

Here's a link to all the occult/esoteric/alchemical images from our feature film Transmutation:

I've typically sent this out in thank you e-mails to those who support my work, but wanted to add it here as a post as well. Let me know anytime if you ever fancy to discuss some of the content directly one on one or even in a group dynamic over Skype.

The Hidden Podcast

The following is a podcast which I was a guest on in April of 2019. I'm posting this myself privately in August of 2019 because it has yet to be released on the host's podcast and I'm not quite sure why that is. 

However, I had a recording on my side of the conversation. I've changed the pitch of the other side of the call's voice not because he is in witness protection, but because who he is specifically is not so much of importance, yet I share it here, in good spirits, to highlight a few of the life lessons surrounding it. Also, because it's a good chat and thus makes for extra juicy bonus content for you!

I'm also making it not (easily) downloadable, so it doesn't have the opportunity to travel please. And would appreciate if you kept it for your ears only. If this conversation is ever made public on his podcast, which I would like to see happen, I may removed this, and/or later eat my words.

The Book of Lambspring

The Book of Lambspring is one of the best (known) alchemist manuscripts, because of it being simple and direct without to much arcane chemical language, although still symbolic. It's one of the few real-life cases of a centuries-old book on alchemy. Originally published in Latin by Frenchman Nicholas Barnaud under the title "De Lapide Philosophico Triga Chemicum" in Prague, 1599, it does not appear to be an original work, but rather an edited collection of manuscripts that had been passed around for at least twenty years previous. Later, Lucas Jennis published the work in full in Frankfurt, 1625. Though the Christian church burned most of the copies over the centuries, there are still a few copies of the original remaining intact. One of them is in the National Museum of Nurenberg, and another is in the University of Leiden.

It's very short and full of alchemical engravings, so owning a physical copy is worth it, but here it is in PDF via archive.org.
