This five-part course invites students to embark on a journey of philosophical mythmaking as they explore how to reclaim time from linear progress, ‘see through’ the complex conditions of the present, and trace the outlines of an ‘integral’ spirituality–a spirituality that uniquely meets the challenges of this strange time between worlds..
Read MoreIntegral Theory for Idiots is for all three types. Layman Pascal will put you all in a blender together -- framing the discussion as part of the general field of developmental metatheories, liminal culture & adaptation to the new bio-informational planetary situation. This carnivalesque educational and participatory journey will be part (lively) introduction, part (dancing) critique, and part (enthusiastic) appreciation.

Read MoreWe knew how to write correct sentences, but fiction doesn’t live or die by correctness. No matter what we did, we couldn’t figure it out. Then, years later, we discovered Robert Butler, who taught us how to write a story. It turned out that we didn’t know what sentences in fiction were for. Most writers never learn this explicitly, but once we saw it, we couldn’t unsee it.
Read MoreIn this seminar, we will explore the meaning of the Minor Arcana, as well as strategies to make them our best companions for continuous learning—a veritable journey into the depths of our psyche, practical sense, intelligence, creativity, and intrinsic wisdom.
Read MoreThe profound value of the Marseille Tarot lies in its objective and humble nature: an immaterial architecture that summarizes the concrete, psychological, and spiritual structure of the human being, a point of encounter between our existential struggles and the laws of the Cosmos.
Read MoreZufism – Toward the Origin and Source of Philosophy, Religion, and Spirituality is a course that lays the groundwork for Alexander Bard’s forthcoming book on Zufism.

Read MoreThis transformative five-part course is designed for those ready to construct a powerful memeplex: an Empire of the Mind. In a world where personal stagnation can be dangerous, we will learn to shed old skin, gather our strength, and rise against the forces of manipulation and control. More than a course, this symposium is rooted in a powerful vision of social self-organization, along with the doctrine and practices that can realize it.
Read MoreWhat is the occult? And how can a deeper understanding of its theory and practices help us to grow in power and wisdom? Individually we need to become more complex (and simpler), wealthier in every sense, and infused with a greater force of intention in all aspects of our lives. Collectively, we need to enhance the well-being of those we love and also spread new ideas, patterns, and moods into a planetary civilization that is wavering between implosion and transformation. Real growth requires more than just aspiration and meditation. We must contact, unfold and empower hidden parts of ourselves. We need to get better at “magic.”
