About this listen

Few realize that even at the present stage of civilization in this world, there are souls who, like the priests of the ancient temples, walk the earth and watch and guard the sacred fires that burn upon the altar of humanity. Purified ones they are, who have renounced the life of this sphere in order to guard and protect the Flame, that spiritual principle in man, now hidden beneath the ruins of his fallen temple.

As we think of the nations that are past, of Greece and Rome and the grandeur that was Egypt's, we sigh as we recall the story of their fall; and we watch the nations of today, not knowing which will be the next to draw its shroud around itself and join that great ghostly file of peoples that are dead.

But everywhere, even in the rise and fall of nations, we see through the haze of materiality, justice; everywhere we see reward, not of man but of the invincible One, the eternal Flame. A great hand reaches out from the unseen and regulates the affairs of man. It reaches out from that great spiritual Flame which nourishes all created things, the never dying fire that burns on the sacred altar of Cosmos - that great fire which is the spirit of God. If we turn again to the races now dead, we shall, if we look, find the cause of their destruction. The light had gone out. When the flame within the body is withdrawn, the body is dead. When the light was taken from the altar, the temple was no longer the dwelling place of a living God.

Degeneracy, lust, and passion, hates and fears, crept into the souls of Greece and Rome, and Black Magic overshadowed Egypt; the light upon the altar grew weaker and weaker. The priests lost the Word, the name of the Flame. Little by little the Flame flickered out, and as the last spark grew cold, a mighty nation died, buried beneath the dead ashes of its own spiritual fire. But the Flame did not die. Like spirit of which it is the essence, it cannot die, because it is life, and life cannot cease to be.

to be honest

it took 1-2 years of listening almost everyday to lectures from others like Alan Watts, Neville Godard, KRS One ect. before I could actually keep alert and maintain a relaxed focus through the length several hours instead of just catching one or a few bits I was ready to make use of, while I nodding out 20 30 in . Now I find myself entertained almost as much as with Allan Watts and having become accustomed to his voice it was a bit odd feeling, the familiarity of his writing but having also read several of his works, I hear it in his voice when I read Anything he wrote. so it was weird being in a different voice.

The Journey Within

I was expecting a much longer book, hah.

Easy listening and the interest in the subject can be heared in the speaker's voice. Thank you for this.

Listen to this over and over

I must say this is beautifully written and narrated. I find that if I listen to Manly’s work over throughout my life experiences; I understand what he’s conveying differently each time. Bravo

Illuminates many Ancient Mysteries

I had the good fortune of meeting Manly P. Hall-so glad his teachings are available in this audio format (as well as others)... Outside of a few mispronunciations of several occult and Hebrew terms, and the narrator’s slightly over-dramatic delivery, this audio version is a reasonably good transmission of Manly P’s depth of understanding and intent, as woven into the allegorical imagery of both Western and Eastern ancient mystery stories.The audio (and written edition which includes graphic images) are very useful tools for contemporary audiences and initiates of the flame.

Good enough.

The narration grated my nerves. While the narrator was clear, it sounds like he’s trying to put more bass in his voice, over annunciate, and add a vocal fry to the end of every sentence in an attempt to sound ominous or something. It’s pretty extra. Not terrible tho.
