About this listen
Taylor frames the Orphic hymns as fragments of a primordial theology in which the gods are not personalities but cosmic powers, each hymn functioning as a precise invocation of a universal principle. His translation exposes an initiatory system built on purification, cosmic sympathy, and ascent through successive layers of divine order. The work presents the hymns as operative formulas of the Eleusinian Mysteries rather than poetry—concise ritual utterances designed to attune the soul to the intelligible world, reveal the structure of the cosmos, and draw the intellect away from material delusion.
Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz
