Story
Freemasonry, though not a religion, is essentially religious. Most of its legends and allegories are of a sacred nature; much of it is woven into the structure of Christianity. We have learned to consider our own religion as the only inspired one, and this probably accounts for much of the misunderstanding in the world today concerning the place occupied by Freemasonry in the spiritual ethics of our race. A religion is a divinely inspired code of morals. A religious person is one inspired to nobler living by this code. He is identified by the code, which is his source of illumination.

Publisher's Summary
Scientists refer to the pineal gland as the atrophied third eye. Indeed, it, along with the pituitary, is the third eye chakra or energy center, but are more dormant than atrophied. According to Max Heindels, in the distant past, man was in touch with the inner worlds through an activated pineal and pituitary gland. Considered the most powerful and highest source of ethereal energy available to humans, the third eye has always been important in initiating psychic powers (e.g. clairvoyance and seeing auras). Manly traces the historical significance of the gland and its spiritual value.

explodes out all over when you open the box
I believe I listened to this at least 6x, mostly at 1.25 speed, but played the last at 1.0 - and there is still so much I didn’t understand or absorb. There is a surprising amount of medically technical and evolutionary info re the Pineal Gland which would have benefited from a good diagram. PDF anyone? I think it was the author bouncing between different spiritual pantheons on top of everything else that finally did me in.
Riddle has a pleasant voice but is hit-or-miss on pronunciations as simple as esoteric and protuberance. :::groan!::: He correctly pronounces one word in French then massacres Descartes. Yet Riddle seems to hold his own with the medical jargon. Go figure.
