About this listen

No other book in history has done more to clarify the esoteric, mystical, and occult traditions of the world than Manly P. Hall's The Secret Teachings of All Ages.

Now, historian Mitch Horowitz provides the first companion work to Hall's opus. The Seeker's Guide to The Secret Teachings of All Ages helps 21st-century audiences enter and experience (or reexperience) Hall's hallowed pages and also clarifies and expands on some of the book's key themes and topics.

Mitch explores developments and historical discoveries since Hall published his "Great Book" nearly a century ago and adds fresh dimensions to subjects, including:

  • The antiquity and legacy of ancient Egypt
  • The mystical origins of the world's major faiths
  • Strange beasts and anomalies in history and today
  • The origins and esotericism of Tarot

Very well narrated.
This book kept me finding extra times in my day to listen.
So well done that I have just purchased another of his books and placed several others in my wish list.

Enlightening

But this turned out to be an absolute page turner. Each lesson truly is enough to whet the appetite and leave you wanting more. Each topic is treated with respect both for the subject and the listener. I've subsequently ordered a paper copy of the Secret Teachings. Great hearting the author narrate as well, I highly recommend this!

Didn't know what to expect ..

Mitch Horowitz clearly explains many complex topics such as astrology and hermeticism. If you are a scholar this is not the book for you, but as an introduction to occult history, I highly recommend this book, which is both interesting and informative.

Lesson V on Hermetic literature has been so helpful to my understanding of how Egypt, the Enlightenment, and modern scholarship have all contributed to this through line that is so important to understand occultism.

This was not quite what I was expecting from when I clicked buy. Normally that would have left me disappointed, this did not leave that feeling. from the very beginning Mitch delivered his usual gold. Mitch's reverence for his mentors always shines through as he not only references but expands here in MPH's detailed text.

highly recommended.

not at all what I was expecting, but glorious!

I found the topic well covered and Mitch's narration well spoken and clear. I learned a lot and recommend it to anyone who finds the printed version of Manly P Hall's book daunting and difficult to approach.

An excellent introduction to the subject
