    The Hermetic Principles - Ancient Wisdom for a Better Life - The Alchemist | After Skool

    The Hermetic Principles - Ancient Wisdom for a Better Life - The Alchemist The seven principles are the foundation of Hermeticism, a branch of spiritual philosophy dating back over 5000 years ago. They were outlined by famed author Hermes Trismegistus, who is believed to have written the Emerald Tablet and the Corpus Hermeticum (two highly influential, ancient teachings).His work would go on to influence both ancient Greek and Egyptian cultures, with both adopting him as a god of wisdom. (In Greece he was called Hermes; in Egypt, Thoth.) He was known in his time as a great master of the universe and is said to have lived for thousands of years.Over time, the seven hermetic principles were passed down by word-of-mouth from teacher to student, and eventually, one day in the early 20th century, the teachings were compiled into a book called The Kybalion, written by "The Three Initiates." Today, they remain an occult source of wisdom, separate from any real religion but powerful nonetheless.And while the seven principles are just one way of understanding the universe, they aren't so constricting that they cannot be studied alongside other spiritual philosophies.Huge thank you to Sarah Elkhaldy (The Alchemist) for this wonderful collaboration.

    Cocaine vs Sugar | After Skool

    Cocaine vs Sugar What's more addictive: Cocaine or Sugar? In the video we collaborate with Health Chronicle to bring you the answer. Check out their fun health animations https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSPr6DPtJISy8DL9eGAIiyAIn 2007, Researchers at the University of Bordeaux conducted a study where They equipped rat cages with two levers: one lever gave the rats an intravenous hit of cocaine; the other gave them 20 seconds to drink sugar water. Before beginning the tests, rats were allowed to sample each lever twice to see how they liked it. Once the test began, 94% of rats chose the sugar-sweetened water. Interestingly, rats still preferred the sweetened water even when researchers gradually increased the cocaine dose.When comparing the brains of food addicts to cocaine addicts side by side, the similarities are undeniable. FMRI scans of the brains activity reveal A massive spike in dopamine upon initial craving - high levels of anticipation, but low levels of satisfaction on consumption. Basically, Food addicts want sugar more than they actually enjoy eating it.If you enjoy our animations and want to see more, please support us on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/AfterSkool Every little bit helps!For more interesting videos, please subscribe To get the After Skool Graphic Novel check out our new website https://www.afterskool.net/ Follow the podcast for new episodes.

    Miyamoto Musashi - How to Master Your Emotions | After Skool

    Miyamoto Musashi - How to Master Your Emotions Miyamoto Musashi 宮本武蔵 (1584 - 13 June 1645) was a Japanese swordsman, strategist, artist, and writer who became renowned through stories of his unique double-bladed swordsmanship and undefeated record in his 62 duels. Miyamoto is considered a kensei (sword saint) of Japan. He was the founder of the Niten Ichi-ryū (or Nito Ichi-ryū) style of swordsmanship, and in his final years authored A Book of Five Rings (五輪の書, Go Rin No Sho) and Dokkōdō (獨行道, The Path of Aloneness).This video explores how to master your emotions through the wisdom of ancient Japanese Samurai Philosophy. Miyamoto Musashi led a life of extreme discipline, focus and mental fortitude. Although we live in a very different world than the one Musashi did, his teachings are more relevant than ever.This script was written by After Skool and Trenton Bouie.

    Marcus Aurelius - The Power of INDIFFERENCE | After Skool

    Marcus Aurelius - The Power of INDIFFERENCEEmpower your critical thinking and get the full picture on every story. Subscribe through my link https://ground.news/afterskool to get 50% off unlimited access this month with their Vantage Plan. Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (26 April 121 - 17 March 180) was Roman emperor from 161 to 180 and a Stoic philosopher. He was a member of the Nerva-Antonine dynasty, the last of the rulers later known as the Five Good Emperors and the last emperor of the Pax Romana, an age of relative peace, calm, and stability for the Roman Empire lasting from 27 BC to 180 AD. He served as Roman consul in 140, 145, and 161. This information in this presentation is based on Marcus Aurelius' Meditations (Koinē Greek: Τὰ εἰς ἑαυτόν, romanized: Ta eis heauton, lit. ''Things Unto Himself''), a series of personal writings, private notes to himself and ideas on Stoic philosophy. Marcus Aurelius wrote the 12 books of the Meditations in Koine Greek as a source for his own guidance and self-improvement. It is possible that large portions of the work were written at Sirmium, where he spent much time planning military campaigns from 170-180 C.E. Some of it was written while he was positioned at Aquincum on campaign in Pannonia, because internal notes reveal that the first book was written when he was campaigning against the Quadi on the river Granova (modern-day Hron in Slovakia) and the second book was written at Carnuntum. It is unlikely that Marcus Aurelius ever intended the writings to be published. The work has no official title, so "Meditations" is one of several titles commonly assigned to the collection. These writings take the form of quotations varying in length from one sentence to long paragraphs.Follow the podcast for new episodes.We cannot change the world.
