“Wisdom fears no thing, but still bows humbly to its own source, with its deeper understanding, loves all things, for it has seen the beauty, the tenderness, and the sweetness which underlie Life's mystery” –Manly P. Hall

Welcome to the September issue of The New Journal of the Philosophical Research Society.


The sacred magic of the earth and heaven have inspired the peoples of the world to make changes in their lives since the earliest days of human evolution when they sought the aid of primordial gods for their survival. Invocations and supplications helped mankind to believe their connection to the divine was real and personal, and that they were not alone in the darkness of the night. 

New science and magic are close neighbors, and obscurant thought and sharp wisdom interplay on the boundaries of both. At the Philosophical Research Society we hope to discern between obfuscation and integrity, and to present content to satisfy explorers. Join our journey into knowledge and support the Society in its mission as a place for wisdom to flourish. 

Please share your treasure with us–if the Philosophical Research Society has helped you to make your life more fulfilling, help us to help others by making a donation here.
