A Twelve-Part Online Course with Mitch Horowitz
In twelve lectures, this video course introduces, surveys, and expands on the core subjects of Manly P. Hall’s landmark compendium of esoteric and symbolic philosophy, The Secret Teachings of All Ages. In each 45-60 minute course, historian and author Mitch Horowitz explores Hall’s historical analysis and philosophical ideas, and considers recent developments in the fields Hall studied and the insights he presaged. For both first-time students and longtime readers, the course provides new inroads into the Great Book.

The Art of Living Well: Ancient Wisdom for Our Times

About the Course:
Life is simple, but living is hard. In literature, philosophy, religion, the arts, and in life itself—the art of living is not hidden. Plenty of people who have lived have found a way—or parts of a way, or moments of meaning here and there—that we can use. There is no great mystery in finding out what to do; the mystery—and the difficulty—is in doing it. This series is about helping you on that path. If you don’t know how to live, the series will remind you how people around the world and throughout history have found their own ways to the art of living. If you don’t have the will to follow that path, this series is here to encourage you, to be your helper, maybe even to inspire you to live well. Join us for six lecture/discussions on The Art of Living.
