The latest episode is another lovely discussion with author, poet, and scholar Peter Mark Adams. His latest work, "Hagia Sophia / Sanctum of Kronos: Spiritual Dissent in an Age of Tyranny," is a fascinating exploration of the pagan Mystery cults and their diverse survivals in later philosophical traditions, as well as a discussion of the ways in which the construction of the Hagia Sophia cathedral in Constantinople (present-day Istanbul) encapsulates the metaphysics of spiritual union taught within the Eleusinian tradition – all in the face of intense persecution and oppression. Diving into the nature of sacred art, symbolism, and religious 'survivals,' I really enjoyed the conversation and I hope you do as well!
