(video clip) Rosicrucian Science of Initiation - Lucifer, Ahramin and The Middle Path
This segment of the video focuses on the concept of Satan as being divided into Luciferic and Ahrimanic influences and how these influences relate to the Middle Path.
As per the works of Rudolf Steiner, in this video segment Rob Gilbert divides Satanic influences into two beings, Lucifer and Ahriman, and shows us how neither is bad per se. Each provides gifts to human beings that further our evolution. It is us who must learn to balance these gifts in our individual lives. It is only when unbalanced that these influences become negative to the individual.

(website) Work of the Chariot
The Trust was rooted in the oral teachings of an accomplished mystic who is a genuine master of the Tree of Life, a real "Man of the Ayn." The emphasis of his teaching was to engage in practices that would lead each individual to their own experiential understanding, their own ascent of the Tree. After he was recruited by an ancient order of Mystical Qabalists, called "Ma'aseh Merkabah" (Work of the Chariot), to engage in work specifically intended to "water the mystical roots of the children of Abraham," he formed the religious trust through which to publish his original translations of primary qabalistic texts. He never put his name on any of the translations he published, nor took credit for his work.

(video clip) Dr. Quantum - Double Slit Experiment
Dr. Quantum shows how the act of observation causes a wave of possibilities to collapse into a particle of matter. The question then becomes, who chooses, from moment to moment, which reality manifests out of the wave of possibilities.

(video clip) Hiah Park - Shaman Healer
A man walks in off the street into a gathering of shamans and finds himself spontaneously being drawn into a healing ceremony with Hiah Park which quickly renders him unconscious for a period of time. While his soul hangs precariously between the worlds, the situation grows very serious at one point and some of the shamans begin to fear that he may die. Eventually Hiah manages to bring him back with the assistance of one of the elders. When he awakens he finds that he has been rid of addictions which had been troubling his life. Some of the other healers present, especially the men, are shocked by the sexual expression involved in her healing. She has an interesting discussion about this with the other members of the group after the healing session is over.
