Samkhya and Ethers

This series covers events from 06/02/1974 - 07/21/1974

This series of classes focuses on the Hindu Samkhya philosophy and the doctrine of ethers in Western esotericism. The classes explore fundamental Samkhya concepts including pramanas (means of knowledge), the evolution of consciousness through the five bhutas (earth, water, fire, air, ether), and the interplay between Purusha and Prakriti. A central theme is the four/seven ethers as formative principles that structure both cosmic and psychological experience. The classes integrate Samkhya with Western esoteric traditions, discussing etheric and astral bodies, planetary influences, the four kingdoms of nature, and how these principles manifest in human consciousness and biological processes.
