The theurgic Platonists in the school of Iamblichus (4th century CE) did not ascend out of their bodies to be united with the gods—as is the common belief—but allowed the gods to descend into their bodies. By comparing embodied deification in theurgy to Tantric traditions of embodied deification, Gregory Shaw allows us to understand the power and charisma of the last Platonic teachers. Hellenic Tantra reveals a living Platonism that has been hidden from us. Gregory Shaw is a recently retired Professor of Religious Studies at Stonehill College, Massachusetts. He is the author of Theurgy and the Soul: The Neoplatonism of Iamblichus and several articles on the later Neoplatonists.

We are an independent production and rely on the support of listeners like you. Make a one-time contribution to http://paypal.me/brianjamessoul Subscribe on YouTube: http://youtube.com/@howlinthewilderness Brian James: http://brianjames.ca IG: http://instagram.com/brianjames.soulwork On this episode I welcome Paul Bishop to speak about his new book on Wolfram von Eschenbach’s Parzifal and it’s importance to Western culture and why important thinkers such as Carl and Emma Jung, Joseph Campbell, Harold Bloom and Rudolf Steiner all felt it was such a central text of the Western canon. Wolfram’s Parzival epic depicts a three-fold quest: for the hero’s identity, for vröude (“joy”), and for the mysterious Grail. In the course of this quest, Parzival undergoes a transformation from Fool to the lord of the Grail, at the same time effecting a collective transformation. It’s no wonder this tale was so significant for Carl Jung, who felt that the healing of the world is intrinsically linked to, and begins with our own healing.  I’ve been wanting to cover Parzifal on the podcast for a long time, and am really happy that I waited to have this conversation with Paul, whose work on Jung and religion I’ve admired since I heard him on Jakob Lusensky’s podcast Psychology & The Cross. Paul Bishop was born in 1967 in Southend-on-Sea. He studied at Magdalen College, Oxford, and he is currently William Jacks Chair of Modern Languages at the University of Glasgow. His books examine the history of ideas and the histories of psychoanalysis and analytical psychology, with particular emphasis on Nietzsche, C.G. Jung, and Ludwig Klages.

Robert Hopcke has been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice in Berkeley, California since 1986, specializing in working with issues around sexuality, religion and spirituality. Known internationally for his ground-breaking work within Jungian psychology, he is the author of the first full-length work in English on homosexuality within the field of analytical psychology, Jung, Jungians and Homosexuality published in 1989. This was a really fun and enlightening conversation, and even after nearly two hours of diving deep on Jung and some of the key archetypal themes within homosexuality and gay eroticism, I feel like there was still a lot more to explore.
