    the Philosophy of Aristotle by Michael Aquino

    What if the philosopher who shaped Western thought for over 2,000 years also defended the enslavement of other human beings? In this episode, we explore the philosophy of Aristotle—the systematizer, the logician, the father of empiricism, and one of the most influential thinkers in history. But we also confront the darker aspects of his legacy: his defense of natural slavery, his rejection of the immortal soul, and his problematic politics. We begin with Aristotle's dramatic life—tutor to Alexander the Great, student of Plato for twenty years, founder of the Lyceum, and a man driven from Athens on charges of impiety. We trace his ideas from the Unmoved Mover to the Golden Mean, from the Politeia to natural slavery. Should we celebrate Aristotle or condemn him? 📜 Topics Covered: Aristotle's life: tutor to Alexander, founder of the Lyceum, exile and deathAristotle vs. Plato: The great rivalry and who was rightThe Unmoved Mover: An impersonal God or a philosophical principle?The mortal soul: Why Aristotle rejected individual immortalityForm and matter: Aristotle's redefinition of Plato's FormsNatural slavery: The most controversial aspect of Aristotle's philosophyThe Politeia: Aristotle's ideal constitutionThe Golden Mean: Wisdom or compromise?Crowley's critique: Why the Golden Mean leads to "flabbiness"The loss and rediscovery of Aristotle's worksHow Aristotle's philosophy became Catholic dogmaAristotle and the Temple of Set: Ancestor or problem?🎧 ABOUT THE RUBY TABLET The Ruby Tablet Podcast is a philosophical and spiritual journey through the essays of the Temple of Set, exploring the great traditions of human thought—from ancient Egypt to the present day. Each episode is a deep dive into the ideas that help shape the Self and fan the Black Flame. 🔮 In Our Next Episode: We turn to the Hellenistic Era—the time of Skepticism, Epicureanism, and Stoicism. How did Greek philosophy change after Aristotle? How did the mystery cults and the Orientalization of the European soul shape Western thought? The story continues. 🔗 Sources & Reading List: Essay #5: The Philosophy of Aristotle (Aquino VI°, V2 - 102 - 5) Reading List: #16 📚 Recommended Reading: Aristotle, The Nicomachean Ethics (trans. W.D.

    the Philosophy of Plato by Michael Aquino

    In this episode, we journey from the shadows of the cave to the blinding light of the Forms. We explore how Plato—student of Socrates, founder of the Academy, and heir to the Egyptian mysteries—created a philosophical system that would define the soul, the state, and the divine for millennia. We begin with fourth-century Athens: a world of rationalism, humanism, and idealized perfection. We trace Plato's influences—from the Egyptian neteru to the Pythagorean obsession with number—and we ask: Was Plato the greatest synthesizer of ancient wisdom, or did he fundamentally misunderstand the traditions he inherited? From the Theory of Forms to the Allegory of the Cave, from the tripartite soul to the philosopher-king, from the Republic to the Laws—we trace the profound legacy of Platonic thought and ask: Are we living in Plato's cave, or have we escaped? 🎧 ABOUT THE RUBY TABLET The Ruby Tablet Podcast is a philosophical and spiritual journey through the essays of the Temple of Set, exploring the great traditions of human thought—from ancient Egypt to the present day. Each episode is a deep dive into the ideas that help shape the Self and fan the Black Flame. 🔮 In Our Next Episode: We turn to Aristotle—Plato's star pupil who rejected the Forms and built his own empire of logic, ethics, and science. How did the "mind of the Academy" become the father of empiricism? And why did his philosophy become the foundation of medieval theology? 🔗 Sources & Reading List: Essay #4: The Philosophy of Plato (Aquino VI°, V2 - 102 - 4) Reading List: #5, #12, #16 📚 Recommended Reading: Plato, The Republic (trans.

    Pre-Socratic (Ancient Greek) Philosophy by Michael Aquino

    In this deep dive, we explore the revolutionary thinkers who changed everything—the Pre-Socratic philosophers. Before Socrates, before Plato, before Aristotle, there was a group of radical minds who dared to ask the forbidden questions: What is reality made of? Is there a soul? Is the universe alive or dead? Is truth absolute or just opinion? We trace the journey from the mythical world of Egypt and Mesopotamia to the birth of reason, logic, and science in ancient Greece. From Thales' water to Pythagoras' numbers, from Heraclitus' river to Parmenides' timeless Being—this is the story of how humanity learned to think. 🏛️ PHILOSOPHERS COVERED Thales of Miletus - The first philosopher Anaximander - The infinite (apeiron) Anaximenes - Air as the fundamental substance Leucippus & Democritus - The atomists Protagoras - "Man is the measure of all things" Pythagoras - Number as the essence of reality Heraclitus - The river of change Parmenides - The eternal, unchanging Being Zeno - The paradoxes of motion Empedocles - Love and Strife Anaxagoras - Mind (nous) as the ordering principle 🧠 KEY QUESTIONS EXPLORED -Did the Greeks truly invent philosophy, or were they building on Egyptian foundations? -Is justice a human invention or a universal law? -Can you be both a materialist and a mystic? -Is the universe a machine or a living being? -Was Pythagoras a mathematician, a mystic, or both? -Does change or permanence define reality? -Were the Sophists heroes or villains? -Is the idea of the immortal soul obsolete in a scientific age? 🔮 THE BIG QUESTIONS WE LEAVE YOU WITH What does it mean to live as if the soul is real? In a universe of atoms and void, can there still be meaning? Are we living in a mathematical reality? What would it take to be a philosopher today? 🎧 ABOUT THE RUBY TABLET The Ruby Tablet Podcast is a philosophical and spiritual journey through the essays of the Temple of Set, exploring the great traditions of human thought—from ancient Egypt to the present day.

    Mesopotamian Philosophy by Michael Aquino

    Ancient Egyptian Philosophy by Michael Aquino

    What if everything you thought you knew about ancient Egyptian spirituality was wrong? 🇪🇬 In this episode of our podcast, we dive deep into the essay "Ancient Egyptian Philosophy" written by Dr Michael Aquino from the Temple of Set – it is the foundational text behind the Ruby Tablet of Set. This isn't your typical history lesson. We're exploring a radical interpretation of Kemet that challenges Western philosophy, redefines the nature of reality, and asks: did the Egyptians achieve a perfect society 5,000 years ago? Join us as we unpack 10 thought-provoking topics, from the "geometric" mind of the Pharaohs to the terrifying (and liberating) concept of Maat. We're asking the big questions: Was Egyptian art just art, or a portal to another dimension? Was their society a harmonious utopia or a sophisticated theocracy? And most importantly, what can this ancient wisdom teach us about our modern world of chaos and division? 🔍 In This Episode, We Discuss: -The "Geometric" vs. "Algebraic" mind – why the Egyptians thought in patterns, not causes. -The modern relevance – what does the "Ruby Tablet" tell us about our future? -This is a deep dive into the metaphysics, politics, and mystery of the world's first great civilization. Whether you're a student of philosophy, a history buff, or a seeker of hidden wisdom, this episode is for you. 💬 Let us know in the comments: Do you agree with the author's assessment of Egypt as a harmonious society? Or is this a romanticized view of the past? 📚 Resources & Reading List: Ancient Egyptian Philosophy by Michael A.
