Rating:  Summary: The Teachings of a Master Review: There are 5 audio cassettes that will take you roughly 5 hours to listen to. But once you listen to Manly Hall's lectures on Paracelsus you will be moved, inspired and amazed. Paracelsus, whose super long name I will not write here, is considered the father of alchemy. Using his experience and insight of both the medical and chemistry fields of study to understand the nature of the natural universe. This is the universe which exists without filters the mind uses to discriminate between left and right, good and bad, right and wrong. That which is left is between (the word Parzival literally means "between the mountains). This essentially was known at the time as 'ether'. Today we refer to it as astral, or neurotransmitter. These lectures by Manly Hall are well thought out, clearly stated and scholarly in nature. Hall gives a comprehensive look at the world of Paracelsian thought as well as the life of Paracelsus. The only drawback to this collection is the sound quality. While sometimes, as the reviewer for the 'Alchemy' collection noted, you have to "squint your ears" in order to hear some of his words. Some parts were clear with little trouble understanding what Hall says, other times its muffled and gets lost. I know I dont have the best quality tape deck in my car (and listening in the car will limit my hearing as well), but it is a noticable change in quality from one tape to the next. Hall gives you a truck load of information and to absorb it all will not happen in one listening. Many are reqiured if one is out to get a full grasp of this Masters work. Highly reccomended.
