When it comes to exploring the esoteric realms of spirit (and science), navigating the dense material can be somewhat of a daunting task. Dutiful study, contemplation, and meditation are all par for the course for the practicing occultist. 

However, sometimes the density can dissolve if we find the right type of media, which sparks the imagination, and allows the content at hand to become digestible, relatable, and even awe-inspiring. 

The curated selection of YouTube videos below, offer insightful, and quite unique, cinematic journeys through esoteric knowledge, occulted wisdom, and the secret teachings of all ages.
