Magick, The Occult, and Summoning Demons with [arhat] Daniel Ingram
 |
| Science says magic is real (Dr. Dean Radin) |
Ingram is best known for his controversial claim to arhatship (full enlightenment), one of the highest levels of enlightenment in Theravada Buddhism (just under nonteaching buddhahood and supreme teaching buddhahood).
Less well known is Ingram’s lifetime of practice in magic and the occult.
In this interview he reveals his magical biography and comments on various systems including
- Goetia,
- Enochian,
- Kabbalah,
- Thelema,
- Castaneda,
- Buddhist Magic,
- and more.
Ingram also critiques the modern mindfulness movement for its suppression of information about the magical aspects (iddhis, Sanskrit siddhis) of its own tradition and gives advice on ethics and the accumulation of psychic powers.
