In this lecture, Prof. John Wilkins explores Galen's treatises on Foods and Juices, and devles into his theory of the ‘similarity’ or ‘appropriatenes...

Interesting esoteric views of Roger Bacon. It is important to understand that all his "Christian" concepts were most likely used in the Gnostic, or perhaps Rosicrucian, sense, not in the literal Christian sense. This includes the symbols "God", "soul", "body", "death", "immortality", "eternity", "fire", "air", "water", "earth" etcetera. These terms, and many others, would be used in their esoteric sense and not in their exoteric sense by Bacon, in order to both conceal Knowledge from the foolish and the unworthy, and to simultaneously reveal this Knowledge to those who are both wise and humble. To Know the Mysteries of Heaven are given not to the People but only to the Disciples, as the Nazarene Master Jeshu once said.
Too quiet.
