      Great music choice. However, I have to say I would love to have the book. Cause I love your work, and I really would love to have the book. Cause I’m broke and would absolutely cherish having a book like this. Plus I live in a 180 year old apartment in the French Quarter l, New Orleans that looks like it did in 1850.

    Walking past my child's [19 yo] bedroom two nights ago, and what do they have playing on their PC monitor? Dr. Justin Sledge, laying down the esoteric law like a boss!
    Needless to say, I was very pleased by this. I had no idea they was even aware of the topic, let alone a fan of The Man himself, lol.
    Thanks again for all you do, Dr. Sledge!

    Would love to hold
    Lovely channel you got Doc, thank you for all the information you share with us.

    It surprises me there are often no newer editions of these works. Given how much drivel gets printed nowadays you'd think someone would carry the torch. Most of these don't have copyright anymore either. True treasures for study into how and why people thought things worked. Oh well. At least we have this channel. Grateful for that.

    I own a 1st Edition of “Raphael’s Ancient Manuscript of Talismanic Magic,” and simply owning the book and having it on my bookshelf makes me feel special in some sort of way. I love antiquarian books, AND I love studying the occult. I also have two copies of Arthur Edward Waite’s “Pictorial Key to the Tarot.” One copy has black and white pictures, the other copy (an earlier print) has colored pictures.

    That's so cool! I've got an antique book myself, containing germanic legends. It was printed when Germany still had an Emperor. It's fascinating how these fragile things can survive such a long time if they are cared for enough.

    Dear Dr. Justin Sledge,
    I can hardly begin to tell you how much your RUclips channel Esoterica has truly enriched my life. The amount of scholarly information you give to the community for free, on your own time is so selfless. And to be honest, the education you provide on these topics is something I figured I could only ever receive in a classroom I could never afford. Your lessons on things like alchemy, theology, rare books, magic, and philosophy are invaluable to me. Because of your channel I've developed such a love and admiration/appreciation for old books; and owning a 400 year old occult book would be truly a dream come true. Regardless of the generous giveaway you're conducting; I wanted you to know how grateful I am for your channel and all of the education and happiness its brought to my life. I've just purchased my second t-shirt from your store and I can't wait to wear it proudly!!

    Esotericism has just blown me away. After we graduate from highschool, having been taught what is deemed "essential" by our modern society, we each go our own ways, doing our own business having our blinders on. And then came my father's death to pancreatic cancer 2 years ago, to which ensued the disillusion, the nihilism, that we all are just surviving in the name of money, relationships & pride ... never questioning the story that we all share, as we pretend that it functions more than it does. How pityful, this deflation of meaning that I felt, and yet this is yet just another story that veils and approximate senselessly something that is hidden within, my sense of wonder when I look at the fishing boats on the horizon of the sea, the birds singing up on a tree, and the simplest things which hide a sense of things that goes unexplained, a reality that is hidden within, a sense of divinity and of the self hand in hand projected over all animate and inanimate things. That little fire which is lit in all of us, which is not just beyond, but is within, is esotericism. And the unreachable and yet tangible humble pursuit of that inner wisdom, is what makes life worth living.

    That book, older and wiser than all of us, it's part of the marvels of the unseen world. The occult it's what gives my life meaning. I've spent most of my free time just listening or reading online about different topics and applying them to my personal life. As if i was giving them life again. Old wisdom won't be forgotten while there are still observers to It. Holding a book like that is like holding the whole universe within your hands. A testament to the miracle of life and the joy of seeing past the veil from time to time.

    Hi i'm a Classical Studies major at the University of Salamanca, soaking in the history at one of the oldest universities in Spain and Europe. Your RUclips channel on esoteric stuff has been my go-to during this crazy academic ride.
    Now, about that Apuleius's book giveaway, I'm all in! Here's why it's a perfect match: diving into Classical Studies is my jam, especially with the esoteric twists that Apuleius brings to the table. Being at Salamanca has only intensified my love for the hidden gems in classical literature.
    Your channel has been my academic compass, guiding me through the twists and turns. Winning that book would be like adding an extra sprinkle of magic to my studies and a cool nod to how your content has shaped my journey.
    Thanks for considering me, and keep rocking those esoteric videos!

    I would like to submit why i would like to win. Im happy to provide proof, but last year, my neighbor burned down my house. There were 3 of us, and all of us made it out, but then my esa died a month later from cancer.
    I had collections of various things, but my favorite were old books. I even had some i had bound myself in the style of ancient texts.
    Only a handful of anything survived. I think the worst part was honestly that most of my books didn't fully burn. A few were just completely waterlogged and it felt like their bloated moldy corpses mocked me.
    I don't normally try to use my life story to get things, everyone has hardships, but we are rebuilding a small library in a new home and honestly, having a book like i always dreamed of owning (in a protective case of course) would genuinely just bring me so much joy.
    If you read this, thank you for reading regardless.

Yeah I am not right when it comes to books I guess lol. I just wanted to say hey that incredibly generous of you. Who ever gets it should be thrilled with the gesture.

    OH GOODNESS! I adore old books. I’m still gutted that I loaned my 1854 book of Grimm’s fairy tales to a friend to read to their child & never got it back. Years later.
    Then for them to be Esoteric books. My heart just swoons. (And mind is swaying with it.)
    There are such wonderful books there. I’m totally gobsmacked that you can get rid of any of them.
    I can’t afford any, though, no matter the cost, as my man is just made redundant at 67. So while I have always want to go to patreon, I haven’t.
    Anyway, I’ll also take the opportunity to thank you for spreading some joy to someone with your gift and thank you for the continued happiness you give me by watching your videos. :-)

    Not only is Dr Sledge one of the few professors of esoteric philosophy, he's one of the few professors of any strip with a fan club numbering in the thousands.
    It's well deserved. Because of the good doctor and his peers from the other high quality esoteric channels on you tube it's now possible to hear serious and rigorous discussions of topics in the field for free, for the first time in the modern world.
    That is literally how you change the world.
    I'm glad to have access to and to support this channel.

    • @ThePatterner
      @ThePatterner 3 месяца назад

      Unfortunately, I fear this may not be the last Dr Sledge hears from the scammers. I hope not, but unless the song is hosted on a well protected royalty free site (like epidemicsound) the scammer might still go after him. I've seen them go after folks for their own recordings on other channels (literally the person was playing 'live' on the video) as well as going after folks that hold the license to music that they purchased from the creator. Unfortunately, scammer gunna scam

    • @katem3553
      @katem3553 3 месяца назад

      @ThePatterner I'll admit this is something I was completely unaware of until Dr Sledge's post.
      Fingers crossed whoever is bothering him gives up.

    Growing up in a religious environment and working at a church where people weren’t even aware of texts like the gospel of Judas really makes this channel hit home! Love to have a place where old texts can be studied and appreciated no matter their bearing on religious dogma. Especially one that can teach those (me) who aren’t so academically inclined about these topics for free from someone with a sweet ass beard. Thanks again!
