  1. Number 1: MANLY P. HALL | The Greatest Philosopher of the 20th Century (No Soundtrack)

    This documentary examines the life and teachings of Manly P. Hall, the most significant philosopher and spiritual teacher of the 20th century.Hall was a scholar of ancient civilizations and a lecturer who emerged almost fully-formed as a Plato-like sage in Los Angeles in the early 1920s. It still defies explanation how he published perhaps the greatest work of philosophical scholarship in modern history, The Secret Teachings of All Ages (1928), at the ripe young age of 27. There was something more to the man than him being merely a prodigy or genius - an Inner Light shone brightly out through him, and it was this Inner Light that gave Manly Hall his unmistakable greatness. In this documentary by philosopher Alexander Sachon, author of “Manly P. Hall: The Maestro of Esoteric Philosophy” (2023), the viewer tracks Hall’s rise as a teacher, while also examining the central ideas at the heart of the system of philosophy he taught with unvarying precision over his lengthy 70-year career. The video also explores Hall’s deep connection to the institution of the Mystery Schools, as well as to the Scottish Rite branch of Freemasonry. Most importantly, it features over 30-minutes of rare archival footage of Hall lecturing during the last year or so of his life. In this footage, Hall lays out his conclusions about what the essential meaning of Life is and what mankind’s place in the Universe ultimately amounts to. Whether you’re new to esoteric philosophy or a longtime student of Manly Hall’s work, this deep dive into the life of the Maestro is essential viewing.

  2. Number 2: THE COMING WORLD NATION | A Philosopher's Vision for the Future of Global Government (No Soundtrack)

    In this documentary, philosopher Alexander Sachon unpacks the thesis of his 2025 book, THE COMING WORLD NATION, which argues that cosmic factors are driving mankind toward a major transformation point - one that is set to transform world civilization in the direction of global government, technocracy, and breakthrough technology. Sachon argues that in order to meet the immense challenge that the present moment confronts us with, we must revitalize the lost wisdom traditions of the past and elevate philosophy to its rightful place as the guiding light of human society. 0:00 Introduction to Alex's book The Coming World Nation1:52 Atlantis and the Origin of Empire4:02 The Rise of American Empire8:00 The Secret History of WWII11:42 The Birth of the Technocratic Superstate16:02 The Politics of Etheric Energy19:46 The Concealed Priesthood23:01 The Death and Rebirth of Civilization28:23 ConclusionAlexander Sachon’s website: https://alexsachon.com/Buy TCWN on Amazon: https://a.co/d/01utZXRvSalomon’s House website: https://salomonshouse.orgThank you to Cal Callahan, Aubrey Marcus, and Luke Storey for the source footage.

  3. Number 3: MANLY P. HALL | The 20th Century's Greatest Philosopher (Documentary)

    This documentary examines the life and teachings of Manly P. Hall, the most significant philosophical teacher of the 20th century and the most underrated historical figure of modern times. Hall was a philosophic scholar and lecturer who emerged almost fully-formed as a Plato-like sage in Los Angeles in the early 1920s. Still, it defies explanation how published perhaps the greatest work of philosophical scholarship in modern history, The Secret Teachings of All Ages (1928), at the ripe young age of 27. There was something more to the man than him being merely a prodigy or genius - an Inner Light shone brightly out through him, and it was this Inner Light that gave Manly Hall his unmistakable greatness.

  5. Number 5: MANLY P. HALL - "Magnetic Fields of the Human Body" | Lecture Analysis

    In today's episode I do an in-depth breakdown of a Manly P. Hall lecture I've had on my radar for a long time. It's called "Magnetic Fields of the Human Body" and it offers a wide-ranging introduction to the role that the electromagnetic field surrounding the human body - often called the "aura" - plays in human life. It offers the key not only to understanding human health, but also human psychology, as well as the mysteries of astrology and alchemy. The video version of this episode will be featured on my substack (thewisdomtradition.substack.com). Thanks for tuning in! And don't forget to check out my book on Manly P. Hall (available on Amazon). - Alex Send us a text
