in a Time of Crisis:

The Spiritual Legacy

of Manly P. Hall

10:30 p.m. Eastern

Tickets here.

Join us for the premiere of this recently recorded lecture from Dr. Stephan Hoeller on “meeting the current health crisis and cultural turmoil with the aid of Manly P. Hall’s spiritual legacy.” Hoeller was Mr. Hall’s principal lecturing associate at PRS for more than 20 years. He is a noted scholar and lecturer on Gnosticism and the message of C.G. Jung. He is the author of five books and is president of Besant Lodge of the Theosophical Society on Beachwood Drive in Hollywood.

The mission of the Philosophical Research Society is the same as it was at its founding in 1934: to provide resources for seekers to find meaning and wisdom. To do this we seek out wisdom wherever it can be found, from any area of the world, any era in history, any way of knowing that has shown itself to be worthy by praxis. As a non-profit, on-campus, and on-line society dedicated to the pursuit of wisdom, our vision is of a community of seekers who are continually discovering, applying, cultivating, and rediscovering practical and profound wisdom in the 21st century. Guiding us as we guide seekers are the following values that we apply daily:

• Inclusiveness: PRS looks to include wisdom from its every source and to make it accessible to all who value it.
• Objectivity: PRS transcends any particular tradition, philosophy or personality.
• Freedom: PRS supports free and open inquiry into ways of knowing and being that are at the same time open to critique and dialogue.
• Community: PRS fosters a learning community characterized by stimulating and good-faith interaction.
