Hello, friends. This is Against Everyone with Connor Habib. This is the fourth episode and a series of episodes on occult and esoteric Christianity,

an evolving tradition that offers vitalizing insights into how to move forward in our world.

Across these episodes, I'll be talking about various streams and fruits of occult and esoteric

Christianity as well as some of its key figures. Rather than presenting the typically dogmatic,

dominating, and totalizing Christianity, which is always in danger of being seized by people,

especially conservatives with power, this series will present a different and truer form, open, wounded,

individualated, and powerless, a tradition that relates to other spiritual paths without

seeking to control or diminish them. The first in this series featured Reverend Jonah Evans of the Christian community,

and the second of the series also featured Reverend Patrick Kennedy of the Christian community,

both people in the religious renewal movement inspired by the works of Rudolf Schneider.

And then the previous episode to this one

featured David Lorimer, the spiritual researcher and writer, talking about Peter Dunev.

While I've gone to a handful of Christian community services and am relatively new to Peter

Dunaff's work, this episode features a stream of

esoteric Christianity and figure I am more familiar with. The stream of esoteric Christianity

expressed by the Cypriot teacher and healer, Doskalos. I have studied with a group that carries out Doskalos' work,

the researchers of truth, and with two of the central figures in this group, who are my guest

today, Daniel Joseph and Akitoshimitsu. Daniel was last on the show, way back on, against everyone with Connor and Beebe number 67.

And he's the author of three books, including swimming with the whale, the miracles, wonders, and

healings of Doskalos, and the researchers of truth.

Aki teaches meditation and guides people in the U.S. and also in Japan through Daskalos' teachings.

They both appear on the Researchers
