Funny I just stumbled upon it 3 days ago!! There is no such thing as coincidence!! I haven't been watching/reading him as of late but forgot that I hadn't mentioned him here. Anyway, I'd vouch to say that his work is better than any of the usual current names in the "Thelemic" community (not naming names but we all know who...) He's someone tapping into something, not just making a scholarly analysis. His youtube commentaries of his blog show that he's quite a down-to-earth guy but also very frank about stuff, even with the immensely deep stuff he gets into. Kenneth Grant's work is very often a factor into his journey. |

I also just discovered it recently, I really like it but do get tired of listening when he gets all conspiracy minded.

I also just discovered it recently, I really like it but do get tired of listening when he gets all conspiracy minded. I kinda agree, but at least he is constantly like "ok, let's be skeptical about this and see where it leads" In some sense, it's an attempt (within his own experiences of synchronicitys leading his investigation) to uncover the extent of the Aeon Of Horus (and Ma'atian hints of the future, perhaps) and it's relation with the ancient world. This can go both well and badly. Well, in one of the recent blog-commentaries he did mention how the Hermetic application of Qabalah can be troublesome on one end (too many connections that don't make sense), but is also completely abandoned by many Thelemites and even Typhonians in general - which is strange, seeing that so many of the connections (like Love/Will being 93 for ex) come from Gematria and not intuition on the part of Crowley; which is taken for granted. My biggest criticisms about Frater Mayan though, are the exact same ones I have for Levi, Blavatsky, Crowley himself, Frater Achad and Kenneth Grant too. Still, I stick by my word that he's better than any of the "big guys" in the mainstream Thelemic world, period. |

The stuff he's currently putting out is still very intricate and awesome, I find myself running into synchronicities with him often.
