About Spirit Mysteries
Spirit Mysteries is a space dedicated to the evolution of consciousness. It's an environment for you to explore the mysteries of magic and energy by oneself and/or with a community, to build tools and knowledge for greater wisdom in your life.
This is a home for the sacred, a place for you to raise your vibration and explore your consciousness with other seekers around the world. It is a school as well as a place to meet fellow initiates of greater cosmic wisdom. Within Spirit Mysteries we explore and expand upon the content and topics we present through our videos on youtube, where we opened up the lids on many topics so that we can understand and integrate what the various esoteric and practical systems have to offer. Where our Youtube content may offer simple explanations of vast subjects, this Mystery School is a space for you to truly become initiated into the mysteries, through Classes, Workshops, Live Events, Discussions, and more.
At Team Spirit, we have the intention to share in the journey of spiritual evolution with respect for all walks of life, and honoring that which is beautiful and divine within all of us. We aim to empower you with the resources and tools passed on through the ages by observing their hidden truths and developing our own expression of their lessons.
Spirit Science began in 2011 by Jordan River as animated videos exploring new age subjects. Since its launch, Spirit Science gained massive traction across its social media channels, amassing millions of views and subscribers worldwide!
Spirit Mysteries was born after a series of visionary experiences involving a visit from Thoth at Rythmia: Life Advancement Center, and guidance to create a modern revival of the Ancient Mysteries. It was created with devotion to wisdom, higher learning, and spiritual growth, under the banner of Truth, Love, and Authenticity. Every single day, Spirit Mysteries evolves with us!
But while Spirit Mysteries is the beginning of mystical wisdom, this is only the next iteration of a great lineage of teachings. Scroll down, and discover the Ancient Secrets of the Mysteries of the Ancients...
The History of the Mysteries
Five thousand years ago, before Christianity and even before Ancient Greece, there was Egypt. This was one of the earliest civilizations we know of today, and their culture was rich in knowledge, ancient sciences, and mystic spirituality.
The Egyptians were wise beyond measure, and it is here we find some of the earliest forms of mathematics, botany, theology, civilized government, geometry, astronomy, accounting, and even medicine.
It is not known today precisely how these people advanced so far, and so fast. Many today believe that it was simply a time of unparalleled innovation, where others insist, just as the Egyptian writings declared, that they received the knowledge from those who excelled beyond themselves.
One of the most unique aspects of Ancient Egyptian culture was that of the Mystery Schools. For more than 3,000 years, the mystery schools of Egypt epitomized the ultimate in secret wisdom and knowledge. These were some of the earliest forms of organized spirituality, but they were not like our religions are today. These sacred schools were designed for the initiates to elevate their consciousness, and move into higher dimensions of life experience, in order to become guides for the rest of humanity.
The Mysteries were passed down through history, and eventually became known far and wide in different forms across that part of the world, from Persia to India.
The Greek Mysteries
It was in 500 BC that a man named Pythagoras travelled from his homeland to Egypt and applied to join the Egyptian Mysteries. Time and time again, he was turned away. He was told that unless he completed a 40 day meditation of fasting, while practicing a specific breathing technique, he would not be allowed to enter.
When he completed this journey, he arrived at the temple gates and spoke: “You are not allowing Pythagoras in. I am a different man, I am reborn. You were right and I was wrong, because then my whole standpoint was intellectual. Through this purification, my center of being has changed. Before this training I could only understand through the intellect, through the head. Now I can feel. Now truth is not a concept to me, but a life."
Pythagoras spent many years learning from the Egyptians, and it wasn’t until about 36 years later that he returned to his homeland of Samos, where he established a new Mystery School of his own, modelled after his experiences in Egypt. At the entrance of his temple there was a statue of Hermes Trismegistus, the Greek version of the Egyptian God of Wisdom Thoth, with an inscription on the pedestal that read: “Let no profane enter here.”
The Mysteries exploded in popularity across the Greco-Roman Empire over the next 500 years, which we can see in the writings of many ancient philosophers today.
The Mysteries were a safe and sacred space, a place where people were transformed from being ordinary people, to enlightened and awakened beings, instruments of transformation and elevation for all of humanity.
What the Ancients said about the Mysteries
“We beheld the beatific visions and were initiated into the Mystery which may be truly called blessed, celebrated by us in a state of innocence. We beheld calm, happy, simple, eternal visions, resplendent in pure light.”
~Plato
"...without the Mysteries, life for the Greeks would be unliveable, for the sacred Mysteries hold the whole human race together.”
~Zosimos
“These Mysteries have brought us from rustic savagery to a cultivated and refined civilization. The rites of the Mysteries are called “initiations”, and in truth we have learned from them the first principles of life. We have gained the understanding not only to live happily but also to die with better hope.”
~Cicero
“It is a hard road to follow, filled with darkness and gloom; but if an initiate leads you on the way, it becomes brighter than the radiance of the sun.”
~Heraclitus
