Secret Origins of Transhumanism & The New Atlantis

Esplicito

From the temples of Ancient Egypt to Silicon Valley boardrooms, the dream of transcending human limits has stalked civilization like a shadow. This episode pulls back the veil on transhumanism, its hidden roots in Hermeticism, Rosicrucian mysticism, and Francis Bacon’s New Atlantis. We trace the lineage from the occult whispers of Hermes Trismegistus to the cold eugenics of Julian Huxley, and finally into the hands of today’s architects: Peter Thiel, Ray Kurzweil, and Elon Musk. The story is not progress, but prophecy unfolding before us.
