Essentially an audio book of Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jungs Gnostic hymn Septem Sermones ad Mortuos (The Seven Sermons to the Dead).
Why there is a need for a Dirk von Lowtzow reading of this material is beyond me, does he receive gratuities from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology for bring the ethereal wisdom of the Gnostics to the Minimal Tech set to supplement their lacking audio book sales?
I dont rightly know, but if youre interested in hearing a 45+ minute sermon focused largely on the Pleroma (the term is uttered what seems like 250 times overall) maybe this is for you, personally it was of zero value and waste of a good part of an hour, a first for a generally great label.
