In Episode 3 of A Conversation with Cometan, a fascinating conversation takes place between Dr. Jeffrey Kotyk and Cometan regarding meta-astrological issues, such as "what is astrology", "should it be considered as religion", . Following on from this, the conversation moves into an explanation of astral magic, the history of astrology in Chinese civilisation, its interactions with Buddhism and Confucianism, and finally, Cometan explains how he sees Astrology's place as being part of the Astronic religious tradition (or Astronicism). A big thank you to Jeffrey for a brilliant conversation this evening.
Quickly following on from Episode 3, a Special Episode 4 of A Conversation with Cometan has arrived and includes a lecture given by Cometan titled Astronism: A Space Religion on 2nd December 2020 to a cohort of students and lecturer Harith Ramli at Edge Hill University in Ormskirk. In this lecture, Cometan delivers a succinct explanation of the fundamentals of Astronism (including astronality, astrosis and cosmosis), what the phrase space religion means, and how the origins of the Astronic religious tradition can be traced back 40,000 BCE during the Upper Palaeolithic Stone Age. Following on from the lecture itself, a question and answer session ensues followed by a broader discussion of Astronist cosmology and theology with greater interaction with students and from Dr. Ramli himself.
