    Samael Aun Weor? Unmoderated opinions please..

    Hi. I don't know if this is the right forum for this. I seek unmoderated yet calm, informed opinions about the teachings of Samael Aun Weor. There was a thread in DIR which had most statements moderated out of existence. This is clearly a controversial figure in the realm of south american...

    Help identifying a diety on a poster.. surrounded by tools.

    Hello! A friend of mine brought back from India a curious poster of a young mustachioed god on an elephant surrounded by a halo of tools. The halo itself has cogs like a gear. The god has four arms and carries an axe, a hammer (or pipe?), a bow, and a set of scales. In the foreground is a...
