In each episode, Michaelis and Natalie are joined by a guest who has had the same spiritual experience as a result of this work. You can find Michaelis at https:// ...

A great many theorists have argued that the defining feature of modernity is that people no longer believe in spirits, myths, or magic. Jason Ā.

Even the human sciences have been more en…
