Is it worth standing up or even saying anything at all in the present situation?   How long before the Assembly of Silence goes silent?   Not just yet but it’s definitely under consideration.   In the meantime - here's some more thoughts for y’all!   Enjoy!

What are we to do with ourselves?   A conversation about the uncertain times ahead kicked off by some interesting correlations between themes in Taoism and the Hebrew Bible.  In the intro I mention Unity2020: http://articlesofunity.org At some point I talk about my former life as a musician: http://weak.bandcamp.com Here's my current musical project: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYaKY3WkrK_kxa...

A hearty welcome to our new Assembly guest: Devin aka Devin the Mindful Mage.   Noah and Devin discuss strategies for dealing with the present situation, otherwise known as the only possible topic.   Humanity has an unbelievable ability to normalize almost anything and when fear runs deep people will accept the unacceptable.  Devin’s email: devin@themindfulmage.com and his website:  humminghawkhyp...

Jeff and Noah first consider whether or not attempts to predict and control a situation leads to good results.

Judah and Noah discuss some of the things we tend to avoid talking about - as usual!   No, it’s not just about death but that’s where we started and it all went the way things normally go when Judah and Noah get together - in a word: everywhere.

If you don’t know Ken Wheeler - he’s a translator of ancient Greek, Sanskrit and Pali texts, tatted from head to toe and author of “Uncovering the Missing Secrets of Magnetism”.   Wheeler is an iconoclastic figure within philosophical, metaphysical, scholarly and scientific circles who now appears to be spending most of his time making YouTube videos (on his Theoria Apophasis channel) about metaph...

A train of thought about our world’s pervading sense of crises, the true meaning of good and evil, the law of unintended consequences, the importance of playing the game to the very end and the power of unexpected love - with loads of commentary ex post facto.  Also - a brief clip from a forthcoming episode with Cahlen included as a bonus at the end.   Happy New Year to All ASRH Listeners!

This episode features more Assembly of Silence Moments per square meter of podcast than any other to this date. A triumph that will one day appear in the beer book of world records - assuming the world sticks around long enough to recognize the achievement. The prospects are not looking good. The collective anger appears to be reaching a peak during this countdown to oblivion. No, it’s not funny -...

John and I continue our conversation from the last episode. Reckoning with the decadent art we loved or Hated and which surrounded us irrespectively. The final rather oblique segment of this conversation is available to Patreon supporters here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/32184648 ASRH Contact/Support: silentassembly@protonmail.com https://www.patreon.com/taijireality BTC: 3ArEkk6xAZia13gmtJzbmE...

I don’t think anyone ever reads these summaries so I’m not sure it’s worth writing much about what happens in the episode.   It’s a conversation you won’t want to miss.   John is a great guest and we explore many interesting topics.   What else do you need to know about it?  If anyone wants a real summary text please complain or else I'm likely to continue along these vague lines. If you were hopi...

The impossibility of coming to any consensus on what we might do differently while we all agree we’re heading over the cliff. Is the surveillance state the only way to curtail conspicuous consumption?   We may be taming the species so that freedom is a farce - but does anyone have any better ideas?
