The Ancient Tradition

13
Religion #42

Have you ever wondered if God/Supreme Being/Deity/Demiurge, upon the creation of the earth, revealed to human beings a pure, true, religious tradition? In this podcast we explore the surprising and mind-boggling evidence found in the oldest ancient religious writings, cosmologies, theologies, symbols, sacred architecture, rituals, and myths, pointing to a distinct primordial tradition- The Ancient Tradition. We delve into the evidence, examine the patterns, discuss the theology, and contemplate the spiritual implications. It’s a podcast guaranteed to spark discussion, provoke questions, and, ultimately, inspire the pursuit of the divine.  Visit us on the web at theancienttradition.com and  www.youtube.com/@theancienttradition for more amazing comparative religion.

    Amazing!!
    So amazing!! The only thing that confuses me but maybe she will talk about it later.. I thought the tree of life was supposed to represent the divine mother, who is the throne to the Son of God.
  • Kylene Jones
    Amazing!
    Thank you so much for making this podcast! My eyes have been opened and I am very grateful for your sacrifice and blessing my life with knowledge!

    Website is a bit tricky, but FANTASTIC podcast!
    I’m writing this kind of in response to a different reviewer who complained of the lack of citation on the website beyond episode 4: this is not true, there are links with further material for each episode under the “show notes” tab of the menu. I WILL say, that the website menu does NOT work on my tablet, it only functions properly on my phone, but the formatting is so weird on my phone that it’s only readable if I flip my phone to a horizontal orientation. I was slightly miffed I couldn’t get it to work on my tablet, but the search bar on the website did work when I tried changing the address to go to the “scholars” page (as I said, changing the address to /scholars/ didn’t work, but searching the term on the resultant “broken link” page worked just fine on my tablet). I appreciate the bios about her favorite scholars and the links on that page to their books which she frequently references, some of which are available to read for free online! The whole podcast is great, I love mining the symbolism. If you want sources cited within particular episodes, I suggest going through the transcripts as the host frequently quotes directly from sources (and sometimes lists exact pages) within the episodes.

    It all makes perfect sense.
    This podcast makes so much sense and it right in line with my own religious beliefs, yet help me understand it even more. Thank you, Dr. Jack Logan, for enlightening me and expanding the knowledge I already have!!

    Fantastic podcast for anyone who loves ancient religious traditions
    People need to understand that all religious came from one basic religion handed down by God himself. It is man who has made changes. This podcasts speaks to the basics of the creation and what happened that brought all of us here as children of a loving God.

    Game changer
    Having read all the comments left for this podcast I can only say I agree with each and every one of them as of June 17, 2024-so far not one is negative. Admittedly I'm curious about the background of Dr. Logan but I can see why she keeps herself anonymous as the concepts discussed are so deep some will unfortunately go on the attack. I am changed as a result of listening to all of the episodes and half way through for the second time. Am sharing with those I love.

    Couldn’t Recommend More!
    Dr. Jack Logan hits each episode of this mind-blowing podcast out of the park. I’ve studied the ancient tradition for a decade now and haven’t begun to get as expansive, inclusive and comprehensive as Dr. Jack. For those of us hungry for more clarity about our divine roots, and yearning for greater understanding about this grand cosmic play we’re part of, this is the place to land. I could not recommend this podcast more. Of the many things to spend time on, listening and learning from Dr Jack is an investment in the soul that pays ridiculously rich dividends. I wish there was a way to say more than Thank you. But for what it’s worth, please accept this listeners sincere, THANK YOU!!!
  • Nrasmuss
    Wonderful
    I absolutely love this podcast. I am always anxious for the next episode to come out. I have listened to every episode multiple times and learned so much. I feel a much stronger connection to God and the temple because of Ancient Tradition.
  • Adam.Bradley
    Love it! Every Christian should listen to this.
    This is what the Christian world needs right now. Total context. There is so much that is believed that is wrong and mostly just because it is so new. The ancients knew everything and we can learn from them. Dr. Jack is amazing. Keep it up.
  • melissahoihbk
    Wonderful but frustrating
    I like the information shared, but she says I can get more information, links, quotes, pictures etc. However, past episode #4, none of this is there. There is no option to comment on the website so I’m having to air my grievance here. I like to be able to cite sources when discussing things more than “a podcaster using a fake name said . . . “ and yes I googled her name and can’t find her anywhere so assume a fake name.

    Great and Want More Info
    I've listened to a couple of episodes and found them to be very interesting! I'm looking forward to learning more! The reason I gave 4 stars rather than 5 is because I've been unable to verify Dr. Logan’s credentials (e.g., where she teaches or any research she has conducted). Is there any place we can find information on Dr. Logan’s professional activities (teaching, research, etc.)? I have tried to find information about Dr. Logan’s work but haven't had any luck so far. While I respect any desire to maintain privacy, I also hope to be able to verify sources where I get my information from online.

    The Ancient Tradition
    This is an amazing podcast with incredible research behind it. The exploration of symbolic imagery inspires me to look for more depth and connection to God in my own study. Beautifully done, I look forward to learning more.

    Loving it
    I am only a few episodes in to this podcast and I am loving it. Interesting and meaningful content, high quality audio, engaging voice. Jack, is this going to be a book?
  • Lauren4Liberty
    Must listen!!!!
    I’ve listened to all of the back episodes in about two weeks and I plan on starting it all over again. I understand so much more than I ever have. Many of my questions have been answered. So thankful to have found this podcast, it was EXACTLY what I was looking for.
  • Enrique Holiday
    Phenomenal
    Jack, What a phenomenal podcast! I amazed how you have taken the religions of the Ancients to wove a tapestry of the Creator’s plan. If you teach a comparative religion at your University, I would really be interested in attending. Keep blowing our minds!
  • JCache2023
    Brilliant! Crazy Good Podcast!
    I LOVE this podcast! I love how everything on this podcast is backed up by TEXTUAL EVIDENCE… straight from the ancient texts themselves!! Truly brilliant!
  • Whit2022
    Garden of Eden
    I learned so much from this episode from the Garden of Eden. It clarifies and expounds what I can glean from temple worship.
  • EssentialGrandma
    Treasure of a Podcast!
    I am overwhelmed with all that I’m learning from these podcasts. These are a gift and I’m so grateful that someone recommended this podcast to me! I will be listening to them over and over again.

    My Eyes Have Been Opened
    I found this podcast five days ago and have binge-listened since! I am hooked and should probably pace myself better so I can let some of the information I’m learning sink in a little more before moving onto the next episode. I find everything Dr. Logan talks about fascinating and helping me better understand my own religious beliefs and practices. What a phenomenal podcast! I would love to know more about the host though. Where are you from? Where do you teach? Have you written any articles, or maybe even books so I can learn more? I love it all!
  • nshipp
    She was always meant to do this Podcast
    You know when you find someone doing exactly what they were always meant to do? This is Jack Logan, she was meant to teach this to all people. It is inspiring me to higher spiritual knowledge and understanding I would have never thought about. I’ve sent this to religious and non-religious people alike. By 2 or 3 witnesses are all His words established, well He always gives us much more from what I’ve seen.
  • Mtokozisi
    ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!
    Words can’t express enough my appreciation for this podcast. It is so full of truth that I’m often overcome with the spirit while listening to it. Powerful symbolism all pointing to our path back into God’s presence through His son Jesus Christ! Gods love for his children is so evident when I consider how he has restored these truths in these days, and the realization that he has done the same in every age and with every people. I see now the essential nature of Gods temples here on earth today. I can’t look and any scriptural text without seeing these patterns clearly outlined for those with eyes to see. May we each find joy in receiving light and truth line upon line, precept upon precept all the way back into the Father’s presence!

    INCREDIBLY ENLIGHTENING!
    Through the years, I’ve bumped into common threads in world religions and thought we were missing the unity that we should have ;-) - and now Jack brings everything together with such clarity! Thank you for this beautiful, uplifting series!
  • App cool guys
    Best thing I’ve heard in a long time
    Love this podcast!
  • Alliecrenshaw38
    Incredibly impactful
    Somehow I’m crying from just the first podcast. God loved his children. Thank you so much for putting this together Jack. It has strengthened my faith, as so much of this jives with my beliefs as a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and our traditions in our temples
  • Jefe bon siglio
    Absolutely fascinating
    Dr. Logan does a great job distilling elements of truth from the most ancient religious writings in her quest to find the original truths revealed by God to man. Her conclusions resonate, enoble, and point the listener to God and our divine potential as His children. I like her focus on gaining spiritual knowledge, and the validation of other forms of epistemology than rationalism.
  • raerae1998
    Thank you for this podcast!
    I have been looking for something like this for a long time! You are incredibly talented and I’m blessed to have found this!
  • Justin Bieber Superfan
    Inspiring
    I have always loved the comparison of texts and writings as this podcast does with many world religious writings. I am learning so much from this podcast as connections are made across ancient texts. It is helping me understand my own theology with more clarity and depth.
  • lpljaami
    Amazing!!!
    This is an incredible podcast! The vast knowledge that is brought together is brilliant!! I can’t get enough of it!
  • calizco
    I am loving this
    This is such a great podcast for those who are deep thinkers and ready to hear it. I love how she shows all the stories in all of our modern day movies, books, etc. Even kids cartoons! Ever watch the Care Bears?!? I can’t wait for new episodes.
  • Janessaktaylor
    LIFE CHANGING!
    I just caught up and I’m very sad. I have to wait for the next episode! I now have a much more authentic vision of what the purpose of life is, and what is in store for us after we die. If only every mortal was curious enough to have a listen. I have been actively proselyting for the podcast though and my mom loves it 😂. Dr. Logan, I hope you have tons of listeners because I don’t want you to ever stop!!
  • Mjoys7
    Need to listen to each episode at least twice
    This has changed my religious symbol knowledge in profound ways. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your research and insights Dr. Logan. Please keep up the good work. I have a group of friends who actively discuss and await each episode!
  • EmilyOrton2020
    Listening Every Second I Get
    The depth of scholarship in this podcast delights my soul. As a disciple in a Christian faith that holds closely to these Divinely revealed temple-based ancient traditions, it gives me increasing joy to see at the sacred symbols I cherish and rites I practice through the eyes of so many cultures throughout time.
  • burkeo
    I keep recommending this to friends
    A friend told me about this podcast and now I’m sharing it with family members and friends alike. Each episode is well-researched, interesting and often inspirational. Soon I’ll be caught up and then I’ll have to wait with eager anticipation for new episodes to be released.
  • cme35
    A glorious mind-expanding podcast!
    I can feel my spirit buzz with excitement as I hear these cosmic truths (again) for the first time! Thank you Jack Logan!
  • Alma2612
    I can’t stop listening
    I just heard about this podcast from a friend. I’ve only listened to two episodes and I’m hooked. I’m so excited to continue on this journey. Thank you Jack for sharing with us your decades of research in a way that strikes at the heart of many of the questions I’ve had in the space of 50 years of life. I’m grateful for your perspective and scholarly yet spiritual approach.
  • michan540
    Amazing
    This podcast should be heard by all. It is thoroughly researched and fascinating. There’s no way to contact the creators so I hope they see this comment because I recommend looking at the website of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. There is copious amounts of information saying exactly what this podcast is about. They believe these things!
  • itskarajane
    Top Favorite Podcast
    I listen to every episode more than once! This is life changing information. She present the information in a clear, precise, well formulated way that is easy for all to understand.
  • Taran Alexandre the Great
    Amazing!! Best podcast on comparative religion!!
    A captivating, scholarly, & NECESSARY re-examination of perennial mythology!! A fresh approach to traditionalism via comparative examination of the most Ancient mythological traditions. As someone who has only recently determined it necessary to somehow fit the concepts of gods & spirituality, into my otherwise critical, scientific, & materialist worldview; this show is HIGHLY recommended. It’s insights on comparative religion & mythology, have played a quintessential source of inspiration during my recent/current religious reawakening.
  • Ericabase
    Excellent
    This podcast is amazing. I have been on a quest to learn about other religions, and this is delightfully presented.
