Manuel Casanueva is a scholar and beloved teacher in his home country of Chile as well as a faculty member of 22 Teachings. Manuel teaches Classical Greek and Latin series in our Language Arts department as well as multi-part series shown below which are grounded in lecture and developed through ritual and meditation. Blending wisdom teachings and energetic practices, these offerings are part lecture, part theurgic rite where students are transported to ancient sacred sites, meet the minds of the hermetic philosophers and alchemists, hear and recite source texts in sacred classical language, and in the student, transformation occurs.
