Ian is joined by his bandmate Adam Ormes to interview the Norwegian esoteric teacher Are Thoresen upon his first visit to Lithuania.

We talk about Are’s spiritual perceptions, Rudolf Steiner’s Northern Path of Initiation, the connection between Northern paganism and esoteric Christianity, the elemental worlds, and the places where culture and spirit might meet today.
