Cometan and Professor Emeritus Michael York discuss the intersection of the Pagan and Astronic religious traditions to understand their similarities and differences. The pair also explore the concept of salvation in Astronism, specifically transcension as a linear rather than cyclical form of salvation with the latter adhered to by most Pagan and Dharmic traditions. Cometan and York come to discuss how the worldviews of Astronism and Paganism diverge from one another since they follow cosmocentrism and a form of geocentrism respectively. This timely and fascinating conversation forges a clearer understanding of Cometan's view that Astronicism is a religious tradition with prehistoric roots distinct from that of Paganism despite the two traditions having long interacted and influenced each other's development.
