Occult researcher Alex Rivera walks through his books, including The Baphomet co-written with the late Tracy Twyman, framing them as stages of an alchemical Great Work. He traces the Baphomet from the heresy charges against the Knights Templar through the Austrian orientalist Joseph von Hammer-Purgstall and Eliphas Levi, and links it to Gnostic, Sufi and Hermetic currents. Along the way he weighs whether Templar artifacts in the British Museum reveal a hidden Gnostic religion that later resurfaced in Freemasonry.
