Ep370: What is Prophecy? - Alan Chapman

In this episode I am once again joined by Alan Chapman, British writer, occultist, and spiritual teacher. Alan takes a deep dive into his understanding of the phenomenon of prophecy, how it operates, and its surprising purpose. Alan explains the different between prophecy and prediction, the tests a prophet will face, and contrasts his approach to that of the Old Testament prophets. Alan also shares stories of his own prophetic experiences, including a prophecy which he believes concerns events to come in 2026. … Video version: www.guruviking.com Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast’. … Topics Include: 00:00 - Intro 00:43 - Prophecy vs prediction 02:57 - What is prophecy? 03:27 - Prophecy and the path of awakening 03:51 - 2 worlds 05:58 - Expressing the silent knowing 08:43 - Confounding factors on the path 11:32 - Surprising encounters as awakening deepens 12:24 - The role of the prophet 15:00 - Are musicians and artists prophets? 16:26 - Speaking truth to power 20:20 - Alan’s prophetic dream about Fukushima 21:51 - Prophecy about Alan’s awakening 26:04 - Premonitions and more on Fukushima 27:03 - Prediction vs prophecy 30:35 - Divine mercy and a parental tone 31:50 - Purpose of prophecy 34:58 - Divine judgement and smiting 36:36 - Interpreting Old Testament prophecy 40:47 - Love not wrath 45:21 - Is a prophecy inevitable or can it be changed? 50:04 - Incarnation and identity formation 52:21 - Path of spiritual seeking 53:18 - Rebellion and revenge 54:25 - Cultural rebellion and inevitability 58:39 - Analysing Alan’s Fukushima prophecy 01:01:27 - Oracles and prophetic institutions 01:03:00 - Alan’s prophecy about 2026 01:24:44 - Teachers and trusting the silent knowing 01:28:44 - Understanding why prophecy happens 01:30:37 - Has Alan failed? 01:34:26 - Tests on the path 01:38:16 - Alan’s comments on Western culture 01:38:44 - We have forgotten the divine 01:42:13 - The Presocratics were prophets and magicians 01:44:23 - Alan comments on today’s geopolitical and cultural situation 01:46:23 - False flags and true flags 01:49:59 - Alan’s advice for living in today’s world 01:53:03 - Beatitudes and being light 01:56:30 - The consequences of violating your conscience 01:59:07 - True repentance 02:01:55 - Alan’s relationship with Jesus Christ 02:12:07 - Upcoming Magia exegesis 02:13:43 - Planned series about Alan’s Magia system … Previous episodes with Alan Chapman: - https://www.guruviking.com/search?q=chapman To find our more about Alan Chapman visit: - https://barbarouswords.com/ For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - https://www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi’ by Steve James
