NOTES

Note:
Prof. Blaser’s “Sacred Geography” series breaks down into two organizational components, that of semi-formal lectures and that of seminars. The lectures have been indexed and are to be found throughout the Audio Tape Holdings catalogue under their respective accession numbers. The indexing is fairly self-explanatory. The seminars are not indexed for a variety of reasons, however, in conjunction with its respective lecture tape, each seminar is both important and invaluable to an understanding of the “Sacred Geography” series and the intentions of Prof. Blaser. “And knowing”, Confucius says, “brings one to the goal”. Sacred Geography Lecture, October 22, 1976 (#630)
