Fakirs and Holy Men: Mysticism in America, Europe and the Middle East — with Raphael Cormack and Finbar Anderson

On this week’s episode, writer Raphael Cormack tells New Lines’ Finbar Anderson about the mystics who fused elements of the spiritual and the modern to build huge followings from Beirut to New York in the early 20th century, as described in his new book “Holy Men of the Electromagnetic Age: A Forgotten History of the Occult.”
