  • Abbott George comes across as a “Fundamentally Kindhearted and Genuinely Nice Guy,” who speaks the Wisdom of the Ages, in a very Down to Earth and Entertaining Way, that specifically targets Everyday Folks. P.S. Been “Enquiring in the Temple” for nigh-on-to 60 years here, as well, and Abbott George’s “de-spooking” of the “spiritually presumed power and forces of negation” (re: Satan, Lucifer, Sin, Darkness, Self-Ignorance and the like, etc.) is as good as “esoteric deciphering” gets.
