Mission Statement

Mythologically, The Holy Grail was a specific item, but now we use the term as a metaphor for a thing that is being earnestly pursued or sought after. Here's why we think each of our Grails qualify. 

In the case of Ancient Man, we have been earnestly pursuing insight about our origins since we started asking "why". Without the intellect and resilience of our ancestors, we would not be here today, so it is out of respect for who they actually were, and respect for our innate curiosity, that we study the clues they left behind. With technologies, like LiDAR, uncovering new evidence all the time, we believe the study of our origins begs to be called a Grail.

Games have been a way to learn, pass the time, and connect with friends since we were drawing lines in the dirt. By the year 2023, gaming will be a 200 billion dollar industry. We love our games, and we think gaming is an integral part of being human. From peek-a-boo to Dungeons & Dragons to virtual reality, games and game theory underpin our every day existence so strongly that it would be difficult to imagine reality without games. Gaming at it's heart is about the earnest pursuit to surmount the obstacle, to prove one's medal, to be the best. 

The quest for automation and robotics--by which we extend our reach, efficacy, and efficiency--is ancient and ongoing. Not surprisingly, on the subject of robotics and AI in ancient times the World Economic Forum quoted Gods and Robots: Myths, Machines, and Ancient Dreams of Technology by Adrienne Mayor: “Historians usually trace the idea of automata to the Middle Ages, when humans first invented self-moving devices, but the concept of artificial, lifelike creatures dates to the myths and legends from at least about 2,700 years ago..." 

Some researchers believe it's possible to go even farther back! Although no devices have been recovered, there is evidence that certain elements of megalithic construction would have been impossible without the use of core drills and other such advanced stone-working devices, many of which may have been automated. As we learn about what the ancients left behind, the evidence “cries out from the rocks” themselves. For HGM, Robotics is a Grail because it remains a quintessential part of our advancement as a species, allowing us to discover the mysteries of outer and inner space.

Finally, the intrinsic substance of mind and body qualify it to be a Grail. Meta Mind & Body will explore mental and physical wellness, new developments in pharmacology, psychology, philosophy, and so much more.  

While Galileo Galilei was among the first to use a telescope to observe the sky, according to Sethian Gnosticism, Seth's decedents are credited with the discovery of what we now call astrology and astronomy. Whatever the case, decoding the stars and our place within them has always been of utmost importance, and with the advent of the space age, our relationship to the stars has only expanded! It goes without saying that space exploration is now one of our highest priorities as a species, both for survival and adventure, and the Grail of Outer Space is here for it! 

For many, "Mystic Arts" conjures images of Hogwarts, the upcoming Marvel's Masters of the Mystic Arts, or the paranormal in general, but the mystic arts of ancient times were a unique blend of Gnosticism, Hermeticism, Animism, Shamanism, Astrology, and more. In the ways and words of the Ancients we find wisdom that can help us today, and for this reason, Mystic Arts is a Grail.
