Since 1980, David E. Hopper has been a student of esotericism, also known as the Sacred Teachings or Ageless Wisdom. He has presented to groups expressing various forms of the Wisdom Teachings in Arizona, California, Colorado, Oregon, Washington and Russia. 

In 2009, He completed the Arcane School through the Lucis Trust. Currently, David serves as a faculty member of the online esoteric school Morya Federation:  http://www.moryafederation.net.  Recently, he has presented a 6-part course on the “Journey of the Soul” through Zoom. Course materials can be viewed at: makara.us.  He makes regular presentations at the Seven Ray Conference: https://sevenray.org in the Spring.  Also, through the Lucis Trust, he has published articles  on topics related to the Ageless Wisdom.

In the last 6 years, he has published  three books: “The Soul Source – A Primer for Living as a Soul”, “Subjective Influences of the 10 Seed (Service) Groups”, and “Glossary of Esoteric Thought”.  Each of these books are available in paperback (US address only) and digital download on this website.  See the Books tab.

The “Soul Source” provides a clear insight into the nature of the Soul and setting up a Spiritual Practice and living as a Soul. The book on the “10 Seed (Service) Groups” provides an understanding on the primary groups, e.g. political, scientific, educational, religious, healing, financial services, etc. that make up our civilization and their spiritual potential.  The “Glossary of Esoteric Thought” is an excellent resource for students of the Trans-Himalayan Teachings for understanding the complex terminology of esoteric topics.

Other interests involve traveling, hiking, bicycle riding, watching movies with spiritual themes and talking to anyone on subjects that expresses and fosters goodwill and awareness, especially relating to international affairs.
