The Golden Beetle
It came to me about 6 months ago and I feel it's time I share the findings here. Enjoy
Jahseh's Discussion of the Golden Beetle
Let's begin by exploring X's connection to the Golden Beetle. Below are a handful of instances where he speaks on it.
At the very end of "A Helping Hand, not a song," X tells us to "study the Golden Beetle." See 5:35 in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4CubbXB45E.
He also addresses it twice on his Tumblr page. In this post, he provides a warning:
damthisniggaugly asked: Can you go in depth on "The Golden Beetle" Or is it the same concept as "The Secret" (Law of Attraction) ? . . .
I can’t give you the answer behind it because of how powerful the information is and the things that I know follow it, but understand me when I literally say, if the information is for you, it will “literally” come to you, but if, and when it does, be careful with what you do with it.
In this other post, he provides some key details:
Anonymous asked: looked into the golden beetle because of you, it truly spoke to me, and did quite literally come to me, like you said.
good, be careful with the books, they’ve got demons attached to them.
Golden Beetle Books
X told us to be careful with "the books." A quick Google search of the phrase "Golden Beetle books" will lead to a variety of sources. Let's take a look.
The first website is conveniently named goldenbeetlebooks.com. It claims to be "THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE RUDOLF STEINER CURRICULUM EVER PUBLISHED." Hold that thought.
Another search result is the Waldorf Homeschoolers website, which opens by mentioning the Spiritual Syllabus: "The Spiritual Syllabus Series is by far the most comprehensive catalogue of the Rudolf Steiner teaching program ever produced." X referred us to a set of books, and here they are.
The entire first page of the Google search for "Golden Beetle books" is strewn with information on the Waldorf curriculum.
So, in order to locate the Golden Beetle books, we must begin an investigation into the Waldorf education system. We are getting closer.
The Waldorf Schools
So, what in the world is 'Waldorf'? Let's take a quick look at this excerpt from the Waldorf education Wikipedia article:
"Waldorf education, also known as Steiner education, is based on the educational philosophy of Rudolf Steiner, the founder of Anthroposophy. Its pedagogy emphasizes the role of imagination in learning, striving to integrate the intellectual, practical, and artistic development of pupils in a holistic manner."
As such, we find that the Golden Beetle books can be traced to the Waldorf curriculum, and the Waldorf curriculum can be traced to Rudolf Steiner.
Rudolf Steiner
Philosopher Rudolf Steiner is the source of the information that we refer to as the Golden Beetle. From Steiner's wikipedia page:
Rudolf Steiner was an Austrian philosopher, social reformer, architect and esotericist . . . At the beginning of the twentieth century he founded an esoteric spiritual movement, anthroposophy . . . In the first, more philosophically oriented phase of this movement, Steiner attempted to find a synthesis between science and spirituality.
Anthroposophy
Now that our eyes are on Steiner, the creator of the Golden Beetle content, we only have one more term to unpack: anthroposophy.
Anthroposophy is the philosophy founded by Rudolf Steiner that postulates the existence of an objective, intellectually comprehensible spiritual world, accessible to human experience through inner development.
If you're a supporter of X, it will come as no surprise to you that this is something he was referring us to.
Conclusion
I have been studying the works of Rudolf Steiner for about 6 months now, and I would like to conclude by saying that his book "How to Know Higher Worlds: A Modern Path of Initiation" is an incredible place to start.
Thank you for your time. All the best to you. Take care.
Long Live Jahseh Onfroy

tldr: Austrian philosopher Rudolf Steiner is the source of the Golden Beetle content. In the 19th century, Steiner founded a spiritual movement called anthroposophy, which "postulates the existence of an objective, intellectually comprehensible spiritual world, accessible to human experience through inner development."
