Book Description

For the true seekers of Right Knowledge, this work marvellously defines the two great paths of life. The magical path: those who are on the quest for new frontiers of invention - scientific, technological and social reforming; and, the mystical path: those on the quest of spiritual enlightenment and Self-realisation through metaphysical principles; the path of meditation toward true inner Love, Peace and Joy. So this major work - Volumes 1 & 2 of the MMSN series, is basically a collaboration of esoterical (spiritual) as well as exoterical (physical) information from various cultures, religions, and ancient writings as well as modern writings - from all around the world. The book is therefore excellent as a comparative tool. The reader will come across various mental concepts and conclusions regarding spiritual enlightenment. However, regardless of the concepts that are being addressed, the reader is constantly being reminded that there is but ONE Universal Spirit that runs through ALL THAT IS

Book Description

A witty and life-affirming account of a spiritual seeker’s year-long quest for enlightenment. 'What if you could find inner peace right where you are? No one-way ticket to paradise required...' After a terrible year, feeling burned out and broken, Emma Howarth decided to go on a year-long mystical adventure - from the comfort of her own home. The result was a year that changed everything. A year that turned frantic chaos into life in the slow lane. A year of magic and moonlight and pink sky sunrises. A year fragranced with incense and burning herbs (that sometimes smelled suspiciously illegal). A Year of Mystical Thinking is Emma's witty and life-affirming account of the year that transformed her world. Each month she introduces a new spiritual practice, with practical, actionable tips - from how to create the perfect vision board to living by the phases of the moon. Join Emma on her journey as she connects with spirit guides in February, obsesses over astrology in August and learns about reiki in November.

Book Description

Advancing to higher levels of ritual magic with purpose and power requires an exaltation of consciousness-a spiritual transformation that can serve as an antitode to the seeming banality of modern life. Based on Kabbalistic techniques, the teachings of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, and an Hermetic tradition spanning nearly two thousand years, this innovative new work introduces the history of the Golden Dawn and its mythology, the Tree of Life, Deities, demons, rules for practicing magic, and components of effective ritual. A comprehensive course of self-initiation using Israel Regardie's seminal Golden Dawn as a key reference point, Kabbalah, Magic and the Great Work of Self-Transformation guides you through the levels of the Golden Dawn system of ritual magic. Each grade in this system corresponds with a sphere in the Kabbalistic Tree of Life and includes daily rituals, required reading, written assignments, projects, and additional exercises. Knowledgeable and true to tradition, author Lyam Thomas Christopher presents a well-grounded and modern step-by-step program toward spiritual attainment, providing a lucid gateway toward a more awakened state.

Book Description

This book celebrates the great stripping process of aging, dying and spiritual awakening. Beautiful, poignant, at times humorous, transcendent, messy, down to earth, refreshingly honest--the book explores death, and more importantly, being alive, through a rich mix of personal stories and spiritual reflections. Joan writes about her mother's final years and about being with friends and teachers at the end of their lives. She shares her own journey with aging, anal cancer, and other life challenges. She explores what it means to be alive in what may be the collapse of civilization and the possible extinction of life on earth due to climate change. Pointing beyond deficiency stories, future fantasies, and oppressive self-improvement projects, Joan invites an awakening to the immediacy of this moment and the wonder of ordinary life. She demonstrates a pathless path of genuine transformation, seeing all of life as sacred and worthy of devotion, and finding joy in the full range of our human experience.

Book Description

'What is the real hip hop?' 'To whom does hip hop belong?' 'For what constructive purposes can hip hop be put to use?' These are three key questions posed by hip hop activists in Hip Hop Versus Rap, which explores the politics of cultural authenticity, ownership, and uplift in London’s post-hip hop scene. The book is an ethnographic study of the identity, role, formation, and practices of the organic intellectuals that populate and propagate this ‘conscious’ hip hop milieu. Turner provides an insightful examination of the work of artists and practitioners who use hip hop ‘off-street’ in the spheres of youth work, education, and theatre to raise consciousness and to develop artistic and personal skills. Hip Hop Versus Rap seeks to portray how cultural activism, which styles itself grassroots and mature, is framed around a discursive opposition between what is authentic and ethical in hip hop culture and what is counterfeit and corrupt. Turner identifies that this play of difference, framed as an ethical schism, also presents hip hop’s organic intellectuals with a narrative that enables them to align their insurgent values with those of policy and to thereby receive institutional support. This enlightening volume will be of interest to post-graduates and scholars interested in hip hop studies; youth work; critical pedagogy; young people and crime/justice; the politics of race/racism; the politics of youth/education; urban governance; social movement studies; street culture studies; and vernacular studies.

Book Description

Beloved guru Ram Dass tells the story of his spiritual awakening and gives you the tools to take control of your life in this “counterculture bible” (The New York Times) featuring powerful guidance on yoga, meditation, and finding your true self. When Be Here Now was first published in 1971, it filled a deep spiritual emptiness, launched the ongoing mindfulness revolution, and established Ram Dass as perhaps the preeminent seeker of the twentieth century. Just ten years earlier, he was known as Professor Richard Alpert. He held appointments in four departments at Harvard University. He published books, drove a Mercedes and regularly vacationed in the Caribbean. By most societal standards, he had achieved great success. . . . And yet he couldn’t escape the feeling that something was missing. Psilocybin and LSD changed that. During a period of experimentation, Alpert peeled away each layer of his identity, disassociating from himself as a professor, a social cosmopolite, and lastly, as a physical being. Fear turned into exaltation upon the realization that at his truest, he was just his inner-self: a luminous being that he could trust indefinitely and love infinitely. And thus, a spiritual journey commenced. Alpert headed to India where his guru renamed him Baba Ram Dass—“servant of God.” He was introduced to mindful breathing exercises, hatha yoga, and Eastern philosophy. If he found himself reminiscing or planning, he was reminded to “Be Here Now.” He started upon the path of enlightenment, and has been journeying along it ever since. Be Here Now is a vehicle for sharing the true message, and a guide to self-determination.

Book Description

The Universe is on the brink of war and the fate of all organic life is linked to the Thirteen Masters who have not been seen or heard from in over 200 000 years. The ancient scriptures reveal that certain souls are critical keys to the path of light, balance, and spiritual awakening, but the galaxy as a whole has lost its way. Corruption, greed, violence, treachery, and abuse of power are rife. The immortal Elven Queen, the atheist human commander, the peaceful Setaran King, the rebellious female Karain warrior, the compassionate hybrid assassin and the lethal black dragon are all intrinsically linked with IIION - the mysterious soul that is out of time, out of place and out for vengeance in a tapestry of CHAOS which will either renew the Universe or destroy it.

Book Description

An inspiring and insightful guide to solving your problems or changing your life by using the creative powers you already have, the Power of Self. The key to unlocking your creative power is to know the self, including its origin and components. Achieving Self-mastery has been an enigmatic quest for humankind for eons. Yet, a few masters have solved the riddle and completed the path to enlightenment. The Power of Self outlines the secrets and principles that these masters have taught about the human mind. The author guides and inspires, making it easy to see how to unlock the infinite potential of your real Self. He also gives practical advice about how this time-honored wisdom can be applied to daily life. The spiritual masters offer a path of self-mastery, whereby we can gradually attain control over our reactions to the situations we encounter in the material world. Instead of going through life in an unaware way, we can purify the mind from all limitations until we can meet life with a higher form of awareness. The Path to Self-mastery is a process, whereby we gradually cleanse the mind from all of the limited ideas, beliefs, paradigms and assumptions that spring from the material world. We gradually throw out what colors our perception, and one day we will see the light entering the mind without having it colored at all. The real key to unlocking the power of self is not to find some kind of magical formula that forces the light. The key is to empty your mind of the elements in the human kaleidoscope that block the flow of light from your higher Self. This book gives you both the knowledge and the practical tools to master the Self.
