The Pyramid Texts were funerary inscriptions that were written on the walls of the early Ancient Egyptian pyramids at Sakkara. These date back to the fifth and sixth dynasties, approximately the years 2350-2175 B.C.E. However, because of extensive internal evidence, it is believed that they were composed much earlier, circa 3000 B.C.E. The Pyramid Texts are, therefore, essentially the oldest sacred texts known. Samuel Mercer was the first to produce a complete English translation. This is Volume 1 of a 4 Volume set. This particular volume, apart from the Preface and Introduction, contains the actual verses of the Pyramid texts. Volumes 2-4 contained all the commentary by Mercer and others, and are very hard to come by, so I don't think they will be going up on the site anytime soon.

Death is a process which is one with that of life. Death is the joyous activity of Spirit ever and ever entering into life. There is only continuity. There is no death. As a doctor and spiritual teacher, Adriana Balthazar MD; PhD has seen too many people afraid of death. Treating death and mourning as a taboo subjects hurts both the dying and their loved ones. In The Western Book of Death, Balthazar seeks to illuminate the misunderstandings that have poisoned us. With open communication and a new perspective, we will become prepared, both for our own death and those around us. Instead of seeing death as an end we will truly see it for what it is – only one part of a long and continuing journey. Both spiritually rich and comfortingly practical, The Western Book of Death serves as a valuable guidebook for every stage of life.

Christopher Hitchens, described in the London Observer as “one of the most prolific, as well as brilliant, journalists of our time” takes on his biggest subject yet–the increasingly dangerous role of religion in the world. In the tradition of Bertrand Russell’s Why I Am Not a Christian and Sam Harris’s recent bestseller, The End Of Faith, Christopher Hitchens makes the ultimate case against religion. With a close and erudite reading of the major religious texts, he documents the ways in which religion is a man-made wish, a cause of dangerous sexual repression, and a distortion of our origins in the cosmos. With eloquent clarity, Hitchens frames the argument for a more secular life based on science and reason, in which hell is replaced by the Hubble Telescope’s awesome view of the universe, and Moses and the burning bush give way to the beauty and symmetry of the double helix.
