Enigmatic, misunderstood, declared a charlatan and recently dubbed “the Rasputin who inspired Mary Poppins,” Gurdjieff's life has become a legend. But who really was George Ivanovich Gurdjieff?Employing the latest research and discoveries, including previo

Breathing As Spiritual Practice

Surprised by the number of attendees from Western spiritual traditions at his Buddhist retreats, Will Johnson wanted to understand what drew them to this type of spiritual experience. He found many devoted Christians were in search of a more direct experience of God beyond faith alone, so he began exploring what breathing practices could be found in the sacred texts of Western monotheistic religio

Psychedelic medicine - the healing powers of lsd, mdma, psilocybin, and aya

Embracing the revival of psychedelic research and the discovery of new therapeutic uses, clinical psychologist, Dr. Richard Louis Miller, discusses what is happening today in psychedelic medicine - and what will happen in the future - with top researchers and thinkers in this field, including Rick Doblin, Stanislav Grof, James Fadiman, Julie Holland, Dennis McKenna, David Nichols, Charles Grob, Ph

Liver detox - cleansing through diet, herbs, and massage

The liver is key to the optimal health of the body. Shouldering the heaviest responsibility for keeping the body's internal terrain clean, the liver not only filters toxins and cellular by-products out of the blood like other excretory organs, it, also, neutralises poisons, microbes, heavy metals and carcinogens. By supporting the liver, we support the health of the entire body. In this practical

Sacred Geometry For Artists, Dreamers, And Philosophers

We are in the midst of a revival of an ancient way of looking at the world - an approach that enabled great civilisations of the past to bring forth inventions of great beauty and power. This school of thought envisioned the natural world and the solar system as an interlocking matrix of harmonious numbers. Exploring the art and science of harmonics, John Oscar Lieben shows how to create harmoniou

Occulture - the unseen forces that drive culture forward

Art, magic and the occult have been intimately linked since our prehistoric ancestors created the first cave paintings some 50,000 years ago. As civilisations developed, these esoteric forces continued to drive culture forward, both visibly and behind the scenes, from the Hermetic ideas of the Renaissance, to the ethereal worlds of 19th-century Symbolism, to the occult interests of the Surrealists

Return Of Planet Sedna

Named after a mythological Inuit sea woman, the planet Sedna was first discovered in 2003. Its return to our solar system after 11,000 years of orbit has been tied to the huge tsunami that struck Indonesia, Thailand and India in 2004 as well as to the increased occurrence of other marine and weather events over the last decade. And just as it is affecting the waters of our planet, Sedna's energies

Spiritual Meaning Of The Sixties

No decade in modern history has generated more controversy and divisiveness than the tumultuous 1960s. For some, the '60s were an era of free love, drugs and social revolution. For others, the Sixties were an ungodly rejection of all that was good and holy. Embarking on a profound search for the spiritual meaning behind the massive social upheavals of the 1960s, Tobias Churton turns a kaleidoscopi

Idden History Of Elves And Dwarfs

Most people are familiar with the popular image of elves as Santa's helpers and dwarfs as little bearded men wearing red caps, who are mischievous and playful, helpful and sly, industrious and dexterous. But their roots go far deeper than their appearance in fairy tales and popular stories. Elves and dwarfs are survivors of a much older belief system that predates Christianity and was widespread t

Mirror of the marvelous - the surrealist reimagining of myth

First published in French as Miroir du merveilleux in 1940, Mirror of the Marvelous has long been considered one of the most significant and original books to have come out of the surrealist movement and Anaïs Nin suggested it as a source of inspiration, far ahead of its time. Drawing on sacred and modern texts that share a quality of the marvellous, Pierre Mabille defines “the marvellous” as the

Natural Antibiotics And Antivirals

Nature offers us many natural antibiotics from the plant kingdom that work powerfully against germs while, also, being gentle on the body. Knowledge of these safe and natural antibiotics and antivirals is more crucial now than ever as modern antibiotics become less and less effective due to the growing threat of antibiotic-resistant germs. Natural antibiotics even offer an opportunity to reverse a

Jung, Buddhism, And The Incarnation Of Sophia

Henry Corbin (1903-1978) was one of the most important French philosophers and orientalists of the 20th century. In this collection of previously unpublished writings, Corbin examines the work of Carl Jung in relationship to the deep spiritual traditions of Eastern religion, the esoteric wisdom teachings of Sophia, the transformational symbolism of alchemy and Sufi mysticism. Looking at the many m

Chi nei tsang and microcurrent therapy - energy massage for pain relief, se

Each cell of the body is animated by a highly organised and intelligent bioenergy or bioelectricity. When cells are damaged, they become electrically imbalanced. Recently it has been discovered that microcurrent therapy - applying low-amperage electrical currents to the body - harmonises the cells, returns them to a normal state of cellular activity and boosts the body's natural self-healing abili

Holistic Reflexology

Expanding the practice of reflexology beyond the feet and hands, Ewald Kliegel illustrates how to precisely and quickly treat different emotional and physical disorders with an integrated combination of reflexology and complementary therapies. Applying the fundamental principles of reflexology to the entire body, he provides more than 30 full-colour maps of reflex zones from head to toe, including

Essential Oils For Mindfulness And Meditation

For millennia, the spiritual power of odour - such as from incense or frankincense - has been used to symbolise intention, stimulate awareness of our spiritual self and accentuate rite and ritual. Drawing on this power, as well as their healing qualities, essential oils can provide the perfect complement to a meditation or mindfulness practice. Outlining the practice and benefits of meditation and

Miracle Club : How Thoughts Become Reality

Following in the footsteps of a little-known group of esoteric seekers from the late-nineteenth century who called themselves “the Miracle Club,” Mitch Horowitz shows that the spiritual “wish fulfilment” practices known as the Law of Attraction, Positive Thinking, “the Secret” and the Science of Getting Rich, actually work. Weaving these ideas together into a concise, clear formula, with actual ex

Future Sacred : The Connected Creativity of Nature

In FUTURE SACRED, Julie J. Morley offers a new perspective on the human connection to the cosmos by unveiling the connected creativity and sacred intelligence of nature. She rejects the “survival of the fittest” narrative - the idea that survival requires strife - and offers symbiosis and cooperation as nature's path forward. She shows how an increasingly complex world demands increasingly complex

Real Witches Of New England

New England has long been associated with witches. And while the Salem witch trials happened long ago, the prejudices and fears engendered by the witchcraft hysteria still live on in our culture. What forces were at work that brought the witch hysteria quickly from Europe to the new American colony, a place of religious freedom - and what caused these prejudices to linger centuries after the fact?

Nightside Of The Runes

Uncovering the dark side of the Nordic rune stones hidden beneath their traditional interpretation, Swedish scholar and runologist, Thomas Karlsson, examines the rune work of Swedish mystic and runologist, Johannes Bureus, (1568-1652) and professor Sigurd Agrell (1881-1937), both of whom devoted their lives to uncovering the secret uses of rune stones concealed from all but the highest initiates.
