Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Spiritual communication with mankind the only thing of importance is that the message get through in tact, without being altered by belief, attitude or even intellectual certainty. Spiritual living, and the kind of vision that comes with it, is often opposed to that which the mind believes is logical. This dictionary gives the meanings of images and ideas when they come from a purely Spiritual source. Definitions in this dictionary are based on the Essential Function of the person, place or thing relative to those other persons, places and things that surround and come into contact with the original. With this work, it is possible to find out what dreams mean, should they be communication from spirit. But that is not its primary intention, for this Dictionary has the main purpose of assisting students of Mystic Traditions, primarily Ankahr Muse apprentices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work in comparative philosophy uses the concept of Titanism to critique certain trends in both Eastern and Western philosophy. Titanism is an extreme form of humanism in which human beings take on divine attributes and prerogatives. The author finds the most explicit forms of spiritual Titanism in the Jaina, Samkhya, and Yoga traditions, where yogis claim powers and knowledge that in the West are only attributed to God. These philosophies are also radically dualistic, and liberation involves a complete transcendence of the body, society, and nature. Five types of spiritual Titanism are identified; and, in addition to this typology, a heuristic based on Nietzsche's three metamorphoses of camel, lion, and child is offered. The book determines that answers to spiritual Titanism begin not only with the Hindu Goddess religion, but also are found in Buddhism, Confucianism, and Daoism, especially Zen Buddhism and Confucianism.
