Book Synopsis The Secret of the Temple by : John Michael Greer
Download or read book The Secret of the Temple written by John Michael Greer and published by Llewellyn Worldwide. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over thousands of years, the priests and sages of the ancient world discovered that the design and location of certain structures had beneficial effects on the crops that sustained life. A body of traditional lore evolved, using architecture and ceremonies that made use of these wholly natural but mysterious effects. In The Secret of the Temple, John Michael Greer painstakingly rebuilds a body of lost knowledge that has been used to accumulate and direct energy throughout history, and can be used again today. The Temple of Solomon was only one of many ancient structures that drew on the temple tradition. The insights of this tradition have been passed down through those in society tasked with protecting ancient wisdom, secret societies like the Knights Templar and the Freemasons. But over time, as cultures and technologies changed, the meaning of these cryptic symbols and rituals became obscured...until now. This book explores the esoteric body of knowledge that shaped the world of our forebears, gave rise to the world's most awe-inspiring temples and cathedrals, and continues to fuel speculation about powerful forces at work in our world.
Book Synopsis The Way of the Four Elements by : John Michael Greer
Download or read book The Way of the Four Elements written by John Michael Greer and published by Aeon Books. This book was released on 2024-04-30 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A one year course for students of the occult to expand their horizons through the study of fire, air, water, and earth. Based on an ancient understanding of the cycles of nature, John Michael Greer invites students of occult to continue their training with the study of the four elements. The four elements are one of the foremost themes of Western occult tradition and have been used across history as a basic template for the process of initiation and seasonal ritual. The pattern of study assigns each element to one of the four seasons of the year (spring, summer, autumn, winter), based upon traditional associations. The lessons are intended to be worked through in sync with each season, and there is no fixed starting point so students can begin with any of the four elements by following whichever season begins next. Each chapter includes both the theory and practice of an elemental education such as symbols and teachings relating to the elements, suggestions for further reading, exercises for awakening the etheric senses, and astral clairvoyance. The Way of the Four Elements is the quintessential next step for students of the occult to continue developing and honing the skills essential for a magical education.
Book Synopsis Voicing the Ineffable by : Siglind Bruhn
Download or read book Voicing the Ineffable written by Siglind Bruhn and published by Pendragon Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between music and religion has long been a clearly delineated one. Up to the late Middle Ages, music employed for ritual expressions of faith in sacred contexts was contrasted with secular music, then mostly played in open spaces. The former was believed to aid in the communication of divine truths, while the latter was suspected of arousing sensuality and thus potentially leading away from the spiritual perspective of life. In subsequent centuries, music entered first the courtly salons, then the concert hall and the home. Such music, created for virtuoso performance or for the enjoyment in private chambers, occasionally made room for an expression of religious experiences outside the dedicated spaces of worship. This aspect is particularly intriguing in instrumental music, where allusions to extra-musical messages are at best hinted at in titles or explanatory notes, and in those cases of vocal music where it can be shown that the musical language adds significant nuances to the verbal text. On the basis of various case studies that transcend a music-analytical approach in the direction of the hermeneutic perspective, this volume explores in which ways the musical language in itself, independently of an explicitly sacred context, communicates the ineffable. The discussion focuses on the musical means and devices employed to this effect and on the question what the presence of religious messages in certain works of secular music tells us about the spirituality of an era.

Book excerpt: The Grail Rider is a spiritual memoir born from a life-altering Shamanic Journey inspired by the overlighting wisdom of the Christos Sophia. Throughout the ceremony, the blue fire of Divinity consumed all falsities of Self, infusing Inaiya with an all embracing love that suspended her in Grace. While she lay motionless on the forest floor, Inaiya communes with her Family of Light and is downloaded with a vivid, multi-dimensional transmission that illuminates the seeding of Universal Christ Consciousness, encoded to blossom within her and the hearts of all beings at this unprecedented epoch in time. Inaiya is shown how life on Earth would be brought back into balance through each being undergoing the inner alchemy of the Divine Marriage. Inaiya, along with humanity, was at a vital crossroads, where her destiny called her irresistibly forth to embark upon an initiatory journey and follow a chain of synchronicities that would unveil the true nature of the Beloved. You are invited to venture along with Inaiya through the mythic Grail lines of Glastonbury, the French Pyrenees, Mediterranean Coast, Italy and Greece as she traces and re-discovers the richly encoded wisdom and timeless transmissions of the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine as they rise, newly empowered to usher in an awakened New Earthunified in Oneness, sovereignty and resounding beauty. The Grail Rider is not only a holographic travel adventure woven with cosmic codes of light, it is an eternal love story and quest of the Soul, that magically unveils an alchemical treasure map that is altogether paradigm shifting. Steeped in humility, humour, and the transparent quandaries of a modern day Priestess, The Grail Rider is an offering of love, here to awaken and inspire all those who are called to return to the heart of the wild Divine.

Book Synopsis The Redeemer Reborn by : Paul Schofield
Download or read book The Redeemer Reborn written by Paul Schofield and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, Wagnerian scholarship has always treated the Ring and Parsifal as two separate works. The Redeemer Reborn: Parsifal as the Fifth Opera of Wagner's Ring shows how Parsifal is in fact actually the fifth opera of the Ring. Schofield explains in detail how these five musical dramas portray a single, unbroken story which begins at the start of Das Rheingold when Wotan breaks a branch from the World Ash-tree and Alberich steals the gold of the Rhine, thus separating Spear and Grail, and ends with the reunion of the Spear and Grail in the temple of Monsalvat at the end of Parsifal. Schofield explains how and why the four main characters of the Ring are reborn in the opera Parsifal, needing to complete in Parsifal the spiritual journey begun in the Ring. He also shows how the redemption that is not attained in the process of the Ring is finally realized in the events of Parsifal.

Book Synopsis Confederate Nation by : Michael Gray
Download or read book Confederate Nation written by Michael Gray and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-10 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buy this book! What, you expected sterling praise from famous writers? Sorry, I can't provide that because I am forced to publish Confederate Nation myself. Besides, I suspect that many of those testimonials are just favors from friends who may not have even read the book. And you never see a bad one, right? Let's face it, the so-called mainstream publishing industry has become constipated and reluctant to do much more than recycle the gorp of mediocre but established writers. It is mostly unwilling to take a chance and discover new and exciting writers. So, I am taking matters in my own hands and getting Confederate Nation in front of readers. Life is too short to wait for a break. I'm going to try and make it happen now. Is this a great book? Probably not. There are very few great books published any more. But is it entertaining? Yes. Does it tell an odd story? Certainly. And I have always thought it should be a movie, too. With proper padding and makeup, Kurt Russell could again be Elvis. A man is ultimately his own father because he keeps growing, if he's lucky, and as he grows he's the only person there every damn day to help get past the rough spots. We become our own fathers, and we should, and we must raise ourselves, even when a biological father has been there, but even more so when one has not. In the end we are solitary creatures. We're alone. The smart ones will make alliances and coalitions with others to make the trip sweeter and kinder, but it's a long and solitary trip and in the end the partners we make can't get us across the last barrier. That we have to do for ourselves. -Michael Loyd Gray
