Book excerpt: As David Ovason shows, eclipse have always marked turning points in history and in the lives of individuals: the foundation of Rome, the crucifixion, the saving of the live of Christopher Columbus, the foundation of Washington DC, the death of Diana, Princess of Wales and even the future fall from grace of President Clinton are among Ovason's many examples. Ovason also shows how stone circles were linked to eclipses and how these events have always been supposed by initiates to create shadow-tunnels into the spiritual world, allowing special possibilities of communication with the spiritual world.

Book Synopsis Sources of Evil by : Greta Van Buylaere
Download or read book Sources of Evil written by Greta Van Buylaere and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-05-29 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sources of Evil: Studies in Mesopotamian Exorcistic Lore is a collection of thirteen essays on the body of knowledge employed by ancient Near Eastern healing experts, most prominently the ‘exorcist’ and the ‘physician’, to help patients who were suffering from misfortunes caused by divine anger, transgressions of taboos, demons, witches, or other sources of evil. The volume provides new insights into the two most important catalogues of Mesopotamian therapeutic lore, the Exorcist’s Manual and the Aššur Medical Catalogue, and contains discussions of agents of evil and causes of illness, ways of repelling evil and treating patients, the interpretation of natural phenomena in the context of exorcistic lore, and a description of the symbolic cosmos with its divine and demonic inhabitants. "This volume in the series on Ancient Divination and Magic published by Brill is a welcome addition to the growing literature on ancient magic ..." -Ann Jeffers, Journal for the Study of the Old Testament 43.5 (2019) "Since the focus of the conference from which the essays derive was narrow, most of the essays hang together well and even complement each other. Several offer state-of-the-art treatments of topics and texts that make the volume especially useful. Readers will find much in this volume that contributes to our understanding of Mesopotamian exorcists, magic, medicine, and conceptions of evil." -Scott Noegel, University of Washington, Journal of the American Oriental Society 140.1 (2020)

Book Synopsis Guardians of the Eclipse by : AQEEL AHMED
Download or read book Guardians of the Eclipse written by AQEEL AHMED and published by AQEEL AHMED. This book was released on 2024-02-05 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world where sun eclipses make magic possible, a brave group called the Guardians of the Eclipse shows up. During celestial events, these amazing warriors gain powers that can't be matched. This lets them fight and beat the scary monsters and bad guys that threaten their world. Through their stories, we go on a trip with these brave heroes as they face challenges, fight evil forces, and protect the Earth from imminent danger. The Guardians each have their own special power that, when joined during the enchanted eclipse, makes them stronger and more united, unstoppable against evil. Our story isn't just about amazing battles and magical tricks; it's also about bravery, the unbreakable bonds of friendship, and how important it is to work together when you're up against a task. The Guardians—Leo, who can move faster than light, Maya, who is great at water, Ethan, who can block light, and Zoe, who can't be seen—represent the power that comes from working together. By going through hard times and achieving great things, they learn that real power comes from working together and being resolute in their fight against the forces that threaten their survival, not just from their individual strengths. Inspirational stories like "The Guardians" are great because they show how individualism can lead to the formation of the strongest alliances and how the strength of many people can make a force for good that can't be stopped. This story looks at the age-old ideas that friendship can get through hard times, that you should be strong in the face of evil, and that working together to reach a goal is important. The Guardians of the Eclipse's experiences show how heroic people can be and how important it is to work together to protect Earth's beauty and peace from threats in space, even though they are still keeping a close eye on the world. Under the alluring light of solar eclipses, their mythology, which is a big part of their magical world, continues to teach and inspire new generations about how important it is to be strong, work together, and never give up on justice. Chapter 1: The Eclipse for a Ceremony People in the beautiful country of Solaria are all looking forward to a certain day. They are excited and hopeful about it. Today is the Eclipse Ceremony, a day when magic fills the air and everyday things become special. Today isn't like any other. Think about how the sky, which is usually so blue and beautiful, gets darker over time, as if someone were slowly turning down a huge light switch, until a shadow of awe covers the sky instead of darkness. This isn't a normal solar eclipse; it's a magical, one-of-a-kind event that can only happen in Solaria, where the sun and moon are perfectly lined up to cast beautiful shadows and show hidden skills. There are kids coming to the Eclipse Temple today from all over Solaria, from busy market towns to quiet, peaceful forests. With its tall towers that seem to reach the sky, this temple is more than just a building; it stands for hope. For many, this is the most anticipated event of the year. It's also where the beauty of the eclipse meets the ground. The kids' faces show how excited they are; their eyes are big with hope, and their steps are quick with excitement. Both of them want to be chosen as Guardians of the Eclipse. During the sun eclipse, these Guardians were given special skills that make them not like other heroes. They could possibly control the deepest seas, run faster than the wind, or even merge with the light so that no one can see them. It's a moment of deep respect and duty because these skills were given to you to keep Solaria and its people safe, not for your own gain. As the eclipse starts, everyone in the temple stops talking. People look up to the sky as the moon slowly blocks the sun and gives everything a twilight glow. Every thought and feeling is filled with awe and wonder at this amazing sight. There is a strong feeling of magic in the air right now. It's like a faint hum whispering old secrets and hidden powers that are just ready to be found. The magic takes place when the eclipse is at its strongest. A beautiful, shimmering light comes from the building and wraps itself around each child like a warm hug. There is tension in the air because everyone is waiting to see who will be picked. They hold their breath and are hopeful. Some people will be Guardians of the Eclipse, but most people will want to be them. People who are chosen will not only learn special skills, but also go on a brave, friendly, and exciting journey to save Solaria and all of its treasures. The Eclipse Ceremony is more than just an event; it's a celebration of the world's magic, each child's growth potential, and the community's coming together to honor the special. Everyone in Solaria is reminded of the magic all around them, the beauty of their home country, and the strength and determination of its people on this day. These are the first steps on an amazing journey for those chosen to be Guardians. It will be full of challenges, wins, good times, and new friends. Solaria also feels safe because she knows that guards will always be there, ready to stand watch under the ethereal eclipse light and keep the region and its people safe for future generations. Chapter 2: The Book Defenders The Eclipse Ceremony took place in the magical land of Solaria. Four amazing kids were picked to be the new Guardians of the Eclipse. They were four kids named Leo, Maya, Ethan, and Zoe. They had special skills that made them stand out from other kids. People trying to catch a glimpse of Leo would see a blur because he could move faster than the human eye could see. Maya had the power to control water, which let her make streams and waves appear out of thin air and play with them as if they were natural parts of herself. Ethan can make light walls that can't be broken through, keeping himself and his friends safe.
Book Synopsis Before Nature by : Francesca Rochberg
Download or read book Before Nature written by Francesca Rochberg and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-08-07 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the modern West, we take for granted that what we call the “natural world” confronts us all and always has—but Before Nature explores that almost unimaginable time when there was no such conception of “nature”—no word, reference, or sense for it. Before the concept of nature formed over the long history of European philosophy and science, our ancestors in ancient Assyria and Babylonia developed an inquiry into the world in a way that is kindred to our modern science. With Before Nature, Francesca Rochberg explores that Assyro-Babylonian knowledge tradition and shows how it relates to the entire history of science. From a modern, Western perspective, a world not conceived somehow within the framework of physical nature is difficult—if not impossible—to imagine. Yet, as Rochberg lays out, ancient investigations of regularity and irregularity, norms and anomalies clearly established an axis of knowledge between the knower and an intelligible, ordered world. Rochberg is the first scholar to make a case for how exactly we can understand cuneiform knowledge, observation, prediction, and explanation in relation to science—without recourse to later ideas of nature. Systematically examining the whole of Mesopotamian science with a distinctive historical and methodological approach, Before Nature will open up surprising new pathways for studying the history of science.

Download or read book Radical Evil written by Joan Copjec and published by Verso. This book was released on 1996 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radical Evil, the second volume in the S series, marks the two-hundredth anniversary of the publication of Kant’s Religion without the Limits of Reason Alone, where Kant first proposed, and quickly withdrew in horror, the concept of radical evil—an evil at the very heart of the ethical problematic. It also marks the recent publication in English of Lacan’s Ethics of Psychoanalysis, arguably one of the most important and influential of Lacan’s seminars, in which he discusses the rise since the nineteenth century of a certain ‘happiness in evil’. The events of the twentieth century have made the assertions of both Lacan and Kant credible and concrete—the Holocaust and the attempts to cast doubt on its existence, the rise of racism worldwide, the engagement by philosophers with ethics as critical to relevant issues but without the consideration of the problems which lead Kant to his formation of radical evil. The contributors to this volume were asked to consider radical evil in its philosophical, political and cultural dimensions. What emerges is a clear introduction to the problematic, including discussions of the Holocaust, the placement of homosexuals in concentration camps, the creation of the Machiavellian in politics and literature—a full and fascinating exploration of the radical nature of modern evil.
Book Synopsis Babylonian Magic and Sorcery by : Leonard W. King
Download or read book Babylonian Magic and Sorcery written by Leonard W. King and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 2000-09-15 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic work is a treasury of esoteric writing concerning the prayers and rituals to ancient deities from the dawn of Western civilization. In this work first published in 1896, King presents the cuneiform text of a group of sixty clay tablets inscribed with prayers and religious compositions of a devotional and magical character. These tablets were created by the scribes of Ashurbanipal, King of Assyria, between 669–625 B.C., and are currently part of the Kuyunjik collection in the British Museum. King’s illustrations feature a transliteration of each tablet with an English translation of well-preserved passages. King includes a Babylonian-English glossary, a list of proper names and numerals with their corresponding cuneiform inscriptions, and a list of words and word portions of uncertain translation. “The texts and translations are accurately presented and definitive. King’s notes are concise, to the point, and easy to follow. But this is a highly technical book, designed for the professional, whether that professional be Assyriologist, paleographer, or magician. What, then, is its value to the non-professional reader? The answer is clear. Babylonian Magic and Sorcery offers us the means to gain an insight into the magico-religious concepts of the Semitic nations. And it is these concepts, and the magic based upon them, that underlie the worldview of the Western esoteric tradition, for that tradition is essentially Judaeo-Christian—it does not, save indirectly, derive from ancient Egypt.” —from the Foreword by R. A. Gilbert

Book Synopsis Ezekiel to Jesus by : Preston Kavanagh
Download or read book Ezekiel to Jesus written by Preston Kavanagh and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short book resolves the mystery of why Jesus chose to call himself Son of Man. Far earlier, the first Son of Man--the prophet Ezekiel--had met death as a Babylonian substitute king. Professor Simo Parpola's expert exposition about Assyrian substitutes prepares readers for the sacrifice first of Ezekiel and then, far later in time, of Jesus. Ezekiel was the Suffering Servant of Isaiah chapter 53, and had perished as a substitute to redeem the lives of his rebellious countrymen. Understanding Ezekiel's fate, Jesus chose the Son of Man title to exemplify his own redemptive mission. The authors of Mark, Luke, and Matthew subsequently framed their passion accounts so as to describe the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus as a latter-day substitute king. Most of this will come as news to students of both testaments of Scripture.
