Book excerpt: Alphonse Louis Constant (1810-75), A.K.A. Éliphas Lévi, a seminary dropout, mixed in socialist circles and wrote several radical political books that led to prison sentences. In the 1850s he devoted his time to the study and promulgation of occult doctrine: especially magic and Kabbalah. His writings were seminal for occultists including Papus, A. E. Waite, and Aleister Crowley.In 'The Book of Sages', one of Lévi's last writings, he formulates his beliefs clearly and accessibly. His literary range is on display as he portrays himself in a series of short, rich fictional dialogues with representatives of "the whole religious and philosophical polemic of the present age": a reactionary Catholic apologist, a priest, a philosopher, a pantheist, a Jew, a Protestant, a doctor, a scientist, a spiritualist, and finally an esotericist like himself. He highlights his differences and agreements, often surprising, with each of these worldviews. In the second half of the book Lévi formulates his doctrine in a series of short topical chapters with enumerated aphorisms. These touch on religion, morality, nature, (animal) magnetism, death, Satan, occultism, faith, science, and other subjects.His stated purpose being to "reconcile science and dogma, authority and freedom, reason and faith", Lévi's writings are a response to Enlightenment modernity, to the clash of science and faith. He doesn't want to go back to medieval simplicity, but to progress forward: his writings anticipate a global, universal, rational, and hierarchical religion that will repair the spiritual emptiness of modern scientific humanity.This is the first English translation of this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Showcases 150 of the most beautiful, gardenworthy species. Salvia is derived from the Latin word salvare, "to heal," and for centuries salvias have been valued for their medicinal and culinary qualities. Salvias, commonly known as sages, grow throughout the world. They occur in many forms: perennial, biennial, annual herbs, and evergreen or deciduous shrubs. These amazingly varied plants are also noteworthy for their remarkable resistance to pests and diseases, their drought tolerance-- and their beautiful flowers. In The New Book of Salvias: Sages for Every Garden, Betsy Clebsh highlights 150 beautiful, gardenworthy species and significant hybrids. She documents them alphabetically and includes botanical descriptions, information on habit, blooming cycle, recommended companion plants, and delightful historical tidbits of discovery and usage. In her ardent pursuit of salvias, Clebsch has explored the wild to collect plants and seeds to test in her garden. The resulting wealth of cultural information in The New Book of Salvias ensures that our gardens will not only be exquisitely aromatic but also wonderfully picturesque.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Superior studies on salient themes and texts of Proverbs now join similar anthologies on Job and Ecclesiastes that have been compiled by Roy B. Zuck. 'Learning from the Sages' assembles thirty-two essays by twenty-seven scholars, covering genre, themes, and expositions of selected passages. Some include technical details of Hebrew, but in-depth linguistic knowledge is not necessary. Part 1 looks at the structure, context, and message of Proverbs, and offers suggestions on understanding its content, terms used, and metaphors for wisdom, wealth, and poverty. Essays on individual texts are arranged in canonical order in Part 2. Commentators discuss such memorable sections as the advice to young men in Chapter 3, the seductress of Chapter 5, and the comparisons of the fool and the wise. Contributors include Kathleen Farmer, R.N. Whybray, William Mouser, Jr., Bruce Waltke, William McKane, Roland Murphy, Duane Garrett, Sid Buzzell, Allen Ross, and David Hubbard.

Book excerpt: In this epic fantasy adventure debut, a young mage unknowingly becomes a pawn in a dangerous plot to obtain forbidden magic. Primidia is a land steeped in ancient history and filled with exotic races. Within these lands is a powerful force known as the Aether . . . Wizards, spellblades, and other adepts spend their days studying the Aether at the Arcane Academy, also known as the Azure Towers. The Overmage Delsimar Pheric is the leader of the academy. His secret machinations use the school’s resources to help him search for a lost reliquary of forbidden magics known as the Vault of Sages. Delsimar will stop at nothing to attain such ultimate power. In this school of higher arcane learning, the student Jhona Kroenen stands out as an intellectual savant. Unwittingly set on a path by Delsimar to find the Vault, he is soon surrounded by secrets and plots made by many powerful—and sometimes unseen—enemies. Will his power be enough to stop the Vault from being opened and save them from the darkness-before it devours them all?

Book excerpt: Throughout the violent financial disruptions of the past several years, three men have stood out as beacons of judgment and wisdom: Warren Buffett, George Soros, and Paul Volcker. Though their experiences and styles vary—Buffett is the canny stock market investor; Soros is the reader of shifting global tides in trade and currencies; and Volcker is the regulator and governor, sheriff and clean-up crew—they have very much in common. All three men have more than fifty years of deep involvement in markets. All are skeptical of Wall Street frenzies. They believe that markets tend to be right, but usually only over the medium term. They have seen too many cycles of herd-driven, emotion-riding booms and busts to make their views hostage to the sweeping and simplistic assumptions of “efficient-markets” models. With the benefit of his own deep understanding of markets and finance, Morris brilliantly analyzes the records of these men, distilling their wisdom and experience—and argues for the importance of consistent values in navigating the treacherous terrain of today's globalized world.

Book excerpt: In a world where everyone has power, Nikodemus Kowalczyk was always destined to be an underdog. Niko has long since given up on his dreams of being a world class Battle Artist. Thanks to his damaged core and crazy family, he never stood a chance anyway. With money, fame, and untold power on the line, the corporations decide who wins. End of story. But when a mysterious group, calling themselves the Sages of the Underpass, threaten to upend the entire system with their unorthodox training and cultivation methods, Nikko soon learns that what was once a handicap might be his greatest asset. The only thing standing in his way is a bitter, hard-hearted veteran, who would like nothing more than to see Niko stay in his place. Right at the bottom. Rocky meets Dragon Ball Z in this underdog redemption story from Dragon Award Finalist Aaron Michael Ritchey. Sages of the Underpass is an epic blend of Urban Fantasy, Cultivation, and Magical MMA that captures the passion, the power, and the perseverance it takes to follow your dreams--no matter what kind of artist you are. "Sages of the Underpass is an excellent novel with a fully fleshed-out system for character development. This is a great modern cultivation story!" --Dakota Krout, Author of the Divine Dungeon and the Completionist Chronicles

This book was released on 2023-03-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The people of ancient times were inclined to give their attention not only to the external world of inert matter, but also to the world within, the vital world of consciousness. Those sages who understood the importance of such contemplation comprise the prime subject matter of this book. Especially in the troubled world of today, it is by the conscientious study of their activities and teachings that we may come to understand the Absolute Truth, or the Ultimate Reality, and attain lasting peace and joy. The pastimes of such great, sagely personalities have been narrated in detail in an ancient collection of works known as the Puranas, as well as in timeless epics such as the Mahabharata, Ramayana, and other Vedic literatures. In this book, Srila Bhakti Ballabha Tirtha Goswami Maharaja, a bona fide self-realized representative of the bhakti (devotional) lineage, has narrated important episodes and addressed salient points from these literatures. Thus, the avid reader may understand their inner meaning and apply this knowledge to their search for real happiness. Ultimately, such unadulterated, permanent happiness, according to the devotional tradition, is realized as the attainment of pure love of God, Sri Krishna.
