The Camino: Shirley MacLaine
$12.00This is the story of a journey. It is the eagerly anticipated and altogether startling culmination of Shirley MacLaine's extraordinary -- and ultimately rewarding -- road through life. The riveting odyssey began with a pair of anonymous handwritten letters imploring Shirley to make a difficult pilgrimage along the Santiago de Compostela Camino in Spain. Throughout history, countless illustrious pilgrims from all over Europe have taken up the trail. It is an ancient -- and allegedly enchanted -- pilgrimage. People from St. Francis of Assisi and Charlemagne to Ferdinand and Isabella to Dante and Chaucer have taken the journey, which comprises a nearly 500-mile trek across highways, mountains and valleys, cities and towns, and fields. Now it would be Shirley's turn. For Shirley, the Camino was both an intense spiritual and physical challenge. A woman in her sixth decade completing such a grueling trip on foot in thirty days at twenty miles per day was nothing short of remarkable. But even more astounding was the route she took back thousands of years, through past lives to the very origin of the universe. Through a range of astonishing and liberating visions and revelations, Shirley saw into the meaning of the cosmos, including the secrets of the ancient civilizations of Atlantis and Lemuria, insights into human genesis, the essence of gender and sexuality, and the true path to higher love. -
Battered on one side by the Church’s leadership response to scandal, and with platitudes and doctrinaire responses to questions of faith on the other, Catholics feel adrift, ignored and undervalued. Why does Collins remain a Catholic? In answering this question for himself, he offers a thought-provoking and encouraging examination of what makes a Catholic, the nature of Catholicism and how Catholics perceive themselves in the modern world. Drawing on great religious thinkers, he considers the nature of mature spirituality and how it can be achieved in the church today. He also makes a plea for recognition of the natural world and why developing an ecological theology is important to become physical and spiritual being. He discusses the relevance of conscience and how essential it is for the individual and community to understand and respond to it. -
Marjorie Florence Deasey and her husband Dudley Rawson Deasey were missionaries with the Unevangelised Fields Mission/Asia Pacific Christian Mission. They lived and worked with the Gogodala people at Balimo, Papua New Guinea for over forty years. Marjorie's work included translating and teaching. When Marjorie and Dudley married in 1935, she had no idea of the enormous challenges ahead. With a limited education, she had to learn another language; deal with medical cases on her doorstep; cope with an enrollment of 600 students at her school; evacuate during the ear; survive cyclones and entertain troops. After Dudley died in 1993 – did she quietly retire? No, she decided to learn how to drive, at the age of 82. A fascinating life. Illustrated with black and white photographs.

The definitive work on the Western Mystery Tradition - both setting forth the way mainstream Western occultism has developed and providing a completely modern and psychologically valid restatement of the Magickal Art. The aspiration towards perfection is essential to all who follow the path of Magick. Here is no place for scruples about spiritual narcissism or pride, or anything of that sort. To reject this aspiration would be to will a disharmony in the universal fabric, and would be at least as great as a catastrophe as the defects which it might seem to avoid. It is this aspiration, and this reverent sense of purpose which are the most sure marks of the true student of the Qabalah. -
This volume offers essential and profound magical knowledge, authentic texts and formulae of the Western Mystery Tradition, hitherto hidden in inaccessible libraries, in enigmatic writings or rarely-imparted teachings passed on only by word of mouth and in addition, contains sections demonstrating how to use all knowledge disclosed, how to consecrate magical tools, how to build rites on the physical and astral planes with word and action, sound, colour and visualisation to implement magical will. -
This highly regarded text is a cornerstone among ceremonial magicians and occultists worldwide. The Sword and The Serpent expounds upon the principles of ceremonial magic and its relationship to the teachings of Qabalah. This volume, the second volume of The Magical Philosophy Series, presents the external Qabalistic universe and the internal Qabalistic universe; together, the two-fold universe - that which surrounds us, and the universe of the psyche within. It is the ultimate integration of the outer world and inner world that is the Great Work and purpose of High Magic. The essential structures of outer and inner worlds are here conceived of in parallel terms, seen through one common comprehensive framework, and their integration is thus revealed as comprehensible and progressive gnosis. For the magician, this is the key to learning to use the psyche, or inner world, to control and direct the forces of the outer worlds of being. Thus, and only thus, do we fulfill our destiny and become masters of our fate. -
Initiation Into Hermetics provides step by step instruction in the form of practical exercises. These exercises lead to the development of body, soul and spirit. The result of the practical exercises is the development of occult abilities which can be of benefit to the student, in as far as he can change his existence for the better. The great mystery of the Tetragrammaton, the key to the tetrapolar magnet, is explained. By reading the theoretical section many secrets are unveiled which were once only known to very few. The reader will receive first-hand knowledge about the principles of fire, air, water and earth, the positive and negative attributes of these elements, and how these elements affect the human body. The immutable law of cause and effect is explained, not only as it applies to human beings, but also how it applies to the elements. Detailed information is also given about the soul or the astral body, and how the four elements determine the temperament in a person. The astral plane is considered to be "the beyond" by most religions. This plane does have its inhabitants, most of which are departed human beings from earth. Besides that you find elementals, beings with one or only a few attributes. It is very advantageous to learn about these beings and how they affect a human being's life. There is also another kind of being, which is a being of the pure elements. The reader will find that many myths or even fairy tales are based on truth. But mankind has lost the ability to stay in contact with reality and has chosen to live in a completely transitory world which they consider to be their reality. The third plane, the mental plane, is also explained; it is the sphere of thought which has its origin in the world of ideas. Each step of the practical part of this book is divided into three the magical spiritual or mental schooling, soul or astral schooling, and physical schooling. This allows the student to maintain a complete equilibrium. The student learns how to control all his mental faculties even to the point that he can control every thought. He will learn self-introspection, clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience, astral and mental travel, control of the electric and magnetic fluids, and communication with the beings of the astral plane.
