  • Steiner lays out practical means of attaining metaphysical knowledge and mystical experience. There slumber in every human being faculties by means of which he can acquire for himself a knowledge of higher worlds. Mystics, Gnostics, Theosophists — all speak of a world of soul and spirit which for them is just as real as the world we see with our physical eyes and touch with our physical hands. At every moment the listener may say to himself: that, of which they speak, I too can learn, if I develop within myself certain powers which today still slumber within me. There remains only one question — how to set to work to develop such faculties.
  • Book V of The Ringing Cedars Of Russia. A description of the author's search for real-life 'proofs' of Anastasia's vision presented in the previous volumes. Finding these proofs and taking stock of ongoing global environmental destruction, Vladimir Megre describes further practical steps for putting Anastasia's vision into practice. Full of beautiful realistic images of a new way of living in co-operation with the Earth and each other, this book also highlights the role of children in making us aware of the precariousness of the present situation and in leading the global transition toward a happy, violence-free society. Cover art by Alexander Razboinikov.
  • In this extraordinary work, Henry Reed draws on American psychic Edgar Cayce's inspiring words and principles to show how that it is possible to reach the higher self, understand the nature of the super and subconscious minds, be open to information passed from one realm to the other and to heal the self via the conduit of the soul, revealing the great, untapped power of the spirit can transform lives in very meaningful ways. The work was edited by Charles Thomas Cayce, grandson of Edgar.

  • Dr. Dubos believes that if we continue to make choices for our future only in relation to negative issues such as pollution or overpopulation, our civilisation will become dreary and meaningless.  Instead, we could learn to cultivate the positive values that exist in Man's nature and in the external world. These positive values cannot be introduced from the outside.  All ancient civilisations have believed that every person or group of people,k every place or region is endowed with attributes and potentialities which confer a 'genius' or 'spirit' that give each its uniqueness. The 'god within' accounts for the unique creative expressions of every person, place and period. Human personalities, landscapes and civilisations are created through the interplay between man's nature and external nature. Modern science will not really be meaningful to the creative life of the individual until it learns to relate his innate genius to the spirit of the place in which he lives. First published in 1972, Dubos  foresaw the day we would have to live with the harmful by-products of technology and offered an optimistic philosophy which yet may rescue the world.
  • Cornelius Agrippa was  German polymath, physician, legal scholar, soldier, theologian and occult writer. His Three Books of Occult Philosophy published in 1533 drew heavily upon Kabbalah, Hermeticism and neo-Platonism. His book was widely influential among occultists of the early modern period, and was condemned as heretical by the inquisitor of Cologne. He was had somewhat of a reputation as a prophet. It is believed that he was involved in a secret occult group as a young man, but in later life he recanted his belief in magical and occult practices.  Given the seriousness of his beliefs it is unlikely that he would have penned the Oracle; and it is more likely that during the Victorian age period of interest in seances and able turning, an entrepreneur has based this Oracle on a form of divination descended from Agrippa. The method involves choosing a question from a list of 100, then randomly selecting a symbol and matching the symbol to a table which gives on which page the answer may be found.
  • Have you killed any strangers lately? Try it - it can be fun! All you have to do is make a friend; because every time you make a friend you kill a stranger. Each person whose story is in this book has learnt this exciting, valuable lesson.  Many people, able-bodied and disabled, find it hard to make friends.  The book issues the challenge to the claim that normal (?) people are responsible for the non-acceptance of disabled folk in the full life of the community.  The disabled can equally be at fault. "It's a bit like the generation gap - both sides must be willing to walk some of the way across the bridge of communication." Here are REAL people willing to share their hidden scars and their joyous victories.
  • The mystical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure. He meets a Gypsy woman, a man who calls himself king - and an alchemist. His quest will lead him to riches far different - and far more satisfying - than he ever imagined. Santiago's journey teaches us about the essential wisdom of listening to our hearts, recognizing opportunity and learning to read the omens strewn along life's path, and, most importantly, following our dreams. Illustrated by James Noel Smith.
  • The dearth of suitable introductory texts presents a serious obstacle to the study of the Egyptian language, so this practical grammar answers a longstanding need. Its well-known and highly respected author, a Keeper of the Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities at the British Museum, has written many other popular Dover books on Egyptology. Contents include lists of frequently used signs and determinatives, a short vocabulary of about 500 words, a series of 31 texts and extracts (with interlinear transliteration and word-for-word translation), and a few untransliterated and untranslated texts (with glossary), to be worked out independently. This is a valuable book for archaeologists, anthropologists, and anyone with a professional or amateur interest in Ancient Egypt.
