Hampton Roads Publishing, 2024. Trade Paperback. A new copy. "Secrets of Greek Mysticism is a rare gem that marries scholarly wisdom with practical spirituality. George's insightful approach unveils the gods' profound essence, offering readers a transformative road map to inner growth and connection. This book is an invitation to weave the divine into our daily lives." --Sophie Bashford, intuitive and bestselling author of You Are a Goddess A clear introduction to the spirituality, beliefs, rituals, and gods and goddesses of the Greek pantheon from a modern practitioner. Secrets of Greek Mysticism is the first spiritual book about the Greek gods and goddesses written by a native, practicing priest of Hellenic Polytheism. It goes beyond the simplistic and archetypical representation of the Greek pantheon and instead introduces the gods and goddesses from a theological perspective. Secrets of Greek Mysticism teaches readers how to find each god or goddess within them. This is achieved through grounded insights on the gods' virtues as they relate to modern life (i.e., practicing bravery with Ares, cultivating endurance with Demeter, and embodying love with Aphrodite), explaining the deeper spiritual meaning of popular myths, practicing guided meditations, activating the gods' energies with mantras and hymns, and performing simple rituals. In helping readers build a spiritual connection with the gods and goddesses, Secrets of Greek Mysticism reveals the beginnings of the practice as well as practices for everyday life: The twelve gods' birth stories, essences, and virtues The foundation of ancient Greek spirituality, cosmology, and theology How to live and work with the gods on a daily basis Setting up altars Symbols, hymns, and meditations to guide readers' practice of connecting with the gods Secrets of Greek Mysticism also makes the claim that for the Divine Feminine to rise, the Divine Masculine needs to rise, too. Rather than solely focusing on female goddesses, it brings together the male and female deities of the Greek pantheon to help readers experience divine union., Hampton Roads Publishing, 2024, 0, Hay House Inc, 2019. Trade Paperback. A new copy. A WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER by DR. JOE DISPENZA, the author of the New York Times bestseller You Are the Placebo, as well as Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself and Evolve Your Brain. Becoming Supernatural draws on epigenetics, quantum physics & neuroscience research conducted at his advanced workshops since 2012 to explore how common people are doing the uncommon to transform their consciousness, mindset, and beliefs to heal and live SUPERNATURAL lives. "From a gifted scientist and passionate teacher, this unique and practical guide shows us--step by step--how to move beyond the limits of the known and into an extraordinary new life." -- Tony Robbins, #1 New York Times best-selling author of Unshakeable Becoming Supernatural marries some of the most profound scientific information with ancient spiritual wisdom to show how people like you and me can experience a more mystical life. Readers will learn that we are, quite literally supernatural by nature if given the proper knowledge and instruction, and when we learn how to apply that information through various healing meditations, we should experience a greater expression of our creative abilities. We have the capacity to tune in to frequencies beyond our material world and receive more orderly coherent streams of consciousness and energy; that we can intentionally change our brain chemistry to initiate profoundly mystical transcendental experiences; and how, if we do this enough times, we can develop the skill of creating a more efficient, balanced, healthy body, a more unlimited mind, and greater access to the quantum field and the realms of spiritual truth. Topics include: - Demystifying the body's 7 energy centers and how you can balance them to heal - How to free yourself from the past by reconditioning your body to a new mind - How you can create reality in the generous present moment by changing your energy - The difference between third-dimension creation and fifth-dimension creation - The secret science of the pineal gland and its role in accessing mystical realms of reality - The distinction between Space-Time vs. Time-Space realities - And much more Chapters include: - Opening the Door to the Supernatural - The Present Moment - Tuning In to New Potentials in the Quantum - Blessing of the Energy Centers - Reconditioning the Body to a New Mind - Case Studies: Living Examples of Truth - Heart Intelligence - Mind Movies/Kaleidoscope - Walking Meditation - Case Studies: Making It Real - Space-Time and Time-Space - The Pineal Gland - Project Coherence: Making a Better World - Case Studies: It Could Happen to You Using tools and disciplines ranging from cutting-edge physics to practical exercises such as a walking meditation, Dr. Joe offers nothing less than a proven program for stepping outside our physical reality and into the quantum field of infinite possibilities. "Dr. Joe Dispenza is a doctor, a scientist, and a modern-day mystic. . . . In a style that is simple, straightforward, and easy to understand, [he] has woven into a single volume the paradigm-altering discoveries of quantum science and the deep teachings that adepts of the past dedicated their entire lifetimes to master." -- from the foreword by Gregg Braden, New York Times best-selling author of Human by Design and The Divine Matrix "I wrote this book to take what I've always thought was possible to the next level of understanding. I wanted to demonstrate to the world that we can create better lives for ourselves--and that we are not linear beings living linear lives, but dimensional beings living dimensional lives. Hopefully, reading it will help you understand that you already have all the anatomy, chemistry, and physiology you need to become supernatural sitting latent within you, waiting to be awakened and activated." - Dr. Joe Dispenza New York Times best-selling author Researcher of epigenetics, quantum physics & neuroscience, Hay House Inc, 2019, 0, New York: An Image Book Published by Doubleday a division of Bantam Doubleday Dell Publishing Group, Inc., 1998.

SYNOPSIS: Until this century, little was known about the English mystic Margery Kempe (ca. 1373-ca.1440) except that she had an association with the great Julian of Norwich. This all changed in 1934 with the discovery of The Book of Margery Kempe in a library where it had lain hidden for four hundred years. Finding Margery Kempe's own story was important not just because it shed light on her life, but also because it turned out to be the first known autobiography in the English language. Even more surprising to the experts of the day, this unique document was written by a woman. If anyone had expected to find Margery Kempe to be anything like her cloistered counterpart, Julian of Norwich, they were in for something of a surprise. Far from being a typical holy woman, she was married and the mother of fourteen children. Moreover she had been a woman of substance, even running a large brewery for a time. After turning to God, she traveled thousands of miles on a pilgrimage to all parts of the known world. Beyond the circumstances of her life, the text offers surprising revelations of the inner woman. Her account of spiritual awakening, far from being a blissful episode, is full of conflict and recrimination. What good was this new way of life if it caused her such trouble? Was this really the only way to lead a holy life? Margery Kempe remained unsure of the answers. But her patience in her struggle is a wonder to behold and an example to us today. John Skinner began his career as a Jesuit. Leaving before ordination, he then became a journalist with The Times of London before setting up his own children's bookselling company. He now writes full-time, specializing in the English mystics and in translating the spiritual classics across the centuries. His works include Julian of Norwich's Revelation of Love and The Confession of Saint Patrick, both of which have recently been published by Image Books. He lives with his wife, Judith, in Devon, England, where he is at work on a forthcoming collection of monastic writings.. First Thus 1st Printing. Trade Paperback.

New York: Dover Publications, Inc., 1979. Volume One . Trade Paperback. Very Good. 6 1/2" X 9 1/4. Doughty, Charles Montagu - Numerous Sketches. 674 Pages. Comprehensive 117 Page Index and Glossary is in Volume Two. This is VOLUME ONE ONLY. Light wear to covers. Back cover has price blacked out. No other marks or stamps and interior text pages are white and tight. This Dover edition, first published in 1979, is an unabridged and unaltered republication of the definitive version of the third edition published in London in 1936 by Jonathan Cape Ltd. The work was originally published in 1888 by Cambridge University Press. The second edition was published in London by P. Lee Warner in January, 1921, and the third edition was first issued by the same publisher in October 1921. Colonel T. E. Lawrence derived much of the original inspiration for his Arabian adventures from Charles M. Doughty's Travels in Arabia Deserta. Of this book, little known to the public but long famous among Arabists, travelers, geographers, and connoisseurs of English prose, Lawrence wrote, "I have studied it for ten years, and have grown to consider it a book not like other books, but something particular, a bible of its kind . The book has no date and can never grow old. It is the first and indispensable work upon the Arabs of the desert." By training geologist, by inclination itinerant scholar, Doughty first heard of strange Arabian inscriptions while drifting about Syria. To see and record them, and to chart the unknown land formations, he joined the pilgrimage caravan to Mecca, leaving it to live with the fanatical Hejaz and Nejd nomads, at all times subject to abuse, threats, and indignities for refusing to deny his Christianity. His descriptions of Beduin grandeur and pettiness, his accounts of daily famine level existence and endurance of desert and Mohammedan extremes, rank the book with the greatest travel ethnographic journals and geographic commentaries. Yet it is his style which marks the book unique: Doughty believed the English language had fallen from grace since Spenser; he set out to restore its beauty through sonorous rhythm and a vocabulary and syntax recalling the Tyndale Bible. The result is a memorable fitting of style to subject, for it often seemed to Doughty those two years that he was back among the Patriarchs of Judah and Ishmael. The uncut Dover edition in two volumes brings Arabia Deserta back, after many years' regrettable absence, to rejoin the few travel masterpieces of the language. The Aramaic inscriptions Doughty recorded are translated by Ernest Renan; a note on architecture, a note on geology, numerous sketches by Doughty, and an index (See Volume Two) with glossary of Arabic words complete this most unusual essay, this book which has been, like Arabia itself, much talked of, but rarely seen.
