Magic, Mystery, and Science
Author: Dan Burton
Publisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 9780253216564
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 414
Book Description
"[P.D. Ouspensky's] yearning for a transcendent, timeless reality—one that cancels out physical disintegration and death—figures into science at some fundamental level. Einstein found solace in his theory of relativity, which suggested to him that events are ever-present in the space-time continuum. When his friend Michele Besso passed on shortly before his own death, he wrote: 'For us believing physicists the distinction between past, present, and future is only an illusion, even if a stubborn one.'" —from Magic, Mystery, and Science The triumph of science would appear to have routed all other explanations of reality. No longer does astrology or alchemy or magic have the power to explain the world to us. Yet at one time each of these systems of belief, like religion, helped shed light on what was dark to our understanding. Nor have the occult arts disappeared. We humans have a need for mystery and a sense of the infinite. Magic, Mystery, and Science presents the occult as a "third stream" of belief, as important to the shaping of Western civilization as Greek rationalism or Judeo-Christianity. The occult seeks explanations in a world that is living and intelligent—quite unlike the one supposed by science. By taking these beliefs seriously, while keeping an eye on science, this book aims to capture some of the power of the occult. Readers will discover that the occult has a long history that reaches back to Babylonia and ancient Egypt. It proceeds alongside, and frequently mingles with, religion and science. From the Egyptian Book of the Dead to New Age beliefs, from Plato to Adolf Hitler, occult ways of knowing have been used—and hideously abused—to explain a world that still tempts us with the knowledge of its dark secrets.

Magic, Science, and Religion in Early Modern Europe
Author: Mark A. Waddell
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108591167
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
From the recovery of ancient ritual magic at the height of the Renaissance to the ignominious demise of alchemy at the dawn of the Enlightenment, Mark A. Waddell explores the rich and complex ways that premodern people made sense of their world. He describes a time when witches flew through the dark of night to feast on the flesh of unbaptized infants, magicians conversed with angels or struck pacts with demons, and astrologers cast the horoscopes of royalty. Ground-breaking discoveries changed the way that people understood the universe while, in laboratories and coffee houses, philosophers discussed how to reconcile the scientific method with the veneration of God. This engaging, illustrated new study introduces readers to the vibrant history behind the emergence of the modern world.

The Clavis Or Key to the Magic of Solomon
Author: Ebenezer Sibley
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780892541591
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The Clavis or Key to the Magic of Solomon is one of several notebooks from the estate of Ebenezer Sibley, transcribed under the direction of Frederic Hockley (1808-1885). Sibley was a prominent physician and an influential author, who complemented his scientific studies with writings on the "deeper truths" including magic, astrology, alchemy, and hypnotherapy. Both Sibley and Hockley were major inspirations in the occult revival of the past two centuries, influencing A.E. Waite, S.L. Mathers, Aleister Crowley, as well as the Golden Dawn, Rosicrucian, and Masonic movements. This collection reflects Sibley's teachings on the practical use of celestial influences and harmonies. The Clavis contains clear and systematic instructions for constructing magical tools and pentacles for many practical purposes. It includes eight separate magical texts: The Mysterious Ring, Experiments of the Spirits, Birto, Vassago, Agares, Bealpharos, The Wheel of Wisdom, and the Complete Book of Magic Science. The manuscript reproduced here is the most accurate and complete known, very beautifully and carefully written complete with extraordinary hand-colored seals and colored handwritten text. 282 color pages with a color fold-out and a huge idex.

El grimorio secreto de Turiel Un erudito anónimo UN SISTEMA DE MAGIA CEREMONIAL EL GRAN ARCANO (Los ritos de la magia ceremonial) Turiel, Tûrêl en traducciones posteriores, fue el 18o Observador de los 20 líderes de los 200 ángeles caídos mencionados en una obra antigua llamada el libro de Enoc Se cree que el nombre proviene de tuwr, el , que significa roca de Dios . Grimoire secreto de Turiel , en el que el mago recibe instrucciones sobre cómo contactar a Turiel. Se cree que se escribió alrededor de 1518, pero puede haberse copiado de algo más antiguo. Salió a la superficie en 1927, después de que fue vendido a Marius Malchus en España por un sacerdote expulsado y luego fue traducido al inglés del latín original. Turiel (o Tûrêl; arameo: טוריאל; griego: Τουριήλ) es un observador caído en el antiguo texto apócrifo conocido como el libro de Enoc. En traducciones posteriores, es uno de los 20 líderes de 200 ángeles caídos, mencionados en el decimoctavo. Se cree que el nombre se origina en tuwr roca y El Dios , que significa roca de Dios , mientras que la traducción tomada del trabajo de MA Knibb en el Libro Etíope de Enoc es Montaña de Dios o Roca de Dios .

Afirma haber sido escrito alrededor de 1518 y puede haber sido copiado de algo más antiguo. Según el editor original, el trabajo fue encontrado por Marius Malchus en 1927, después de comprar una traducción al inglés de un original latino ahora perdido de un sacerdote expulsado, que copió antes de desecharlo. Ninguna referencia a la obra apareció en ningún lugar antes de 1960, cuando la obra se publicó originalmente, y la historia del sacerdote descongelado y el manuscrito perdido es una ficción destinada a encubrir por qué el autor no pudo producir copias antes del siglo XX. El trabajo se ve y vuelve a mezclar el trabajo de AE Waite, 1898, El libro de la magia negra y los pactos (particularmente su traducción de Arbatel de la magia veterinaria) y la introducción de Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers en la edición de 1888 de The Key of Salomon el rey. En última instancia, está relacionado con (si no se basa en) un manuscrito de Frederick Hockley, de mediados del siglo XIX, titulado El libro completo de la ciencia mágica, del cual existían varias copias en diferentes bibliotecas.
