The Way of the Heathen

ISBN: 9781929340019
Category : Germanic cults
Languages : en
Pages : 229
Book Description
Millennial alternative religion, almost defies category, truly a book like no other. Practical handbook of revised pre-Christian pan-Germanic folk religion "Theodish Belief." We are only too accustomed to Wicca, Neopaganism, New Age systems, to take one more pop-occultnik handbook all that seriously, but be warned Way of the Heathen is not that. This "revival" is not only real & radical, but often takes the whole belief system of the Western world to talk like an Old Testament prophet, weighing our modern ways & finding them wanting! Psychologically & sociologically sophisticated, WAY OF has a lot to say about social dynamics of alternative religious groups, how to organize & run them, author Gasman Lord has obviously been there, done that. Occasionally, scholarly, though footnote-free, goes in-depth on topics like morals & ethics, oaths, boasts, animal sacrifice, sacral kingship, leadership, followership, poetry, law & custom, non-Augustmian metaphysics, roles of women, true natures of the gods, true role of autochtonous religion in family & community. Gasman Lord rightly calls Theodism a "Wisdom Tradition," it's all of that! Ordering Info: Order directly from THEOD, PO Box 8062, Watertown, NY 13601,

Heilvegr

Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781725694682
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
The Heilvegr is a Nine Step Recovery program for Heathens who suffer from Addiction, Depression, or PTSD. This program differs drastically from Twelve Step Programs in a key and fundamental way: as Heathens, we accept responsibility for our actions. For too long, those of our faith who have these issues have had to look outside of our faith for help, chiefly to programs that tell us that we are powerless, and to submit ourselves to a thinly veiled foreign higher power. No longer must we do this in order to put ourselves back on the path to health and holiness, the Heilvegr. The principles outlined in this book draw on the work of Carl Jung and Germanic mythology in order to create a path to healing that can help not only addicts, but those with depression and PTSD as well.

The Pagan In Recovery: The Twelve Steps From A Pagan Perspective
Author: Deirdre A. Hebert
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0982579861
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
The Twelve Steps developed by Alcoholics Anonymous are powerful tools to transform the lives of people who struggle with addiction, co-dependency, and compulsive behaviors. Unfortunately, Pagans in recovery are likely to struggle with the Christian assumptions and language found in many of these programs. This book is intended to support a Pagan's participation in any Twelve Step program, by showing that the effectiveness and relevance of these tools does not depend on a specific religious or spiritual tradition. This book attempts to bridge the gap between the Christian and Pagan understanding of the Twelve Steps, while remaining faithful to the original Twelve Step process. The Pagan in Recovery is the result of Deirdre Hebert's ability to live her Pagan faith in the midst of a program with a deeply Christian heritage, and demonstrates that anyone, of any faith, can experience freedom from addictions, compulsive or co-dependent behaviors through this process.
