Pages : 62
Book Description
Lu Samadhi, The Blue Lotus, Philosophia Perennis and The Mood and the Lotus are a series of four books about inner science, about the remembrance rediscovery of the self through meditation. They are about the realization of your soul and how this realization can change your life completely. When you live your life in your mind, you live in a horizontal plane. When you live your life through your soul, there is a quantum leap from the horizontal to the vertical plane. This timeless vertical plane is the dimension of the soul, where past, present and future cease to exist.Through these four books, you will learn one of the most sophisticated methodologies for understanding the 7 strata of organic unity - the Astral Bodies. The first one is the Physical Body, which moves forward through time. The Etheric body, which is your emotional layer, moves through space. The Astral body, which is your unconscious, can travel backwards in time all the way to your birth. The Mental body has a horizontal dimension and can pierce past the future one at a time. The spiritual body has a vertical dimension and can pierce backwards up to empty consciousness. The cosmic body, also in the vertical dimension, is the body where you are essentially diffused, annihilated and become one with the cosmos. The seventh and last body, The Nirvanic body, is an incorporeal state where you are essentially intrinsic to the empty consciousness, immortal, eternal.These four books will allow you to discover the essential immortality of your soul. The methodology of inner science contained in them will help you in the evolution of your organic unity.

Ancient Egyptian Society
Author: Danielle Candelora
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000636259
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 410
Book Description
This volume challenges assumptions about—and highlights new approaches to—the study of ancient Egyptian society by tackling various thematic social issues through structured individual case studies. The reader will be presented with questions about the relevance of the past in the present. The chapters encourage an understanding of Egypt in its own terms through the lens of power, people, and place, offering a more nuanced understanding of the way Egyptian society was organized and illustrating the benefits of new approaches to topics in need of a critical re-examination. By re-evaluating traditional, long-held beliefs about a monolithic, unchanging ancient Egyptian society, this volume writes a new narrative—one unchecked assumption at a time. Ancient Egyptian Society: Challenging Assumptions, Exploring Approaches is intended for anyone studying ancient Egypt or ancient societies more broadly, including undergraduate and graduate students, Egyptologists, and scholars in adjacent fields.

Popular Religion and Shamanism
Author: Xisha Ma
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004174559
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 506
Book Description
Popular Religion and Shamanism addresses two areas of religion within Chinese society; the lay teachings that Chinese scholars term folk or “popular” religion, and shamanism. Each area represents a distinct tradition of scholarship, and the book is therefore split into two parts. Part I: Popular Religion discusses the evolution of organized lay movements over an arc of ten centuries. Its eight chapters focus on three key points: the arrival and integration of new ideas before the Song dynasty, the coalescence of an intellectual and scriptural tradition during the Ming, and the efflorescence of new organizations during the late Qing. Part II: Shamanism reflects the revived interest of scholars in traditional beliefs and culture that reemerged with the “open” policy in China that occurred in the 1970s. Two of the essays included in this section address shamanism in northeast China where the traditions played an important role in the cultures of the Manchu, Mongol, Sibe, Daur, Oroqen, Evenki, and Hezhen. The other essay discusses divination rites in a local culture of southwest China.
