In this book, we will be experimenting with a phenomenon called quantum jumping. You have probably heard of this before and, yes, some elements of quantum jumping will be in this book; but that is where the commonalities end. We will be performing magic but not in the way I have explained in my 19 other books. We will be performing magic to influence our lives today but performing the ritual in a parallel universe. You will find your magician doppelgänger whose magic is always effective, and you will meld with him or her.

Throughout my many years in the occult, I recall many wonderful things. I was enamored by so many different systems that I just had to try them all. For the most part, I did. Some with great success and some not so much. One aspect of the magickal practices that really interested me was the use of talismanic or seal magick. I used all kinds of talismans, and each had its own energy and feel.

What you are about to learn right now is rather obscure. It's a hidden side of an otherwise popular spiritual practice. What you will learn is the Dark Mantras of Subjugation called Vashikaran. I call them dark because they are meant to "subjugate" people and events to your will, or "command" them. That kind of thing was relegated to black magick and witchcraft here in the West. But is there actually such a thing as white and black magick in the Eastern traditions? Or perhaps we, in the West, interpret these things in stark black-and-white terms?

Let’s face it - whether we like money or not, in this world, we need it. Money makes the world go round. This has been the case since the dawn of humanity. Although, in the most ancient of days money was not used, other goods were. Grain, livestock, and goods of all types were used to obtain other goods. It was a bartering system as it were. Today, we use money as a means of obtaining goods, but in actuality, it is still bartering. It is just that we have added an extra element to it. Money, now, allows us to exchanges goods. It gives us the right to.

There has never been a goddess in all the western traditions as maligned as the Goddess Lilith. She has been called the epitome of all that is evil in the world. She was considered wild, uninhibited, argumentative, and sexually deviant. She has been called the temptress, the prostitute from hell, and most popularly as the succubus that comes and not only steals the semen of men as they sleep, but also killing them in the process. Some of these qualities might very well be true and some not so much.

In this book, you will learn, for the first time, the six hidden names of God within the first few verses in the book of Genesis. The names are in Hebrew, but do not worry. I will transliterate as necessary. These names are known by very few people. Today, you will learn them for yourself. Although the Old Testament books are filled with secret names of the divine, the ones in the book of Genesis are of utmost importance.

If there is one thing we all have in common, is that we live on this great planet we call home. We often do not sit and reflect at the immensity of this planet. We take it for granted. Our days are so packed with activity and busy work that we forget where we come from. Very few people today can detach even for a moment to realize the miracle of existence on this great planet. According to both science and religion, life on this planet is a miracle, perhaps a fluke. No matter what you want to call it, that life exists here at all is amazing.

In this book I'm going to deal with what magick is, I'm going to go into why magick works when you actually perform a ritual, of course it does involve spirits and it does involve supernatural powers but there is another reason. If you notice that the more intention you have towards the ritual, the more effective it is, so there is an individual component in every single ritual. We will discuss individuality, embracing of the dark side, being present in life.

What you are about to hear is not for the faint of the heart. You will be creating a powerful spiritual entity - an entity that will know you better than you know yourself. It will know all your secrets, your weaknesses, and your strengths. It will also be your servant. It will do whatever you tell it to do, both for good or ill. Although it is you who will create it, its energy and life force traces back deep into primordial time. People throughout history, and even to this day, call upon these entities for help.

By attaining Siddhi, while using a mantra, you are literally embodying the power of that mantra. You will have the mantra's power. For example, if you are looking to attract material abundance, the seed mantra for that is "shreem". If you recite "shreem" 10,000 times, you will attain the essence of that Supernatural power. You will be able to recite "shreem" and attain your material goals easily. You will be a magnet, as it were. You will attain supernatural powers.

Many magickal texts have been written around the Watchers, and I am hoping to add my two cents to the discussion. Several decades ago, I worked with the Watchers. Aside from the rituals of course, we will be covering the basics of the Watchers' story as it is understood in Genesis since it is there that the first inkling of the story emerges in the scriptural tradition. Also, some texts exist that predate Genesis that contain a proto-Watchers narrative. Some of these early stories have some connection to Ancient Mesopotamia.

Shiva is one of the most mysterious gods of the Hindu pantheon. His energy can be found in all things, yet his tranquil and fierce energy can seem out of reach for some. His images often depict him in a meditative state or in his most common form, the Nataraja, or the one who dances within the circular fires that represent creation and dissolution.

Publisher's summary
This is volume one of the Bible Magick series. In this book we will discuss magick and some of its uses in the Bible. Often we are told that magick and the teachings of the Bible don't mix. We are warned time and time again that if we use magick we are breaking God's law. In this book, I will show you clearly that magick has been used in the Bible by divine command. This book is not a book on how to perform Bible magick, but rather that there is such a thing as Bible magic and that's it's okay to use the Bible for magical purposes.
In future volumes, I will go into Bible magick practice itself. This book will serve as background that you will need before starting a biblical magic practice. Using the Bible for magick, although fairly common, is quite controversial. There are clear passages in the Bible that state magick of all kinds is forbidden. Yet, there are so many instances that God himself commands his followers to perform magickal acts. I am not talking about miracles, but He is actually commanding them to preform magick that you would find amongst other magicians of the day. In this book we will examine a few of these occurrences. We will also discuss why the Bible writers forbade magick as well. You won't want to miss that chapter. Let us begin.

In The Bible’s Cutting Room Floor, acclaimed author and translator Dr. Joel M. Hoffman gives us the stories and other texts that didn’t make it into the Bible even though they offer penetrating insight into the Bible and its teachings. The Book of Genesis tells us about Adam and Eve’s time in the Garden of Eden, but not their saga after they get kicked out or the lessons they have for us about good and evil.

Why does the Bible depict a world in which humans, with surprising regularity, encounter the divine - wrestling an angel, addressing a burning bush, issuing forth prophecy without any choice in the matter? These stories spoke very differently to their original audience than they do to us, and they reflect a radically distinct understanding of reality and the human mind. Yet over the course of the thousand-year biblical era, encounters with God changed dramatically.

In this profound and provocative work of scholarly detection, eminent biblical scholar Robert Eisenman introduces a startling theory about the identity of James - the brother of Jesus - who was almost entirely marginalized in the New Testament.

In The Bible’s Cutting Room Floor, acclaimed author and translator Dr. Joel M. Hoffman gives us the stories and other texts that didn’t make it into the Bible even though they offer penetrating insight into the Bible and its teachings. The Book of Genesis tells us about Adam and Eve’s time in the Garden of Eden, but not their saga after they get kicked out or the lessons they have for us about good and evil.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 28
Why does the Bible depict a world in which humans, with surprising regularity, encounter the divine - wrestling an angel, addressing a burning bush, issuing forth prophecy without any choice in the matter? These stories spoke very differently to their original audience than they do to us, and they reflect a radically distinct understanding of reality and the human mind. Yet over the course of the thousand-year biblical era, encounters with God changed dramatically.

James was a vegetarian, wore only linen clothing, bathed daily at dawn in cold water, and was a life-long Nazirite. In this profound and provocative work of scholarly detection, eminent biblical scholar Robert Eisenman introduces a startling theory about the identity of James - the brother of Jesus - who was almost entirely marginalized in the New Testament.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 843
In a book that took eight years to research and write, leading Bible scholar Bart D. Ehrman explores how an apocalyptic prophet from the backwaters of rural Galilee crucified for crimes against the state came to be thought of as equal with the one God Almighty Creator of all things. Ehrman sketches Jesus's transformation from a human prophet to the Son of God exalted to divine status at his resurrection. Only when some of Jesus's followers had visions of him after his death - alive again - did anyone come to think that he, the prophet from Galilee, had become God.

Between 50 and 90 CE, the various writings that comprise the New Testament were written, including the four Gospels, the Acts of the Apostles, the Epistles of Paul, and other letters to more general communities of the early Church. But what is recognized as the 26 books of the New Testament today, in literally hundreds of English translations, actually took several more centuries to be determined as "canonical" by the Church.

Relying on new research and improved translations, Kenneth C. Davis uncovers some amazing questions and contradictions about what the Bible really says: Jericho’s walls may have tumbled down because the city lies on a fault line; Moses never parted the Red Sea; There was a Jesus, but he wasn’t born on Christmas and he probably wasn't an only child....

Biblical scholars, Egyptologists, archaeologists, historians, literary scholars, anthropologists, and filmmakers are drawn to the mystery of the exodus. Unable to find physical evidence until now, many archaeologists and scholars claim this mass migration is just a story, not history. Others oppose this conclusion, defending the biblical account.

The Council of Nicea was not clerics in a dark and ornate hall. It was brawls in churchyards; it was emperors and governors fighting to save the empire; it was political intrigue as the governments of church and state blended into a volatile stew. It was the way a fringe group of peace-loving communal worshipers of a crucified Palestinian prophet conquered the Roman Empire.

Historians know virtually nothing about the two decades following the crucifixion of Jesus, when his followers regrouped and began to spread his message. During this time the man we know as the apostle Paul joined the movement and began to preach to the gentiles. Using the oldest Christian documents that we have - the letters of Paul - as well as other early Christian sources, historian and scholar James Tabor reconstructs the origins of Christianity.

This extraordinary document represents a new form of historical research and straightens out many open questions and misinterpretations. It takes the form of direct dialogues between a modern researcher and a member of the Qumran Essene community. Alive around the time of Christ, this community has become the focus of ideas about the connection of Jesus' teachings to earlier traditions.

The story is surprising, controversial, and exciting as only a long-lost history can be when it is at last recovered.

mainly a list
90% of the book is simply a listing of so-called magical events in the Bible and what chapters they can be found. The only portion of any substance or value is the conclusion in which the author states his opinion as to why the Bible has so much magic in it and at the same time is anti-magic.
