And the companion (Consort) was Mary of Magdala (Mary Magdalene). The Lord loved Mary more than all the other disciples and he kissed her often on her mouth (the text is missing here and the word "mouth" is assumed). The others saw his love for Mary and asked him: "Why do you love her more than all of us?" The Savior replied, "Why do I not love you in the same way I love her?" (The Gospel of Philip)

Jesus Christ emphasized the power of the word; "By thy words thou shalt be justified and by thy words thou shalt be condemned," and "death and life are in power of the tongue." So man has power to change an unhappy condition by waving over it the wand of his word. In the place of sorrow appears joy, in the place of sickness appears health, in the place of lack appears plenty. The imaging faculty is the creative faculty and it is important to choose words which bring a flash of the fulfillment of the demand.

Paradoxes of the Highest Science does not contain the paths to great wealth, the secrets to prosperity, nor the call to power; on the contrary, this work will provide the uninitiated glimpses of the true nature of the occult, hints of universal truth and wisdom.

Several schools of Zen developed in China in the 9th century. The Rinzai (Chinese, Lin-chi) sect of Zen was introduced to Japan by the Chinese priest Ensai in 1191. Rinzai Buddhism emphasizes the use of koans, paradoxical puzzles or questions that help the practitioner to overcome the normal boundaries of logic. Whatever the method of reaching enlightenment, once reached we realize the state of enlightenment we sought was there within us all along. The method is the gate, but there need not be any gate, since the gate is always open.

In time the Piby shall contain all worthy prophecies and inspirations endowed by God upon the sons and daughters of Ethiopia, but no article shall be permitted to enter the Piby save that which is in accordance with the gospel of the 20th century, preached by his holiness, Shepherd Athlyi, apostle Marcus Garvey and colleague; the three apostles anointed and sent forth by the Almighty God to lay the foundation of industry, liberty and justice unto the generations of Ethiopia that they prove themselves a power among the nations and in the glory of their God.

The Greater Key of Solomon remains one of the most influential works of ceremonial magic in the Western tradition.

The Space-Born is a rare poetic work by Manly P. Hall, presented here as a complete cycle of meditative poems reflecting on human consciousness and its relationship to the infinite. Best known for works such as The Secret Teachings of All Ages and Initiates of the Flame, Hall adopts a quieter and more interior voice in this volume. These poems do not teach through argument or exposition, but through image, rhythm, and reflective cadence. Together, they form a contemplative sequence concerned with inner awakening, moral responsibility, and the meeting point between spirit and lived experience.

History has given us two separate and very different books by the same title. One of these may be the book mentioned in the Holy Bible. If so, it would reveal history and information which would augment and supplement our knowledge of the events from creation to the conquering of the Promised Land. The Books of Jasher includes details about the antediluvian patriarchs, the institution of the 10 Commandments, the establishment of the priesthood, angels, watchers, the flood, the tower of Babel, and many other events mentioned in the Bible.

The Magus, first published in 1801, remains one of the most influential works in the Western occult tradition—a sweeping compendium of natural magic, celestial intelligences, talismans, angelic hierarchies, and hidden correspondences between the material and spiritual worlds.

In 1868, a French archaeologist and his team were excavating a cemetery in Egypt when they came upon a certain tomb from the eighth century. In the tomb was a monk, reclining peacefully with hands folded on his breast, clasping a small book which he believed to be sacred, holy, and inspired. This book contained the Gospel of Peter. A portion of The Gospel According to Peter had been restored to the Christian community after having been lost over a thousand years.

Only he who understands life will be able to take his lessons from life itself. He will draw up no capricious schemes, for he knows that no other fundamental laws of life will prevail in the future than such as prevail in the present. Theosophy will therefore of necessity have respect for the existing state of things. Even, should it still find in what is existent, very much that might be improved, yet it will not fail to perceive in the present the germs of the future. But it knows, too, that for all things nascent there is a growth and a development.

This edition of The Lesser Key of Solomon, also known as Lemegeton Clavicula Salomonis, offers a complete facsimile of the original Goetia text alongside extensive scholarly commentary.

Is mankind headed for destruction? How will it all end? When will it happen? What is man's destiny? Will we die by our own hand or by the hand of God? For thousands of years, the questions have been the same. Millions of souls have searched for the answers to no avail; nevertheless, some believed they knew. We call them prophets. They saw the end of our world, and they believed their visions were true.

Legends of the Yoruba gathers together a treasury of folktales from the Yoruba people of Southern Nigeria—stories shaped by centuries of oral tradition, ancestral memory, and a deep, intimate relationship with the natural and spiritual worlds. These tales, preserved and retold by M. I.

A Textbook of Theosophy presents one of the clearest and most enduring summaries of the Theosophical worldview—an approach that stands simultaneously as philosophy, religion, and science, yet remains distinct from all three in its claim to unveil the universal truth behind every faith and every era of human inquiry.

First issued in 1925, Unto Thee I Grant is a concise work of ethical instruction composed in aphoristic form. Designed for reflection rather than doctrine, it belongs to a long tradition of moral literature intended to be read, remembered, and applied across contexts.

The text is reproduced without modernization or interpretive revision, allowing listeners to encounter the work as it circulated in the early twentieth century.

The First Book of Enoch is also known as the Lost Book of Enoch, Ethiopic Enoch, and 1 Enoch. The Second Book of Enoch is also known as Slavonic Enoch, the Book of the Secrets of Enoch, and 2 Enoch. This is one of a very few books containing both ancient texts in one volume.
