Years ago I remember reading Rodney Collin say in Theory of Celestial Influence that the first time you hear about self-remembering, or the first time you read those words, in that very moment you self-remember. And I remember at the time I was sitting in front of a large plate glass window, it was dark on the other side of the window, and I read that line and looked up. And I saw myself looking at a reflection of myself, looking back at me. It was really powerful. It was an addition to being an observer. And the reflection in the window kind of triggered an intuition - something that was not fully formed, that was contributing to the power of that moment. But it was an immediate verification of the truth of what Collin had said, that those words would trigger the state. I didn't understand this at the time, but later I realized it also verified Rodney Collin's idea of self-remembering....

With stunningly original illustrations by Kevin Watts, The Awakening of Man Hamlet is psychological commentary at its finest. Reminding us at the very beginning that Hamlet's main message is about awakening, what it is and, most importantly, what it is not: the author John Stubbs points out that you cannot awaken, for example, just by behaving differently from now on, that is by "adding virtue" to your resume. Why? The author explains: "Because your old self will absorb the new and make it its own, thus corrupting it... Consequently, you have to remove the old stock completely - your entire old self has to go." Letting this first message resonate, the author then points out the second, equally disquieting message: "In order to completely remove the old self you must even remove the part which is doing the removing." That is why by the end of Hamlet, with the exception of Horatio cast in the role of being the messenger, every major character is dead. Nothing of the old self remains -- not even its highest and most noble part, Hamlet. Be or Not Be.

A compilation of letters, articles and essays that first appeared in various publications, this book first appeared in 2007. Since then it has become evident that a second edition is necessary both because of changes in the object of discussion -- practical application of the Fourth Way system of Gurdjieff and Ouspensky greatly enriched by the teachings of Robert Burton -- and because of the continued maturation of the author Rolando Altamirano. In the Introduction Rolando explains: "A School of Fourth Way is a living organism, and as such it is constantly growing, developing and changing; and most of all, it moves at an increasing speed." This book mirrors that movement.

"Philadelphia A Story Sequence in Verse" is a window on the work of esoteric schools. It portrays a small, representative group of loving friends who at first naively and later decisively with the potent ancient knowledge in which they have been instructed engage in storytelling's highest purpose: to remind and remind and remind us again to remember and hold ourselves aware of what our busy minds are always forgetting - the present, where the divine resides. John Craig, the author, is a poet and teacher who with his wife Victoria, a native of Phila-delphia, lives in the Sierra foothills of northern California. They have two grown sons.

Out of Africa The Ancient Egyptian Connection is a book about two journeys: the soul's journey from spiritual sleep to awakening and its journey within this awakening. The first of these has been well-documented, the latter equally significant, is rarely mentioned -- perhaps because most of us have little or no experience with it. It eludes ordinary comprehension. In this two-volume work, Dr. Moore (PhD, Princeton 1978) attempts to reconstruct the nature of those journeys from the fragmentary evidence left behind in two sources -- the so-called Book of the Amduat inside the tombs of Thutmosis III and Ramses VI and the less well-known Book of the Two Ways duplicated inside the lids of thousands of coffins of Ancient Egyptian nobles. Standing on the shoulders of two giants of Egyptology -- Alexandre Piankoff and Richard Faulkner-- Dr. Moore takes the unprecendented and daring step of mapping onto the sacred texts themselves the schema of the cartoon-like stick figures depicted on the tomb walls. Enigmatic until now, the text and images suddenly become transparent, voices can be heard. And then as if this were not radical surgery enough, the author identifies and decodes the voices. Nothing so controversial in its implications has been done before.
