From the temples of Ancient Egypt to the bustling emergency rooms of New York, from the works of Homer to the monks of the Middle Ages, from the saint to the shaman, Bourke examines the crisis apparition and the phenomena of the "living ghost" in legends, lyric, and lore, demonstrating their universal nature for the first time. He shares profound accounts from a wide range of sources, including history, literature, folklore, theology, and contemporary culture to reveal how widespread these ghostly encounters are throughout the ages. In demonstrating how these remarkable encounters with "living ghosts" aren't fearsome experiences but leave the recipient full of healing and hope, this book offers insight into how the beloved dead seem to communicate and the intertwined nature of humanity in this world and the next.

EASTERN SPIRITUALITY / YOGA There is an intimate relationship between breathing and our emotional state. When we are nervous or excited, our breath rate increases. Conversely, if we alter our rate of breathing, we can alter our emotional state. The ancient civilization of India developed methods for changing the emotions and states of consciousness through yogic meditation and pranayama (breath control). Secret Power of Tantrik Breathing teaches the advanced pranayama system of svarodaya, which is based on the fact that we normally breathe freely through only one nostril at a time. In a healthy person, breathing changes roughly every 90 minutes from one nostril to the other, with each nostril imparting different qualities to one's mental and physical state. Breath passing through the left nostril is cool, soothing, passive, and feminine in nature; right-nostril breath is warm, energizing, active, and masculine. When the breath remains in one nostril for longer than normal, mental and physical illness can result. The goal of svarodaya is to harmonize the breath from each nostril with the life task needing to be accomplished. This book explains how to practice this breath control and how the vital energy of breath interacts with the chakras and energy channels (nadis) to create overall balance and harmony. It also includes svarodaya breathing techniques to help overcome illnesses, infertility, and bad luck; make predictions; and attain liberation from the cycle of rebirth. SWAMI SIVAPRIYANANDA (1939-1997) was born in Gujarat, India, and studied Sanskrit and Pali at Pune University. In 1974, after taking sannyasa, the act of renunciation within Hinduism, he visited many saints, ashrams, and centers of traditional learning in search of material on forgotten and neglected aspects of Indian religion and culture.

ANCIENT MYSTERIES / SECRET SOCIETIES "This modern alchemical manifesto has been inspiring thinkers for half a century. It illuminates the intersection between science and mysticism, proclaiming matter as a gateway of the spirit. The Morning of the Magicians declares that an objective appreciation of the material world is a means by which we may attain an awakened state of consciousness, the next step in human evolutionary destiny. This study of 'fantastic realism' is a look behind one of the many masks of God." --James Wasserman, author of The Secrets of Masonic Washington and An Illustrated History of the Knights Templar This groundbreaking, international bestseller, first published in 1960, couples profound insights into the hidden history of humanity with scientific evidence that supports the existence of paranormal activity, telepathy, and extraterrestrial communications. The first book to explore in depth the Nazi fascination with the occult, Pauwels and Bergier also broke new ground with their study of pyramidology, alchemy and its close kinship with atomic energy, and the possibility of a widespread mutation of humanity that would herald a new age for the earth. Their study of secret societies, starting with the Rosicrucians, suggests that such changes are actively being pursued in the present day by a "conspiracy" of the most spiritually and intellectually advanced members of the human race. The Morning of the Magicians will open your mind to questions that have previously gone unanswered: -Were the masterminds behind the great civilizations of Central and South America from Mars? -What connects the ancient art of alchemy and modern atomic physics? -Was Hitler, during his mystical trances, in touch with the "Unknown Master"? -Does extrasensory perception reveal that human consciousness has advanced beyond its currently accepted limits? The Morning of the Magicians explores the anomalous events collected by Charles Fort, the work of Gurdjieff, and the history of the mysterious Fulcanelli, who was widely believed to have manufactured the philosopher's stone--which provided the Nazis the motive for mounting an intensive search for him during their occupation of Paris. Much more than a collection of strange facts defying conventional wisdom, this book remains a sophisticated philosophical exploration of repressed phenomena and hidden histories that asks its readers to look at reality with ever "awakened eyes." LOUIS PAUWELS (1920-1997) was a French journalist who founded the magazine Planete, an outgrowth of this book. JACQUES BERGIER (1912-1978) was a nuclear physicist and chemical engineer who was active in the French Resistance in World War II and helped destroy the German atomic plant at Peenemunde.

• Discover the thoughts, history, and customs of the Shuar of the Amazon, as told in their own words.• Tribe members explain their practices of shapeshifting and headhunting; the interdependence of humans and the environment; the role of ecstatic sex; their belief in war as a path to peace; and their faith in arutam, the life spirit. The indomitable Shuar of the Amazon--reputed to be the only tribe in the Americas that has never been conquered--have lived as warriors, hunters, cultivators, and healers for generations. Even in today's acquisitive, often wasteful world they defend their rainforests and sustainable ways of life and offer their philosophy of love, joy, and hope. More than three decades after first befriending members of the Shuar, author and environmentalist John Perkins and his publisher, Ehud Sperling, inspired Shakaim Mariano Chumpi-a young Shuar warrior who has fought in the jungle war between his native Ecuador and Peru-to travel among his people and record their thoughts, history, and customs. The result is Spirit of the Shuar. Here, in their own words, the Shuar share their practices of shapeshifting, "dreaming the world," and ecstatic sex, including the role older women play in teaching uninitiated men how to please. They explain the interdependence of humans and the environment, their formula for peace and balance, and their faith in arutam, the life-giving spirit of nature that allows each of us to transform ourselves. And they describe how their ancient-and current-practice of shrinking heads fits into their cultural philosophy. Whether exploring the mystery of shamanic shapeshifting, delving deeper into the powers of healing herbs and psychotropic plants, or finding new ways to live sustainably and sensitively in the face of encroaching development and environmental destruction, the Shuar have emerged as a strong people determined to preserve their identity and beliefs and share their teachings with a world in dire need of their wisdom. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the Ayumpum Foundation to help the Shuar conserve their forests and spread their message.
