William Judge is known as one of the central figures of the early school of Theosophy- his works were numerous, but it is perhaps "Epitome..." which contains the most advanced, yet general, overview of some of the beliefs therein. Judge delves into reincarnation, devachan, various eastern concepts and terms, and expounds his beliefs and those of Theosophy within this work. Upon these principles, such spiritual systems have flourished, as the west adopts and adapts eastern systems for use.

After the Ashes is more than a typical survival hand guide. Because of the realization that atomic warfare is likely inevitable, it seeks to both inform the reader of why this is the case, and beyond merely lists of survival materials, attempts to enumerate reasonable ways in which mankind can, as it must, recover after such an event. Most materials written on this subject do little other than to teach survival methods themselves, and thus miss one important point; while they may help a person survive, they will not help mankind to truly recover from what would be the most trying period in...

For thousands of years man has dwelt in ignorance of the true story of God. Spending his time fighting others with different beliefs, man has held himself back through oppression, enslaving himself as well to ancient dogma without knowing its true source. The Nonfiction Bible is the one absolute, unadulterated, true word of this same God. Witness the epic struggle of Jesus and Satan as they fight over whether disco or rock and roll will become the dominant musical force for mankind. See God destroy the world because of apple pie. Hear the tale of Jesus slaying a dragon and starting a small...

Many species of plant and fungi grow wild across the world, or are cultivated in gardens frequently, with many of the people encountering them completely oblivious to their mind altering qualities. From the common blue trumpets of the morning glory in every other garden to the waxy flesh of san pedro cacti used for landscaping in the Southwest United States and Mexico, many species contain mind altering substances but go unnoticed. This should not be seen as a guide to attempting to harvest these plants, but rather a short and educational guide merely on their existence. This guide includes...

This work contains a collection of arcane material ranging from fringe mathematics and science to the world of the psychic and the realm of philosophy. Unlike some texts, which cover only those topics from the generally spiritual or the completely secular, this work seeks to unite both under one cover. Important here is the concept of the cycle, and oscillation, and the overarching ideal of "as above, so below" so often regarded as a spiritual singularity, which should instead be seen as a connection strictly, without bias, between the spiritual world and the physical one. When these...

The Occult Compendium compiles several originally shorter works into one text. The purpose of this work, simply put, is to expound several occult philosophical musings, related to one another by virtue of their content. From a topical overview of the archetypes associated with Satan, to the applied archetypes thereof (and of the occult) to pop culture, and exploring deeper into Sumerian mythology and the psychic arts, this text is part guide and part philosophical compilation. It contains as well a short resource base for the occult; various groups associated with magick and modern philosophy...

How does society view the use of psychedelics? Is its view to such use sensible, or nonsense? What role did mind altering substances play in the development of religion and culture? "Psychedelic Spirituality" seeks to answer these and other questions, based on the best possible anthropological evidence, along with both ancient and modern spiritual study- with more than a little bit of experimentation. From the failure of the drug war, to the degradation over time of primitive drug cults into modern religion, all psychedelic spirituality must be considered if such questions are to be answered....

The Testament of Solomon has stood the test of time and remained one of the seminole occult works of antiquity. Far predating the Lesser Keys and associated works, it dates to between the first and fifth centuries, seemingly basing part of its content on proto-judaean lore and Greek works as well. It contains, as well, an allusion to the concept, simply, "As above, so below"- one of the earlier references to such, if the earlier dating is true. It describes a host of demons encountered by King Solomon during his time spent enslaving the same, for the purposes of the building of the temple at...

One of the lengthier grimoires of the medieval period, the Ars Notoria, commonly referred to as the Notary Art of Solomon, promises the reader a series of orations, prayers, and invocations, which may be used to secure the favor of the christian god, enhancing the memory, eloquence, and general academic capability of the one performing such rituals. Originally its own text, based on even older sources not yet fully documented, this text is commonly wrapped up into the Lesser Keys of Solomon along with such works as the Ars Goetia- some editions of the latter omit this work. Prayers contained...

The Chaldean Oracles of Zoroaster are a collection of short, manifest-style philosophical concepts first written around the second or third century AD. They comprise a series of musings from the Gnostic path; perhaps from a certain figure named Julian the Theurgist, although the specific author is not known. To this, here, is added the Hypostasis of the Archons- a Gnostic work specifically telling the Gnostic story of Genesis, regarding the tyranny of the demiurge and the shadowy forces of what most humans consider the heavenly- for here it is Pistis Sophia and the divine realm well above...
