This is a must have book for any serious student of Magick and the Golden Dawna treasure. This amazing one of a kind work is now available from New Falcon Publications and is limited to only 500 copies in the special limited first edition.

Israel Regardie is one of the most important figures in the twentieth century development of what many have termed the Western esoteric tradition, which normally refers to the synthesis accomplished by MacGregor Mathers within the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn during the 1890s. Among those who proceeded to explore and build among this tradition are Israel Regardie and Aleister Crowley. In this 1968 classic, Regardie prefaces and expands upon Crowley's discovery that drugs initiate and stimulate the mystical state, providing the reader with a backgroud to Crowley's The Herb Dangerous. The English poet and mystic, Aleister Crowley had produced a series of ten large magazine-like volumes with board covers entitled The Equinox. The intention was to publish a separate issue every Spring and Autumn for five years making ten numbers in all. Openly published in them were his superbly written essays on the psychology of hashish. These were his earliest overt admissions to the occasional use of hashish as a psychedelic agent. The first four issues of this periodical contained an important serial entitled The Herb Dangerous. The opening essay, The Pharmacy of Hashish, by an English chemist, E Whineray, was a clinical and chemical analysis of Cannabis Indica, whose first cousin is marijuana, Cannabis Sattiva. The second essay entitled The Psychology of Hashish was written by Oliver Haddo, one of the innumerable pseudonyms used by Aleister Crowley. It was succeeded in the third issue by The Poem of Hashish, written by Charles Baudelaire, and translated beautifully from the French by Crowley himself. The final installment of the serial consisted of selections from a fantastic piece of writing by H G Ludlow entitled The Hashish Eater. Easily a rival to de Quincy's Confessions of an Opium Eater, Ludlow's book was published by Harpers (New York, 1857). These four essays comprise the main body of this text.

This book fills a long-standing need in literature: Voodoo, Santeria, and Macumba as practiced today in cities throughout the Western world. It is not another history or sociological study, but a candid personal account by two who came to "the religion" from the outside. It includes descriptions of the phenomena triggered by Voodoo practice, divination techniques, spells and a method of self-initiation.

This is an important and timeless work for a variety of reasons, and New Falcon Press is proud to state that it should fufill an important need. First, it attempts to reduce methodically all metaphysical systems -- including Unity and New thought in all phases -- to historical developments emerging from Christian Science. Secondly, its interpretation is along psychoanalytical lines. The author and publisher believe this book should answer many questions raised regarding the relationship of metaphysics and modern psychological science. The author provides a comprehensive survey of the entire field by exegesis on its own metaphysical level and provides analytical insight into the mental structure of the founders. This is provided with sound scholarship, good judgement and sympathetic insight. No other author could cope adequately with this subject in the wide, synthetic and challenging manner evinced by the author in this amazing book. It is a book to be read from cover to cover, put on one's bookshelf as part of the permanent collection, and re-read from time to time.

Neo-Something Doom Puzzle is a playfully evil and sometimes violent book. It tells the tales of several young hipsters and losers struggling for stability in a carnivorous universe. Neuroses and bad luck weave together the ambitious journeys of the multiple protagonists. Hopes and dreams are taken apart and perversely re-arranged in a universe full of manipulative bosses, occult horror, awkward romance, perverse desires, morbid absurdity, living symbolism, and adventure. Fast-paced prose and abstract story-structure add layers of meaning to an experiment in narrative form. Sam is a naive and neurotic young man who is bullied by his family. He has a ghost-limb and a dream to create video games. When he gets an internship at a video game studio his bosses take advantage of his lack of experience, using him to spy on each other. He learns they are in over their heads in occult pursuits, which becomes bad news for Sam. Meanwhile Sam''s deranged family won''t let him be. Ted is a drug-damaged introvert who tries to rescue old friends from a haunted mountain during a skydiving misadventure. He discovers a world full of monsters and magic where subtle meaning manifests itself as discrete entities, time plays strange tricks on lost wanderers, and personalities are mere toys for inexplicable forces. He also explores the nature of evolving relationships. Other characters pursue their own ambitions via violent orgies, dangerous job-hunts, and team-building exercises gone-awry. Alongside the hostility of capitalist predators these sad heroes also meet creatures from the void, manifestations of the universe''s unknowableness, and puzzles of cosmic power. This book depicts hipsters and young professionals who find their struggles and desires are just a thin veil over a gaping, mysterious horror show. It symbolizes the fleeting nature of human life contrasted with the ancient force of the raw universe which generates and dissolves all people. Strengths and weaknesses take on lives of their own as the characters are forced to learn the hard way. If somebody is pulling the strings that weave these stories together, it''s hard to see who, and harder still to see why.

"The Everyday Atheist," by Ronald F. Murphy, is an honest look at a growing skepticism within the previously unquestioned religious community. This book represents Mr. Murphy's first work in a series that will attempt to discuss the stark realities of taboo subjects from the unbiased perspective of the everyday reader. In his initial book he provides a clear account of why he adopted, questioned, and ultimately rejected religious faith. No matter what your faith, his plainly spoken and readable narrative addresses the unspoken thoughts that linger in us all, as we seek to answer the age old question "Is there a God?"

Aleister Crowley considered AHA! "my greatest magical poem". This profoundly esoteric work highlights the two central experiences of the Path of the Wise -- the Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel and the Crossing of the Abyss. It also marks Crowley's final acceptance of the mysteries of "The Book of the Law", and offers his overview of Initiation and the techniques by which Spiritual Enlightenment may be achieved. This expanded edition features a new analysis by esoteric teacher and author, J Daniel Gunther, who provides Qabalistic insights into the poem's extraordinary depth. James Wasserman, a well-known writer and student of Crowley, has expanded upon the myth of Marsyas and Olympas, while placing AHA! within the context of Crowley's overall life and teaching. Frater Achad, one of Crowley's most important early disciples, wrote an excellent but little-known commentary on AHA! that is included here. This volume also features an essay by Dr Israel Regardie, a primary Crowley biographer and spokesman.

Osho's teachings defy categorisation, covering everything from the individual quest for meaning to the most urgent social and political issues facing society today. His books are not written but are transcribed from audio and video recordings of extemporaneous talks given to international audiences over a period of 35 years. Osho has been described by the Sunday Times in London as one of the "1000 Makers of the 20th Century" and by American author Tom Robbins as "the most dangerous man since Jesus Christ".

Do you have a soul? How can you know? Can science demonstrate its existence? What difference does it make? These are among the difficult and important questions at the heart of "Beyond Death". In the wake of the revolution of quantum physics, an increasing number of scientists have acknowledged the very real possibility of the existence of spirit or soul. The book sets out to prove the existence of spirit and its survival after death, not by appealing to some airy-fairy new age theory or religious dogma, but from empirical evidence gathered by qualified researchers from a number of scientific disciplines. Mind-matter interaction, research into healing and remote viewing, consciousness at the cellular level, near-death experiences and biological evidence of reincarnation are among the many perspectives from which this crucial subject is explored. What does this mean to you? Imagine it is after your "death" and you are looking back on this, your past life. Ask yourself what kind of life from here onward would please you as a spirit? What personal challenges met, fears overcome, actions taken and deeds done would make you proud? By answering this question NOW and moving on through life with that answer always present in your heart, you will have unlocked the secret of spirit and the true purpose of your life.

Most people feel disturbed by the political and social problems we see every day yet, at the same time, feel helpless to solve them. We feel even more disturbed as we and others give up our personal power in futile attempts to solve these problems.

People have become apathetic because the world situation is just too overwhelming. This book will help you to view the world situation in a way that is not overwhelming. It provides ways for you to take back your power for personal growth and social change.

Here is a book that gives hope to these lonely, perplexed kids -- and their parents.

A courageous exploration of the passions of lust, power, betrayal and greed and the psychic need for love, creativity and religion. Using the powerful technique called "dynamic active imagination", you enter the hidden and forbidden realms of the mind as you explore the elegant structures of the Archetypes and world myth, and expand into the realm of collective historical experience.

Stephen Mace explores the magick of using power to deal with the two institutions that seem to do the most to cripple our access to it: the Corporation and the State. Of these, the former is surely more odious than the latter, and infinitely less vital. Most odious of all, of course, is the carnal union of the two, but such depravity may tend toward the decline of both parties, and "Seizing Power" examines the dynamics of this process as well.

Why is astrology both so appealing and so maligned? Orthodox religion proclaims it to be heretical and demonic. Philosophers consider it to be superstitious and uncritical. Scientists object to it as being presumably unverifiable. All these objections, however, are self-serving. This is not to say that such objections should be disregarded, but the mental attitudes from which they emanate ought to be evaluated within the context of the larger debate to which they contribute. Using the controversial figure of "The Wickedest Man in the World" -- Aleister Crowley -- as a focal point, this book provides a tremendous contribution both to the body of available data and to the manner in which such data may be evaluated.
