The Secret Teachings of All Ages is perhaps the most comprehensive
and complete esoteric encyclopedia ever written. The sheer scope
and ambition of this book are stunning. In this book Manly P. Hall
has successfully distilled the essence of more arcane subjects than
one would think possible. He covers Rosicrucianism and other secret
societies, alchemy, cryptology, Kabbalah, Tarot, pyramids, the
Zodiac, Pythagorean philosophy, Masonry, gemology, Nicholas
Flammel, the identity of William Shakespeare, The Life and
Teachings of Thoth Hermes Trismegistus, The Qabbalah, The Hiramic
Legend, The Tree of the Sephiroth, and Mystic Christianity. There
are more than 200 illustrations included here (and in the trade
paperback edition) many of which have been omitted from other
publisher's editions of this book. This is essential reading for
anyone wishing to explore esoteric knowledge.
Jana Marx, bekende joernalis soos gesien in Devildorp bestudeer die fenomeen van kultusse.
Sy beantwoord vrae soos:
- watter antieke kultusse daar was
- wat die verskil tussen 'n kerk, 'n sekte, die okkulte en 'n kultus is
- watter tipe mens word in 'n kultus ingetrek
- watter kenmerke word in 'n kultusleier gevind?
Kultusse word in verskillende onderafdelings ingedeel: moord- en gedagtebeheerkultusse, korporatiewe kultusse, sekskultusse en politieke kultusse. Jana bekyk bekende plaaslike en internasionele kultusse binne elkeen van hierdie afdelings. Sy verwys ook na die BITE-model van Dr Steve Hassen sodat gewone mense kan uitwerk of geliefdes in 'n kultus vasgekeer is. Daar is 'n hoofstuk met riglyne oor wat om te doen as jou geliefde in 'n kultus is.
Jy kan alles oor kultusse wat jy nog altyd wou geweet het in hierdie boek vind.
First published in 1915, symbol expert and renowned author Albert
Churchward traces and reveals the history of this very secret
order.
