Kali Kaula is a practical and experiential journey through the land
of living magickal art that is Tantra, guided by the incisive,
inspired and multi-talented hands of Jan Fries. By stripping away
the fantasies and exploring the roots, flowers and fruits of
Tantra, the author provides an outstandingly effective and coherent
manual of practices. Acknowledging the huge diversity of Tantric
material produced over the centuries, Jan Fries draws on several
decades of research and experience and focuses on the early
traditions of Kula, Kaula and Krama, and the result is this
inimitable work which shines with the light of possibility. Unique
in style and content, this book is more than a manual of tantric
magick, it is a guide to the exploration of the inner soul. It
contains the most lucid discussions of how to achieve liberation in
the company of numerous Indian goddesses and gods, each of whom
brings their own lessons and gifts to the dedicated seeker. It is
also an eloquent introduction to the mysteries of the great goddess
Kali, providing numerous views of her manifold nature, and showing
the immense but hidden role played throughout history by women in
the development and dissemination of tantric practices and
beliefs.Jan Fries explores the spectrum of techniques from mudra to
mantra, pranayama to puja, from kundalini arousal to purification
to sexual rites, and makes them both accessible and relevant,
translating them out of the Twilight Language of old texts and
setting them in the context of both personal transformation and the
historical evolution of traditions. The web of connections between
Tantra and Chinese Alchemy and Taoism are explored as the author
weaves together many of the previously disparate strands of
philosophies and practices. This book challenges the reader to
dream, delight, and develop, and provides an illustrated guidebook
on how to do so. Bliss awaits those who dare.

A conclusive understanding of reality remains elusive despite
millennia-long efforts to uncover it. In The Kabbalah Method,
renowned Kabbalist Rav Berg looks to the original spiritual wisdom
for answers. This illuminating book, based on decades of study,
takes readers on a journey that begins before the universe came
into existence, in the infinite, endless realm of total fulfilment
and perfection. By understanding the microcosm that is within
everyone, says Berg, it is possible to connect with the macrocosm
that is the infinite power of the universe, thereby taking that
power into oneself and using it to find new meaning in being alive.
This book is addressed to seekers on all levels who want to begin
or continue the journey toward deeper understanding. Using the
Kabbalistic principles explained here, readers acquire a new sense
of self that can transform their inner and outer lives.
The purpose of this book is not the philosophic enunciation or a
special doctrine, is rather to give to the student an
interpretation of the truth, which worth him to reconcile many
topics of the unrevealed information, already acquired, but
apparently, conflicting and paradoxical.

This second book of the Real Magic series continues to explore the
ancient Hermetic Teachings as "A mental art---the art of using
consciousness itself as the tool for creating changes in
consciousness." What does the Hermetic axiom, "as above; so below"
really mean? The relationship between macrocosm (above) and
microcosm (below) is the key to the Hermetic Teachings. Macrocosm
refers to the Eternal Reality of Light; the realm of God. Microcosm

existence and human ego .The core of the Hermetic Teachings for
centuries has been focused on transforming the fragmented body of
Light in human consciousness and uniting below with above.
