'When you read Hope Street, you are uplifted, exhilarated, excited at the profound truths that shine through. This radiant book will bring great comfort, healing and hope to all who are blessed by reading it.' Patricia ScanlanThis is the true story of a family with a spiritual gift, which has always lived in the heart of one of the traditional working class communities of the North. Their triumphs and tragedies unfolded in the cobbled streets, working men's cottages, terraced houses and council houses of Horwich, near Manchester.Hope Street North had more than their fair share of loss and heartbreak. A young girl was run over and killed by a horse and cart and another died of diphtheria. There were affairs, a secret pregnancy, an elopement and a double suicide. Every family has its secrets and tragedies, but this family had this unique psychic gift passed down from generation to generation: the women of the family were able to communicate with the Spirit worlds.Hope Street begins with Pamela's own Spiritualist childhood. One of her earliest memories, dating from when she was about five is of watching as Spiritualist friends arrived for one of her mother's sittings. She was a medium and the children would wait expectantly for the deep silence that preceded their mother's trances, and for the different voices of the spirits and other paranormal phenomena that spoke through her. Her father told her how on one occasion a carnation, real to the touch and bejewelled with dew, materialized in mid air. Pamela would see her mother gradually, and starting from her head down, disappeared before her very eyes.Hope Street continues with the saga of Pamela's family. She traces the way Spirit worked through generation after generation, culminating in her own remarkable mother. It was after her mother's death, when Pamela was in the depths of despair, that she found her own spiritual gift. Guided by the spirit of her mother, she finally understood the prophecy and message of hope for humanity that Spirit had been working to bring to the world. Introduction by Patricia Scanlan.

More Messages from the Angels - Preparing to Receive, Verifying and Confirming the Truth (Paperback): Irene Johanson More Messages from the Angels - Preparing to Receive, Verifying and Confirming the Truth (Paperback)
Irene Johanson; Translated by Pauline Wehrle
R296 Discovery Miles 2 960 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

As with her previous work What the Angels Need to Tell Us Now, More Messages from the Angels is divided into two parts. In the first section, Irene Johanson gives valuable advice about the inner preparations necessary to receive angel messages in the proper way. She explains how to distinguish between the different kinds of spirits, and how to deal with information received from metaphysical entities--in particular knowing whether such information is genuine or not. She also gives advice about transforming our life of soul and the forces of thinking, feeling and will. In the second part, Johanson presents more messages and information received from angels through her friend Agnes, an individual who represents a new kind of clairvoyance. Unlike mediumism or channeling, Agnes's method does not entail a dimming of consciousness, but has the character of clarity and wakefulness. The messages received contain critical advice, guidance and insight from the angels to humanity. This time they speak on many contemporary issues, including organ transplants, genetic modification, cloning, "mad cow disease," nuclear energy, evil, catastrophes and disasters (including 9 / 11), abortion, population growth, sudden death, cyanide, AIDS, sexuality, difficult children, fear, psychological warfare, ecumenism, democracy, and human and angelic cooperation.

R827 Discovery Miles 8 270 Ships in 9 - 17 working days

During the course of my quest for truth, knowledge and nature of reality over the last 40 years or so, considerable valuable inner knowledge has been opened to me from numerous and diverse sources, knowledge which I have since been blessed to share with readers of my books, newsletters and websites. When I recently discovered and started to read Science of Being by The Baron Eugene Fersen, originally made available to very few selected, privileged people in the form of a series of twenty seven individual lessons, I knew at once that these are no ordinary texts. It very soon became apparent to me in fact that this is an extremely profound and important collection of wisdom, knowledge and teachings, and without doubt some of the very greatest I have personally ever seen on these most important matters. Science of Being is not only one of the very first texts on The Law of Attraction ever written, if not the first, it is, in my view, one of the most profound and important texts ever written in absolute terms, written by a true Lightbearer for humanity, and which reach far beyond The Law of Attraction to encompass many other Universal Principles.. It also very soon became clear to me that many of the most well known Law of Attraction and Metaphysics authors must, at least to some extent, directly or indirectly have learned from this great teacher of teachers. No other book ever published on The Law of Attraction however goes as deeply or as clearly as Science of Being. It is now my very great pleasure to make available to you this rare, once almost lost collection of twenty seven lessons including exercises, questions and answers in the form of a single powerful book, that all who areblessed and most privileged to read it may profoundly benefit from its valuable and indeed crucial teachings, your life thus being blessed with health, abundance and happiness, as well as further enhancing your own knowledge of the true nature of the Universe, and the Universal Principles, including The Law of Attraction, which infinitely shape our lives and reality.

Catherine Crowe
R1,266 Discovery Miles 12 660 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The novelist and children's author Catherine Crowe (c.1800 1876) published The Night Side of Nature in two volumes in 1848. This lively collection of ghostly sketches and anecdotes was a Victorian best-seller and Crowe's most popular work. Sixteen editions appeared in six years, and it was translated into several European languages. The stories are intertwined with Crowe's own interpretations and commentaries which attack the scepticism of enlightenment thought and orthodox religion. Crowe seeks instead to encourage and re-invigorate a sense of wonder and mystery in life by emphasising the supernatural. The stories in Volume 1 centre on dreams, psychic presentiments, traces, wraiths, doppelgangers, apparitions, and imaginings of the after-life. Crowe's vivid tales, written with great energy and imagination, are classic examples of nineteenth-century spiritualist writing and strongly influenced other authors as well as providing inspiration for later adherents of ghost-seeing and psychic culture.

People From the Other World (Paperback): Henry Steel Olcott People From the Other World (Paperback)
Henry Steel Olcott
R1,272 Discovery Miles 12 720 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The lawyer and journalist Henry Steel Olcott (1832 1907) published People from the Other World in 1875. Part 1 of the work is a careful account of Olcott's 1874 investigations into the famous Eddy brothers of Chittenden, Vermont, and their claimed psychic powers. Part 2 is a report into two Philadelphia mediums who claimed to be able to call up two spirits called John and Katie King. The account includes descriptions of s ances, healings, levitation, teleportation and the famous Compton transfiguration. Olcott, a founding member of the Theosophical Society and its first president, was a pioneer of psychical research. This work, deeply influenced by Helena Blavatsky (1831 1891), who he met at Chittenden, is one of his most popular. It offers an important insight into the nineteenth-century fascination with the occult and is a classic example of a Victorian attempt to approach the supernatural with the rigours of scientific investigation.

Lights and Shadows of Spiritualism (Paperback): Daniel Dunglas Home Lights and Shadows of Spiritualism (Paperback)
Daniel Dunglas Home
R1,265 Discovery Miles 12 650 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Daniel Dunglas Home (1833 1886) was a charismatic medium whose seances were attended by European royalty and eminent Victorians like Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Thrown out by his aunt because of the paranormal events which plagued him since childhood, Home became a 'professional house guest' and medium at the age of 17. During seances he purportedly levitated, handled hot coals and channelled the voices of the dead. This volume, first published in 1877, is an evocative examination of spiritualism which explores the history of the practice via the Greeks, the Romans, and Joan of Arc. Simultaneously attacking fraudulent mediums while celebrating 'true' spiritualist practitioners, this fascinating work details both the criticism and support received by Home and features reproductions of numerous fan letters. Although colourful and impassioned, Home's polemic is written in an amiable style and provides fascinating insights into the life and work of the self-proclaimed 'Grandfather of English Spiritualism'.

Stefania Palmisano
R1,322 Discovery Miles 13 220 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Examining the recent radical re-invention of monastic tradition in the everyday life of New Monastic Communities, Exploring New Monastic Communities considers how, growing up in the wake of Vatican II, new Catholic communities are renewing monastic life by emphasizing the most innovative and disruptive theological aspects which they identify in the Council. Despite freely adopting and adapting their Rule of Life, the new communities do not belong to pre-existing orders or congregations: they are gender-mixed with monks and nuns living under the same roof; they accept lay members whether single, married or as families; they reject enclosure; they often limit collective prayer time in order to increase time for labour, evangelization and voluntary social work; and are actively involved in oecumenical and interreligious dialogue, harbouring thinly-veiled sympathy with oriental religions, from which they sometimes adopt beliefs and practices. Offering unique sociological insights into New Monastic Communities, and shedding light on questions surrounding New Religious Movements more generally, the book asks what 'monastic' means today and whether these communities can still be described as 'monastic'.

R1,267 Discovery Miles 12 670 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

First published in 1888, this biography relates the remarkable life of Scottish-born medium Daniel Dunglas Home (1833 1886). Descended from a long line of reputed seers, Home was easily the most well known and sought-after of the spiritualists of his day. Famous for his ability to levitate and communicate with the deceased, Home carved out an illustrious career for himself, conducting s ances for Napoleon III, Elizabeth Barrett Browning (whose husband Robert lampooned Home as 'Mr Sludge the Medium'), Tolstoy, and Queen Sophia of the Netherlands among others. Written by Home's second wife, Julie de Gloumeline, this book seeks to set the celebrated medium apart from his contemporaries by outlining the truth and purpose behind Home's supernatural exploits. D. D. Home provides a fascinating and personal insight into an enigmatic figure who, in the twenty-five years he worked as a medium, was never exposed as a fraud.

'As gripping as any thriller' New Statesman 'Provocative and fascinating' Daily Mail ____________________________________ Less than 50,000 years ago mankind had no art, no religion, no sophisticated symbolism, no innovative thinking. Then, in a dramatic and electrifying change, described by scientists as "the greatest riddle in human history", all the skills and qualities that we value most highly in ourselves appeared already fully formed, as though bestowed on us by hidden powers. Graham Hancock sets out to investigate this mysterious "before-and-after moment" and to discover the truth about the influences that gave birth to the modern human mind. His quest takes him on a journey of adventure from the stunningly beautiful painted caves of prehistoric France, Spain and Italy to remote rock shelters in the mountains of South Africa where he finds a treasure trove of extraordinary Stone Age art, ending in the depths of the Amazon rainforest, where he drinks the powerful plant hallucinogen Ayahuasca with Indian shamans, whose paintings contain images of "supernatural beings" identical to the animal-human hybrids depicted in prehistoric caves and rock shelters. Could these "supernaturals" be the ancient teachers of mankind? And is human evolution in fact more purposeful and intelligent that we have barely even begun to understand? ____________________________________ 'A welcome exploration and celebration of the mystery inside our skulls' Guardian 'Extraordinary' Daily Express 'Intelligent and articulate . . . his writing is as expert as you would expect from an esteemed international correspondent' Scotsman 'Hancock's most important book . . .

The Darkened Room (Paperback, New edition): Alex Owen The Darkened Room (Paperback, New edition)
Alex Owen
R966 Discovery Miles 9 660 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

A highly original study that examines the central role played by women as mediums, healers, and believers during the golden age of spiritualism in the late Victorian era, "The Darkened Room" is more than a meditation on women mediums--it's an exploration of the era's gender relations.
The hugely popular spiritualist movement, which maintained that women were uniquely qualified to commune with spirits of the dead, offered female mediums a new independence, authority, and potential to undermine conventional class and gender relations in the home and in society.
Using previously unexamined sources and an innovative approach, Alex Owen invokes the Victorian world of darkened seance rooms, theatrical apparitions, and moving episodes of happiness lost and regained. She charts the struggles between spiritualists and the medical and legal establishments over the issue of female mediumship, and provides new insights into the gendered dynamics of Victorian society.

Thomas A Forsthoefel
R1,068 Discovery Miles 10 680 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This title was first published in 2002. This book builds on contemporary discussion of 'mysticism' and religious experience by examining the process and content of 'religious knowing' in classical and modern Advaita. Drawing from the work of William Alston and Alvin Plantinga, Thomas Forsthoefel examines key streams of Advaita with special reference to the conditions, contexts, and scope of epistemic merit in religious experience. Forsthoefel uniquely employs specific analytical categories of contemporary Western epistemologies as heuristics to examine the cognitive dimension of religious experience in Indian Vedanta. Showing the developing nuances in the analysis of religious experience in the thought of Shankara and his immediate disciples (Suresvara and Padmapada) as well as in the teaching of Ramana Maharshi, an understudied but important South Indian saint of the 20th century, this book offers a substantial contribution to studies of Indian philosophy as well as to contemporary philosophy of religion. Using the tools of exegesis and comparative philosophy, Forsthoefel argues for a careful justification of claims following religious experience, even if such claims involve, as they do in the Advaita, a paradoxical 'knowing beyond knowledge'.

Inusual obra que plantea al hombre comun y corriente, los principios generales de "la maxja negra pura" (nerometamaxja), desde sus fundamentos mas primarios.

Dirigido especialmente a quienes husmean este proverbial arte, ya sea con el afan de dedicarse a ello, o al menos, concebir cual es el aparato que yace detras de sus misterios, pese no obstante, haber chocado siempre con los mismos enchiridiones que jamas entienden.

En consecuencia, por el bien de ellos y la cultura; este tratado -propio del campo de la hechiceria-, se reinscribe esnobistamente, proyectado a difuminar sus mas sordidos enigmas, como nadie antes lo hizo. En 7 capitulos, 488 paginas, 102.143 palabras, estan cifradas las claves del conocimiento promedio de la nerometamaxja (nombre tecnico de la maxja negra revisada), cuyos secretos esenciales se ponen al alcance de quien lo quiera...

Aparece, hoy mismo, cuando las aprehensiones moralizantes son aplastadas por la racionalidad gnoseologica de los tiempos, y cuando las persecuciones y la hoguera son vistas como prejuicios del pasado.

Se espera que la ancestral semilla de este disidente oficio, retalle ahora sin acodos, despejando tal vez alguna necesidad espiritual y por el bien del discernimiento humano.

In Lily Dale, New York, the dead don't die. Instead, they flit among the elms and stroll along the streets. According to spiritualists who have ruled this community for five generations, the spirits never go away--and they stay anything but quiet. Every summer twenty thousand guests come to consult the town's mediums in hopes of communicating with dead relatives or catching a glimpse of the future. Weaving past with present, the living with the dead, award-winning journalist and bestselling author Christine Wicker investigates the longings for love and connection that draw visitors to "the Dale," introducing us to a colorful cast of characters along the way--including such famous visitors as Susan B. Anthony, Harry Houdini, and Mae West. Laugh-out-loud funny at times, this honest portrayal shows us that ultimately it doesn't matter what we believe; it is belief itself that can transform us all.

Working with Mystical Experiences in Psychoanalysis - Opening to the Numinous (Paperback): Leslie Stein Working with Mystical Experiences in Psychoanalysis - Opening to the Numinous (Paperback)
Leslie Stein
R1,066 Discovery Miles 10 660 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

A mystical experience, no matter what else, is a subjective occurrence in the psyche. However, when it appears in the psychoanalytic consulting room, its origin, content, and meaning are unknowable. Yet it is there in the room, and it must be addressed. It is not a minor illusion but rather one that requires attention as its occurrence may lead to a profound alteration of consciousness and, as Carl Jung suggests, a cure for neurosis. Leslie Stein interviewed twenty-nine mystics in order to understand the origin, progression, phasing, emotions, and individual variations of a mystical experience in order to make sense of how it should be addressed, the appropriate analytic attitude in the face of a mystery, the way to work with its content, and its psychological meaning. In doing so, he uncovered that there may be specific development markers that create a proclivity to be receptive to such an experience that has clinical significance for psychoanalysis.
