A step-by-step guide to getting past childhood abuse without
letting anyone off the hook. Every spiritual teacher agrees that
forgiveness is essential and beneficial, but few explain exactly
how to go about it. Reverend Wild does. She is a survivor of
childhood abuse herself, and it is clear she understands the
subtleties and specifics of this kind of trauma. But the system she
teaches could be used by anyone wanting to forgive any wrongdoing.
You may have done a lot of soul-searching and years of therapy, as
well as spent hours in prayer, yet you're still haunted by the
echoes of abuse. Or you may just be starting to face what happened.
No matter what stage you are at, The Art of Forgiveness will help
you make peace with the past and take ownership of your own
happiness.
Simon Mollat woke up in the dunes of Arambol Beach, Goa, India with
an agonizing hangover. The year was 2000 and the apocalypse was
still a figment of collective imagination - the millennium
celebration had lasted Simon for four consecutive months. A more
enlightened soul would have enjoyed the sunrise, but not Simon. He
was being pissed on by a stray dog, and somewhere in the back of
his mind Pink Floyd wandered in and around his aching head. Is
there anybody out there? Once he had been a promising young man
from the land of the midnight sun. Current status? Man on the lam
suffering from depression and aimlessness, a stray dog's pissing
post. His thoughts turned to the stones he'd stuffed in his pocket
during the night, the boat he could easily "borrow" that could take
him away, far into the water. He would slip out of the boat and
dive downward and away from all of his suffering. Something
intervened and took Simon out of his suicidal head and the
recurring Pink Floyd soundtrack; it was something itchy and stuffed
in the neck opening of his t-shirt. It was a balled up piece of
paper with the photograph of a withered Indian man and a message
that read, "Freedom from this 'me'" and signed by someone named
Raman Kavalam. It smelled of incense and made Simon think of sects,
robes, and cultist brainwashing. Simon was by no means a religious
person, he didn't even believe in God. But something compelled him
forward to seek out this Raman Kavalam, something much larger than
himself. And, so begins the odyssey of Simon Mollat's spiritual
awakening. Within the Space of the Moment takes readers on an
unforgettable journey from despair and outer pleasure to inner
peace and the feeling of being intensely alive.
An occult classic Since its first publication in 1908, The
Kybalion, Hermetic Philosophy by Three Initiates, has been in
constant demand by students and investigators of the Secret
Doctrines. It is a modern addition to the body of work devoted to
Hermes Trismegistus, an icon of ancient teachings that reveal the
path to self transformation. In this revised edition, we have
corrected many editorial issues inherent within the original text,
creating a clearer presentation of the book's message: The Seven
Hermetic Principles, or axioms: Principle of Mentalism Principle of
Correspondence Principle of Vibration Principle of Polarity
Principle of Rhythm Principle of Cause and Effect Principle of
Gender These principles complement other Hermetic teachings and
provide a foundation for your own spiritual awakening. As the book
states, "The lips of wisdom are closed, except to the ears of
understanding."
