Predicated on the immemorial core or "first" principles of the
universal perennial philosophy, which finds expression from Lao Tzu
to Ramana Maharshi in the East and from Pythagoras to René Guénon
and Ananda K. Coomaraswamy in the West, The Higher Spiritual
Path details how those on the higher spiritual path must
address and master its requirements. This book is as practical as
it is philosophical --Â or theosophical --Â since it is
based on the specifics of “sacred science,†or spiritual
science, an inextricable component of the perennial philosophy.
Many of the requirements of the higher spiritual path are based on
the truths of this ancient spiritual science, formulated over
millennia by jivanmukti, or liberated beings, who serve as the
teachers of those currently engaged in treading this hieratic path.
The goals of ascending this path are the loftiest; the hierarchical
order of its spiritual teachers is the holiest; and the totality of
its evolutionary and compassionate purpose is the most sacred.

Charles Band's Full Moon Entertainment was the most remarkable
B-movie studio of the 1990s, responsible for a barrage of sci-fi,
fantasy, and horror classics during the last true "golden age" of
the home video era. From Puppetmaster to Trancers and beyond, Full
Moon transformed the VHS experience for fans worldwide, bringing
the inner workings of the movie-making process into the living
room, and in turn creating a ravenous fanbase that remains to this
day. This book tracks the history of the company, from its late
'80s birth among the ruins of the American drive-in through to its
bid to survive in the modern digital world. Featuring rare artwork,
behind-the-scenes photos, and over 60 exclusive interviews with the
cast and crew who helped to create the legendary B-movie studio,
this is an essential read for any cult film fan still lamenting the
death of the "mom 'n pop" video store.
When Dr. Greg Parker's research indicates that the CIA
manipulated the Northridge, California earthquake, he and his
daughter, Sharon follow a trail of clues that indicate a conspiracy
to destroy America's economy. They slowly realize that an explosion
in Jerusalem, a potential earthquake in middle America, and the
devastation of the American economy fit a pattern that is amazingly
parallel to predictions found in the Bible. Soon Greg and Sharon
Parker's race to stop destruction of their country becomes a battle
to save their own lives as well.
The Bobbio Missal is one of the most important and interesting
liturgical books surviving from the early middle ages. It is the
best known example of the Gallican' type of missal, attesting
therefore to the distinctive liturgical practices which were
widespread in Merovingian and Frankish churches during the seventh
and eighth centuries, before these began to tbe replaced by the
Roman practices including use of Gregorian' missals in various
forms during the period of Charlemagne's reforms. In the opinion of
modern palaeographers, the Bobbio Missal was written somewhere in
northern Italy in the mid-eighth century. Although it was long
regarded as a witness to Irish liturgical practice, it is now
considered as essentially Gallican, but incorporating various
prayers of Gelasian origin. Palaeographically the manuscript (now
Paris, Bibliotheque Nationale, lat. 13246) is of great interest,
being written in an idiosyncratic mixture of uncial and minuscule,
by an Italian scribe neither literate nor well-trained. HBS LVIII,

The Henry Bradshaw Society was established in 1890 in commemoration
of Henry Bradshaw, University Librarian in Cambridge and a
distinguished authority on early medieval manuscripts and
liturgies, who died in 1886. The Society was founded 'for the
editing of rare liturgical texts'; its principal focus is on the
Western (Latin) Church and its rites, and on the medieval period in
particular, from the sixth century to the sixteenth (in effect,
from the earliest surviving Christian books until the Reformation).
Liturgy was at the heart of Christian worship, and during the
medieval period the Christian Church was at the heart of Western
society. Study of medieval Christianity in its manifold aspects -
historical, ecclesiastical, spiritual, sociological - inevitably
involves study of its rites, and for that reason Henry Bradshaw
Society publications have become standard source-books for an
understanding of all aspects of the middle ages. Moreover, many of
the Society's publications have been facsimile editions, and these
facsimiles have become cornerstones of the science of palaeography.
