The Christian world knows that certain things in the Bible are symbols of Spiritual things. For instance, it is known that the land of Canaan stands for a heavenly state of Hie. But it has not been known that the whole Bible, in every least part, is symbolic of spiritual things. Every person, place and thing, every historical event, ritual of worship, yea, every word of both the Old and New Testaments, contains a deeper spiritual sense or meaning. This deeper, spiritual sense involves and concerns solely the Lord Jesus Christ, His Divinely Human things of Love and Faith, and the manner in which these things of Love and Faith are received by men, in their regeneration. Presented here are lectures on the symbolic character of the sacred scripture to aid in a greater understanding and deepening of faith.
The Mahabharata contains virtually all the lore and legend of the Classical Hindu Tradition – which is also, in typical Hindu defiance of simple-minded historicity – very much a living tradition. Here are the great creation stories – Manu”s flood, the churning of the milk ocean, the descent of the Ganges. Here are the favorite myths and fairy tales. Here are the jokes. Here are the codes of law – moral, ethical, natural. One of the best things about the Mahabharata is its wonderful richness of episode and detail.
The precepts of Hermetic philosophy remained shrouded in secrecy for more than 2,000 years, clouded by obscure language and dense allegories. This concise guide offers a modern interpretation of the doctrine, distilling its teachings with seven compelling principles that can be applied to self-development in daily life. This is the quintessential primer for anyone interested in Hermetics; it cannot be recommended highly enough. The Kybalion, originally published in 1912, is a short volume that presents, with commentary, the basic Hermetic principles. The author(s) of the book are anonymous.
The use of the cards is… for the higher uses of the imagination in the mystic oracles of the soul. In this department the true mode of their application is reserved by certain sanctuaries of adeptship; and if for the purposes of the present review it were assumed that I- whose identity has been concealed for many years of occult life under the name of Grand Orient- hold any place or office in these Secret Temples, it must be obvious that I could not- supposing that I had even the wish- betray their mysteries. But as one who has followed in many departments of research the science of the soul and her different paths of light, I have found other mysteries which can be attached to the Tarot cards, and these- if they are followed faithfully- will open many secrets to those who have the needful gifts of intuition, or sight within.
Prior to 1920, Paul Foster Case published a series of articles in Word Magazine (now defunct), dealing with the Tarot, and titled “Secret Doctrine of the Tarot.” Provided for you is the entire series in one .pdf document.
Where did God come from? What do the bible stories really tell us? Who or what was Jesus Christ? This book challenges everything we think we know about the nature of religion: The ancient fertility cult at the heart of Christianity; The living power of cultic rites and symbols; The sacred mushroom as the emblem and embodiment of divinity; The secret meaning of biblical myths; and The language of religion that links us to our ancestors The Sacred Mushroom and the Cross sets out John Allegro’s quest through a family tree of languages to find the truth about where Christianity came from.
Most of us do not realize what an important part symbolism plays in our life. The expression of religious and philosophical ideas through symbols is not an art peculiar to Hinduism. It has been practised since times immemorial in many parts of the world but perhaps it has never been developed to such a degree or practised on such a wide scale as in Hinduism. This is an introduction to Hindu symbolism.
