Avant-Garde meditative shamanic noise music to challenge and expand the mind, made by and for people who do not exist. This album in particular was inspired in part through work with the plant Salvia Divinorum and esoteric/occult philosophy.

Avant-Garde meditative shamanic noise music to challenge and expand the mind, made by and for people who do not exist. I crafted this little album over a period of seven years, just for you.

A handsomely re-produced volume with high-quality color images of thought forms -- the actual shapes and colors of thoughts in the subtle matter of which they're formed, as seen by clairvoyants, first published in 1905. Besant and Leadbeater dictated the "thought-forms" to painters who then created the 58 magnificent illustrations contained in the book. This book was a major influence on the artist Hilma Af Klint among many others.
Salvia Divinorum is perhaps the most fascinating, misunderstood, and POWERFUL plant teacher I have ever come across. There is very little published work on the subject, and I found this to be the most accurate in terms of representing what the experience is like. An illuminating and fascinating book.
This is an extraordinary book. Very broad (fitting for a book on a whole kingdom of life), very detailed and learned, and most importantly immediately practical. Probably one of the more important books on natural science ever written. This book is utterly groundbreaking in the scope of it's content and it's aim. This book will blow your mind. You will never look at mushrooms the same way ever again.
An abolutely delightful philosphical novella from the master Calvino.
"A bit nearsighted, absent minded, introverted, he does not seem to belong temperamentally to that human type generally called an observer. And yet it has always happened that certain things – a stone wall, a seashell, a leaf, a teapot – present themselves to him as if asking him for a minute and prolonged attention: he starts observing them almost unawares and his gaze begins to run over all the details, and is then unable to detach itself."
A classic since 1928, this masterly encyclopedia of ancient mythology, ritual, symbolism, and the arcane mysteries of the ages is available for the first time in a compact "reader's edition." Like no other book of the twentieth century, Manly P. Hall's legendary The Secret Teachings of All Ages is a codex to the ancient occult and esoteric traditions of the world. Students of hidden wisdom, ancient symbols, and arcane practices treasure Hall's magnum opus above all other works.
