Download or read book The Sacred Sex Rites of Ishtar written by Ishtar Dingir and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-06-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about Sovereignty. It's about the superior intelligence and self empowerment which comes from interacting with beings which inhabit a parallel universe to this one - another dimension - from whom man has traditionally gained his wisdom about his place and purpose on Earth and in the cosmos. In ancient times, the ability to tap into this superior wisdom was transmitted to kings and pharaohs by one who was in touch with these extra-dimensional beings or lifeforms, who are also known as the spirits. Sovereignty comes from the spirits of the land, otherwise known as the Fae, the Gentry, the Sidhe or the Faeries. These spirits are like Man, but are of an Elder and wiser race which inhabits a timeless zone within the parallel dimensions. These days, only children can see them, who haven't yet had that perceptivity educated and ridiculed out of them. Shamans and high priestesses in Neolithic times were in touch with these spirits of the land, and so were able to transmit their wisdom to the king or pharaoh in sacred sex rites during his coronation night. This became known as the Sovereignty because it fired up the king's higher brain centres, giving him a superior intelligence and thus the ability and the right to reign. Our ancestors have left us magical keys in their orally passed on myths which, like messages in a bottle, can help us find the way to spark up that wisdom again, in ourselves. As a shaman and mythologist, the author Ishtar Babilu Dingir is regularly in communion with the spirits of the land where she lives in Glastonbury, Somerset. In this book, she has laid out the way for the ordinary person to regain their Sovereignty, which is their birthright, through shamanic sexual practises and also by learning to visit these other dimensions on the inner planes. First, she lays the foundation stone for the teaching by showing the evidence - from ancient Greece, Egypt, Crete, India, Sumer and Babylon - that sacred sex was an integral part of the Kingship rites, and the literary evidence that the spirits were present in the lovemaking. She also explains about our earlier ancestors' understanding about the Faery Marriage, and what she believes is the original meaning of the Holy Grael, tracing it back to the Neanderthals about 45,000 years ago. The reader then learns how to perform shamanic sex themselves, to fire up their own superior intelligence. Finally, Ishtar reveals more about her own relationship with the local spirits of the land, so that others may become inspired to explore their own locality and thus begin their quest towards higher brain development and self-empowerment - to Sovereignty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the superior intelligence and self empowerment which comes from interacting with beings that inhabit a parallel universe to this one, from whom man has traditionally gained his knowledge about his place and purpose on Earth and in the cosmos. In ancient times, the ability to tap into this superior wisdom was transmitted to kings and pharaohs upon their coronation by one who was in touch with these extra-dimensional beings or life-forms, which are also known as spirits of the land. Shamans and high priestesses, since at least Neolithic times, were in communication with these spirits and so they were able to transmit their wisdom to the ruler or monarch during sacred sex rites. These shamanic practices became known as Sovereignty rites because they created a force that fired up the king's higher brain centres, giving him a superior intelligence and thus the ability and the right to reign, with the crown he wore on his head merely a symbol of his enlightened inner crown. As a shaman and mythologist, Annie Dieu-Le-Veut is regularly in communion with the spirits of the land where she lives in Glastonbury, Somerset, in the UK. In this book, she has laid out the way for the ordinary person to benefit from experiencing shamanic sexual practises by visiting other dimensions on the inner planes.In Part 1, she helps you to build your foundation stone upon which you will erect the temple of your understanding about the ancient Mystery Teachings, which were based on a sort of Earth magic known as the Alchemical Marriage, the Faery Marriage, or the Marriage of the Sun and the Moon. She lays out historical and mythological evidence from all over the world that sacred sex was an integral part of the Kingship rites that bequeathed wisdom on the initiate. And you will discover the original meaning of the Holy Grael, which can be traced back to the ritual centres of the Neanderthals of about 45,000 years ago.In Part II, you will go on to learn how to practise these shamanic rites yourself, through simple steps that take you into an enchanted world of spirits, magicians and Grailkeepers. These will enable you to fire up your own superior intelligence to enrich your own life and, if you should so choose, contribute to the work of the Sovereignty of your own land. Annie is also the author several popular esoteric books such as "The Bright World of Gods", "The Grail Mysteries", "Stories in the Stars" and "Stories in the Summerlands."

Download or read book Psychomagic written by Alejandro Jodorowsky and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-06-18 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A healing path using the power of dreams, theater, poetry, and shamanism • Shows how psychological realizations can cause true transformation when manifested by concrete poetic acts • Includes many examples of the surreal but successful actions Jodorowsky has prescribed to those seeking his help While living in Mexico, Alejandro Jodorowsky became familiar with the colorful and effective cures provided by folk healers. He realized that it is easier for the unconscious to understand the language of dreams than that of rationality. Illness can even be seen as a physical dream that reveals unresolved emotional and psychological problems. Psychomagic presents the shamanic and genealogical principles Jodorowsky discovered to create a healing therapy that could use the powers of dreams, art, and theater to empower individuals to heal wounds that in some cases had traveled through generations. The concrete and often surreal poetic actions Jodorowsky employs are part of an elaborate strategy intended to break apart the dysfunctional persona with whom the patient identifies in order to connect with a deeper self. That is when true transformation can manifest. For a young man who complained that he lived only in his head and was unable to grab hold of reality and advance toward the financial autonomy he desired, Jodorowsky gave the prescription to paste two gold coins to the soles of his shoes so that all day he would be walking on gold. A judge whose vanity was ruling his every move was given the task of dressing like a tramp and begging outside one of the fashionable restaurants he loved to frequent while pulling glass doll eyes out of his pockets. The lesson for him was that if a tramp can fill his pockets with eyeballs, then they must be of no value, and thus the eyes of others should have no bearing on who you are and what you do. Taking his patients directly at their words, Jodorowsky takes the same elements associated with a negative emotional charge and recasts them in an action that will make them positive and enable them to pay the psychological debts hindering their lives.

Download or read book Goddesses in Everywoman written by Jean Shinoda Bolen, M.D. and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classic work of female psychology that uses seven archetypcal goddesses as a way of describing behavior patterns and personality traits is being introduced to the next generation of readers with a new introduction by the author. Psychoanalyst Jean Bolen's career soared in the early 1980s when Goddesses in Everywoman was published. Thousands of women readers became fascinated with identifying their own inner goddesses and using these archetypes to guide themselves to greater self–esteem, creativity, and happiness. Bolen's radical idea was that just as women used to be unconscious of the powerful effects that cultural stereotypes had on them, they were also unconscious of powerful archetypal forces within them that influence what they do and how they feel, and which account for major differences among them. Bolen believes that an understanding of these inner patterns and their interrelationships offers reassuring, true–to–life alternatives that take women far beyond such restrictive dichotomies as masculine/feminine, mother/lover, careerist/housewife. And she demonstrates in this book how understanding them can provide the key to self–knowledge and wholeness. Dr. Bolen introduced these patterns in the guise of seven archetypal goddesses, or personality types, with whom all women could identify, from the autonomous Artemis and the cool Athena to the nurturing Demeter and the creative Aphrodite, and explains how to decide which to cultivate and which to overcome, and how to tap the power of these enduring archetypes to become a better "heroine" in one's own life story.

Book excerpt: Now on Netflix as a 4-part documentary series! “Pollan keeps you turning the pages . . . cleareyed and assured.” —New York Times A #1 New York Times Bestseller, New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018, and New York Times Notable Book A brilliant and brave investigation into the medical and scientific revolution taking place around psychedelic drugs--and the spellbinding story of his own life-changing psychedelic experiences When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third. Thus began a singular adventure into various altered states of consciousness, along with a dive deep into both the latest brain science and the thriving underground community of psychedelic therapists. Pollan sifts the historical record to separate the truth about these mysterious drugs from the myths that have surrounded them since the 1960s, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists inadvertently catalyzed a powerful backlash against what was then a promising field of research. A unique and elegant blend of science, memoir, travel writing, history, and medicine, How to Change Your Mind is a triumph of participatory journalism. By turns dazzling and edifying, it is the gripping account of a journey to an exciting and unexpected new frontier in our understanding of the mind, the self, and our place in the world. The true subject of Pollan's "mental travelogue" is not just psychedelic drugs but also the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both suffering and joy, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.

Download or read book In the Realm of the Diamond Queen written by Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this highly original and much-anticipated ethnography, Anna Tsing challenges not only anthropologists and feminists but all those who study culture to reconsider some of their dearest assumptions. By choosing to locate her study among Meratus Dayaks, a marginal and marginalized group in the deep rainforest of South Kalimantan, Indonesia, Tsing deliberately sets into motion the familiar and stubborn urban fantasies of self and other. Unusual encounters with her remarkably creative and unconventional Meratus friends and teachers, however, provide the opportunity to rethink notions of tradition, community, culture, power, and gender--and the doing of anthropology. Tsing's masterful weaving of ethnography and theory, as well as her humor and lucidity, allow for an extraordinary reading experience for students, scholars, and anyone interested in the complexities of culture. Engaging Meratus in wider conversations involving Indonesian bureaucrats, family planners, experts in international development, Javanese soldiers, American and French feminists, Asian-Americans, right-to-life advocates, and Western intellectuals, Tsing looks not for consensus and coherence in Meratus culture but rather allows individual Meratus men and women to return our gaze. Bearing the fruit from the lively contemporary conversations between anthropology and cultural studies, In the Realm of the Diamond Queen will prove to be a model for thinking and writing about gender, power, and the politics of identity.

Download or read book An Apartment on Uranus written by Paul B. Preciado and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “dissident of the gender-sex binary system” reflects on gender transitioning and political and cultural transitions in technoscientific capitalism. Uranus, the frozen giant, is the coldest planet in the solar system as well as a deity in Greek mythology. It is also the inspiration for uranism, a concept coined by the writer Karl Heinrich Ulrich in 1864 to define the “third sex” and the rights of those who “love differently.” Following Ulrich, Paul B. Preciado dreams of an apartment on Uranus where he might live beyond existing power, gender and racial strictures invented by modernity. “My trans condition is a new form of uranism,” he writes. “I am not a man. I am not a woman. I am not heterosexual. I am not homosexual. I am not bisexual. I am a dissident of the gender-sex binary system. I am the multiplicity of the cosmos trapped in a binary political and epistemological system, shouting in front of you. I am a uranist confined inside the limits of technoscientific capitalism.” This book recounts Preciado's transformation from Beatriz into Paul B., but it is not only an account of gender transitioning. Preciado also considers political, cultural, and sexual transition, reflecting on issues that range from the rise of neo-fascism in Europe to the technological appropriation of the uterus, from the harassment of trans children to the role museums might play in the cultural revolution to come. An Apartment on Uranus is a bold, transgressive, and necessary book.
