Download or read book Esoteric Dictionary written by Christine A. Hale and published by Innercircle Pub. This book was released on 2007-08-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Esoteric Dictionary is a small, succinct volume of mostly common words with uncommon understandings designed to bring insights to the reader. This book can be a mental maze for those who like distinct, linear avenues of thought and belief systems; and, simultaneously a map - for divine fools who trip along paths fearlessly and unwittingly - musing on the words, and allowing a turn of mind to put them in another part of the landscape. One may begin at Angels and end with Zero, or begin with Red Herrings and finish at Destiny - it makes no difference, for this is a map/maze which readers create in their own mindscape. There is no beginning and no end, changing form and dimension in the mind's eye. Mental travelers may find some areas of the book not relevant to their map. For those creating a maze, paragraphs may appear as confusing and paradoxical dead-ends. Beware of the lurking Minotaur within the mind! The Esoteric Dictionary is easy to read, sophisticated, yet with an underlying humor that clarifies the readers' understanding of what would normally be complex esoteric concepts. It is an ideal gift book, and appeals to those that are not necessarily interested in esoteric concepts, but in life's various perspectives. One needs no background knowledge of metaphysics to understand the ideas presented in this book. Read More at www.innercirclepublishing.com
