Book excerpt: From the dawn of time, ruby and sapphire have both attracted and fascinated humans in ways that few other items could.While objects of desire are found throughout the natural world, physical beauty is too often ephemeral.

Download or read book The Case of the Crumbling Crystals written by Pat Morrissey and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2007-12-14 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A science fiction, mystery adventure for the young adult Trina Trianna considered herself a pretty normal 13-year-old. She loved her parents (most of the time), loved her friends (most of the time), studied hard (some of the time) and dreamed about being an astrologer (absolutely all of the time)! In her hometown of Alexandria, Egypt, in the Year 2433, life went on pretty much as it had for centuries. Sure, Trina used a hologram projection of herself to “try on” her clothes to find just the right outfit. And she had her very own robot to tutor her in astrology. But, over all, her life was quite unexciting. That is, until Tony, a ghost from Jupiter, came to visit. Once Tony arrived, things started happening. They discovered a place where the earth seemed to be disintegrating. While trying to uncover the reason, Trina found that she too seemed to be disintegrating. When her mom took her to the doctor, she learned that a very cute — but notoriously stuck up — young aristocrat named Ethan had the same problem she did. While following the trail of the mystery, Trina, Tony and Ethan met a gigantic crystal that talked, flew a jet helicopter into restricted air space, and got tied up in a cave and left for dead. By using astrology to search for clues, they managed to solve the mystery and earn the gratitude of the entire solar system.

Download or read book Stones of the Seven Rays written by Michel Coquet and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-05-11 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The magical and spiritual uses of the seven sacred gemstones--diamond, sapphire, emerald, jasper, topaz, ruby, and amethyst • Explores each sacred gem’s effects on the seven facets of the soul and their corresponding virtues • Reveals their spiritual and therapeutic uses, the meaning of their colors, their ties to the chakras, and their historical use in amulets, talismans, and other magical tools • Outlines the basics of Seven Ray Science and the properties of each of the Seven Rays Taught solely in secret for millennia, the Science of the Seven Rays was introduced outside of the ancient mystery schools of Western and Hindu tradition by some of the great occultists of the late 19th and early 20th century: H. P. Blavatsky, Manly Hall, C. W. Leadbeater, and Alice Bailey. Based on the soul’s seven-faceted nature, the Seven Ray system underlies metaphysical traditions around the world through its connections with the seven musical notes in the scale, the seven days in the week, the seven chakras, the seven colors of the rainbow, and the seven sacred planets. Laying out the key principles behind this spiritual science, Michel Coquet explores the seven sacred gemstones of the Seven Rays--diamond, sapphire, emerald, jasper, topaz, ruby, and amethyst--and shows that not all precious stones have true mystical powers: they must be charged, either naturally or through ritual, with a living deva or angelic presence before they can effect spiritual transformation and physical, mental, and soul healing. Drawing on Hindu, Jewish, pre-Columbian, and Greco-Roman magical traditions with precious stones as well as their use by great initiates of history--including Hildegard von Bingen, Paracelsus, Cornelius Agrippa, Elias Ashmole, Nicholas Flamel, and the Count de Saint Germain--Coquet examines each sacred gem’s effects on the seven facets of the soul as well as their spiritual and therapeutic uses, the meaning of their colors, their influences on the chakras, and their use in amulets, talismans, and other magical tools. Illuminating techniques of invoking spirits into gemstones and reports of the power to enlarge diamonds at will, stones that produce anesthesia, and the use of gem medicines in India, Coquet reveals that while gems can influence our physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, without daily work toward a gem’s corresponding virtue, even a consecrated stone will have no effect, for the most beautiful gems are within.

Download or read book Science Fiction and The Abolition of Man written by Mark J. Boone and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-12-13 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Abolition of Man, C. S. Lewis's masterpiece in ethics and the philosophy of science, warns of the danger of combining modern moral skepticism with the technological pursuit of human desires. The end result is the final destruction of human nature. From Brave New World to Star Trek, from steampunk to starships, science fiction film has considered from nearly every conceivable angle the same nexus of morality, technology, and humanity of which C. S. Lewis wrote. As a result, science fiction film has unintentionally given us stunning depictions of Lewis's terrifying vision of the future. In Science Fiction Film and the Abolition of Man, scholars of religion, philosophy, literature, and film explore the connections between sci-fi film and the three parts of Lewis's book: how sci-fi portrays "Men without Chests" incapable of responding properly to moral good, how it teaches the Tao or "The Way," and how it portrays "The Abolition of Man."
