This book was released on 2016-07-09 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The indigenous peoples of the Americas have widespread beliefs related to personal guardian spirits. Natives believe that for any success in life there must be protection by a supernatural power. And, in this, they are absolutely correct. The Natives deified guardian spirits since ancient times; and, as it turned out, not in vain because they are directly related to people, to their psyche. All the guardian spirits of the ancient Natives were part of nature. The Natives made animals, plants and so forth their totems, and not in vain, as they really gave people real power and real super abilities, made them powerful, invincible, were able to prevent diseases and heal, as well as “avert troubles.” Beliefs of the ancient Natives were true: kind guardian spirits exist. And, it has been discovered that the relation between natural images and the human psyche is much stronger than it is currently thought. Scientists have found an ancient book, which is much older than the Bible and other sacred books. According to some researchers, it appeared in the 20th century BC. This book has been decrypted in the 80s of the 20th century in Russia by the researcher Andrey Davydov. It is nothing more than a description of 293 models of the human psyche, which are recorded by natural images. And, these images are very similar to those that ancient Natives worshiped. All these images are objects of nature: various plants and animals, luminaries like the sun and the moon, rivers, lakes, swamps, rocks, minerals, metals and so on. Among them there are deities, spirits, and chimeras. Natural images of psyche (soul) cardinally differentiate one person from another, even though every person’s body is designed in the same way. They completely determine a person’s character, habits, life algorithms, preferences, likes, aspirations, desires, and any actions; in other words, by nature every human is original. Any person can get incredible strength and might, get healing, help from personal guardian spirits, which every person has. But, since people do not know their natural images, they are forced to invent artificial images or borrow them from culture, in order to have some kind of basis for existence and functioning. However, inventing artificial images is extremely harmful and dangerous, and also meaningless. Artificial images block human ability, and make a person worthless, weak, helpless, unlucky, and very unhappy. He suffers one defeat after another. They also make people primitive, alike, and unoriginal. Any person can buy information about his/her natural image or images (because each person has not just one, but many, using the language of the ancient Natives, “guardian spirits”). Most of these images are unknown in this civilization. A person can purchase information about one of his/her images, and then go to any artist, a designer who will draw this image. Anyone can use this drawing as they please. For example: for an amulet,a tattoo, interior design (paintings, posters, colors, household items, etc.), as well as for the design of clothes, hairstyles, jewelry, accessories, cars and so on.
Download or read book Chapter 3 Archetype Semantics How It Corresponds To The Concept Of An Image How Archetypal Are Images written by Andrey Davydov and published by HPA Press. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An image is archetypal only when it is an individual value, which through natural analogs allows a person to learn about himself, obtain information about his individual qualities recorded in the individual structure of psyche, which ultimately allows a person to legalize his own innate qualities. The authors reason that logically an archetype in its traditional consideration cannot be that prototype (preimage), which, as an initial idea, determines the individual human psyche because by definition it belongs to culture—it is its artifact. Consequently, according to existing semantics, an archetype can be anything except an archetype as an idea. This scientific paper examines whether semantics of an archetype in its traditional sense corresponds to the concept of “an image” if an image is considered in terms of “a copy”, ”a duplicate”; can an archetype of culture be seriously considered as something that directly forms individual human psyche, as a structure that appeared long before symbolism? The authors think that not every image is archetypal because not every image is equal to prototype (preimage), as an initial idea corresponding to the concept of “an archetype.” An image is archetypal only when it is an individual value, which, through natural analogues, allows a person to learn about his own self and learn about his individual qualities, recorded in the individual structure of psyche, which, as a result, provides a person with a possibility to legalize his own innate qualities.

Book excerpt: ANTI-HOROSCOPE: HUMAN “SOFTWARE” (Series of 12 books) Do you know that people born on July 6 leap years or July 7 common years are not only "windsurfers," who are always on the crest of a fashionable and stylish wave, but also that within the circle of loved ones they are "walking disasters?" Also, they are primitive “party people” with vulgar attempts at originality and erudition in a shiny wrapper... Or, do you know that, for example, once those people, who were born on July 10th of leap years or July 11th of common years choose a deity (personified or not)—they not only regularly make various sacrifices (all the way to the very fact of their existence), but also are ready to "put on the altar" of their beliefs and hobbies anyone, even the closest person? Hence the question: are you sure that you know people, whom you think you know as your own self? Yes, of course, you know them, if we take word-play into account. You really do know them, like you know yourself—that is: just as bad! You know your own and other people's masks and roles, but that is all. You do not believe this? Then, open this book and see for yourself! This book is for those people, who are fed up with "horoscopism," who are tired of listening to nonsense about themselves and other people from psychologists or their "all-knowing" relatives, friends and acquaintances. It will help you save not just some time in your life, but your whole life because otherwise you will spend your entire life on something that is a priori impossible. And, it is impossible not because you are idiots, but because Homo sapiens cannot fully know themselves and other people without an external (and, most importantly, objective) source. Perhaps that is the reason why humanity was left "factory instructions" to each one of us—the Catalog of Human Population. Yes, that is right! There exists the Catalog of Human Population, which you can open and find out everything about any person you are interested in (including yourself)! Information about people presented in this book (and in other eleven books in the series titled Anti-Horoscope: Human "Software") is from there, and not from your favorite horoscope.

Book excerpt: ANTI-HOROSCOPE: HUMAN “SOFTWARE” (Series of 12 books) Did you know that those people, who were born on October 5th of leap years or October 6th of common years are not only people-accumulators in the broadest sense of the word and natural hoarders, but also they can accumulate so many negative emotions towards someone that no apologies or pleas for forgiveness will help?.. Or, did you know that those people, who were born on October 7th of leap years ор October 8th of common years are not only authoritarian individuals, who are strong, active, possess formidable grace, ambitious, eager to measure strength, subdue, control everything and everyone, but also for the sake of achieving their goals are ready to become werewolves (they can instantly change their appearance)? Hence the question: are you sure that you know people, whom you think you know as your own self? Yes, of course, you know them, if we take word-play into account.

Download or read book How Goddesses Are Turned Into Logs written by Andrey Davydov and published by HPA Press. This book was released on 2014-08-27 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every woman considers herself an individual. In vain, as regardless of race, ethnicity, profession and so on, no woman is an individual. Every woman lives as man programmed her to live, as it is convenient for him, as he wants her to. Women do not even suspect who produces images for what they consider their "Self," and why. By studying the history of world culture (literature, pictorial art, architecture, music, science, etc.), it is easy to trace that men usurped everything that had to do with images, as ideas for creation of anything. And, from time immemorial, women were left with a role of stupid consumers, and performers, and it was made sure that women think that they (women) are creators too. But, women did not participate in the birth of any product, which begins with a sketch, and in turn a sketch begins with an idea, and an idea begins with an image. Yes, women weaved, embroidered, painted cloth, and sometimes sewed. But, based on sketches made by whom? Based on sketches and patterns created by men. The essence of this process is to forbid women from creating images, and under any excuse to never allow women to do it, ever. Excuses used are from rudest and degenerative ("What are you trying to do, you fool? Go make me a sandwich instead," or "Do you not hear your baby crying?”), to the most romantic and poetic ("You are my muse, just be near, inspire me, you are so beautiful!"). Men’s intent is simple: to have total control over the psyche and the physiology of any woman because an image is the basis of functioning of any person. Providing an image to a woman ensures that she will live and function strictly according to this image. Also, an image is the basis for control of any person, as well as the basis of knowledge about her/him. Men create images. Therefore, they know exactly what image is behind this or that behavior of a woman. In other words, they know how she will think, act, present herself, what she will want, strive for and seek (from men as well). So, a woman does not even suspect that she is like an open book for any man, even if he sees her for the first time. But, women are sure that images that they use (including for construction of their "Self-Image," that they consider their individuality) are a secret. Borrowing images that were made up by men from cultural sources, and using them to form her personality, her way of life, any woman strongly believes in her unrepeatability, originality, and uncognizability. What do you think, who gave women this assurance, and why? In other words, men achieved what they wanted: from potential goddesses, women were made into logs, a resource, a consumable material from which a man can make whatever he likes. Men use women for all and any of their needs. Today, women are allowed everything, even to pretend that they create images too. Only women are not aware that they make their creations solely on the basis of those artificial images, which have already been thought up by men, and have been put into women for centuries, from generation to generation, in the process of "domestication." Women are celebrating victory, but none of them wonder why, for example, a couple of centuries ago there were no women filmmakers, litterateurs, painters, scientists or politicians? Or, why in the history of humans their percentage ratio is so low? Or, how many prime ministers there were before Margaret Thatcher and what was their gender? Or, in what century there was the first female president? And so on. Even a quick historical review, readily available statistics make it clear that women are allowed only into already constructed and functioning system built by men. And, women are allowed to act only based on and within images that the system dictates. Women lost the "war between the sexes." Since the time of birth women are being made into logs with legs spread wide, as an indication of their main purpose—to participate in the reproduction of the human race, and be pleasant toys in the hands of men. Most important is to not forget to tell women, who "love through their ears," that they are wonderful, priceless, how much men love them and depend on them. Long ago women were programmed to believe in any nonsense, instead of seeing and analyzing facts (as well as history).
Download or read book Homo Sapiens Are Bio Robots written by Olga Skorbatyuk and published by HPA Press. This book was released on 2015-08-20 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back in the 80s of the XX century, researcher Andrey Davydov decrypted one of the most ancient sources preserved in this civilization—Shan Hai Jing. This ancient Chinese monument turned out to be the Catalog of human population; meaning—a collection of detailed descriptions of 293 subtypes of the biological type Homo sapiens. This Catalog contains information about each person who lived, lives or will live in the future on planet Earth. Information about the subtype structure is implanted in the form of a program in the unconscious of a person from birth, and this program determines all of his life: his/her personal qualities and character properties, algorithms of life and functioning, hidden motivational spring, abilities, talents, preferences, inclinations, etc. Natural subtype program is that what is called "psyche", "soul." In addition to a program, Homo sapiens, as a biosystem programmed by nature, has modes of self-regulation and regulation (control from the outside). For colleagues from the scientific environment we are offering our definition of what psyche of Homo sapiens and the Catalog of human population are: "The Catalog of human population is a description of a human as a type by subtype structures. Subtype structure (“psyche”, “soul”) is a combination of individual archetypes, recorded at the genetic level (principle). Expressions and interaction of subtype structures in manipulation modes and phenological algorithms are described with adjustments for gender, age and cultural differences. Information is recorded on six factors." Programs and manipulation modes of each subtype differ from one another. For this reason, people differ from each other by internal characteristics, and individual manipulation scenarios are necessary for each person. Homo sapiens is a living system, which, as it turned out, exists and functions strictly on the basis of a natural program implanted from birth, and from this it was concluded that a human is a bio-robot. This is confirmed by that knowledge of the natural individual program and manipulation modes of a person from Shan Hai Jing allows uncovering absolutely everything about this person and making him/her 100% controllable. You might ask: if the Catalog of human population is such a serious scientific discovery, then why it is not being talked about on television, why it is not being mentioned in newspapers, why the scientific world keeps silent and the Internet is packed with unintelligible nonsense about it? If you asked this question, then it means that you are very poorly informed about how the society in which you live is arranged and functions. Since if you knew a little more about society, then you would have immediately understood that the discovery of the Catalog of human population completely destroys not only many scientific dogmas (in biology, anthropology, psychology, sociology, etc.), but also a huge number of public institutions, professions (including very high-profit), as they simply become no longer needed. For this reason it is not a sin not only to keep silent about the scientific discovery, but also to sign a death sentence instead of awarding the Nobel Prize. Essentially, this is what was done and details about this are available in the 5th book of this series. Since not only "powerful people" do not care about you personally and the masses in general, but also even doctors, who had only one question after learning about this discovery: "If all people will be healthy, then who will need us?" Therefore, do not waste your time looking for positive feedback about us in any sources for the masses. Maybe instead it makes sense to spend your time getting answers to questions like "Who am I?", "What am I like?", "What is the meaning of my life?", "How should I live?" not from your own or other people's fantasies, as usual, but from the ancient source, which existed for tens of thousands or maybe even millions of years? No one in this world will take care of you. A human in this civilization is just a resource for someone else's gain. Now each person got a chance to make a choice: should he personally continue being a resource or not. However, these are not our difficulties.
Download or read book Guism Psychical Mutations Of Homo Sapiens written by Andrey Davydov and published by HPA Press. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gui/guism do not belong to categories of phenomena, special occurrences, rare facts, and cannot be attributed to someone's subjective understanding because it is a universal occurrence available for wide observation. In modern culture, gui are usually called by words "human", "people." Mutations in the form of guism have a psychical pathogenesis, pathological changes. This Metaphorical Dictionary was created on the basis of the proto-language that we found. The proto-language, or as it is also called the world language, is the language of images. It is the Chinese language that is this world language, the proto-human language. The combination of images in the Chinese language coupled with its one hundred percent preservation thanks to cultural traditions of the Chinese people, which no other nation in the world has, for multiple decades allow us to turn to Chinese hieroglyphics as the proto-language, in which true meaning of any word can be found. Why does humanity need the Metaphorical Dictionary and is it needed at all? Answers to these questions lie on the surface, as no one will deny that communication problems between people in this civilization exist. Moreover, they are so serious and neglected that in fact there is much more understanding even between representatives of the animal kingdom, who are much more primitive compared to Homo sapiens. Each person attributes his own meaning to any word; as for universal meanings—there are none. Our Metaphorical Dictionary easily solves any communication problems, or rather—it eliminates them altogether since this Dictionary is not just a collection of words and their meanings: behind every concept under consideration is an image, a picture. Proto-language in the face of Chinese hieroglyphics not only returns true essence and meanings of basic philosophical concepts, which exist in this civilization to all of us, but also, through understanding, turns them into keys (or "drivers," whatever is preferable). These are drivers to society and its use, which very well can and should replace society’s use of all of us. Study of all these, as we called them, "drivers" as certain management buttons gives us all not only a more complete understanding of social processes taking place around us, but also on the basis of this understanding, allows us to do more in this life (and not for society, but first of all for ourselves). Recipes obtained from the proto-language, which we called "drivers," turn society— violator-exploiter into society—free-supermarket, where you come to take what you need and do not have to pay for it with your self-identification, freedom, health, and so on. These recipes are universal and work for absolutely anyone, who has them and uses them on practice. Try them! After all, there is nothing better than good theory, which can be successfully applied in everyday life. Would you agree?
Download or read book 21 Female Clich s written by Andrey Davydov and published by HPA Press. This book was released on 2016-07-12 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topic of this book is Female Clichés based on a new scientific direction called Non-Traditional Psychoanalysis. It legalizes some of the subconscious female secrets. Female Clichés are keys to people and situations. All women should learn how to use all 21 Female Clichés professionally. The book is devoted to new principles of female psychology. It is based on a new scientific direction called Non-Traditional Psychoanalysis. The information presents some of the results of scientific research and Non-Traditional Psychoanalysis led by the Special Scientific Info-Analytical Laboratory—Catalog of Human Souls. The laboratory studies the ancient Chinese manuscript called Shan Hai Jing, where structures of 293 human subtypes are described in great detail. This book legalizes one of the subconscious female secrets discovered by the laboratory. As you may already know from our other books and informational materials, a woman has created and arranged this society. There is also another interesting fact that was found: a woman has once created 21 clichés for herself to use. Until now no one in psychology ever considered so many clichés. So the question is: why did women create these clichés? Well, this is another one of female secrets that is no longer a secret! The thing is that women use clichés as management tools. So, from this book you will learn about these female clichés as a powerful weapon for survival, as well as seduction and conquest of men.

Download or read book Telegraphies written by Kay Yandell and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-11-09 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Telegraphies explores literatures envisioning the literary, societal, even the perceived metaphysical effects of various cultures' telecommunications technologies, to argue that nineteenth-century Americans tested in the virtual realm new theories of self, place, nation, and god. The book opens by discussing such Native American telecommunications technologies as smoke signals and sign language chains, to challenge common notions that long-distance speech practices emerged only in conjunction with capitalist industrialization. Kay Yandell analyzes the cultural interactions and literary productions that arose as Native telegraphs worked with and against European American telecommunications systems across nineteenth-century America. Into this conversation Telegraphies integrates visions of Morse's electromagnetic telegraph, with its claim to speak new, coded words and to send bodiless, textless prose instantly across the miles. Such writers as Frederick Douglass, Walt Whitman, and Ella Cheever Thayer crafted memoirs, poetic odes, and novels that envision how the birth of instantaneous communication across a vast continent forever alters the way Americans speak, write, build community, and conceive of the divine. While some writers celebrated far-speaking technologies as conduits of a metaphysical Manifest Destiny to overspread America's primitive cultures, others revealed how telecommunication could empower previously silenced voices to range free in the disembodied virtual realm, even as bodies remained confined by race, class, gender, disability, age, or geography. Ultimately, Telegraphies broadens the way literary scholars conceive of telecommunications technologies while providing a rich understanding of similarities between literatures often considered to have little in common.

Download or read book American Metaphysical Religion written by Ronnie Pontiac and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth exploration of four centuries of American occult and spiritual history, from colonial-era alchemists to 20th-century teachers • Details how, from the very beginning, America was a vibrant blend of beliefs from all four corners of the world • Looks at well-known figures such as Manly P. Hall and offers riveting portraits of many lesser known esoteric luminaries such as the Pagan Pilgrim, Tom Morton • Reveals the Rosicrucians among the first settlers from England, the spiritual influence of enslaved people, the work of mystical abolitionists, and how Native Americans and Latinx people helped shape contemporary spirituality Most Americans believe the United States was founded by pious Christians. However, as Ronnie Pontiac reveals, from the very beginning America was a vibrant blend of beliefs from all four corners of the world. Based on the latest research, with the assistance of leading scholars, this in-depth exploration of four centuries of American occult and spiritual history looks at everything from colonial-era alchemists, astrologers, and early spiritual collectives to Edgar Cayce, the Hermetic Brotherhood of Luxor, and St. Germain on Mount Shasta. Pontiac shows that Rosicrucians were among the first settlers from England and explores how young women of the Shaker community fell into trances and gave messages from the dead. He details the spiritual influence of the African diaspora, the work of mystical abolitionists, and how Indigenous groups and Latinx people played a large role in the shaping of contemporary spirituality and healing practices. The author looks at well-known figures such as Manly P. Hall and lesser known esoteric luminaries such as the Pagan Pilgrim, Tom Morton. He examines the Aquarian Gospel, the Sekhmet Revival, A Course in Miracles, the School of Ageless Wisdom, and mediumship in the early 20th century. He explores the profound influence of the Bodhi Tree Bookstore in Los Angeles and looks at the evolution of female roles in spirituality across the centuries. He also examines the right wing of American metaphysics from the Silver Legion to QAnon. Revealing the diverse streams that run through America’s metaphysical landscape, Pontiac offers an encyclopedic examination of occult teachers, esotericists, and spiritual collectives almost no one has heard of but who were profoundly influential.
Download or read book Principle of Harmony in Healing written by Gunasilan deBecker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Principle of Harmony in Healing is a pioneering work that reveals many surprising links between the indigenous medical traditions of antiquity, suggesting that the world’s oldest medical systems were likely conjoined or coordinated across the planet in ancient times. This captivating book not only unearths the forgotten role of harmony between patient and healer, but also exposes innumerable other startling connections among the ancient cultures that emphasized such a harmony in their medicine. How is the Hindu god Brahma, and his consort Saraswati, linked with the Hebrew luminary Abrahm, and his wife Sara? How is the Hindu Kush mountain range related to the Land of Kush along the Blue Nile in Ethiopia? Sowa Rigpa—the indigenous medicine of Tibet, Bhutan, Nepal, Siberia, Mongolia, and Himalayan regions of India—fused many ancient medical traditions together in a unified system that has not only benefited countless patients throughout history, but also exhibits many key characteristics of the other medical traditions that thrived in distant parts of the world in past millennia, including Mesoamerica and Indonesia. How and why did these traditions come to have such an uncanny resemblance in an era when they are not believed to have developed any contact with each other? Is there a connection between the Amchi shamans of the Himalayas and the Hampchi healers of the Andes? These are just a few of the alluring questions covered in deBecker’s ground-breaking work, The Principle of Harmony in Healing."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the interdisciplinary fields of Native North American and Indigenous Studies have reflected, at times even foreshadowed and initiated, many of the influential theoretical discussions in the humanities after the "transnational turn." Global trends of identity politics, performativity, cultural performance and ethics, comparative and revisionist historiography, ecological responsibility and education, as well as issues of social justice have shaped and been shaped by discussions in Native American and Indigenous Studies. This volume brings together distinguished perspectives on these topics by the Native scholars and writers Gerald Vizenor (Anishinaabe), Diane Glancy (Cherokee), and Tomson Highway (Cree), as well as non-Native authorities, such as Chadwick Allen, Hartmut Lutz, and Helmbrecht Breinig. Contributions look at various moments in the cultural history of Native North America—from earthmounds via the Catholic appropriation of a Mohawk saint to the debates about Makah whaling rights—as well as at a diverse spectrum of literary, performative, and visual works of art by John Ross, John Ridge, Elias Boudinot, Emily Pauline Johnson, Leslie Marmon Silko, Emma Lee Warrior, Louise Erdrich, N. Scott Momaday, Stephen Graham Jones, and Gerald Vizenor, among others. In doing so, the selected contributions identify new and recurrent methodological challenges, outline future paths for scholarly inquiry, and explore the intersections between Indigenous Studies and contemporary Literary and Cultural Studies at large.
