Powerful Mental Development

Product Description

Powerful Mental Development is the study of how to gain the most from your time, your life, and mind. How to have an alert, poised mind, a happy mind, a relaxed and balanced mind, how to have more fun with your mind, and how to be more successful at work, in school, and in all places, in all phases of being.

After spending many years studying the mind with some of the most powerful and enlightened people in this world, the author has come to the conclusion that studying the development of different states of mind is the key to help unlock your full potential as a human being.

Mental evolution is the main concern in Powerful Mental Development. Mental evolution means to understand and experience the different patterns of your life. The mental pattern that you are experiencing right now, combined with your past patterns, creates new patterns that will ultimately affect your furture. As you learn to practice PMD, you will discover that you too can see beyond the normal level of awareness that most people experience. You will see that we are made up of intelligence and light. PMD simply means becoming more conscious of the intelligence that you already possess.

Mental evolution is the process of becoming more aware and using this new awareness to make conscious choices. It is the art of understanding the patterns of life, and seeing what life has created on this planet, and learning why this planet goes through the cycles that it does.

With the practice of PMD, you will learn to still your mind completely, to stop your thoughts from bothering you, and to become more conscious. The curtain of darkness will part and you will find a new life, one you have never experienced before.

Kali Kaula - A Manual of Tantric Magick

Product Description

Kali Kaula is a practical and experiential journey through the land of living magickal art that is Tantra, guided by the incisive, inspired and multi-talented hands of Jan Fries. By stripping away the fantasies and exploring the roots, flowers and fruits of Tantra, the author provides an outstandingly effective and coherent manual of practices. Acknowledging the huge diversity of Tantric material produced over the centuries, Jan Fries draws on several decades of research and experience and focuses on the early traditions of Kula, Kaula and Krama, and the result is this inimitable work which shines with the light of possibility. Unique in style and content, this book is more than a manual of tantric magick, it is a guide to the exploration of the inner soul. It contains the most lucid discussions of how to achieve liberation in the company of numerous Indian goddesses and gods, each of whom brings their own lessons and gifts to the dedicated seeker. It is also an eloquent introduction to the mysteries of the great goddess Kali, providing numerous views of her manifold nature, and showing the immense but hidden role played throughout history by women in the development and dissemination of tantric practices and beliefs. Jan Fries explores the spectrum of techniques from mudra to mantra, pranayama to puja, from kundalini arousal to purification to sexual rites, and makes them both accessible and relevant, translating them out of the Twilight Language of old texts and setting them in the context of both personal transformation and the historical evolution of traditions. The web of connections between Tantra and Chinese Alchemy and Taoism are explored as the author weaves together many of the previously disparate strands of philosophies and practices. This book challenges the reader to dream, delight, and develop, and provides an illustrated guidebook on how to do so. Bliss awaits those who dare.

The Hindu Temple: Deification of Eroticism

Amazon.com Review

Tucked away in remote Indian jungles are little-known masterpieces of Hindu architecture. What these temples mean and how they were used are the subjects of Alain Danielou's introduction to these magnificent Shaivite structures. Lifelong Indologist and translator of the Kama Sutra, Danielou gives us a grand tour of these temples by drawing from accounts in ancient texts. In very short segments, he directs us to the temple plan, the architect, erotic representations, the meanings of life, the sanctuary, and other aspects of the temple and its erotic sculpture and symbols. Originally published in two French titles, The Hindu Temple includes original photographs by Raymond Burnier and others who trekked across India to capture these out-of-the-way temples on film. The photographs, along with a number of exceptional color plates, suffer slightly in quality, but the effect is not lost. The Hindu Temple is a noteworthy introduction to a spirituality that Danielou claims to be the fountainhead of the all religions. Whether or not true, the art and the power live and still inspire today. --Brian Bruya

From Library Journal

The late Danielou was one of the greatest Western writers on Hinduism, and this text translates and amalgamates two of his texts: L'erotisme divinise and Le temple hindou. Danielou writes with great clarity and authority, and his understanding of the ancient Hindu religious aesthetic is nothing short of breathtaking. Despite the book's subtitle, Danielou's work provides less of the thrill of voyeurism than the excitement of learning and illumination. In addition, the illustration of his words by the splendid photographs of Raymond Burnier delivers the meaning of the text with added force. Highly recommended.
