A Series of Lessons in Raja Yoga: Now Available!



This fine work on Raja (or royal) yoga was created by Yogi Ramacharaka- a pseudonym (it is generally held) for William Atkinson. it's quite good, and much more hands-on and instructional than many works, which tend towards mere philosophy. The ultimate goal is increased awareness, especially of the self but also in general, and exercises in mental focus and attention. Atkinson wrote two other full length works on Yoga; specifically Gnani (or Jnani) and Hatha yoga. I am editing them as well.

Imperialistic Council of the Magi: Now Available!




Of all of the odd arcana I've encountered during half a decade editing occult works, this takes the cake for the most odd of all. Invoking none other than Eliphas Levi, it purports to tutor the reader in how to become a magi. Here I insert an opinion; this work is typical of the era (and for a couple decades after) and is more like the Book of Forbidden Knowledge than it is a standard occult philosophy guide, only without some of the bric-a-brac inclusions and advertisements for crystals and self help guides.

That isn't to demean the work however- it's a fun albeit short read, and the various teachings it employs aren't inauthentic in and of themselves and roughly correlate to Theosophy and similar movements from the period. Highly recommended both for lore and laughs!

Emotional Alchemy; Transforming Negativity into Ambition: Now Available!



This short booklet is one I wrote primarily for fans of my videos on Youtube; it combines some previously mentioned principles with some new ones and proposes a basic psychological system which extends upon previous topics like the transformation of guilt and fear to rid oneself of them and achieve greater things in life.

It draws a little bit upon the political, a little bit on the psychological, and mentions some brief anecdotes. Rather than extend it to hundreds of pages with filler I did what I always do; keep it short, and thus also less expensive. Just the content as it is, nothing more. I can't offer anyone a magic cure for what ails them, but I can offer here some suggestions and tell you what works for me.
