Kenneth Grant Livres

As Aleister Crowley's last magical student at Netherwood in the 1940's, Kenneth Grant has upheld a proud occult tradition through a lifetime of study practice and writing. This latest book is not only for experienced students of the occult; it is also excellent for those who are new to Grant's work. Here is Grant moving through magic and beyond to a new and controversial view of human evolution and the ultimate goal of Undivided Consciousness. Topics include the primal grimoire the unfamiliar spirit and the fourth power of the sphinx along with aspects of dream control and the wisdom of S'lba.

Famed occultist Kenneth Grant continues his explorations of the left hand path in the compelling study that begins with the evolution of the Sephiroth of the Quabalistic Tree of Life. He delves into the almost unknown nightside of the tree ,finding evidence of extraterrestrial dimensions that, even now, stir our group unconscious in potentially dangerous ways. We must understand these powers, says Grant, for if they are not controlled, the violent disruptions which are already overtaking civilization will become pandemic.

They express a deep appreciation for the natural world, revealing the profound impact it has had on him. Accompanied by sketches, the poetry offers insights into both people and nature, showcasing the author's mature and sensitive perspective. Through this work, he aims to share the richness of his experiences and observations with readers.

Oblique to the paths that give on to other dimensions, and beyond them, there lies a region which the author has named the Mauve Zone. Mystics, magicians, sorcerers, alchemists, artists of many kinds have - over the centuries - skirted it, stumbled upon it, and fled from it. Very few have penetrated beyond it and survived, or cared to leave any record of the experience. Those that did, have had to present their accounts as fiction or discover a new means of communication - via weird art, symbols, hieroglyphics, signs which fellow pilgrims alone might recognise.Access to the Mauve Zone has been facilitated in more recent times by the use of magical systems developed by occultists such as Austin Osman Spare and Aleister Crowley, both of whom established contact with inter-dimensional entities possessed of transhuman knowledge and power. Both systems involve the use of sexual magick to open hidden gates that have remained sealed for centuries.

První svazek tří trilogií zabývajících se analýzou okultních tradic, které oživili adepti jako Crowley. Je zde pojednána ve vztahu ke svým starobylým zdrojům a porovnána s vývojovými etapami současného okultismu, které pomalu vyvíjejí novou gnózi, aby nahradily směšné a sterilní pověry, vzniklé z letitého nepochopení starých nauk. Magické obrození je cenným příspěvkem k okultní tradici a zásadním spisem, který je ve svém speciálním oboru pokládán za klasickou pramennou literaturu.

„Gegen das Licht gehalten“, so schlug er vor, „ergibt sich ein ganz anderes Bild.“ Innerhalb der Familie Grant gibt es ein wohlbehütetes Familiengeheimnis: Es soll ein Grimoire existieren, das die Pforten in jenseitige Bereiche aufstößt und Kontakt zu den dortigen Bewohnern ermöglicht. Der Autor macht sich zusammen mit dem Medium Margaret Leesing daran, die eigene Familiengeschichte in Séance-Sitzungen zu erforschen. Und er wird fündig: Er entdeckt ein Familiengeheimnis, dessen Ursprung im Jahre 1588 in den Wäldern von Rendlesham Forrest liegt und das die weiteren Schicksale der Familienmitglieder zu bestimmen scheint. Zudem gelangt er tatsächlich in den Besitz des geheimnisumwitterten Grimoire mit all seinen unheimlichen Zauberkräften. Schon bald kommt es zur Begegnung mit den cthulhu'schen Wesen aus anderen Welten, die sich in ihrer ganzen, grotesken Andersartigkeit präsentieren.
