brethren as practiced in 1762. Essential for the
Masonic student and scholar. This book gives the

ANONYMOUS, Rituals of the Fratres Lucis, The
'Brothers of Light'-also known as the Ritters des
Licht, or 'Knights of Light'-was supposed to be a
Masonic Rosicrucian splinter of the Order of the
Rosy Cross, but authentic information concerning it
is difficult to obtain. This book includes the
rituals of Knight Novice of the Third year, Knight
Novice of the Fifth Year, Knight Novice of the
Seventh Year, Knight Levite and Knight Priest, as
well as an introductory chapter on the order from
A.E. Waite's Brotherhood of the Rosy Cross which
comments on its many Hermetic characteristics. 46
pages, ISBN 1-56459-363-0

ANONYMOUS, Rituals of the Swedenborgian Rite of
Masonry, "The Swedenborgian Rite was revived in the
United States and Canada by Brother Samuel Beswick.
It consists of three elaborate and beautiful
ceremonies for which the Craft is required. A
Supreme Grand Lodge and Temple for G[reat]
B[ritain] & I[reland] was chartered by Brother
Colonel W.J.B. McLeod Moore, 33*, &c., of the
Canadian body, on 1st October, 1875, with Bro. John
Yarker as G.M. A Charter has recently been issued
by this country for a body in Paris, and previously
to Roumania and Egypt" John Yarker, -'The Arcane
Schools.' We learn from Liber LII, The Manifesto
of the O.T.O. (Equinox III:I:197-198), that the
Swedenborgian Rite was 16th in a list of 18 bodies
which contributed its wisdom to this august order.
Its rituals provide an esoteric reinterpretation of
the Craft degrees. This book includes all three
degrees. 91 pages, ISBN 1-56459-362-2

ANONYMOUS, Secret Ritual of the Thirty-third and
Last Degree Sovereign Grand Inspector General of
the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of
Freemasonry, This book includes the COMPLETE TEXTS
of two versions of this most secret ritual: (1) a
never-before-published c.1827 early American
version and (2) the ritual used by most Supreme
Councils world-wide. The latter is especially
enlightening to those interested in the
"vengeance," Templar and Kadosh aspects of
Freemasonry. 20 pages, ISBN 1-56459-326-6

Containing for the Instruction of the Candidates,

Royal Ark Mariners, Mark Master, Royal Arch, Red
Cross of Rome and Constantine, and Perfect Prince
Mason, Knights Templar and Rose Croix; and also
Monitorial Instructions in the 30th to 33rd and
Last Degree of Freemasonry. Commenting on the
accuracy of this book in his recent history of the
Ancient and Accepted (Scottish) Rite, ROSE CROIX
(1987), Brigadier A.C.F. Jackson noted, "About
1870, or possibly earlier, the Supreme Council
issued each Chapter with a hand-written ritual....
THE TEXT BOOK OF ADVANCED FREEMASONRY, 1873, may
have been plagiarized from the official manuscripts
referred to above." The Rose Croix ritual in this
book convinced A.E. Waite that high-grade
Freemasonry is related to Rosicrucianism. Read
this important book and find out why! This is a
reprint of the rare 1873 (first) edition.
Essential. 280 pages, ISBN 1-56459-334-7

verbatim degree work of that time. 73 pages, ISBN

BERNARD, DAVID, Light on Masonry, A Collection of
all the Most Important Documents on the Subject of
Speculative Free Masonry. This is the single most
important expose of Freemasonry ever published on
American soil. Long out of print and difficult to
obtain, this book was a product of the "Morgan
episode" and has since become one of the most
sought after items by all students of Masonic
ritual. Once dubbed "the Bible of the anti-
Masons," it includes hundreds of pages of verbatim
degree work copied from rare manuscripts which are
unobtainable elsewhere. Henry W. Coil wrote in his
Masonic Encyclopedia that this book gives the
Scottish Rite rituals as they were worked before
Albert Pike revised them, and indeed, some of its
rituals are extremely similiar to those in the 1783
Francken Manuscript. Having studied both Pike's
rituals and those included in this book, we believe
that Pike used Light on Masonry to help in writing
his "Magnum Opus" because the secret work in both
books is too close to be mere coincidence.

BUCK, J.D., Constructive Psychology or the Building
of Character by Personal Effort, "Constructive
Psychology turns the thoughtful and intelligent
individual back upon himself and undertakes to make
exceeding plain those few simple principles by
which he may adjust himself by personal effort and
establish harmonious relations to God to Nature and
to his fellowmen. He will find no necessity for
consulting libraries, philosophies, authorities, or
theologies, helpful as these may be at certain
times or under certain circumstances. He will
appeal solely to his own intelligence, his own
conscience and his own experience. This is the
only source for him of actual knowledge. He knows
only that which he has learned by definite,
personal experience." Contents: The Meaning of

Century Crusade, "Dedication: "for the Good of
Masonry" in the interest of freedom and fraternity,
Light, Liberty and Love, against-Ignorance,
Superstition and fear, Clericalism, Despotism, and
Jesuitism" "This little book has been written in
answer to the oft-repeated question-'Has any
brother anything to offer for the good of Masonry?'
The following pages are the author's answer to that
question. He can hardly hope that every brother
Mason will agree with his views of either
Freemasonry of clericalism. All he asks is that
they read and consider the facts herein set forth
and their logical bearing on the signs of the times
and the living issues of the day." Contents: To

BUCK, J.D., Holy "Roman" Empire, This article was
published in the July, 1907 issue of "New Age"
published by the Supreme Council of the Southern
Jurisdiction Scottish Rite and is about the Holy
Roman Church's aim and object to gain political
power in America. Freemasonry is a bitter foe to
all forms of tyranny and oppression: religious,
political, and social. It's no surprise therefore,
that the "Holy Roman Church" has issued many "Papal
Bulls" against the Freemasons and has, through its
army of Jesuits, endeavored to suppress Freemasonry
around the world. Here's a 33* Mason who fights
back. 20 pages, ISBN 1-56459-207-3

BUCK, J.D., Lost Word Found, Freemasons have been

BUCK, J.D., Mystic Masonry or the Symbols of
Freemasonry and the Greater Mysteries of Antiquity,
"This Great Secret, this Master's Word, was know to
and preserved in the Mysteries of Antiquity, and is
embodied and preserved in the traditions and
symbols of Masonry today. This fact has been
stated repeatedly in the body of this little book,
the real purpose of which was to set students, and
particularly masonic students, to searching for the
real secret. It is the reward of study and
devotion, and has never been obtained on any other
terms. It has never been conferred in the
ritualistic degrees of the lodge, and never will or
can be. It is the establishment of understanding
in the soul of man between that higher self in him,
and the More, and the Beyond self from which he
draws his life, and from which his intuitions
spring. This is real Initiation: Becoming: At-
one-ment." "There are thousands of Masons, who
realize that Masonry contains and implies far more
than appears in the ritual and ceremonies of the
Lodge. There is a very widespread and growing
interest in this direction, and it is this that
Mystic Masonry, above all else, is designed to
foster, encourage, and help." Contents:

Friends the Helpers-Visible and Invisible- Whose
deepest motive and highest aim are to encourage,
uplift, and inspire those who Need; That all, at
last, may stand together in the midst of the
Radiant Splendor of Eternal Truth." "At the age of
seventy-two, my egotism is at least softened by the
discovery of the many things I do not know; and my
dogmatism, so far as it ever existed, is equally
relaxed by the realization that it is a bar to
light and knowledge, which rest so largely on
demonstration. From first to last, my 'Study of
Medicine' has been generically and specifically a
'Study of Man,' physical, mental, ethical, and
psychical." Contents: Studies in Psychology:

BUCK, J.D., Thirty-third and Last Degree: Masonry
or Politics?, Albert Pike was responsible for the
tremendous expansion of the Scottish Rite because
of his comprehension of occult law. After his
death, Christian fundamentalist Masons, repudiated
his "esoterism" and sought to discredit his
teachings. This discourse also brings up the
interesting question of whether the Sovereign Grand
Commander of the Scottish Rite should hold the
office for life and what his qualifications should
be. Written 1907, it addresses the same crisis
that is facing Freemasonry today. "Are we
progressing? And in which direction? We are
facing a crisis. Increase of numbers in the Order;
ambition for active, life office; the building of a
great Temple that shall cost nearly a million of
dollars, and involve the Order hopelessly in debt
for generations to come, more likely means ruin.
In the meantime the real spirit, aims and ideals of
Masonry are being lost in the rubbish or dying for
lack of support and appreciation." 12 pages, ISBN

BURT, CALVIN C., Egyptian Masonic History of the
Original and Unabridged Ancient and Ninety-six
(96*) Rite of Memphis, "This book was written for
the purpose of showing what the Egyptian Masonic
Rite of Memphis really is; as some of the Craft
have not had the advantages of Masonic libraries,
and have been made to believe that it is an
innovation on the other Rites or Systems.... The
Masonic order of Memphis is...the sole depository
of high masonic science, the true primitive rite,
the supreme rite, that which has come down to us
without any alteration.... In fine, the Rite of
Memphis is the true masonic tree, and all other
systems, whatever they may be, are only detached
branches of this institution, rendered respectable
by its vast antiquity." This book is THE ONLY
HISTORICAL WORK IN PRINT COVERING THE EVOLUTION OF
THE RITE OF MEMPHIS IN THE UNITED STATES by one of
its original members and leaders. It inlcudes the

CARR, HARRY, Early French Exposures, This book
includes the only English language translations of
many rare and extremely important Masonic ritual
exposures. For about twenty years (1740-1762)

of the high grades (haut grades) of the
Adoniramite system which worked its way into the
Scottish Rite rituals. There are also some
extremely beautiful woodcuts depicting contemporary
ritualistic procedures (including a raising),
tracing boards and charts of Masonic ciphers.

DEHOYOS, ART, A Cloud of Prejudice: A Study in
Anti-Masonry, Freemasonry has historically suffered
from unfounded fanatical religious attacks. Why?
Because Freemasonry transcends all religions by
being universal in its approach to God. This
ignites the pettiness of narrow-minded religious
zealots who stoop to making outlandish accusations
against Freemasonry based upon their own biased and
often deliberate misinterpretations of Masonic
rituals and publications. This study focuses on
the anti-Masonic message of Pastor Ron Carlson,
President of "Christian Ministries International:
(Eden Prairie, Minnesota), who markets his anti-
Masonic sermon on an audio cassette entitled
"Freemasonry and the Masonic Lodge." The global
distribution of Carlson's message has made him one
of the most popular speaking "authorities" on the
alleged dangers of Freemasonry, and his arguments
are being accepted and repeated by unwitting
ministers world-wide. Carlson boasts that his
sermons have led 5,000 Masons out of the Craft.
According to Pastor Carlson (who claims to have
spent eighteen months engaged in "full time"
investigation) Freemasonry is an amalgam of
Luciferianism, Nature Worship, Occultism, Paganism,
Pantheism, Phallic Worship, and Universalism. In
his sermon Carlson claims to expose the dark
secrets of the Fraternity by exclusive reference to
the writings of Masonic "authorities." Relying
chiefly on Albert Pike's Morals and Dogma, Carlson
repeatedly "quotes" passages which, in the Pastor's
view, prove that Masonry "is not compatible with
Christianity [but] rather, [that] it is anti-
Christian...." In this study, Brother deHoyos,32*
examines every allegation made in Carlson's sermon
and reveals the weaknesses and fallacies of the
Pastor's arguments. Carlson's misrepresentations
and misquotations are discovered by verbatim
comparisons of the authentic texts which he
allegedly employed, while the discovery of his
dependence on anti-Masonic literature and even
forgeries exposes a prejudice void of intellectual
integrity. Carlson's weak arguments are laid bare
to reveal an ignorance of the truth while claiming
to lead followers to salvation. There is no
greater persecution than that of religious tyranny.
Blind religious zeal attempts to discredit the
truth to support its dark sectarian lies. This
book is highly recommended for anyone interested in
discovering the fallacies of anti-Masonry. 180

DEHOYOS, ART, TRANS., Rituals of the Masonic Grand
Lodge of the Sun (Bayreuth, Germany), Only English-
language translation available of the three Craft
degrees of the extinct Masonic Grand Lodge "zur
Sonne" (Bayreuth, Germany) which was closed down by
the Nazis. This beautiful Masonic Ritual, written
by Grand Master Bluntschli in 1874, gives the most
clear meaning and spiritual unfoldment of any "Blue
Lodge Degrees" that we have ever read. The
workings differ markedly from English and American
varieties. Sublime. (formerly, THE BLUNTSCHLI

EVANS, HENRY RIDGLEY, History of the York and
Scottish Rite in Freemasonry, The Scottish Rite has
often been called the Rite that defends the natural
rights of man. The York Rite is based upon
Christian chivalry. Both Rites, along with the
Blue Lodge Degrees, represent the highest
aspirations of mankind. Worthy reading for those
who appreciate humanitarian movements of the
highest degree. 81 pages, ISBN 1-56459-044-5

FRANCKEN, HENRY ANDREW, Francken Manuscript 1783,
This is a complete typescript of the rituals of all
twenty-five degrees of Etienne (Stephen) Morin's
Masonic Rite which became the foundation of the
Ancient and Accepted (Scottish) Rite. Soon after
the development of 'Ecossais' Masonry in France,
Morin was appointed 'Grand Inspector in all parts
of the New World' by the Council of the Grand and
Sovereign Lodge of St. Jean de Jerusalem in either
Bordeaux or Paris. Morin, who had access to many
high grade rituals, then apparently created a set
of Masonic regulations called the 'Constitutions of
1762' to assist him in establishing High-Grade
Masonry in the New World; he also organized these
'haut grades' into a Masonic rite. Armed with his
patent, Morin traveled to Kingston, Jamaica, and
between 1762 and 1767 conferred his rite upon H.A.
Francken, whom he also appointed Deputy Inspector-
General in 1769. Francken wrote out the rituals in
at least three manuscripts-the most complete set
being the 1783 manuscript. In 1767 Francken
authorized a 'Lodge of Perfection' in Albany, New
York, and the seeds of Scottish Rite Masonry were
planted on the East Coast. By 1800 some fifty men
had been appointed Deputy Inspectors, and several
resolved to establish a governing body of the Rite.
A document, known as the 'Constitutions of 1786'
authorized an increase from Morin's 25-degree
system to one of 33 degrees. On May 31, 1801, the
first Supreme Council, 33*, of the Ancient and
Accepted Scottish Rite was organized in Charleston,
South Carolina, which survives today as the Supreme
Council, 33*, (Mother Council of the World)
A\A\S\R\, Southern Masonic Jurisdiction, USA. This
is a complete copy of Francken's best manuscript,
and is the single most important document relating
to the Ancient and Accepted (Scottish) Rite,
because it the lineal predecessor of the Rite. The
rituals of this manuscript represent their
authentic form at the birth of Scottish Rite,
before they were modified by Carson, Gourgas,
Yates, Pike, etc. To whatever extent the rituals
may have changed in any jurisdiction, all owe their
existence to the rituals of this magnificent
document. CONTENTS: The 7 classes of antient and

JOHNSTON, E.R., Masonry Defined, A Liberal Masonic
Education that Every Mason Should Have. Compiled
from the Writings of Albert G. Mackey and Many
Other Eminent Authorities. Revised and Enlarged.
This is a rare book and highly sought after by the
serious Masonic student. "The average Mason, after
taking his degrees in Masonry, immediately asks
himself what it all means. Few Masons have, or
will take, the time to make an exhaustive study of
Masonry. It is to this class of busy Masons this
work will make an especial appeal. We have culled
from the writings of many eminent Masonic scholars
the 'meat' of the subject, and present it in such
form that the busy Mason can get what he wants
without the necessity of extensive reading or
study. No Mason can acquire in a few days or
months, or even years, all there is in Masonry.
Everything in Masonry has a beautiful meaning if
rightly understood, and everything done in the
ritual work is meant to teach a distinct moral
lesson. Masonry would die out in five years if it
had to depend upon about 85% of the membership. It
is the small minority-the really interested Masons-
who have kept and are keeping the order alive
today." 937 pages, ISBN 1-56459-379-7

MACKENZIE, KENNETH R.H., The Royal Masonic
Cyclopaedia (1877), Extremely scarce and fervently
sought after, this book rates as one of the most
prized sources of Masonic research available to the
sincere student of Freemasonry. H. P. Blavatsky
constantly refers to this work throughout her
Secret Doctrine. Unlike other Masonic
encyclopedias, this is noted for fully exploring
the esoteric roots of Freemasonry. Interestingly,
Mackenzie and this work were consulted by leading
esoterists of that time. Mackenzie may have even
produced the Golden Dawn Ciphers. Replete with
Masonic wisdom, this is one of those rare gems that
truly offers "More Light in Masonry." 790 pages,

MACKEY, ALBERT G., Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, And
its Kindred Sciences Comprising the Whole Range of
Arts, Sciences and Literature as Connected With the

the means, time, and the inclination for the
purchase of numerous books, and for the close and
attentive reading of them...to acquire a knowledge
of all matters connected with the science, the
philosophy, and the history of his Order." It was
this thought that suggested to him that he should
collect materials for a work which under one cover
might help to enlighten his Brethren. This book is
so absorbing you could sit and read it from cover
to cover. It also serves as a handy reference
guide for any Masonic question that may arise.
Highly recommended. 1046 pages, ISBN 1-56459-099-2

"The objections which have been so unceasingly

prejudice, by some formal examinations of the
grounds on which they are founded." Contents: On

PHYLOTUS, Esoteric Masonry or the Storehouse
Unlocked, "The mention of the word Masonry, to the
ordinary mind, suggests a body of men possessing
certain secrets, which, to the uninitiated, are
full of wonder. Should I here announce to the
Masonic world that they, as an organization, have
not in their possession THE secret for which all
their rite and symbolism stands, they would be
justly startled. But such is the fact. It is not
the purpose of this work to review Masonry as to
its origin, etc., but to interpret its hidden
mystic meaning to those 'Who have made proficiency
and been duly passed.' By some I shall perhaps be
thought a madman, by some as too vague for clear
understanding, and by some as undertaking the
impossible. To all, I humbly ask a close and
sincere study of these pages; and, I have reason to
believe, that if you will pursue this course, you
will discover the 'LIGHT' which you have so fondly
dreamed in your possession." 80 pages, ISBN 1-

PIKE, ALBERT, Book of the Words, Here's Pike at his
best! Masonry is permeated with powerful
symbolism-both verbal and pictorial-that arouses
the mental, spiritual, and intellectual life of
those who use them. This extremely interesting
study, once limited to 150 copies, gives the
correct spelling of, and analyzes all the
"significant words" (pass words, etc.) in, the
Scottish Rite from the 1st through 30th degrees
inclusive. In addition to being an etymological
dictionary Pike explains WHY any given word was
chosen for a given degree thereby revealing THE
HIDDEN SYMBOLISM OF EACH WORD. Illustrated and
highly recommended! 180 pages, ISBN 1-56459-161-1

PIKE, ALBERT, Ex Corde Locutiones: Words from the
Heart Spoken of his Dead Brethren, This unique book
is extremely important for two reasons. First, for
its biographical history of all the luminaries who
have worked and died in the Scottish Rite and
secondly, Pike's eloquent prose on the philosophy
of life and death is presented here with the
clarity and understanding of a prophet. There has
never been a Mason like Pike. If you are or have
been faced with losing a loved one, read this
beautiful book-it will help you. 363 pages, ISBN 1-
56459-350-9

PIKE, ALBERT, Indo-Aryan Deities and Worship as
Contained in the Rig-Veda, "Nothing has ever so
much interested me, as this endeavour to penetrate
into the adyta of the ancient Aryan thought, to
discover what things, principles or phenomena our
remote ancestors worshipped as Gods, what Indra,
Varuna, Mitra, Aryaman, the Acvins, Vayu, Vishnu,
Savitri and the others really were, in the
conception of the composers of the Vedic hymns."
"I found the most profound philosophic or
metaphysical ideas, which those of every philosophy
and religion have merely developed; and that, so
far from being Barbarians or Savages, the old Aryan
herdsmen and husbandmen, in the Indus country under
the Himalayan Mountains, on the rivers of Bactria,
and long before, on the Scythic Steppes where they
originated, were men of singularly clear and acute
intellects, profound thought and an infinite
reverence of the beings whom they worshipped." 659
pages, ISBN 1-56459-183-2

PIKE, ALBERT, Lectures on Masonic Symbolism and A
Second Lecture on Symbolism or the Omkara and other
Ineffable Words, "This Lecture is intended to
be...I think, my last labor of the kind in Masonry.
I hope that I have succeeded in rescuing part of
the Symbols of Freemasonry, in some degree, from
the condition of insignificance into which they had
fallen and in proving that there is something in
the Royal Art to make it worthy of the attention,
and study of men of intellect and learning; which
they have not heretofore believed. The mass of
Masons are little inclined to read works on
Masonry. And I think it wiser, also, to place
these works in a few hands, and let what truths
they may contain be communicated orally to others
by the few who read them. I have endeavoured to do
that for our symbols, and am amply rewarded by what
I have learned." This book is extremely scarce as
there were only 100 copies ever printed. This is
the first reprint ever of this essential,
illuminating work, on Freemasonry. Highly
recommended. 500 pages, ISBN 1-56459-162-X

PIKE, ALBERT, Legenda and Readings of the Ancient
and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, "There
are other things that you should hear said now, and
without which you will not be fully in possession
of this degree... You will find them in the
Legenda..." (quote from the 26th degree, AASR,
SMJ). This book contains ALL of the "Legenda" and
"Readings" written for members of the Scottish Rite
to supplement the ritualistic instruction. This
anthology is similar, in some respects, to Pike's
Lectures on Masonic Symbolism, but was considered
REQUIRED READING by Pike himself. No Mason can
truly understand the Scottish Rite degrees without
reading this essential work. 440 pages, ISBN 1-
56459-309-6

PIKE, ALBERT, Liturgies of the Ancient and Accepted
Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Parts 2-4 (4th* -
30*), This massive work includes ALL the Scottish
Rite "Liturgies" (monitors) prepared for the
current rituals of the Supreme Council 33*, SMJ.
Lavishly illustrated with diagrams of the aprons,
jewels and symbols of the degrees, the texts of
these works contain verbatim extracts from the
current rituals of the Scottish Rite. Some
portions of these books (such as the "Lecture and
History" of the thirteenth*) are not even included
in the official rituals. Extremely interesting and
informative, students of the rituals may compare
this work with the Magnum Opus to trace the
evolution of the degrees. Highly recommended. 700
pages, ISBN 1-56459-310-X

PIKE, ALBERT, Liturgy of the Blue Degrees, For the
Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry
for the Southern Jurisdiction. This rare work
includes all the monitorial instructions for the
three Craft Degrees according to the Scottish Rite,
and is intended to supplement Pike's Book of the

PIKE, ALBERT, Magnum Opus or the Great Work, Now
available after 135 years! One of the rarest and
most important books ever published on the Ancient
and Accepted (Scottish) Rite of Freemasonry-Albert
Pike's Magnum Opus or "Great Work," being his first
revision of the complete rituals of the Scottish
Rite. Only 100 copies were printed-less than
thirty are said to survive. Pike's ritualistic
revisions were so impressive he was made an active
member of the Supreme Council and became the most
revered Sovereign Grand Commander in the history of
the Rite. Thanks to the generous loan of a copy
from a European antiquarian, this special reprint
makes available to the serious student the complete
authentic rituals which served as the foundation of
the Scottish Rite's philosophy. This invaluable
work is not to be confused with either the various
ritualistic "exposures" of anti-Masons, or the
rituals currently used by either American Scottish
Rite. The Magnum Opus contains Albert Pike's
complete, original text of the Scottish Rite
degrees. Some of Pike's rituals were used by other
Supreme Councils as a foundation for their own
practices; while more recently the Supreme Council
33*, Southern Masonic Jurisdiction, U.S.A. has
appointed a committee to revise the current Pike
rituals. The Magnum Opus allows researchers to
trace the divergence to discover shifts in Masonic
symbolism. An invaluable reference aid and
research tool, the scarcity and cost of an original
copy placed it beyond the reach of almost all
Masonic bibliophiles. This affordable facsimile
reprint places Masonic knowledge where it belongs-
in the hands of those seeking Light. Although
similar to the current rituals used by the Scottish
Rite, it is slightly different and more esoteric.
We have also included for the first time ever, the
grips and signs, and the key to the "Secret Work."

Baptism has always been used in the Scottish Order.

philosophy. 221 pages, ISBN 1-56459-348-7

PIKE, ALBERT, Meaning of Masonry, Albert Pike found
Freemasonry in a log cabin and left in a Temple.
He was the master genius of Masonry in America,
both as scholar and artist. No other mind of equal
power ever toiled so long in the service of the
Craft in the New World. To understand Freemasonry,
read Pike. 66 pages, ISBN 1-56459-050-X

PIKE, ALBERT, Morals and Dogma, "The teachings of
these Readings are not sacramental, so far as they
go beyond the realm of Morality into those of other
domains of Thought and Truth. The Ancient and
Accepted Scottish Rite uses the word 'Dogma' in its
true sense, of doctrine, or teaching; and is not
dogmatic in the odious sense of that term.
Everyone is entirely free to reject and dissent
from whatsoever herein may seem to him to be untrue
or unsound. It is only required of him that he
shall weigh what is taught, and give it fair
hearing and unprejudiced judgment. Of course, the
ancient theosophic and philosophic speculations are
not embodied as part of the doctrines of the Rite;
but because it is of interest and profit to know
what the Ancient Intellect thought upon these
subjects, and because nothing so conclusively
proves the radical difference between our human and
the animal nature, as the capacity of the human
mind to entertain such speculations in regard to
itself and the Deity." Contents: Apprentice;

PIKE, ALBERT, The Porch and the Middle Chamber:
BOOK OF THE LODGE, If you're a 32* Degree Mason you
may THINK that you've received all the Scottish
Rite degrees, but chances are you haven't. Why?
Unknown to most people, Albert Pike also wrote
Scottish Rite rituals for the three Blue Lodge
Degrees. In Pike's words, these Scottish Rite
Blue Lodge rituals were "to be studied and
understood before investiture with the fourth
degree. For, without it, the system of that Rite
is incomplete, and even like a fabric without
foundation." This rare reprint includes the,
openings, closings and rituals of the Entered
Apprentice, Fellow Craft and Master Mason degrees
according to the Pike workings of the Ancient and
Accepted Scottish Rite. More importantly it
contains the complete SECRET WORK. These rituals
are MUCH MORE ESOTERIC and differ significantly
from the Webb-form (York Rite) Blue Lodge rituals
commonly used in the United States, and the book
has several interesting illustrations (including
Hiram's jewel-a talisman!). Also included is the
"Table Lodge" ceremony. Highly recommended. Very
scarce! 350 pages, ISBN 1-56459-308-8

realization of the great principles and ideals
embodied in the Ancient Mysteries and our Modern

WAITE, ARTHUR EDWARD, Secret Tradition in
Freemasonry (1911), In his autobiographical book,
SHADOWS IN LIFE AND THOUGHT, Waite commented, "The
volumes appeared in 1911, and so far as my
knowledge goes, they formed-in respect of
production-the most beautiful work which has ever
been issued in any land or language on the Masonic
Subject." This is NOT an early edition of Waite's
other work by the same name. Contents: Volume 1,
Fundamental Relations of the Craft and the High
Grades; Development of the High Grades in Respect
of the Antient Alliance; Of the New Alliance of
Freemasonry; The Masonic Orders of Chivalry.

WAITE, ARTHUR EDWARD, Secret Tradition in
Freemasonry (1937), This was Waite's last book and
is THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK EVER WRITTEN ON THE
ESOTERIC ASPECTS OF FREEMASONRY. "I am not
offering in this book a revised edition of two
volumes which appeared under the same title so far
back as 1911. It is so altered, extended and
transformed that it may claim to be a new
undertaking and to supersede in fact that which it
preserves in name." Waite not only reedited and
radically restructured the two volume edition, but
he incorporated much of his Emblematic Freemasonry
(1925) that it might, as he said, supersede the
previous work. This was Waite's last and (in his
opinion) most important work on Freemasonry.

valuable as is the mystical teaching of

WEATHERBY, C.J., Secret Ritual of the Knights of
the Ancient Essenic Order, (reprint of the rare
1897 edition), Don't confuse this ritual with the
so-called code-books of the "Modern Order of

different! These rituals of this non-masonic order
inculcate patriotism, opposition (by lawful means)
to tyranny and the discovery of the laws of God.

know on obelisks, their origin, construction,
mystical significance, use, and esoteric purposes.

WILMSHURST, W.L., Ceremony of Passing, "We are to
examine now a Ceremony which, because it is less
dramatic and spectacular than that of the First
Degree, is often regarded as a somewhat colourless
interlude between the impressive surprises of the
one which precedes and the awesome grandeur of the
one which follows it. Being a 'veil of allegory'
the Ceremony must not only be looked at but looked
through, if its significance is to be realized.
The Ceremony is called one of 'passing', since it
relates to a midway, transitional phase of personal
experience through which every aspirant to
perfection must inevitably pass before he can think
of attaining the ultimate degree of soul-
development and mastership to which our system
leads." 54 pages, ISBN 1-56459-317-7

WILMSHURST, W. L., The Meaning of Masonry, "The
papers here collected have been written with a view
to promoting the deeper understanding of the
meaning of Masonry; to providing the explanation of
it that one constantly hears called for. The
meaning of Masonry, however, is a subject usually
left entirely unexpounded and that accordingly
remains largely unrealized by its members save such
few as make it their private study. It seems taken
for granted that reception into the Order will
automatically be accompanied by an ability to
appreciate forthwith and at its full value all that
one there finds. The contrary is the case, for
Masonry is a veiled and cryptic expression of the
difficult science of spiritual life, and the
understanding of it calls for special and informed
guidance on the one hand, and on the other a
genuine and earnest desire for knowledge on the
part of those seeking to be instructed." Contents:

YARKER, JOHN, Arcane Schools, A rare reprint of a
masterpiece which demonstrates the antiquity of the
Masonic mysteries and their relation to other
schools of antiquity by attempting to trace the
development of Masonic Ritual back to the medieval
stonemasons, and from there to other schools. In
his review of this book in the EQUINOX, Aleister
Crowley commented that Brother Yarker seems to have
read every old Masonic manuscript ever written.
This book is the sole source for some obscure bits
of Masonic history. Yarker was the head of the
Ancient and Primitive Rite of Freemasonry in
England, and may have possessed more first-hand
knowledge of Masonic rituals than anyone else of
his time, including A.E. Waite. A Review of their
Origin and Antiquity with a General History of
Freemasonry and its relation to the Theosophic,
Scientific, and Philosophic Mysteries. Contents:

Maxims." This extremely scarce work includes ALL
the "lectures" (catechisms, or questions and
answers) of Yarker's Antient and Primitive Rite of
Memphis and is an ESSENTIAL work for understanding
this curious Masonic rite. Portions of these
lectures were borrowed from the old Ancient and
Accepted Scottish Rite Rituals used in the Northern
Masonic Jurisdiction, USA, before they were
influenced by Albert Pike's works. Contents: (1)
Chapter. Lectures of a College-4* to 8-11*; of a

YARKER, JOHN, The Secret High Degree Rituals of the
Masonic Rite of Memphis, The Rite of Memphis
aggravated members of "conventional" Freemasonry
because it claimed not only to be the true source
of Masonic wisdom but to be the ONLY legitimate
Masonic system! Its rituals were much more
esoteric than those commonly encountered in
"regular" Freemasonry. Many colorful personalities
allied themselves with this system, including Karl
Kellner, Theodore Reuss and Aleister Crowley. In
England, the Rite was under the direction of John
Yarker, while in the United States, Harvey Spencer
Lewis, of AMORC fame, also made use of these
degrees. This fascinating book is a reprint of
John Yarker's manuscript-"The Ancient and Primitive
Rite of Memphis in 95*-Book Third-Series III
Consistory and Grand Council." It includes
Yarker's last revision of the 34*-96* rituals
inclusive, plus the "secret work." 80 pages, ISBN

equal terms. 100 pages, ISBN 1-56459-333-9

lighter work and found therein amusement and
relaxation. Her friends, all the world over, will
welcome this example of gifts used but too rarely
amid the strain of weightier work." Contents: The

and after the Fall. And what the Wrath of God,
Sin, Death, the Devils and Hell are. How all
things have been, now are, and how they shall be at
the Last. "Some have complained of the hardness to
understand his writings, and therefore I have
endeavored the Englishing of this book of the Three
Principles, which, the author saith, is the A, B, C
to all his writings; and if they read it carefully,

BOEHME, JACOB, Confessions of Jacob Boehme,
Introduction by Evelyn Underhill. "Jacob Boehme,
who reveals to us in this book some of the secrets
of his inner life, was among the most original of
the great Christian mystics. With a natural genius
for the things of the spirit, he also exhibited
many of the characteristics of the psychic, the
seer, and the metaphysician; and his influence on
philosophy has been at least as great as his
influence on religious mysticism." 188 pages, ISBN
1-56459-214-6

BOEHME, JACOB, Dialogues on the Supersensual Life,
Edited by William Law. "The Soul, in the doctrine
of Boehme, is a Being which has a will or desire,
and is aided by a mirror of understanding or
imagination. Will or Desire is of the very essence
of the Soul, inseparable from its existence. He
says: 'Where Desire is, there is also Essence or
Being.' The Soul is subject to the diverse
attractions of the Centre of Divine Life and Light,
and of the Spirit of the World. Enlightened by its
understanding it has the free power to turn its
will towards, and unite itself to, this or that.
'Choose well, thy choice is brief and yet
endless.'" 144 pages, ISBN 1-56459-216-2

BOEHME, JACOB, Forty Questions of the Soul,
Sparrow, John. "The author wrote this answer to
these questions, chiefly for his friend's sake that
sent them to him, as also for the benefit of all
such as love the knowledge of Mysteries: this
friend who traveled for learning and hidden wisdom,
and in his return home, happened to hear of this
author in the city of Gorlitz; and when he had
obtained acquaintance with him, he rejoiced, that
at last he had found at home, in a poor cottage,
that which he had traveled for so far, and not
received satisfaction: then he went to the several
universities in Germany, and did there collect such
questions concerning the soul, as were thought and
accounted impossible to be resolved fundamentally
and convincingly; which he made this catalog of,
and sent to this author, from whom he received
these answers according to his desire, wherein he
and many others that saw them received full
satisfaction. 363 pages, ISBN 1-56459-266-9

Principles of the Divine Essence; also of the
Original of the World and the Creation. Wherein
the Kingdom of Nature, and the Kingdom of Grace,
are Expounded. For the better understanding of the
Old and New Testament, and what Adam and Christ
are, also How Man should consider and may know
himself in the Light of Nature, what he is, and
wherein his Temporal, and Eternal Life, Consist;
also, wherein his Eternal Blessedness, and
Damnation Consist. And is an Exposition of the
Essence of all Essences for the further
Consideration of the Lovers, in the Divine Gift.
Comprised in Three  Parts. "Since then the great
Mysteries, the beginningof and original of all
things, do befall us by divine grace; that we are
able to understand the same in real knowledge, with
the inspired word of the divine science, we will
write down its ground in this book: I. We will
signify and declare what the centre and ground of
all essences is. II. What the divine
manifestation is. III. How evil and good have
their original from one only ground. IV. How all
things have their ground from the Grand Mystery.
V. How the eternal One introduceth itself into
sensation, perception, and severation, to the
science of itself, and the play of the divine
power. VI. How man may attain to the true
knowledge of God, and to the knowledge of the
eternal and temporal nature. VII. Also how man may
come unto the real contemplation of the Being of
all beings. VIII. Also of the creation of the
world and of all creatures. IX. And then of the
original, fall, and restoration of man; what he is
according to the first Adamical man in the kingdom
of nature: and what he is in the new regeneration
in the kingdom of grace, and how the new birth
comes to pass. X. Also what the Old and New
Testaments are, each in its understanding. And we
will enlarge this exposition through all the
chapters of the first Book of Moses; and signify
how the Old Testament is a figure of the New." 1030

activity of the angels? What moved Lucifer that he
had a desire contrary to God, and turned himself
away from the good? How can a devil have arisen
from an angel? or, what is a devil? In what essence

that God is almighty, why did He not resist
Lucifer, and prevent this? What was it the devil
desired, with a view to which he turned aside from
God's love? What was the combat between Michael
and the dragon? How may the eternal counsel of God
be contemplated in the Divine intuition? How was
the expulsion of the dragon and the legions of
Lucifer brought about? What is the office of the
devil in hell? Had the foundation of hell a
temporal beginning, or has it been from eternity?

COCKREN, A., Alchemy Rediscovered and Restored,
"The object of this book is to place before the
reader in language as simple as possible the story
of alchemy. Because the literature on this science
has ever been an enigma to both the scientific and
the lay mind, it is the earnest desire of the
author to present it stripped of its symbolism, and
to give some indication of its processes, its
achievements, and its possibilities. He wishes to
show that this science is the Law operating behind
all Manifestation in Man; Man that is in his
entirety, physical, mental, and spiritual, and to
demonstrate how it is bound up in the further
evolution and unfoldment of the race, for without
this understanding the vision of Man made perfect
is impossible." This is an excellent primer for
anyone interested in alchemy. 158 pages, ISBN 1-

COMENIUS, JOHN AMOS, Labyrinth of the World and the
Paradise of the Heart, "What you will read, dear
reader, is no fable, even though it may have the
appearance of one. It describes real life, as you
will perceive when you have gained insight into
it." "Fare you well, my dear Christian, and may
the leader of light, the Holy Spirit, reveal to
you, better than I am able to do, the vanity of the
world, as well as the true glory, consolation, and
the joy of the elect and God-united hearts." John
Amos Comenius. "Comenius's delightful allegory
Labyrinth of the World may fitly take its place
among the great dramatizations of the ever vital
message of mysticism, or with such allegories as
the English religious classic, Bunyan's Pilgrim's
Progress." "Comenius shows himself, in this work,
a genuine mystic in the succession of Plotinus,
Augustine, Meister Eckhart, Garard Groote, and
Thomas a Kempis. The message of his work is a
dramatized presentation of the eternal theme of all
mysticism. The Kingdom of God is within you." 170

supremacy over the Elements, from which his own
body and the Manifested World were alike formed;
one whose Will had risen Phoenix-like from the
ashes of his desires; one whose Intuition, cleansed
from the stains of material illusion, was a clear
mirror in which he could perceive the Past, the
Present and the Future." Contents: The Book of

an attempt has been made to gather together the
best and most reliable of the sets of Ethical
Verses attributed to the Pythagoreans." "Sorely is
needed in life the strong pure teaching of the
elder days, when learning was held to be richer
than wealth, and simplicity finer than lavishness.
None will truly profit by the book who merely reads
it through; a sentence should be taken as a thought
to 'sleep on,' or as a note to which the day's work
should be attuned, and, deeply meditated upon,
should lead to the riches hidden beneath its words.
Such use of the book will make it what it should
be-a sign-post pointing the hidden way to wisdom,
which is a treasure concealed." Contents: Golden
Verses of Pythagoras, with Notes from the
Commentaries of Hierocles; Golden Sentences of
Democrates; Pythagorean Sentences of Demophilus;

as Paracelsus, Extracted from His Rare and
Extensive Works and from some Unpublished
Manuscripts; "Of those who have taught the secret
doctrine's scientific aspect, there have been none
more profound than Hermes Trismegistus, Pythagoras,
and Paracelsus." "Paracelsus threw pearls before
the swine, and was scoffed at by the ignorant, his
reputation was torn by the dogs of envy and hate,
and he was treacherously killed by his enemies.
But although his physical body returned to the
elements out of which it was formed, his genius
still lives, and as the eyes of the world become
better opened to an understanding of spiritual
truths, he appears like a sun on the mental
horizon, whose light is destined to illuminate the
world of mind and to penetrate deep into the hearts
of the coming generation, to warm the soil out of
which the science of the coming century will grow."

Practical Hints for Students of Occultism. "Magic
means that divine art of exercise of spiritual
power by which the awakened spirit in man may
control the living elements." It was not my

studying the elements of which his own soul is
composed, and to learn to know his own psychical
organism." "In this Spirit of God in man rest all
of man's divine and magical powers. To call the
attention of the readers to the divine powers
existing within themselves, thus to lead them to a
knowledge of their own higher nature, to aid them
in entering a higher life and finally to state what
the greatest mystics of the East and West have
taught in regard to the nature and the development
of these powers, has been the aim of the Author."

HARTMANN, FRANZ, Talking Image of Urur, "The
following tale has a certain historical aspect.
The events described therein or their equivalents
have actually taken place, and the characters of
the story are, so to say, composite photographs of
living people. This story was written with the
sole object of showing to what absurdities a merely
intellectual research after spiritual truths will
lead; or to express it in other words, that it is
foolish to attempt a scientific investigation of
the nature of the Holy Ghost, if one has not the
spirit of truth and holiness within one's own self.
The story represents the vain struggles of a soul
for light, and how at last the truth came to it
without any struggle. Thus in attempting to show
the difference between true spirituality and
sophistry, or between true religion and what is
most properly rejected as mysticism, spiritism and
metaphysical speculation, I believe that I am
rendering a service to the cause of the Truth. 307

KINGSLAND, WILLIAM, An Anthology of Mysticism and
Mystical Philosophy, "The quotations given have not
been selected haphazard. There are some definite
and fundamental principles which they are intended
to illustrate. That which has emerged in my mind
has been a profound conviction that there are
certain principles which, in some form or another,
have obtained recognition by the wisest and the
best in all ages. These principles have been
formulated and re-formulated from age to age, in
divers manners: sometimes in myth and allegory,
sometimes as philosophy, sometimes as religion,
sometimes as science. I would go even further than
that and say I am profoundly convinced that there
has always existed a real Gnosis, a most profound
knowledge of the true nature of Man, and of his
relation to the world in which he lives and to the
greater Universe. But to attain to this knowledge
the individual must have special qualifications
which has been clearly indicated at various times,
and which some of the quotations herein given are
intended to set forth." Partial Contents: Absolute

KINGSLAND, WILLIAM, Christos: The Religion of the
Future, "What I have here endeavored to do, merely
in outline, is to show that certain modern beliefs,
dogmas, and creeds, which have been carried over
and have survived from a far less enlightened age
or period, can no longer be valid in the light of
our modern knowledge. But, further than that, I
shall hope to indicate that even in the remotest
past there was already a deeper knowledge, a real
Gnosis which we are in fact only now beginning to
recover. It is that ancient Gnosis which must be
the Religion of the Future; for, as I shall hope to
show to some extent, all our scientific discoveries
and our modern philosophical thinking tends to
confirmation and restatement of it." Contents:

KINGSLAND, WILLIAM, Gnosis or Ancient Wisdom in the
Christian Scriptures or the Wisdom in a Mystery,
This book is the last work of William Kingsland and
was completed shortly before his death. "In this
work Kingsland shows how the fundamental teachings
given to the world at the beginning of the
Christian ere were derived from the Gnosis or
Ancient Wisdom, but in time have become so
perverted that the modern interpretation of
Christianity represents merely their debased
survival." Contents: Religion and Religions; The

KINGSLAND, WILLIAM, Physics of the Secret Doctrine,
"Occult Physics are so closely connected with
Metaphysics that it is almost impossible to deal
with the one without the other. While, therefore,
we shall be compelled to present somewhat of the
Metaphysical basis upon which the whole of the
teachings rest, we shall at the same time endeavor
to subordinate this as much as possible to what is
more generally understood as Physics. All Physics,
however, all physical inquiry when pushed far
enough, must necessarily end in a metaphysical
region. Matter can have no ultimate explanation in
and by itself, or without its correlative, Mind or
Consciousness." Contents: Fundamental Principles;

KUHN, ALVIN BOYD, Easter: The Birthday of the
Gods, "For since by man came death, by man came
also the resurrection of the dead." Easter
celebrates an event that is yet to be, not an event
of the past. This is the best book we have
discovered that reveals the mystical significance
of Easter and how this process holds special
meaning for you. 64 pages, ISBN 1-56459-367-3

KUHN, ALVIN BOYD, India's True Voice, A Critique of
Oriental Philosophy. "The world is dangerously
divided between the two great sectors of East and
West. At the moment of writing the schism is
marked by a differentiation in the philosophies of
economics, government, politics and other elements.
It therefore becomes an enterprise charged with the
mightiest import for world life for ages in the
future, that the West should acquaint itself
familiarly with the message of India's True Voice."

KUHN, ALVIN BOYD, Lost Light: An Interpretation of
Ancient Scriptures, "With keys drawn from ancient
Egypt's wisdom it (The Lost Light) pierces through
the outer veil of Bible literalism and alleged
history and reconstructs the long-lost structure of
sublime arcane meaning." He "establishes the
epochal fact that the Christian religion can no
longer be considered a product of Judea in the
first century A.D., but is of remote Egyptian
origin." "The evidence amassed demonstrates beyond
cavil that the Bible is a reprint of old Egyptian
texts." Partial Contents: Wisdom Hidden in a

KUHN, ALVIN BOYD, Prayer and Healing, "Behind the
universe with its multitude of suns and worlds and
underlying all the cosmic activities, guiding the
evolution of life itself, is a Power, Force or Mind
which is recognized as First Cause. This Supreme
Being is spoken of as God. Yet theology teaches
that if one will pray, entreat, solicit or beg to
this God vigorously enough and with sufficient
faith, He may be persuaded to grant one's requests,
irrespective of their merits. Dr. Kuhn makes it
clear that the assumption that prayers are heard
and answered by a Cosmic Divine Power is entirely
groundless and should be abandoned for a saner
hypothesis. He provides us a clue to such
hypothesis." 45 pages, ISBN 1-56459-327-4

KUHN, ALVIN BOYD, Sex As Symbol: The Ancient Light
in Modern Psychology, "The prominence of phallic
symbols in high ancient religious systems has never
before been understood, much less sanely expounded
and vindicated as something transcending gross
sensualism. It is not too much to assert that in
this work sex is given its truly lofty place and
rated at its exalted character for the first time
in religious literature. For not only is sex
revealed as the truest key-symbol of the supreme
significance of human life itself, but it is
brilliantly analyzed as to its place and function
in the individual human's program of evolution, his
sanity, balance, mental health and happiness. If
it is possible for one book to lift sex from low
and base regard to a veritable pinnacle of purity
and nobility in the light of its true character,
this book will do it." Partial Contents: Bright

KUHN, ALVIN BOYD, Shadow of the Third Century: A
Revaluation of Christianity, "To all those who know
that truth alone will free us from the tyranny of
indoctrinated pious obsessions this volume is
sincerely dedicated." "This book has been written
to tell the truth about a religion that has
produced such obviously irrational behavior. The
story needs telling all the more for the reason
that it has never been told in its bald straight
factual truth, and because heaven and earth have
been called upon to prevent its being known ever
since the third century. It is in the main truth
that has been suppressed, buried, its evidences
destroyed, its documents changed, with a story far
other than the true one substituted in its place.
The position taken is in no sense opposed to
religion per se; it only holds that religion
divorced from philosophy is inadequate to man's
highest needs and will prove a treacherous and
eventually dangerous guide in life." Partial

KUHN, ALVIN BOYD, Who is this King of Glory?, A
Critical Study of the Christos-Messiah Tradition.
"This book is the narrative of what happened back
in the third century of Christian history, when the
Christian movement passed over from the hands of
the Philosophers of the Greek world into those of
the unphilosophical and worldly minded Romans and
suffered the total extinction of its original light
of esoteric spiritual meaning, the historical
result of which was the sixteen centuries of the
Dark Ages. This book is the natural companion and
complement of The Lost Light." Contents: Faith

LAW, WILLIAM, Extracts From the Writings of William
Law, William Law was a kind and gentle soul who
clearly perceived the mystic oneness of all
existences. His writings should be read by any
mystic. "What is a good Book? A good Religious
Book is one full of such truths and Spiritual
information will lead us to see and know who, and
what and where we are; that God is our All, and
that all is misery but a heart and life devoted to
him. The best Book is undeniably that which will
turn to us that inward one, which, with noon day
clearness, shows us the strength of sin, the power
of every evil temper, the secret workings of our
hearts, the weakness of all our virtues; and to the
Teacher, whose instructions consist in an inward
birth of Divine Light and Goodness." 60 pages, ISBN

LEADBEATER, C.W., Christian Creed, Its Origin and
Signification. "There are many students who have
been, and indeed still are, earnest Christians; and
though their faith has gradually broadened out into
unorthodoxy, they have retained a strong affection
for the forms and ceremonials of the religion into
which they were born. It is a pleasure to them to
hear the recitation of the ancient prayers and
creeds. I have thought that it might be of
interest to such students to have some slight
account of the real meaning and origin of those
very remarkable basic formul of the Church which
are called the Creeds, so that when they hear them
or join in their recital the ideas brought into
their minds thereby may be the grander and nobler
ones originally connected with them, rather than
the misleading materialism of modern
misapprehension." Contents: Earlier Creeds; Their

hearts and souls of men which we who follow the
Star are seeking to effect, first within ourselves,
and then, so far as may be, in others also. A
change is sorely needed; a change from self-
seeking.. This transformation means for the
average man a prodigious effort, and naturally
before he undertakes it he wants to know why he
should make it, what will be gained by it, and what
are his chances of success." Contents: The Wisdom

MASSEY, GERALD, A Book of the Beginnings Vols. I &
II, Containing an attempt to recover and
reconstitute the lost origins of the myths and
mysteries, types and symbols, religion and
language, with Egypt for the mouthpiece and Africa
as the birthplace. Vol. I, Egyptian origins in the
British Isles; Egypt; Comparative vocabulary of
English and Egyptian words; Hieroglyphics in
Britain; Egyptian origins in words; Egyptian water-
names; Egyptian names of personages; British
symbolical customs and Egyptian naming; Egyptian
deities in the British Isles; Egyptian place-names
and the record of the stones; Type-names of the
people. Vol. II; Comparative vocabulary of Hebrew
and Egyptian words; Hebrew cruxes with Egyptian
illustrations; Egyptian origins in the Hebrew
scriptures, religion, language, and letters; The
phenomenal origin of Jehovah-Elohim; Egyptian
origin of the Exodus; Moses and Joshua, or the two
Lion-Gods of Egypt; An Egyptian dynasty of Hebrew
deities identified from the monuments; The Egyptian
origin of the Jews traced from the monuments;
Comparative vocabulary of Akkado-Assyrian and
Egyptian words; Egyptian origins in the Akkado-
Assyrian language and mythology; Comparative
vocabulary of Maori and Egyptian words; African
origins of the Maori; Roots in Africa beyond Egypt.
Mr. Massey has collected together all the principal
facts known about Egypt, with a view to trace the
origin of mankind. Some portions of his theories
are undoubtedly correct, especially those which go
to prove that the Egyptians are the oldest known
historical race, that they are an African people of
a peculiar type, and by no means an Asiatic tribe
filtered through the Isthmus of Suez. Evidence of
their primitive development is to be found in their
physical type. The significance of this work was
not recognized in its own time over 100 years ago.
This book emphasizes the African origins of mankind

MCINTYRE, J. LEWIS, Giordano Bruno, "This volume
attempts to do justice to a philosopher who has
hardly received the consideration he deserves. He
is recognized by the more liberal-minded among
Italians as the greatest and most daring thinker
their country has produced. He has been recognized
as the prophet, if not as the actual founder, of
modern philosophy, and as one of the earliest
apostles of freedom of thought and of speech in
modern times." Part I of the book covers the life
of Bruno; Part II his philosophy. Sources of the

MEAD, G. R. S., Doctrine of the Subtle Body in
Western Tradition, "The notion that the physical
body of man is as it wee the exteriorization of an
invisible subtle embodiment of the life of the mind
is a very ancient belief. It is however, the
prevailing habit of skeptical rationalism of the
present day to dismiss summarily all such beliefs
of antiquity as the baseless dreams of a
prescientific age, and to dump them all
indiscriminately into the midden of exploded
superstitions. Not only do the acute intellects
who upheld it in the past, dispose one to a
favorable consideration of their plea; but I am
persuaded that, the more deeply modern research
penetrates into the more recondite regions of
biology, psycho-physiology and psychology, the more
readily will reason be inclined to welcome the
notion as a fertile working hypothesis to co-
ordinate a considerable number of the mental, vital
and physical phenomena of human personality which
otherwise remain on our hands as a confused and
inexplicable conglomerate." Contents: The Spirit-

short sketches among the Gnostics, mainly of the
first two centuries-a contribution to the study of
Christian Origins based on the most recently
discovered materials. "I have written so that the
man of one language only may read from the first to
the last page, without being forced to regret his
ignorance of other tongues; for I believe that the
subject is of profoundly human interest, and not
one of merely academical importance...my main
object has been to hand on what the earliest
Christian philosophers and teachers wrote and
thought. They seem to me to have written many
beautiful things, and I, for my part, have learned
through them to sense the work of the Great Master
in a totally new light." Contents: Prolegomena;

MEAD, G.R.S., Gospels and the Gospel, "This small
volume of short sketches is put forward with the
very modest purpose of roughly chronicling a moment
in the ever-changing fortunes of opinion occasioned
by the persistent inroads of scientific research
into the domain of theological traditions. The
chronicling is neither that of a scientist, nor of
a theologian, but of a friendly spectator, who, as
a devoted lover of both Science and Religion, has
no partisan interest to serve, and, as a believer
in the blessings of that true tolerance which
permits perfect liberty in all matters of opinion
and belief, has no desire to dictate to others what
their decision should be on any one of the many
controversial points touched upon." Contents: A

beautiful Hymn, which is the subject of this small

MEAD, G.R.S., Quests Old and New, "All the studies
or sketches in this volume are illustrative of the
quest of reality, the search for truth, or the
restless striving of the human soul for the
satisfaction of its needs, spiritual or
philosophical, mystical or psychical. The subjects
are gleaned from the past and present, from east

strange." Contents: The Way of the Spirit in

described as the preparation of materials to serve
for the historic, mythic, and mystic consideration
of the Origins of Christianity." "The serous

formerly taught only to those who had gone through

a soul vehicled or involved in a body, the home of
innumerable 'lives,' vehicled again in
infinitesimal cells, each the body of a soul. And
yet the soul of man is not composed of these
'lives'; the consciousness of man is not simply the
product or sum of their consciousness, nor is his
intelligence a compound of their intelligence. The
Soul of man is one, a self-centered unit,
indestructible, imperishable, self-motive; it dies
not nor comes into being." Contents: The World-

MEYER, CHARLES E. (AUTHOR) AND VOORHIS, HAROLD V.B.
(EDITOR),, Rituals of the First Four Grades:
Societatis Rosicrucian Rebpub\ Confoed\ America\,
Between 1881-1883 the Supreme Magus of the American
Masonic Rosicrucian Society (the predecessor of the
SRICF) issued four 'supplementary' rituals to its
Colleges. Between 1939-1942 Voorhis republished
three of them in issues Nos. 1-8 of his Rosicrucian
bulletin, 'The Rose Petal.' We have reprinted
Voorhis' material in facsimile and also located a
manuscript copy of the only ritual he omitted,
which we have typeset. This book includes,
therefore, the complete set of Rosicrucian rituals:
Zelator, Theoricus, Practicus and Philosophus.
This book will be especially interesting to
students of the Hermetic philosophy and to members
of such traditions as the G\D\ (RR et AC), OTO,
AMORC, BOTA, the Martinists, etc., and to
esoterically inclined Freemasons. 34 pages, ISBN 1-

analogues have been introduced only to support the
interpretation and to show that Blake's myth is not
the fantasy of a solitary dreamer, but the
culmination of a long tradition. As comprehension
grew it became increasingly apparent that Blake had
pondered the basic philosophical problems more
deeply than had been supposed. One might hope,
therefore, that the myth was not, as it had seemed,
chaotic and arbitrary, but a visionary presentation
of a systematic body of thought." Contents: The

deities, and legends." "Of the work, Pike himself
said: 'Oldest literary monuments and records of
human thought in the world and as the source and
origin of the great philosophical doctrines of the
world, but also, and far more, because they make
known to us a sublime theosophy and purely
philosophic faith believed in and understood by men
of our own blood and lineage at a very remote
period when they dwelt near the cradle of the
race." 340 pages, ISBN 1-56459-182-4

TAYLOR, REV. ROBERT, Syntagma of the Evidences of
the Christian Religion, Being a Vindication of the
Manifesto of the Christian Evidence Society,
Against the Assaults of the Christian Instruction
Society; "Prisoner in Oakham Jail for the
conscientious maintenance of the truths contained
in that Manifesto." "Thou hast in this Pamphlet
all the sufficient evidence, that can be adduced
for any piece of history a thousand years old, or
to prove an error of a thousand years standing,
that such a person as Jesus Christ never existed;
but that the earliest Christians meant the words to
be nothing more than a personification of the
principle of reason, of goodness, or that
principle, be it what it may, which may most
benefit mankind in the passage through life." 191

TAYLOR, THOMAS, Arguments of the Emperor Julian
Against the Christians, Translated from the Greek
Fragments preserved by Cyril, Bishop of Alexandria,
to which are added Extracts from the Other Works of
Julian Relative to the Christians by Thomas Taylor.
"The knowledge of the Gods is Virtue, Wisdom, and
Perfect Felicity, and Makes Us Resemble the Gods."
"I rejoice in the opportunity which is now afforded
me of printing this translation of the extracts
from a lost work of Julian against the Christians;
conceiving that it may be the means of benefitting
a certain few, who though they have been educated
in stupid opinions, have abandoned them, and who,
if properly instructed in, would immediately
embrace the genuine religion of mankind." 119

TAYLOR, THOMAS, Metamorphosis or Golden Ass of
Apuleius, Thomas Taylor's books are highly sought
after because of his remarkable ability to
translate seeming obscure texts into understandable
gems of light. "Apuleius, the celebrated author of
the following works, is undoubtedly the greatest of
the ancient Latin Platonists. He is not to be
classed among the chief of the disciples of Plato,
yet he will always maintain a very distinguished
rank among those who have delivered to us the more
accessible parts of that philosophy with consummate
eloquence. The most important parts of the
Metamorphosis, I feel, are the fable of Cupid and
Psyche, and the eleventh book, in which Apuleius
gives an account of his being initiated in the
mysteries of Isis and Osiris. I call these the
most important parts, because in the former, it
appears to me, the very ancient dogma of the pre-
existence of the human soul, its lapse from the
intelligible world to the earth, and its return
from thence to its pristine state of felicity, are
most accurately and beautifully adumbrated." 410

TAYLOR, THOMAS, Republic of Plato, This is Thomas
Taylor's adept translation of Plato's Republic.
Plato's "crowning achievement of art and
philosophy." "The idea that runs through the
Republic is that the individual presents almost the
same features and qualties as society, on a smaller
scale, and in his argument Plato first considers
the state and thence makes his deductions as to the
individual." "Besides the enduring value of the
Republic as a work of art, its philosophical and
ethical teaching is of particular interest in the
present disordered condition of social and
speculative ideas." 309 pages, ISBN 1-56459-024-0

TAYLOR, THOMAS, Two Orations of the Emperor Julian,
The Emperor Julian's Oration to the Sovereign Sun
and The Emperor Julian's Oration to the Mother of
the Gods. With a copious introduction, in which
some of the greatest arcana of the Grecian theology
are unfolded. "The Emperor Julian, the author of
the two following Orations, is well known in the
character of a Sovereign and an Apostate which he
once sustained, but very few are acquainted with
him in the characters of a Theologist and
Philosopher, which he displays through the whole of
his works, in a manner by no means contemptible or
weak." "Julian, however, appears to have possessed
as much of the philosophical genius as could
possibly be the portion of an Emperor of Rome, and
was doubtless as much superior to any other
Emperor, either prior or posterior to him, as the
philosophy and theology which he zealously
professed transcend all others in dignity and
worth." 145 pages, ISBN 1-56459-127-1

THOMSON, ARTHUR DYOTT, On Mankind their Origin and
Destiny (1872), This book is mentioned in several
of Manly P. Hall's works, most notably Secret
Teachings of All Ages. "The origin and destiny of
man are subjects which, though inseparably
connected with each other, are usually treated of
as distinct. In ancient times this was not the
case. Theology was based upon such science as
existed at that time, and Science and Theology were
consequently in harmony with each other. This
harmony has long ceased to exist." Partial

TROWBRIDGE, W.R.H., Cagliostro, The true role of
this splendid, tragic figure. Cagliostro,was a
Mystic, Mason and adept at magic, alchemy, and
psychic healing. He died at the hands of the Holy
Roman Inquisition. Although much has been written
against Cagliostro, Trowbridge, through his
meticulous researching, comes up with an all
together different picture. "The object of this
book is not so much an attempt to vindicate
Cagliostro as to correct and revise, if possible,
what I believe to be a false judgment of history."

adepts of the true philosophy, lovers of virtue,
lords of fortune, despisers of the world, whose
life is holiness in holiness, knowledge in
knowledge, and whose work consists in the relieving
of the sick and poor." This illuminating work
reveals the secrets of the Spagyric Art; the Grand
Magisterium, the true and Universal Medicine, the
Tinctures which transmute metals, and other deep
mysteries that make part of the Sacramentum Regis.

WAITE, ARTHUR EDWARD, Doctrine and Literature of
the Kabalah, "From whatever point of view it may be
approached, the Kabalah is of importance: it
connects with literatures which are greater than
itself and with pregnant issues of history. It is
part of the history of philosophy, and as such it
once entered into the thought of Europe. It is
responsible, broadly speaking, for all that strange
tissue of symbolism and ceremonial which made up
the magic of the Middle Ages; at a later period it
sought to transform alchemy; it tinctured many of
those conventional practices and beliefs which we
term superstition generically, and the guise in
which we know them is therefore chiefly a
Kabalistic guise." Contents: Post-Christian

of Thomas Vaughan constitute an explanatory
prolegomena not only to the general history of

of transcendental art, from the standpoint of a
Christian initiate, but they are special directed
to the interpretation of alchemical symbolism; they
claim to provide the intelligent reader with a

enlarges the theoretical scope of alchemical
