chassa de Russie, Napoléon le tenait pour responsable de la Révolution française, Casanova le faisait suivre, Louis XVI l'embastilla à la suite de l'affaire du Collier... Grand guérisseur mystique pour les uns, dangereux charlatan pour les autres, le destin de Cagliostro épousa et influença celui de l'Europe entière. L'historien Iain McCalman nous le conte à travers sept épisodes-clefs : le franc-maçon, le nécromancien, le chaman, le copte, le prophète, le rajeunisseur, l'hérétique. Adoré puis haï des plus grands souverains d'Europe, c'est finalement son rôle dans la secte des Illuminati qui le conduira à sa perte..." -- 4e de couvHaunted castle on Hallows Eve

Par Marcel Odier. 2007
"La télépathie et la voyance existent-elles vraiment ou sont-elles dues au hasard voire à des manipulations douteuses? Et la télékinésie,…
qui permettrait à des individus de déplacer des objets par la seule force de la pensée, est-ce une réalité ou une supercherie? Ce sont ces questions troublantes que Marcel Odier développe dans son livre. Il ne suffit pas de répertorier les cas spontanés pour se faire une opinion valable, il faut les susciter, les reproduire en laboratoire et étudier les conditions dans lesquelles ils peuvent apparaître. C'est la tâche à laquelle s'est vouée la Fondation Odier de psycho-physique. Son but principal est d'étudier les relations entre conscience, matière et espace-temps, afin d'analyser les éventuelles occurences de précognition, de clairvoyance ou de télépathie. La physique classique, celle de Newton qui est encore enseignée dans les lycées, ne tolérait pas ces phénomènes. Elle prônait un déterminisme absolu, où tous les événements devaient s'enchaîner inévitablement de cause à effet. En revanche, la physique moderne, avec la théorie des quanta, admet l'aléatoire, le hasard, qui se manifeste entre autres dans le jeu des particules élémentaires. À plus forte raison la matière animée, la vie, est sujette au hasard. Mais ce hasard, insensible à toute action physique, ne pourrait-il pas être influencé par le psychisme, par l'esprit?

alimentent la démonologie : c'est par l'accouplement avec Satan que les sorcières obtiendraient leurs pouvoirs maléfiques. La sorcellerie : un "crime" de femmes? Elles ont fourni 80% des condamnés au bûcher. Pour Armelle Le Bras-Chopard, loin d'être secondaires, la féminité et le fantasme de sa dangerosité seraient le mobile même de cette persécution. Un phénomène plus politique que religieux, aboutissant à la construction au masculin de l'Etat moderne, et qui disparaîtra une fois les femmes assujetties sous la Loi. Aujourd'hui, avec la place grandissante des femmes dans l'espace public, les sorcières seraient-elles de retour? Pourquoi avoir peur de la mixité des sexes? Il ne s'agit pas de "partager le gâteau", simplement d'en modifier la recette, sans craindre qu'une sorcière y introduise quelque poison diabolique!" -- 4e de couvGolf in the Kingdom (An Esalen book)

Murphy describes a phenomenal day and night in 1956 when, enroute to India, he stopped off in Scotland to play…
a round of golf. There he met and played with golf professional Shivas Irons, who altered Murphy's perception, leaving him shaken and exalted.

All three volumes of the occult classic available together as a deluxe boxed set for the first time• Volume I…
includes translations of rare texts alongside rites, practices, and magical knowledge, including instructions for creating an etheric double, speaking words of power, interacting with entities, and creating a &“magical chain&” • Volume II offers studies of mystery traditions throughout history and shares authentic initiatic wisdom and a rigorous selection of initiatory exercises • Volume III explores esoteric practices for individual development and realization of immortal and divine potential, handed down from a primordial tradition In 1927 Julius Evola and other leading Italian esotericists formed the mysterious UR group. The purpose of this group was to study and practice ancient rituals from the mystery traditions of the world, both East and West, in order to attain a state of superhuman consciousness and power to allow them to act magically on the world. They produced a monthly journal containing techniques for spiritual realization, accounts of personal experiences, translations of ancient texts, and original essays on the occult. Many years later, in 1971, Evola gathered these essays into three volumes. Volume I collects rites, practices, and magical knowledge, including instructions for creating an etheric double, speaking words of power, using fragrances, interacting with entities, and creating a &“magical chain.&” It also includes translations of rare texts such as the Tibetan teachings of the Thunderbolt Diamond Path, the Mithraic mystery cult&’s &“Grand Papyrus of Paris,&” and the Greco-Egyptian magical text De Mysteriis. Volume II shares authentic initiatic wisdom and a rigorous selection of initiatory exercises, including instructions for creating the diaphanous body of the Opus magicum, and establishing initiatic consciousness after death. It also offers studies of mystery traditions throughout history. Volume III, more than the others, bears the personal stamp of Julius Evola. It explores esoteric practices for individual development, handed down from a primordial tradition and discernable in alchemy, Hermetism, religious doctrines, Tantra, Taoism, Buddhism, Vedanta, and the pagan mysteries of the West. Available together as a deluxe boxed set for the first time in English, these volumes present the steps necessary to purify the soul with the light of knowledge and the fire of dedication, as well as allowing the reader to be liberated from conventional dogmas—religious, political, scientific, and psychological—and see with the clearer eye of realization.Stanislav Grof, LSD Pioneer: From Pharmacology to Archetypes
