Product Description
by Frater R. C. (Author)
An analysis of the alchemy of the soul through the night of senses through the application of practical kabbalah, hermetic philosophy and enochian magic through a comparative study of the self in Saint John of the Cross' DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL and Kenneth Grant's NIGHTSIDE OF EDEN
ABOUT THIS SERIES"Yoga of the West" is an old name scholars gave to Kabbalah and western forms of mysticism as a general classification among certain schools. Given the popularity of such forms of spirituality today it makes sense for a series like this to emphasize the uniformity and universal value of differing cultural spiritual modalities, including religious vogues as seen in the endless vicissitudes of mainstream churches and religions. Many in the west seek mystical release, ecstatic practical spirituality without abandoning their familiar western culture. Esotericism and the western mystery tradition has suffered arguably more liminality than many eastern schools. Whilst alchemy developed in Arabic culture however, and Kabbalah in the Hebrew, Christianity throughout much of its existence has struggled with its own mystical core. This series then brings back to the light from the darkness the esoteric magic, paganism & alchemy of the western mystery tradition for anyone called to this difficult path of human transformation. - #777 Frater R∴C∴, 2018
