At the feet of the Guru

Outside the Circles of Time
by Kenneth Grant

This enhanced edition of Outside the Circles of Time first published in 1980, newly typeset by Starfire Publishing with additional colour illustrations, now forms the fifth of the nine volumes of Kenneth Grant´s initiated survey of the giants of twentieth century occultism. He draws upon his meetings with the artist of the occult, Austin Osman Spare, as with occultist to demonstrate the existence of superior alien Intelligences with whom he and other established rapport. Now the current interest in such surreal phenomena and psionic science confirms many of the claims that consciousness can and does exist independently of the physical brain. Outside the Circles of Time explores a network of such ideas, from Blavatsky´s Secret Doctrine, Crowley´s Book of the Law, Lovecraft´s Necronomicon, and Frater Achad´s researches, to the work of Andahadna, a contemporary Pristess of Maat. Hardbound in black cloth with a dustjacket. 320 pages. 40,0 euros


At the feet of the Guru

At the Feet of the Guru – Book
by Kenneth Grant

Collected for the first time as one volume are these penetrating essays on contemporary figures in Eastern Mysticism which Kenneth Grant wrote from the early 1950s onwards. Published originally in various Asian journals as well as the 1970s encyclopaedia series Man, Myth & Magic, they concern Sages such as Ramana Maharshi, Pagal Haranath, Ramakrishna, Anandamayi Ma, Sivananda, and others. At the core of these essays is the crucial insight of Advaita, a Sanskrit word meaning ‘not divided’, and associated with the Indian school of Advaita Vedanta and the work of perhaps its most famous exponent, the Sage Sri Shankacharya. It is an insight which has been expounded most succinctly in modern times in the works of Sri Ramana Maharshi, of Tiruvannamalai, who is the subject of several of the essays in the present volume. Central to these particular essays is his technique of Atma Vichara, or enquiry into the Self, a practice leading to the dissolution of the veils of illusion which obscure the singularity and universality of Awareness, often epitomised as Cosmic Consciousness. Hardbound in black cloth with a dustjacket. 132 pages. 40,0 euros



Convolvulus and other poems

Convolvulus and other poems – Book
by Kenneth Grant

Convolvulus contains all of the previously published poems from Black To Black and The Gull`s Beak, plus the hitherto unpublished collection Convolvulus: Poems of Love and The Other Darkness. Together, these poems span the years from the nineteen-forties to the present day. Integrated with the poems are 21 sketches by Austin Osman Spare. 192 pages. First edition of 750 copies.

Remembering Aleister Crowley

Remembering Aleister Crowley - Book
by Kenneth Grant

Dedicated to the memory of David Curwen, this is Kenneth Grant's memoir of his relations with Crowley, drawing on letters and diary entries. Grant first made contact with Crowley in 1944, first visiting him at the Bell Inn, Aston Clinton. A few months later, in 1945, Grant went to stay with Crowley for several weeks at Netherwood, Hastings, acting as unpaid Secretary in exchange for magical tuition. It was in the course of this visit that Crowley gave him the portrait of Lam. This is an affectionate and fascinating memoir, giving an insight into Crowley not conveyed in more formal biographies. Many of Crowley's letters to Grant are illustrated, several of them giving the Words of the Equinoxes. In the years since Crowley's death Grant has gone on to develop and consolidate his own body of work, and Crowley's work has been a major influence - though only one amongst several, and tempered by Grant's own magical and mystical experience. Hardbound in black cloth with a dustjacket, 76 pages. 40,0 euros

Snakewand

Snakewand/The Darker Strain - Book
by Kenneth Grant

Snakewand and The Darker Strain, and other tales to follow, were written in the wake of rituals performed over a period of seven years in an occult Lodge named New Isis. Many were the magicians and mediums who passed through the Lodge, and some of them feature in these tales. Their mundane personalities may not have appeared unusual to casual observation, but when elongated and siderealised by the unique perpectives which their magical roles ceated for them they achieved an apotheosis, an epiphany. This extraordinary phenomenon demonstrated the heights and the depth which human nature is capaple of scaling, and of fathoming, in the delirious frenzy inspired by their art. The tales are likewise orientated to the other side of reality rarely glimpsed outside a magically charged Circle. First edition of 1000 copies. Hardbound in black cloth with a dustjacket. 168 pages. 40,0 Euros


Liber Lilith

Liber Lilith – Book
by Donald Tyson

Liber Lilith is a powerful and disturbing book which charts the disintegration of a German occultist, Karl Steiger, who in mysterious circumstances comes across an ancient Gnostic grimoire, long considered lost. This contains the stunning revelation that it was Lilith, Queen of Hell and Mother of all Demons, who fashioned Adam from the clay of the earth, and who visited Eve in the form of a great serpent to teach her the secret wisdom of Heaven. The grimoire reveals in seductive detail a system of sex magic taught to mankind by Lilith, by which she may be summoned as both a lover and a teacher. The book opens with an introduction by the editor of Steiger’s journal, and follows with a reproduction of the grimoire itself. Next comes the working journal of Steiger, revealing the progress of the ill-starred occultist as he discovers this lost necromantic grimoire, steeps himself in its shadows, and is beguiled by the glamours of Lilith. He is compelled to put into practice the obscene rituals as set out in the grimoire, and he gradually succumbs to madness as Lilith answers his call and he is enmeshed ever deeper in her dark and sinister web. Softcover book, 320 pages. 25,0 euros
