"The Index of Prohibited Books: Four Centuries of Struggle over Word and Image for the Greater Glory of God" by Robin Vose
"The first comprehensive history of the Catholic Church’s notorious Index, with resonance for ongoing debates over banned books, censorship, and free speech. For more than four hundred years, the Catholic Church’s Index Librorum Prohibitorum struck terror into the hearts of authors, publishers, and booksellers around the world, while arousing ridicule and contempt from many others, especially those in Protestant and non-Christian circles. Biased, inconsistent, and frequently absurd in its attempt to ban objectionable texts of every conceivable description—with sometimes fatal consequences—the Index also reflected the deep learning and careful consideration of many hundreds of intellectual contributors over the long span of its storied evolution. This book constitutes the first full study of the Index...>>

"Spiritual Dimensions of Eye Floaters: A Seer’s View, Open Eye Meditation, Ecstasy, Carlos Castaneda, Near-Death Experiences" by Floco Tausin
"We all have them, most of us see them, but only a few people pay attention to them: the scattered, transparent and mobile dots and strands in our field of vision. In ophthalmology, they are called "eye floaters" and explained as vitreous opacities. But is this explanation correct? In this book, the author Floco Tausin follows the seers’ experience that eye floaters are not a cloudiness of the vitreous humour, but a shining structure and an expression of our state of consciousness. In this collection of previously published and revised texts, the author explores spiritual dimensions of eye floaters. The focus is on seer Nestor’s view that floaters are first appearances of the shining...>>

"The Art and Practice of Caballa Magic" by Ophiel (2004 edition)
"Caballa magic is no longer an unintelligible mystery. Ophiel's classic Art and Practice of Caballa Magic is a clear, lively, and practical guide to occult magic. "Dion Fortune wrote a great book about the Caballa but told nothing about the practices. This book starts to tell about how to use the Tree of Life, or Practices. It reveals what Dion Fortune left out because she received her knowledge from a lodge and was not at liberty to give it out. I received the knowledge from the inner sources and give it all out freely. Use it and test it and find out for yourself." —Ophiel Other books merely offer a theoretical explanation of Caballa—Ophiel teaches readers...>>
