Summary

Plato was a philosopher in Ancient Greece. He was an essential figure in the development of philosophy, especially the Western tradition, and he founded the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world.

Plato's dialogues have been used (and are still used) to teach a range of subjects, including philosophy, logic, ethics, rhetoric, religion and mathematics. His lasting themes include Platonic love, the theory of forms, the five regimes, innate knowledge, among others. His theory of forms launched a unique perspective on abstract objects, and led to a school of thought called Platonism.

Throughout the book, Jason provides [information] not only on protection but also on recognizing the symptoms of attack and creating early warning systems to alert you of magickal attacks.” —Mat Auryn, author of Psychic Witch   You Could Be the Target of a Spell or Curse and Not Even Know It   Everyone, whether they practice witchcraft or not, is susceptible to unwanted spells and curses.

Like the cunning men and women of old, you can now defend yourself and your loved ones against even the strongest attacks.   This edition features a new introduction by the author and updates to the chapters.

Through the guidance of King Lamus, a master adept, they use the application of practical Magick to free themselves from addiction.
