Sinopsis

In "A Treatise on Bread, and Bread-making," Sylvester Graham presents a compelling exploration of the essential role of bread in human nutrition and health. This seminal work delves into the art and science of bread-making, advocating for the use of whole grains and natural ingredients as a means to promote vitality. Graham's writing embodies the transcendentalist literary style, blending scientific investigation with philosophical musings on health and well-being, which positions the text within the 19th-century social reform movement aiming to enhance dietary practices through moral and health-conscious living. Sylvester Graham, a prominent figure in the antebellum health reform movement, was informed by a combination of his medical training and personal convictions regarding dietary reform. Known as the father of the vegetarian movement in America, Graham championed a holistic approach to health, seeing links between diet, morality, and physical wellness. His beliefs were deeply rooted in the notion that proper eating can lead to spiritual improvement, which undoubtedly shaped the content and purpose of this treatise, aiming to educate the public on the merits of a nourishing diet. Readers interested in the intersections of nutrition, health, and social reform will find "A Treatise on Bread, and Bread-making" not only informative but inspirational. Graham's passionate philosophy on food choices serves as a precursor to contemporary discussions on natural diets and sustainable eating practices, making this work relevant even today.

    In Old World Witchcraft, noted author Raven Grimassi covers totally new territory--in his work and in the world of popular witchcraft books published in the last few decades.This book is actually about “an enchanted worldview,” one that has not necessarily been inherited from the beliefs and practices of any particular region and one which is available to us today.The “Old World” in the title is actually about a magical view of the Plant Kingdom and the spirits attached to it. While Grimassi’s previous books discuss the cultural expressions and commonality of witchcraft beliefs and practices in general, this book penetrates much deeper.Old World Witchdraft reveals rarely discussed topics such as the concept of Shadow as the organic memory of the earth. Readers will learn rooted techniques that possess power because these ways have always been connected to it. They will learn methods of interfacing with the ancestral current and with the organic memory of the earth. Through these they can connect with the timeless arts and learn methods of empowerment directly from the ancient source.Totally new information about familiar tools is presented. For example, the mortar and pestle is a tool for spell casting, a device that creates interfacing with plant spirits and with shadow, and a focal point for veneration of the Plant Kingdom. Grimassi also presents the art of using plant ashes for magical sigil work.This book is for people who have had their fill of books that say the same things over and over, who want to take the next step, and who are eager for the more rooted ways that have remained largely hidden.

    This book is about real magick, effecting real change, in a real world. There are some books on magick that teach it purely as spiritual advancement. There are others that teach it as a form of psychological self-help that effects only inner change. While magick can and should be both of these, it is something more. The Sorcerer's Secrets is about success in practical magick; it is a book that aims at change in both the outer and inner worlds.Beyond a mere spell book or training course, The Sorcerer's Secrets is a field manual on successful sorcery written by a professional sorcerer. The first part of the book lays out the qualities, concepts, and exercises necessary to attempt practical magick. The second part presents clear strategies for tackling almost any type of issue with sorcery.In this book you will learn how to: Attack problems from multiple angles, not just by casting a spell.Blend mundane and magickal action to ensure success.Figure out whether what you are doing is working.Fix it if it isn't.Go beyond readings, into magickal intelligence-gathering.Influence the minds of other people.Work most effectively on behalf of others.The Sorcerer's Secrets will help rescue the art of Magick from those who have ignored, downplayed, or just outright denied the existence of practical sorcery in favor of arcane titles, intangible results, and fantasy attainments.
