The word Atrahasis means extra wise and refers to the earliest known name of Noah, who built an ark and saved mankind from destruction. This is that story, from ancient Sumeria, which many scholars believe was the original from which all known flood stories came from. This was the most popular story in the ancient world and has survived for over five thousand years. It is the only one that all cultures, worldwide, seem to share. Why? Was there really a great flood? And why do we not explore the oldest known version carefully for clues? That is the purpose of this book, which also includes a number of other interesting flood story fragments and documents.
How and why did circumcision begin? Does every male child that comes into the world have a birth defect? What outdated beliefs have also caused women to suffer for centuries?

In this book he shares extensive research showing why he believes circumcision to be cruel, brutal and unnecessary, in addition to being completely unnatural.
This hymn or poem is an important Gnostic text and should be essential reading for anyone interested in early mystical literature. Also known as "The Hymn of the Pearl", it is an allegorical tale. Instead of an outer journey, as it first seems, it is interpreted here as a deeper, inner one. It contains a message that can be quite profound, depending on the reader's level of spiritual understanding. This book works on the inner psyche, creating an interactive balance, in some cases, between the upper (hidden) and lower (physical) worlds. That was the aim of many Gnostic stories, poems and parables. With that in mind, this book has much to offer.
One of the most in depth books on the Tarot ever written. Any person wishing to conduct readings with Tarot cards will find this book to be highly useful.

Buddhism began and flourished half a millennium before Jesus was ever born. Five hundred years is a long time for a religion to grow, so Jesus could have easily been influenced by Buddhist teachings as proposed by this book. There were many years in the life of Jesus that remain unaccounted for. Goddard reveals evidence that the Essenes, of whom Jesus had contact with and may have been a member himself, had strong Buddhist influences. Reveals that the parallels between Jesus and the Buddha are more than just a coincidence.
Doyle was the author of Sherlock Holmes, and a spiritualist from the early twentieth century. He predicted, with this book, the coming of a spiritually based religion influenced by the spiritualist movement of his time, which included channeling, seances, automatic writing, and other strange, psychic occurrences. He investigated these things thoroughly and believed these realms held more answers than any standard religion. The Old Revelation, Doyle says, has lost its power through bigotry, mismanagement, materialism, and claims of infallibility that no longer hold up. New discoveries await us, and one can start to explore them now by reading this classic work.
This book originally appeared in Crowley's larger volume, The Equinox, in 1912. A complete and thorough study of all the cards. Recommended to serious students of the tarot.
