The Mother of Theosophy: The Life and Legacy of H. P. Blavatsky , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 73min
Among the New Age Movement and modern spiritualists, one name stands above the rest: Helena Petrovna (H.P.) Blavatsky. Blavatsky is best known today for co-founding the Theosophical School, a religious school of thought that she labeled "the archaic Wisdom-Religion, the esoteric doctrine once known in every ancient country having claims to civilization", and nobody was more qualified than Blavatsky to forge such a creation. During her second marriage, Blavatsky traveled to various parts of the world, including Egypt, France, Germany, Mexico, South America, Canada, and India, absorbing all the diverse cultures, customs, religions, and philosophies she came across. Once she had extensively studied all of the different movements she had experienced, Blavatsky went about synthesizing Theosophy and creating a worldview that offered explanations for the origin, workings and ultimate fate of every aspect of mankind's existence, in order to "form a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of Humanity, without distinction of race, creed, sex, caste or color." Blavatsky did so by becoming an incredibly prolific writer, and some of her works have become cult classics, particularly The Secret Doctrine and Isis Unveiled. These works included her unique blend of science, esoteric ideas, the occult, and ancient religions and philosophies, and they remain popular today. The Mother of Theosophy: The Life and Legacy of H.P. Blavatsky profiles the life, works, and legacy of the influential scholar, writer, philosopher and theologian, examining her movement and its origins. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Secret Life of Houdini: The Making of America's First Superhero, Hörbuch, Digital, 369min
Handcuff King. Escape Artist. International Superstar. Since his death in 1926, Harry Houdini's life has been chronicled in books, in films, and on television. Now, in this groundbreaking biography, renowned magic expert William Kalush and best-selling writer Larry Sloman team up to find the man behind the myth. Drawing from millions of pages of research, they describe in vivid detail the passions that drove Houdini to perform ever-more-dangerous feats, his secret life as a spy, and a pernicious plot to subvert his legacy. After years of struggling on the dime-museum circuit, Harry Houdini got a break that thrust him into the spotlight, performing for royalty and commanding vast sums. At a time when spy agencies frequently co-opted amateurs, Houdini went to London and developed a relationship with a man who would run MI-5; for the next several years, he traveled to Germany and Russia and routinely reported his findings. After World War I, Houdini set out to infiltrate and expose the seamy world of fake spirit mediums, triggering the wrath of a group of fanatical spiritualists led by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Death threats became an everyday occurrence, but the group would pose an even greater danger to Houdini's legacy. As exciting as any good thriller, The Secret Life of Houdini traces the arc of the master magician's life from desperate poverty to worldwide legend and initiates the listener into the arcane world of professional magic.

Rituals: A Faye Longchamp Mystery, Book 8 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 592min
Faye Longchamp doesn't believe in ghosts. But she's an archaeologist - dead people are her life. While working in Rosebower, a rural New York town founded by spiritualists, Faye is surrounded by people who talk to the dead on a regular basis. When the most influential spiritualist in town, Tilda Armistead, invites Faye and her project assistant to commune with the dead, she can't say no. An hour later, her crystal ball shows Faye things no rational mind can explain. Tilda is dead. The evidence says that someone trapped Tilda in a small room, nailing its one door shut before setting her Victorian home on fire. There is no possible way for Tilda to have escaped the blaze, let alone drive for miles before finding Faye and dying in her arms. Yet Tilda did. How? And why? In this bizarre community, Faye finds herself surrounded by people who had reason to kill Tilda - her estranged daughter who may be the heir to the Armistead fortune; the daughter's husband, a stage magician with a long history of making things vanish; a rich developer with dreams of a ghostly Disneyland project in Rosebower, a project which Tilda fought with her considerable political clout; and the town's holistic doctor whose mysterious herbal potions are consumed by customers far and wide. As Faye watches the psychics and charlatans jockey for power, and sends a cry for help to her shrewd husband Joe, Tilda's sister, Myrna, is slowly dying. Will Rosebower reveal its secrets to Faye before more goes up in flames? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cassandra Campbell.

Auras: A Beginner's Guide on How to Feel, See & Strengthen the Auric Field , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min
A clear-cut guide to the auric field and how to develop it. The most agreed upon origins of the word "aura" can be traced back to Greek and Latin roots with the meanings "breeze", "breath", "wind", or "air". In the mid-19th century, the term started to take on a different connotation in Europe, and was used to describe the "characteristic impression" made by a person. A few years later, spiritualists adopted it to convey the subtle field of energy that radiates off beings. Hindu scholars insist that "aura" actually comes from Sanskrit, and refers to the spokes in a wheel. The imagery of a spoke originating from a hub is a parallel to how the aura radiates from the physical body. For the average person, the aura extends approximately three to five feet from the borders of the physical body. It is densest at the section closest to the flesh, and gradually becomes more transparent and indistinct the farther away it goes. It can be described as a cloud or flame that gradually fades out of the field of vision. During the course of the book we will explore: The nature of the human aura and its attributes How the auric field plays a part in your spiritual evolution The different layers and colors of the aura and their meanings How to start sensing auras How you can learn to see them Cleansing your field of negative energy Strengthening and maintaining good auric health And more!

Psychic Awakening: A Complete Guide to Achieve the Psychic Awareness and Develop Psychic Empath. Expand Psychic Power Through a Journey from Unconsciousness to Consciousness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 200min
Many people have probably heard the word "psychic" and "psychic abilities." However, few know how these abilities can actually help you in your everyday life. Most of the superstitions that are passed around from generation to generation are derived from misinformation and crude misunderstandings. Psychic abilities have rarely been used for dangerous or negative purposes; these abilities help you connect with the world around you and help achieve inner peace and connection with others. You have most likely heard psychics referred to as mediums, wizards, spiritualists, necromancers, witches, and clairvoyants. Depending on the time in history you look back on, the treatment of psychics has changed. Sometimes psychics were consulted by kings and royal families, attended to the sick and elderly and presided as the wise one of the tribe. Other times, psychics were cast out, banned and, at times, burned for their abilities. This happened because for individuals of that time, that which they did not understand, they feared.Today, psychic abilities are treated much differently; psychics are able to advertise their services publicly, and many people obtain their services to ask questions about life, love and loved ones who have passed away. There is a huge misunderstanding when it comes to psychic abilities. Psychics are not "fortune tellers," nor are they the gatekeepers to the dead. Using psychic abilities allows you to open your mind and use more of your brain to try and connect to the outside world. Currently, humans use about 10-15 percent of the brain power that is within their control. Psychics are able to use more; imagine the capabilities if we could use 100 percent of our brain capacity. Perhaps it would be too overwhelming, but the mind is amazing and perplexing, and we may never know the brain's full potential.We will cover what psychics are, what they do, where they came from and how to develop your own psychic abilities./p ungekürzt.

Awaken Your Inner Phoenix: How to Harness the Power of the Five World Mantras , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 127min
We live in a diverse and multicultural world where spiritualists use their thoughts and prayers to awaken abundance, joy and alchemy in their lives. What if the mantras we use in our times of common-union (“communion”) could, in fact, be used synergistically? The Five World Mantras are Om, Amen, Allah, AUM and Tao. Billions of Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists and Taoists have used them for thousands of years to empower their thoughts and prayers. The author uses his spiritual and 20-year scientific background to show the listener how these words not only resonate together...but within us all. Based on their own root meanings from the known sacred textbooks when we see and experience these words working together in a "Phoenix Sequence", our prayers and meditations become synergistically and abundantly transcendent. This book first lists many of the symbolic representations The Phoenix has had in various ancient cultures (Chinese, Arabic, Greek, Christian...). For instance, it describes the three definitions of "The Tao" - (Taoism). The phonetic and palindromic power of the mantra "Allah" - (Islam). A universal and dynamic definition of "Amen" - (Christianity). It explores how "Om" and Quantum Science are related – (Buddhism and Hinduism). And it details the three levels of consciousness that "AUM" can lead our thoughts to - (Judaism). Most of all... this book explores how a particular sequence of these mantras can awaken an enlightened and immortal Phoenix within ourselves. The listener also learns about "The Clock of The Twelve Paired Mantras". A much-needed spiritual tool in today's world! It shows how our Five World Mantras can also awaken both The Lunar and Solar aspects of who we are as human beings. Each mantra (Amen, Om, Allah, Tao and AUM) is beautiful and powerful on its own. But, when they work together in pairs, Trinities or together as all five, then we can consciously trigger Universal Abundance. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Xavier Clayton.

Guitar: An American Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 679min
What was it about a small, humble folk instrument that allowed it to become an American icon? The guitar represents freedom, the open road, protest and rebellion, the blues, youth, lost love, and sexuality. Tim Brookes explores with adoration these ideas and how they became entwined with the history of America. Shortly before Tim Brookes' 50th birthday, baggage handlers destroyed his guitar, his 22-year-old traveling companion. His wife promised to replace it with the guitar of his dreams, but Tim discovered that a dream guitar is built, not bought. He set out to find someone to make him the perfect guitar, a quest that ended up a on a dirt road in the Green Mountains of Vermont, where an amiable curmudgeon master guitarmaker, Rick Davis, took a rare piece of cherry wood and went to work with saws and rasps. Meanwhile, Tim set out to write a kind of chronicle of the guitar, as he said, "not a catalog of makes and models, nor a genealogy of celebrities, but an attempt to understand this curious relationship between the instrument and the people involved with it, and how that has grown and changed over time". He discovered that the instrument, first arriving with conquistadors and the colonists, ended up in the hands of a variety of people: miners and society ladies, lumberjacks and presidents' wives, Hawaiians, African-Americans, Cajuns, jazz players, spiritualists, singing cowboys of the silver screen, and bluegrass and Beatles fans. Inventors and crackpots tinkered with it. In time, it became America's instrument, its soundtrack. When Tim wasn't breathing over Rick's shoulder, he was trying to unravel the symbolic associations a guitar holds for so many of us, musicians and non-musicians alike. His journey takes him across the country talking to historians, curators, and guitarmakers. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tim Brookes.

An Unnatural Vice (eBook, ePUB)
In the sordid streets of Victorian London, unwanted desire flares between two bitter enemies brought together by a deadly secret. Crusading journalist Nathaniel Roy is determined to expose spiritualists who exploit the grief of bereaved and vulnerable people. First on his list is the so-called Seer of London, Justin Lazarus. Nathaniel expects him to be a cheap, heartless fraud. He doesn't expect to meet a man with a sinful smile and the eyes of a fallen angel-or that a shameless swindler will spark his desires for the first time in years. Justin feels no remorse for the lies he spins during his séances. His gullible clients simply bore him. Hostile, disbelieving, utterly irresistible Nathaniel is a fascinating challenge. And as their battle of wills and wits heats up, Justin finds he can't stop thinking about the man who's determined to ruin him. But Justin and Nathaniel are linked by more than their fast-growing obsession with one another. They are both caught up in an aristocratic family's secrets, and Justin holds information that could be lethal. As killers, fanatics, and fog close in, Nathaniel is the only man Justin can trust-and, perhaps, the only man he could love.
