    Book SynopsisA paradigm-shifting book, arguing that, far from supporting male privilege, the Qur'an actually encourages the full equality of women and men.Trade Review`This is an original and, at times, ground-breaking piece of scholarship.' John L. Esposito, University Professor and Founding Director of the Alwaleed Center for Muslim-Christian Understanding, Georgetown University; `[A] brilliantly executed work . . . A new generation of scholar-activists . . . will take cues from such a study to open up interpretations and modes of Islamic praxis that will resonate with the avowedly non-repressive divine intentions for Muslim and other faith communities worldwide.' Arab Studies Journal; `Barlas's thesis is irresistible: the Qur'an itself has a very positive view of women whereas patriarchal culture caused the various interpreters of the Qur'an to read their own biases into the text to justify the oppression of women. Barlas quotes from a smorgasbord of Islamic scholars, resulting at times in a choppy read that drowns out her own more appealing voice. The opening chapter is bogged down in such quoting, and also in excessive worrying over her critics on either side of the debate. Despite these flaws, this book is loaded with interesting facts about Islam that may even surprise Muslims' Publishers Weekly; `A refreshing read ... a unique analysis that underscores the exclusively the role of women in Islam' New Arab

  • The Flowering Wand: Rewilding the Sacred

    Inner Traditions Bear and Company The Flowering Wand: Rewilding the Sacred

    3 in stock

    Book SynopsisA deep exploration of the regenerative and magical secrets of sacred masculinity hidden in familiar myths both ancient and modern• Reveals the restorative fungi archetype of Osiris, the Orphic mysteries as an underground mycelium linking forests and people, how Dionysus teaches us about invasive species and playful sexuality, and the ecology of Jesus as depicted in his nature-focused parables• Liberates Tristan, Merlin, and the Grail legends from the bounds of Campbell’s hero’s journey and invites the masculine into more nuanced, complex ways of dealing with trauma, growth, and self-knowledgeLong before the sword-wielding heroes of legend readily cut down forests, slaughtered the old deities, and vanquished their enemies, there were playful gods, animal-headed kings, mischievous lovers, trickster harpists, and vegetal magicians with flowering wands. As eco-feminist scholar Sophie Strand discovered, these wilder, more magical modes of the masculine have always been hidden in plain sight. Sharing the culmination of eight years of research into myth, folklore, and the history of religion, Strand leads us back into the forgotten landscapes and hidden secrets of familiar myths, revealing the beautiful range of the divine masculine, including expressions of male friendship, male intimacy, and male creative collaboration. In discussing Dionysus and Osiris, Strand encourages us to think like an ecosystem instead of like an individual. She connects dying, vegetal gods to the virtuous cycle of composting and decay, highlighting the ways in which mushrooms can restore soil and heal polluted landscapes. Exploring esoteric Christianity, the author celebrates the Gnostic Jesus of the Gospel of Thomas, imagining the ecology that the Rabbi Yeshua would have actually been referencing in his nature-focused parables. Strand frees Tristan, Merlin, and the Grail legends from the bounds of Campbell’s hero’s journey and invites the masculine into more nuanced, complex ways of dealing with trauma, growth, and self-knowledge. Strand reseeds our minds with new visions of male identity and shows how each of us, regardless of gender, can develop a matured ecological empathy and witness a blossoming of sacred masculine powers that are soft, curious, connective, and celebratory.Trade Review“If we want to locate the underlying source of our civilization’s headlong rush to destruction, we must dig deeper than capitalism, deeper even than the Western worldview, until we encounter the bedrock of patriarchy. In this exuberant tableau of resurrection, Strand reveals how even our most archetypal myths have been molded and devitalized to fit the patriarchal straitjacket, and Strand lays the groundwork for a regenerated masculinity--one that is liberated to explore life-affirming possibilities grounded in the deep wisdom of long-buried ancient lore.” * Jeremy Lent, author of The Web of Meaning *“Sophie Strand’s beautiful and poetic book is a game changer. With The Flowering Wand as a tool, it is possible to rewrite the mostly traumatizing patriarchal narratives Western males so often base their identity in and reconnect them with the underlying story of a cultural and natural deep history of mutual transformation with other beings beyond all modern binaries.” * Andreas Weber, biologist, philosopher, and author of Enlivenment: Toward a Poetics for the Anthropoc *“Sophie Strand writes with the urgency of a prophet and the musicality of a bard. Weaving myth together with botany, history with theology, her virtuosic linguistic skeins would do her beloved mycorrhizae proud. In The Flowering Wand, the masculine appears as lover, as partner, as inspirer, as friend. This is a book important in its joy, powerful in its love--exuberant in its curiosity. Taking us by the hand, Strand leads us into a garden of delights: tarot cards, ancient scriptures, Shakespearean comedies, sky gods, the Minotaur, the Milky Way. Strand holds the gates of wonder open and love comes flowing out. These are the birth waters breaking. Rejoice! The masculine is reborn.” * Amanda Yates Garcia, author of Initiated: Memoir of a Witch *“A magnificent weave of ecology and myth--it is evident there’s some pretty rich dirt, culturally speaking as well as actual dirt no doubt, under the fingernails that have written this lyrical journey. A book filled with magical insight, revealing Strand’s wondrous curiosity and impressive learnings of the complex relationships between humans and nature.” * Sam Lee, musician and author of The Nightingale *“The wisdom in this book is almost beyond expression. Sophie Strand’s The Flowering Wand reveals the full potency and profligacy of myth.” * Manchán Magan, author of Thirty-Two Words for Field: Lost Words of the Irish Landscape *“Sophie Strand’s work is a must-read for lovers of mythology and the Earth. Her work is poetic yet practical. It’s whimsical and transportive, yet it’s describing the world around you, inviting you back home to the reality of this mystical life and world we inhabit.” * Annabel Gat, author of The Astrology of Love and Sex and The Moon Sign Guide *“The Flowering Wand is a ‘wild thing’ and seeks out other forms of recombination and transformative fusion and gives them life. The surprising conclusion is, we humans have always been more-than-human. Are you wild enough to find out why?” * Glenn Albrecht, Ph.D., philosopher and environmentalist *“Sophie Strand’s new book offers a luminous exploration of the radical mythic underpinning of the masculine narrative. Here the autocratic sky gods and sword-wielding dominators of people and landscapes are replaced by a dynamic ensemble of dancers, lovers, and liberators. Strand reminds us how these actors--from the Minotaur to Merlin--inspire people of all places and genders to break out of the straitjacket of patriarchal control and become more embodied, protean, dramaturgical, and emergent in our lives. Get entangled!” * Charlotte Du Cann, author of After Ithaca: Journeys in Deep Time *“Sophie Strand’s words embody both the chthonic depth of well-myceliated soil and the crystals, sharp with insight, among its hyphae. In The Flowering Wand, Sophie remediates the ground of western culture by rerooting the divine masculine--in all its fertility, magic and imagination-- back into the earth. Through Sophie‘s richly seeded prose and deep scholarship she shows us how reclaiming this fertile, soporific energy--an energy that lives within us all--can help heal our connection with the Animate Everything and nourish the re-flowering of the world.” * Asia Suler, author of Mirrors in the Earth *“Readers will feel the words in this book tendril around their hearts and minds, forming adaptive connections and creating conversations with the ‘Animate Everything’ in the wilds of their everyday worlds. Myths that stay the same don’t survive, Strand tells us; she waves a wand toward the earth and summons up vital wisdom for our time.” * Gavin Van Horn, author of The Way of Coyote *Table of ContentsIntroduction The Sword or the Wand PART 1Back to the Roots1 Sky, Storm, and Spore Where Do Gods Come From? 2 The Hanged Man Is the Rooted One Thinking from the Feet3 Between Naming and the Unknown Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night4 The Minotaur Dances the Masculine Back into the Milky WayMyths Need to Move5 The Moon Belongs to Everyone Lunar Medicine for the Masculine 6 Becoming a HomeThe Empress Card Embraces the Masculine 7 Dionysus Girl-Faced God of the Swarm, the Hive, the Vine, and the Emergent Mind 8 Merlin Makes Kin to Make Kingdoms A Multiplicity of Minds and Myths9 Joseph, Secret Vegetalista of Genesis Plants Use Men to Dream 10 Actaeon Is the King of the Beasts From Curse to Crown11 A New Myth for Narcissus Seeing Ourselves in the Ecosystem 12 Everyone Is OrpheusSinging for Other Species 13 Dionysus as LiberThe Vine Is the Tool of the Oppressed 14 Rewilding the Beloved Dionysus Offers New Modes of Romance 15 Grow Back Your Horns The Devil Card Is Dionysus PART IIHealing the Wound 16 Let Your Wings DryGiving the Star Card to the Masculine 17 Tristan and TransformationEscaping the Trauma of the Hero’s Journey 18 Boy David, Wild David, King David The Land-Based Origin of Biblical Kingship 19 Coppice the Hero’s Journey Creating Narrative Ecosystems 20 Merlin and Vortigern Magical Boyhood Topples Patriarchy21 Parzifal and the Fisher King The Grail Overflows with Stories 22 Sleeping Beauty, Sleeping World The Prince Offers the Masculine a New Quest 23 Melt the Sacred Masculine and the Divine Feminine into Divine Animacy The Sacred Overflows the Human 24 Resurrect the Bridegroom The Song of Songs and Ecology as Courtship 25 OsirisThe Original Green Man 26 What’s the Matter?

    Out of stock

    Book Synopsis Offering a new understanding of Jesus as guru and master of left-handed Tantra, James Reho, an Episcopal priest and tantric initiate, reframes the Christian story and restores to modern Christianity the tantric wisdom practices that were edited out of church tradition and forgotten over the centuries. He explains how tantric Christianity views the human body as the primary “temple” of the Holy, with erotic energy as the signature of Divine Presence within. Rev. Reho reveals the similarities of the earliest Christian practices to the tantric yogas of India and Tibet and explores the role of Kundalini and the chakras. He details how to work with mantras, icons, and pranayama breathing exercises, as well as with gazing as a spiritual practice. Informed by the insights of ancient texts and early masters of Christian spirituality, the author provides step-by-step instructions on how to practice Christian tantric sex with a life-partner of the opposite or same sex.Trade Review“Episcopal priest Reho peels back the Platonic influence on Christianity to uncover a radical rearticulation of spiritual practice in this engrossing guide. . . . the work beautifully serves any Christ follower seeking concrete, simple suggestions for body-based spiritual practice.” * Publishers Weekly *“This is a book for our times. Deeply feminist in nature, it offers the hope of freeing Western men and women from the limitations of a sterile understanding of Christ and Christianity. This freedom is essential if we are going to heal the divisions in humanity and heal our planet from the ravages of dualistic exploitation. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in exploring their personal experience of Christ.” * Mary Ann Whalen, LCSW, psychotherapist *“James Reho is truly on to something here. Please read this book. You will understand the great Christ yogi in a new and powerful way. You will make real use of the peace and power Jesus brought to human life.” * Mark Whitwell, author of Yoga of Heart and The Promise *“James Reho calls us into the marriage of East and West, the conjoining of Heaven and Earth, the pregnancy of spirit and matter. Tantric Jesus is a courageous call into the frightening and freeing world of oneness.” * John Philip Newell, author of The Rebirthing of God *“I welcome Tantric Jesus for its potential deep implications for the future of Christianity in dialog with Eastern spirituality. . . . James Reho helps point us in the right direction, one in which our consciousness can be raised higher, richer, and fuller as a result of a conscious and knowledgeable dialogue between the Mystery of Christ and the living tradition of Tantra through the erotic spiritual process of holy longing.” * Russill Paul, author of Jesus in the Lotus: The Mystical Doorway Between Christianity *“As an Episcopal priest and a yogi, James Reho is a bridge between cultures and spiritual traditions. Tantric Jesus, his insightful and skillful first book, likewise bridges mind and spirit, theory and practice, erudition and accessibility, passion and rationality, the sacred masculine and the sacred feminine. The book is revolutionary without losing heart.” * Christian de la Huerta, teacher, speaker, and author of Coming Out Spiritually *“A brilliantly written and tremendously inspiring treatise on Tantra. A complete revelation!” * Diana Richardson, author of The Heart of Tantric Sex *“For anyone who is longing to be transformed by the divine energies present in all of creation and the cosmos, Tantric Jesus is required reading, a sound and reliable guide for all who are traveling along the perilous but grace-filled path to the Heart of the Divine.” * The Rev. Peter Savastano, Ph.D. *“With scholarship as thorough as its topic is controversial, Tantric Jesus infuses the traditions of Christianity with the embodied practices of Hindu Tantra. . . . Do the practices in this book, and your understanding of the historical Jesus and the path of Christianity will never be the same.” * Will Johnson, author of Breathing Through the Whole Body and Eyes Wide Open *“James Reho brings out hitherto unrealized parallels between the tantric mode of the East and Christian practice in the West. The heavenly and the earthly come together in this fascinating book. As a Christian, I am richer for having read it.” * The Rev.

The wit and grit that Jodie brings, partnered with the supreme wisdom of God's Word working itself out in prayer, will encourage anybody on the spectrum of time in marriage. Alisa Keeton, founder of Revelation Wellness and bestselling author of The Wellness RevelationJodie Berndt's books about how we can pray for our children give me peace every single day, and now the gift of receiving that same thing for our marriage is here!

She makes it all very doable, no matter what your faith background looks like, how odd or cheesy it feels, or whether your spouse is willing to pray with you. As Jodie so invitingly puts it, 'Do what works.' Rebekah Lyons, bestselling author of Rhythms of RenewalPacked full of humor, sensible advice, relatable marriage stories, and, most importantly, biblical truth, Praying the Scriptures for Your Marriage is an easy-to-read and encouraging marriage resource. Jodie Berndt has done a wonderful job writing a marriage book that weaves together the realities of what couples face and the significance of what's really important, equipping readers with confidence to take their relationship to God through purposeful prayer. The insights layered in every chapter are like treasures waiting to be discovered. Jennifer and Aaron Smith, authors of Marriage After GodPraying the Scriptures for Your Marriage is unlike any marriage book you've read. While offering plenty of rich insight and wise advice, Jodie Berndt also offers brilliant prayer guides to help you invite the power of God's transformational work and presence into your marriage. An outstanding read for any couple who wants to take their marriage to the next level. Gary Thomas, author of Sacred Marriage and CherishThe Praying the Scriptures series includes the most transformative books I've ever read, and this book is no exception. I can't think of a better tool for marriages than praying the Scriptures for our relationships. For the couple who is thriving, for the couple who is at the end of their rope and clinging to threadbare hope, for the couple who has endured impossibly painful life circumstances . . . no matter where you are in your marriage, Jodie Berndt reminds us of words God has given us to pray--his words! His loving truth is the best news for ourselves, our spouses, and our marriages! Thank you, Jodie, for another life-changing book. Nicole Zasowski, marriage and family therapist and author of What If It's Wonderful?Too many husbands and wives today are failing at their most important vocation--marriage. The research tells us that couples who pray together are not only much more likely to steer clear of divorce court but also to be happily married (most of the time). Jodie Berndt's breathtakingly honest, wise, and funny Praying the Scriptures for Your Marriage shows couples how to pray well for each other and how to find a spiritually grounded intimacy that sustains them amidst the challenges of contemporary life. Highly recommended to anyone wishing to forge a strong and stable marriage. Brad Wilcox, director of the National Marriage Project, University of VirginiaWhile we'd say we are in a happy and successful marriage, we were blown away at how Praying the Scriptures for Your Marriage gave us an opportunity to grow individually and as a couple. It prompted questions we needed to ask ourselves and each other so we can go even deeper with God and in our relationship together. Whether your marriage is thriving or stuck in a rut, you need to read this book! And even better, this book is more than a onetime read. Using these questions and prayers as an annual marriage 'refresher' is a great plan--especially as your marriage season changes. Alexa and Carlos Penavega, actors and singersWithout a doubt, marriage is hard at times--and there are countless issues and challenges that can derail this vital relationship. Jodie Berndt understands how tough marriage can be, but she also knows that nothing is too difficult for the Lord. When we are guided by the very words of Scripture in lifting our union with our spouse before God, there's no telling how He will transform our marriage. Jim Daly, president of Focus on the FamilyYoung married or seasoned couples, new believers, or mature saints--here is a dynamic new book for every marriage. We tend to forget that God's Word is called a sword in Ephesians 6:17. Every couple needs to become better at handling 'the sword' for their most important relationship this side of heaven. With gentle practicality, vast experience, and deep wisdom, Jodie Berndt takes her readers on a journey of discovery and discipline, emphasizing the power and vital importance of the Word in marriage and teaching couples how to engage that power for marriage during prayer every day.

    Ronin Publishing Hermaphrodites, Gynomorphs and Jesus: She-Male

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisAll of western religion springs from the veneration of a bi-gender entity, known to the ancient world as the Gynomorph. The first western god was both male and female. The worship of hermaphroditic gods like the Gynomorph surfaces in ancient pagan cults as well as early Christianity. In Hermaphrodites, Gynomorphs and Jesus readers meet female gods with penises and discover how they impacted the development of western culture. Veneration of the Gynomorph is the basis for modern western law courts. The founders of democracy worshiped similar female divinities who possessed penises. Ritual sodomy as a means of celebrating hermaphroditic gods directly promoted the birth of western democracy. In fact, ancient priestesses responsible for guiding the worship of hermaphroditic goddesses laid the very foundations for democracy, science and philosophy. Snake venoms used in cultic sex rituals were immensely popular in both Greece and Rome. In addition, abortion-inducing drugs promoted the first scientific investigations. Classical civilization relied heavily upon the use of cannabis, opiates, and hallucinogens, which were mixed with sexual stimulants. Hermaphrodites, Gynomorphs and Jesus reveals how the oldest western pharmaceuticals were sex drugs used in religious initiations in celebration of the Gynomorph.Table of ContentsIntroduction Ch. 1: She Creates with Her Penis Ch. 2: Sacred Sodomy Ch. 3: Religious Aphrodisiacs Ch. 4: Possession Via Anal Sex Ch. 5: Hermaphroditic Ecstasy Ch. 6: Baptists Who Wear Lingerie Ch. 7: Talking to the Dead Ch. 8: Gynomorphic Democracy Ch. 9: The She-Penis of Justice Ch. 10: The Male god and his Pornography Ch. 11: Snakes as Dildos Ch. 12: What's in an Anus?

  • Satanic Feminism Lucifer as the Liberator of

    Oxford University Press Inc Satanic Feminism Lucifer as the Liberator of

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisAccording to the Bible, Eve was the first to heed Satan''s advice to eat the forbidden fruit and thus responsible for all of humanity''s subsequent miseries. The notion of woman as the Devil''s accomplice is prominent throughout Christian history and has been used to legitimize the subordination of wives and daughters. In the nineteenth century, rebellious females performed counter-readings of this misogynist tradition. Lucifer was reconceptualized as a feminist liberator of womankind, and Eve became a heroine. In these reimaginings, Satan is an ally in the struggle against a tyrannical patriarchy supported by God the Father and his male priests. Per Faxneld shows how this Satanic feminism was expressed in a wide variety of nineteenth-century literary texts, autobiographies, pamphlets, newspaper articles, paintings, sculptures, and even artifacts of consumer culture like jewelry. He details how colorful figures like the suffragette Elizabeth Cady Stanton, gender-bending Theosophist H. P. Blavatsky, author Aino Kallas, actress Sarah Bernhardt, anti-clerical witch enthusiast Matilda Joslyn Gage, decadent marchioness Luisa Casati, and the Luciferian lesbian poetess Renée Vivien embraced these reimaginings. By exploring the connections between esotericism, literature, art and the political realm, Satanic Feminism sheds new light on neglected aspects of the intellectual history of feminism, Satanism, and revisionary mythmaking.Trade ReviewFaxneld's book is essential reading for anyone interested in biblical reception, the history of Christianity, Western esotericism, literature, the history of feminism, and history of art. It is also highly recommended for contemporary satanists, witches, and pagans—and those who want to understand them—as a clear exposition of the history of Satan that consequently sheds light on his relationship to these new religious movements. * Caroline Tully, Reading Religion *... the assemblage here is as provocative for scholarship as the original voices were to their cultures. Consider, for instance, Faxneld's observation that The Woman's Bible was "a project on which several female Theosophists were among the collaborators." This alone should motivate multiple future studies. Anyone interested in the history of feminist thought (and its villainization) should read this book. * Spencer Dew, Denison University / The Ohio State University, Religious Studies Review *an authoritative, wide-ranging analysis of a discourse long considered too outlandish to merit much scholarly attention. Bridging literary and religious studies, it reclaims legions of fascinating she-devils to argue persuasively for Satanic feminism as a daring and culturally significant rewriting of Christian myth. * Dawn Coleman, History of Religions *Satanic Feminism is strongly recommended to all those interested in understanding the crucial role of Satan in theWestern cultural imagination. ... The author does not restrict himself to a specific focus on Satanism, but interconnects several fields of study, including Western esoteric studies. ... Faxneld's volume goes far beyond prior works on the history of intellectual Satanism. * Michele Olzi, Aries *Table of ContentsI: Introduction II: Woman and the Devil: Some Recurring Motifs III: Romantic and Socialist Satanism IV: Theosophical Luciferianism and Feminist Celebrations of Eve V: Satan as the Emancipator of Woman in Gothic Literature VI: Witches as Rebels Against Patriarchy VII: Subversive Satanic Women in Decadent Literature and Art VIII: Lucifer and the Lesbians: Sapphic Satanism IX: Becoming the Demon Woman: Rebellious Role-play X: Mary MacLane's Autobiographic Satanic Feminism XI: Sylvia Townsend Warner's Liberating Devil XII: Conclusions Bibliography

    Book SynopsisA guilt-free guide that strips away the myths you''ve believed about motherhood and offers you a new way to think--about your kids, yourself, and being the mom you''ve always wanted to be.A recent Barna study stated that 80 percent of mothers are stressed out, 70 percent are tired, and 56 percent are overcommitted. This book is for them: every mom who feels overwhelmed, worried, stressed, overstimulated, tired, and strung out by all the demands of taking care of little--or not-so-little--humans.Bestselling author, life and business coach, and mom of five boys Alli Worthington believes too many moms have neglected to take care of arguably the one person who matters most: themselves. In Remaining You While Raising Them, Alli shares guilt-free, often hilarious, empowering, and research-informed advice to help you: Intentionally care for yourself--spiritually, emotionally, and physically--amidst the demands of motherhood Drop thTrade ReviewAs a young mom, I constantly feel crushed by advice. There is always more I could be doing, as social media is ever ready to remind me. For moms of this generation, shame looms large, so when I first opened this book, I was nervous. Thankfully, my fears were instantly relieved. This book is good news for mothers. It is a lighter way to parenting with impact. With her signature wisdom and humor, Alli offers herself as the most generous mentor. I so enjoyed reading this book, and you will too!

Crystal Paine, New York Times bestselling author, host of The Crystal Paine Show, and founder of MoneySavingMom.comI'm a stepmom of two, and the expectations--from not only others but also myself--were crippling. Before Alli wrote this book, she coached me on balancing work, family, and purpose, all while modeling being a great mom. She lived out the principles in this book and now is sharing them to bring freedom to women. I'm grateful for this resource that will help others in the way she's helped me.

Dr. Alison Cook, therapist and author of The Best of You and Boundaries for Your SoulMothers are stressed and anxious, constantly wondering if they're doing a good enough job.

Among the pages you will find a wonderful transformation. Meg Meeker, MD, author of the national bestseller Strong Fathers, Strong DaughtersMy one complaint about this book is that Alli didn't write it sooner. I had to go through the hard-fought journey of mothering four boys to gain some of these truths. You have the gift of Alli's wisdom and her excellent research to guide you in healthy mothering. Her help comes in a consumable, mom-friendly way. These chapters are relatable, to the point, and easy to grasp. Heather MacFadyen, host of the Don't Mom Alone podcast and author of Right Where You BelongThere's not a mom alive who doesn't need this book.

If you're looking for a new narrative surrounding motherhood, you'll find it here.

I can't wait to see the thousands of moms stepping into a place of thriving and freedom as they apply the wisdom within these pages. Hannah Brencher, author of Fighting Forward and Come Matter HereYes please. This book is exactly what I've been looking for as a new mom. Alli's words have inspired me to ditch old ways of thinking and embrace my style of motherhood while cheering on others who are doing the same. I'm tearing through this book, highlighting things, texting quotes to my friends, and writing Alli's reminders on the back of my hand. Alli, thank you for this.

    Inner Traditions Bear and Company The Royal Path of Shakti: The Erotic and Magical

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe first step-by-step guide to the techniques of Kaula Tantra, the practical yogini path to enlightenment. Written in the 8th century by the sage Matsyendranatha, the Kaulajnananirnaya Tantra records the secret erotic and magical practices of the Yogini Kaula tradition, a tradition focused on practical methods for attaining enlightenment. Although the text contains roughly 60 practices, it was written in a “twilight language” that obscures the secret principles that make the techniques work. It is the role of a master to awaken the initiate to the esoteric meaning of the practices within the text. Revealing the practices and secret principles of Kaula Tantra with permission from his Himalayan tantric yogini master Lalita Devi, Daniel Odier explains each erotic and magical technique of Kaula in depth. Providing a complete translation of the Kaulajnananirnaya Tantra from Sanskrit, he connects each practice to the text by Matsyendranatha and offers vivid stories of his initiation into the practices. He explores techniques from the complete mystical method that the yogini have been transmitting directly for millennia, such as how to open the nadis, the body’s energy channels. He details Kaula techniques for acquiring siddhis—magical powers such as the ability to hear far away things or appear in several places at once—as well as sacred protection and black magic practices. The author explains how the Kaula practices are related to the 8 Red Goddesses, who can each be found within the 8 chakras and each represent a different aspect of the Royal Path of Shakti. He shares a system of illuminating visualisations to integrate the body of the practitioner with vibration (spanda) and consciousness until there is no difference between the inner world and the cosmos. Presenting the first step-by-step guide to the techniques of Kaula Tantra, Odier details the practical yogini path to enlightenment and offers a direct transmission through the liberating power of the written word.Trade Review“The illuminating visualizations give readers a viable spiritual path to face and overcome disease, difficulties, and even death and to truly taste the amrita of the Kaulas. This wondrous book is a sacred invitation into divine embodiment of the Kaula yogini mysteries of the cosmos. A must-read and invaluable guide of never-before-revealed ancient yogini wisdom.” * Laura K.

    Book SynopsisWhat if it's not your fault that sex is bad in your marriage? Based on a groundbreaking in-depth survey of 22,000 Christian women, The Great Sex Rescue unlocks the secrets to what makes some marriages red hot while others fizzle out. Generations of women have grown up with messages about sex that make them feel dirty, used, or invisible, while men have been sold such a cheapened version of sex, they don't know what they're missing. The Great Sex Rescue hopes to turn all of that around, developing a truly biblical view of sex where mutuality, intimacy, and passion reign. The Great Sex Rescue pulls back the curtain on what is happening in Christian bedrooms and exposes the problematic teachings that wreck sex for so many couples--and the good teachings that leave others breathless. In the #metoo and #churchtoo era, not only is this book a long overdue corrective to church culture, it is poised to free thousands of couples from repressive and dissatisfying sex lives so that they can experience the kind of intimacy and wholeness God intended.
