| Egyptian Book Of The Dead | |
![]() |
By E.A. Wallis Budge. The Egyptian Book of the Dead is unquestionably one of the most influential books in all history. Embodying a ritual to be performed for the dead, with detailed instructions for the behavior of the disembodied spirit in the Land of the Gods, it served as the most important repository of religious authority for some three thousand years. Reproduced in full are a clear copy of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, an interlinear transliteration of their sounds (as reconstructed), a word-for-word translation, and seperately a complete smooth translation. All this is preceded by an introduction of more than 150 pages. Paperback, 369 pgs |

| Egyptian Magic | |
![]() |
For millennia, Egypt, the dark land, has been considered the home of magic. The feats of her priests and magicians were renowned throughout the ancient world, from the simplest legerdemain (according to present interpretation) to the heights of necromancy and sorcery. Even their most severe critics, the ancient Hebrews, admitted the power of Egyptian magic. In the famous sorcerers` duel between Moses and the Egyptian priests before Pharaoh, he Egyptians were almost as skilled as Moses. This well-known study of ancient Egyptian Magic by E. Wallis Budge, long curator of Egyptian antiquities at the British Museum, sums up everything that is known about the wonder-working of ancient Egypt. After a general discussion of the role of magic in Egyptian religion proper (to control the gods) Dr. Budge covers the powerful amulets that warded off evil spirits; the scarabs of immortality; the use of wax images and spirit placements; magical pictures and formulas; magic via the secret name; magic of sounds; rituals; curses; destruction of hostile magic; determination of fortunate dates; and many of the other practices used by the ancient Nile dwellers. Dozens of magic formulas are given in full, both in the original Egyptian sounds, as far as they can be recreated, and in English; dozens of excerpts are also given from the magical papyroi, tomb inscriptions, and other sources. Many wonderful tales are told in these Egyptian stories; mind control, enforcing will upon animals, suspended animation, calling up the dead, finding ancient books of incredible magical power, and other miraculous events that we may or may not believe. |

| Temples of Light | |
![]() |
The Temples of Light guides the reader, as the initiate, on a spiritual journey through thirteen of Egypt`s sacred temples, providing a journey into the sanctuary of the open heart. Each sacred site is a portal to the ancient wisdom that can assist the modern-day pilgrim with everyday life issues and struggles (such as love, purpose, money and health) and the deeper questions of enlightenment and our divine origin. Danielle Rama Hoffman opens up sacred rites of passage that historically have been kept secret to forge a relationship with the temples of Egypt as allies and spirit guides. For example, the temple of Sakkara is associated with abundance; the temple of Abydos with remembering. The initiations in this book awaken intuition and the sahu, the fully realized self-allowing connections to the power, magic, and wisdom of such sacred symbols as the Flower of Life, the Djed Pillar (backbone of Osiris), and the ka body, or energy double. Hoffman`s guided meditations, rituals, and exercises also raise the reader`s vibration level, as we move from the Piscean to the Aquarian age. Embodying the wisdom of the open heart of these temples imparts a shift in consciousness from fear to bliss, from powerlessness to empowerment, opening the body, mind, and spirit to the infinite possibilities within. The book also includes a 50-minute CD of two guided journeys to the Egyptian Temples of Light. This is a 218 page softcover book including a CD of selections, narrated by Danielle Rama Hoffman. |
