Opening the third eye aids intuition, creativity, and psychic abilities. You can do this easily by "toning," "doing vibrational work" or chanting Thoh (rhymes with "toe") at a middle or high "C" note. This triggers a vibration in the pineal which cause the third eye and its chakra to open. The exact techniques are included in the book. If you open the crown chakra (associated with the pituitary gland) you can improve some of your natural psychic abilities, including clairaudience, clairvoyance, and clairsentience. Vibrational work for this chakra uses the sound May. Breathing techniques and the exact way of toning to open the chakra are fully explained. You'll also learn how to see the aura and interpret its colors, as well as how to open all of the chakras. The book also explains techniques to send the mysterious kundalini energy through the chakras. But this book has more! It includes the secrets of channeling, such as working with angels and spirit guides. It goes on to share methods of astral projection and then reveals the secrets of reincarnation. Ancient Teachings for Beginnersis easy to understand and the techniques are a snap to use. If you are looking for an introduction to the secrets of the teachings of the ancient mystery schools, this book is for you!

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn Mystics, William Harmless, S.J., introduces readers to the scholarly study of mysticism. He explores both mystics' extraordinary lives and their no-less-extraordinary writings using a unique case-study method centered on detailed examinations of six major Christian mystics: Thomas Merton, Bernard of Clairvaux, Hildegard of Bingen, Bonaventure, Meister Eckhart, and Evagrius Ponticus. Rather than presenting mysticism as a subtle web of psychological or theological abstractions, Harless's case-study approach brings things down to earth, restoring mystics to their historical context.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFollowers of the New Thought movement of the early 20th century sought to find God through explorations of the metaphysical. Here, one of the most influential thinkers of this early "New Age" philosophy takes a fresh look at the life and teachings of Jesus Christ through a New Thought lens. In this series of "lessons" originally published as a series of monthly missives in 1907 and 1908, we discover the previously hidden esoteric meanings behind much of the story of Jesus, from the foretelling of his birth to the strange mysteries of his healing of the sick to the occult ceremony of the Last Supper. This is an eye-opening reinterpretation of a familiar story. American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books under numerous pseudonyms, including "Yogi Ramacharaka" and "Theron Q. Dumont." ALSO FROM COSIMO: Atkinson's Memory: How to Develop, Train and Use It; Advanced Course in Yogi Philosophy and Oriental Occultism; The Art and Science of Personal Magnetism: The Secret of Mental Fascination; The Science of Psychic Healing; Thought Vibration or the Law of Attraction in the Thought World; and others
