An illustrated text discussing the original existence and present survival of an Adept Tradition in the Moslem world. The principle arcana of secret schools set up by mystics for the purpose of perpetuating the inner meaning of the Moslem faith is presented and their systems of meditation, concentration, and Yogic practices-similar to those of the Hindu mystics-are explored. The manner in which these practices led to the development of internal faculties and the ability to control natural phenomena is revealed. How the secret Moslem sects derived important philosophical and theurgic elements from Gnosticism, Judaism, and Christianity is also discussed.

In Time and the Technosphere:The Law of Time in Human Affairs, the author advocates a calendar that accomodates the 13th moon-which has been globally occluded, deliberately speaking, by such vectors as the Holy Roman Empire and others of like minded oppression. Yet in spite of his good intentions at liberating us from the matrix of linearity, there is a kind of messianic condescension that sets the tone of this book throughout.

Noble Drew Ali, in his proper person, Sheik Sharif Abdul Ali was born in the state of North Carolina on January 8th, 1886. He was born of the (Moorish Indigenous) Cherokee Tribe and named at birth, Timothy Drew with Moorish and Cherokee descent. Noble Drew Ali received his free national name from the Sultan Abdul Aziz Ibu Saud. He traveled extensively and studied the Universal sciences of the “Most High” and the mystic disciplines required to reach self mastery (Moorish Science). Through diligence and determination, Noble Drew Ali (more commonly known), revealed to the Asiatics of the Americas that the European colonists systematically discombobulated, usurped and destroyed the records and history of the Indigenous Moors of the Americas (Amexem, Al Mauritania, Al Moroc). He set out to reconstruct the buried history and restore the divine creed and national parentage identity to the unconscious Asiatics of the Americas. He reconnected the broken circle of Nationality, Birthright, Divine Creed and their link to a Natal Land Mass; to the people incorrectly labeled Negro, black, colored, Indian and Ethiopian. He consistently urged the study of “Self” and the study of all religion from a scientific and psycho-spiritual perspective.–Zothyrius Ali El

Journey to the Lord of Power is the first English translation of Ibn ‘Arabi’s twelfth-century text dealing with spiritual ascent. ‘Arabi, whose metaphysical teachings have had a profound influence on both the Muslim and Christian worlds, is known as one of the greatest writers of mystical love poetry of all time.

Written in answer to the questions of a friend, this illuminating guide describes the evolutionary path of our higher spiritual aspirations -the quest for the ultimate reality, the journey toward God. It is chiefly concerned with spiritual retreat, an advanced and potentially dangerous Sufi practice that aims at the attainment of the Presence of God through absolute abandonment of the world. Realizing the imagination’s deceptive power, ‘Arabi warns that this form of retreat should not be undertaken except at the order of a sheikh or by one who has mastered the self. Each stage of the journey is accompanied by a temptation which can be overcome only by an unshakable desire for God.

‘Arabi explains each step of the ascent leading toward human perfection. In this perilous voyage of self-discovery, the reader will encounter the Realms of the mineral, vegetable, and animal worlds, eventually reaching the Gardens and the Throne of Mercy. The traveler of the Sufi mystic path is called upon to cleanse his or her heart in order to safely reach the final destination - the Lord of Power.

In this work, here presented in a complete English edition for the first time, the problem of knowing God is confronted in an original and stimulating way. Taking up the Prophet’s teaching that ‘Ninety-nine Beautiful Names’ are truly predicated of God, the author explores the meaning and resonance of each of these divine names, and reveals the functions they perform both in the cosmos and in the soul of the spiritual adept. Although some of the book is rigorously analytical, the author never fails to attract the reader with his profound mystical and ethical insights, which, conveyed in his sincere and straightforward idiom, have made of this book one of the perennial classics of Muslim thought, popular among Muslims to this day.

Sadr al-Din Muhammad Shirazi (1572-1640), more commonly called Mulla Sadra, was one of the grand scholars of later-period Islamic philosophy and has grown to become one of the best-known Muslim philosophers. Iksir al-’arifin, or Elixir of the Gnostics, is unique among Sadra’s writings in that it reworks and amplifies an earlier Persian work, the Jawidan-nama (Book of the Everlasting) by Afdal al-Din Kashani, or Baba Afdal.

The underlying theme of Sadra’s amplification is emblematic of Muslim philosophy: the importance of self-knowledge in an individual’s journey of “Origin and Return,” the soul’s origins with God and its eventual return to Him. Everything, Sadra says, is on such a path, gradually disengaging from the material world and returning to a transcendent essence–all leading to a final fruition in which everything in the universe returns to God and finds permanent happiness. Philosophy, Sadra argues, is the most direct means to self-knowledge–and thus the best tool for navigating this journey.

Shihäb al-Din al-Suhrawardi was born around 1154, probably in northwestern Iran. Spurred by a dream in which Aristotle appeared to him, he rejected the Avicennan Peripatetic philosophy of his youth and undertook the task of reviving the philosophical tradition of the “Ancients.”

Suhruwardi’s philosophy grants an epistemological role to immediate and atemporal intuition. It is explicitly anti-Peripatetic and is identified with the pre-Aristotelian sages, particularly Plato. The subject of his hikmat al-Ishraq–now available for the first time in English–is the “science of lights,” a science that Suhrawardi first learned through mystical exercises reinforced later by logical proofs and confirmed by what he saw as the parallel experiences of the Ancients. It was completed on 15 September 1186; and at sunset that evening, in the western sky, the sun, the moon, and the five visible planets came together in a magnificent conjunction in the constellation of Libra. The stars soon turned against Suhrawardi, however, who was reluctantly put to death by the son of Saladin, the sultan of Egypt, in 1191.

“LIFE AND TEACHING OF THE MASTERS OF THE FAR EAST” will give a person a reason to look into the greater realms of reality and if they will but “look,” the answers will be surprising and refreshing. Scientific evidence and verification of these things is not possible at the moment because it has not completely unfolded in their field of awareness. However, science has made tremendous progress in revealing the structure of the Universe, which to the Spiritual aware person indicates that our “material” world as we are able to perceive it, is not as “material” as we think it is. In this view, we can understand why the Masters of the Himalayas travel effortlessly through the “invisible.”
