That's Benebell's Key of Solomun & Collected Studies on Spirit Conjure. She released it at some point last year and caught me by surprise. I'm going to go through it when I finally finish her Doctrinal Basis of Transcendental Magic: A Fundamentals Course in Witchcraft on the left.

I'm loving it so far. I didn't think I would be pulled into this kind of bodywork but there's always a deeper meaning behind our interests! I only just learned about this practice and body dearmoring the other week.

Absolutely loving this book so far. From the beginning the book mentions developing deep perception &presence, bringing harmony to the body etc as key skills one needs to learn— exactly what I'm interested in right now. The diagram of the practitioner gently holding

Episode 9 of the Telepathy Tapes hit me right in the heart. I've listen to it twice already. This series is going to have such a profound impact on the world as more and more people come to it. To say I'm hyped for whatever is coming in the final episode of the season would be an understatement.

Tantra Illuminated

Tantra Illuminated - The Philosophy, History, and Practice of a Timeless Tradition

We're pointing to the same thing through the filter of their own indigenous/shamanic culture and the spirits local to the land they lived in. I've found the view laid as laid out in Dr Christopher Wallace's book on shaiva tantra to be one of the more concise views pointing to the fundamental nature

All that exists, throughout all time and beyond, is one infinite divine Consciousness, free and blissful, which projects within the field of its awareness a vast multiplicity of apparently differentiated subjects and objects: each object an actualization of a timeless potentiality inherent in the Light of Consciousness, and each subject, you and I, the same plus a contracted locus of self-awareness.
This creation, a divine play, is the result of the natural impulse within Consciousness to express the totality of its self-knowledge in action, an impulse arising from love. The unbounded Light of Consciousness contracts into finite embodied loci of awareness out of its own free will. When those finite subjects then identify with the limited and circumscribed cognitions and circumstances that make up this phase of their existence, instead of identifying with the transindividual overarching pulsation of pure Awareness that is their true nature, they experience what they call "suffering." To rectify this, some feel an inner urge to take up the path of spiritual wisdom and yogic practice, the purpose of which is to undermine their misidentification and directly reveal within the immediacy of awareness the fact that the divine powers of Consciousness, Bliss, Willing, Knowing, and Acting comprise the totality of individual experience as well-thereby triggering a recognition that one's real identity is that of the highest Divinity, the Whole in every part. This experiential insight is repeated and reinforced through various means until it becomes the nonconceptual ground of every moment of experience, and one's contracted sense of self and separation from the Whole is finally annihilated in the incandescent radiance of the complete expansion into perfect wholeness. Then one's perception fully encompasses the reality of a universe dancing ecstatically in the animation of its completely perfect divinity.
