About this listen

Magic, the occult, the mystical - is there anything behind those words? If there is, is it anything beyond horror-movie cliches? People the world over have always known and interacted with these hidden forces. But in our culture, there are very few ways to sort out truth from nonsense.

In this book, Richard Smoley, an expert on the occult, delves into the world of mind power, magic, suggestion, and the realms of the unseen. He speaks simply and clearly, in common-sense terms, about these mysterious forces, how they can work for you, and what you need to avoid. This trip through unseen worlds could be most exciting adventure of your life, and possibly the most important, as you learn about: meditation; the colors of magic; the life force; the astral light; thought power; prophecy; psychic powers; astrology; the Tarot; ghosts, angels, and spirits; life after death; evil; witchcraft and Satanism; Atlantis and lost civilizations; the Last Judgment; the Kingdom of God; healing; reincarnation; the Brotherhood; psychedelics; and spirituality.

Just a Guy Lecturing You on His View

I couldn't finish it. It felt like you were sitting down with this guy he was lecturing you about "how things are."

It feels like he's just talking into a microphone with no real script. It's full of colloquiallism and meandering thoughts.

At first I thought it was charming. I envisioned sitting by a fire and a wise old man was imparting wisdom...but it kinda turned into his personal views mixed with basic beginner stuff you'll find on Wikipedia.

If you're new to this, it's not really accurate. Actually, in spirituality and paranormal stuff, there's a huge amount of difference between how people actually experience this stuff.

Lucid Overview of Western Traditions

Mr. Smoley gives a no b.s. overview of pretty much everything in western esoterica. Well much worth your time.
