An exploration of our extraordinary shift away from materialism toward renewal of the numinous, mysterious, and uncertain• Examines topics that evoke widespread misunderstanding, including the real history of secret societies, the wisdom of the Satanic, Gnosticism, Hermeticism, out-of-body experience, and the contemporary war on witches• Looks at the influence of the founding lights of modern occultism, including mystic Neville Goddard, occult scholar Manly P. Hall, and surrealist filmmaker David Lynch, and debunks famous pseudo-skeptics such as the Amazing Randi• Explores magickal practices, including Anarchic Magick, mind metaphysics, the Law of Attraction, and Ouija boards, and upends hallowed spiritual concepts like forgivenessAll of us today dwell in uncertain places--realities in which thoughts make things happen, ESP is provable by the scientific methods once used to debunk it, UFOs are mainstream, and magick no longer requires rite and ritual but is as near as your own mind. Today’s leading voice of esotericism and the occult, Mitch Horowitz explores topics that evoke widespread misunderstanding, including the real history of secret societies, the wisdom of the Satanic, the relevance of Gnosticism, and the slender but authentic connection between today’s spiritual culture and antiquity, including in areas of Hermeticism, deity worship, out-of-body experience, and magick. He demonstrates the occult roots of wide-ranging facets of modern culture, including politics, abstract art, mind-body healing, self-help, and breakthrough scientific fields such as quantum physics and neuroplasticity. He looks at the influence of the founding lights of modern occultism, including mystic Neville Goddard, occult scholar Manly P. Hall, and surrealist filmmaker David Lynch, and provides a magnificent take-down of famous debunkers and pseudo-skeptics such as the Amazing Randi. He explores magickal practices, including Anarchic Magick, mind metaphysics, the Law of Attraction, and the history of Ouija boards and questions time-honored spiritual values like forgiveness. Mitch also examines the contemporary war on witches around the world and what it is like to be blacklisted. Offering a thought-provoking investigation of the spiritual, the occult, the magickal, and the extra-physical, Mitch lays the groundwork for readers to continue their own journeys into these esoteric streams of consciousness.

“One of the only people I know who pulls off punk rock and self-help simultaneously.”—Conner HabibPower is what naturally results when everything needless and self-defeating is stripped out of your life. Are you prepared to dedicate 30 days to throwing off whatever conceals the greater self you have always suspected you are? If you’re unsure do not even begin this book. In The Miracle Month, Mitch Horowitz, “a cross between Aleister Crowley and Alan Watts” (Duncan Trussell), provides a 30-day, self-enforced academy that disrupts, upends, and overthrows every social and self-imposed barrier to your innate power. “This book,” Mitch writes, “is for people who would prefer nearly any alternative than to slide back into the anxiety, self-limitations, and half-in, half-out existence that they have known until now. Does that sound extreme? It is not. It is an open door to change.”Mitch helps you “Understand Power” (Day 9), “Give Up One Thing That Causes You Pain” (Day 13), realize “You Are Not Someone Else’s Decision” (Day 27), and confront the question: “Do You Enjoy Suffering?” (Day 26). In 30 realizable, graspable steps you will reverse years of peer-enforced conformity and self-negation to become who you—rightly—sense you are. “Horowitz comes across as the real deal: he is an authentic ‘adept mind’ and he knows his stuff.”—Boing Boing“Convincing…takes us far from naïve doctrines.”—Paris Match“Mitch is solid gold.”—David Lynch

One of Neville⠙s Most Transformative Works With a Major Biography and TimelineWritten in 1944, Feeling Is the Secret resounds with the full power of Neville Goddard⠙s mystical vision. With total persuasiveness, Neville⠔writing at the peak of his abilities⠔demonstrates how the world without reflects your world within. What⠙s more, the mystical visionary explains exactly how to use his system of mental creativity through the methods of prayer, sleep, and assumption. Feeling Is the Secret is one of the most revolutionary works of practical spirituality ever written. It promises a turning point in your life.In this beautifully designed ⠜deluxe edition⠝ you benefit not only from Neville⠙s radical statement, but also from a comprehensive and enthralling analysis and biography of Neville, ⠜Chariot of Fire,⠝ by spiritual thinker Mitch Horowitz, who is considered the most powerful interpreter of Neville⠙s ideas today. Mitch⠙s comprehensive essay is a spiritual and historical journey in itself. This edition is rounded out with Mitch⠙s timeline of Neville⠙s life. Here is a resource book that you will turn to again and again.NEVILLE GODDARD (1905-1972) was one of the most remarkable mystical thinkers of the past century. In more than ten books and thousands of lectures, Neville expanded on one core principle: the human imagination is God. He was a compelling presence at metaphysical churches, spiritual centers and auditoriums. Neville was not widely known during his lifetime, but today his books and lectures have attained new popularity. His principles have influenced several major spiritual writers, including Carlos Castaneda and Joseph Murphy.

Napoleon Hill called the thirteenth and final step of Think and Grow Rich, “The Sixth Sense,” adding: “This principle is the apex of the philosophy.” Time has validated the success master’s insight.In The Sixth Sense,Mitch Horowitz, one of today’s most literate voices of self-help, explores the practical uses of this culminating step in Hill’s philosophy, including how: Your brain is a “receiving station” sensitive to influences all around you. ESP, telepathy, and precognition are facts demonstrated by replicable and recent lab data. “Mental telepathy is a reality,” Hill wrote, with emphasis in the original. He was right. Due to your receptivity to extra-physical impressions, you must carefully cultivate environment, relationships, and colleagues. Your psyche functions like any physical organ—it is subject to fatigue, exhaustion, and overuse, just as it performs better under conditions of health, vitality, and adequate rest. You must beware of factors that cloud your mind’s functions, such as intoxication, boredom, poor physical habits, and negative emotions. Enthusiasm is a vital property in accessing imagination, intuition, and insight. By using all the lessons in Think and Grow Rich, it is possible to cultivate a sixth sense through which hunches and flashes of insight reach you. Pay attention to enthusiasms and forebodings. This may be the sixth sense communicating. You can trust intuitions and insights when they follow dedicated study and effort. These are not fickle or errant notions but possibly the subconscious and sixth sense breaking through. Precognition and retrocausality—the subject of recent academic studies and meta-analyses—demonstrate that future actions can improve current performance. An imaginary council, as described in Hill’s final step, can augment—but not replace—the Master Mind principle. We experience daily moments that are “prime time” for intuition, autosuggestion, and ESP-related activity. Learn how to cultivate them.

Analyzing sex-offense laws and false claims, this book shows that laws based on vengeance rather than justice or evidence create new forms of harm while failing to address the real and pervasive problem of sexual violence.In this timely and extensively researched book, sociologist Emily Horowitz shows how current sex-offense policies in the United States create new forms of harm and prevent those who have caused harm from the process of constructive repentance or contributing to society after punishment. Horowitz also illustrates the failure of criminal justice responses to social problems. Sharing detailed narratives from the experiences of those on registries and their loved ones, Horowitz reveals the social impact and cycle of violence that results from dehumanizing and banishing those who have already been held accountable.From Rage to Reason offers a new perspective on how and why false claims about sex offenses became so pervasive and how these myths fostered ineffective policies that have little to do with the reality of most sexual abuse. It argues that to truly prevent sexual abuse, we must unearth the sources of these misunderstandings, debunk these claims in a systematic way, and have frank and genuine discussions about the limits of legal responses to complex social problems.

Od autora Mitche Alboma, který inspiroval miliony lidí po celém světě knihami jako Tuesdays with Morris (úterý s Morrisem) a The Five People You Meet in Heaven (Pět lidí, které potkáš v nebi), přichází jeho nejpůsobivější román The Time Keeper (Strážce času ) - poutavá legenda o prvním muži na Zemi, který počítal čas. V nejnovějším románu Mitche Alboma je vynálezce prvních světových hodin potrestán za to, že se pokoušel měřit nejúžasnější Boží dar - čas. Je vyhoštěn na staletí do jeskyně a přinucen naslouchat hlasem všech, kteří ho léta hledali. Nakonec, když byla jeho duše skoro zlomená, Otec čas mu udělil svobodu, spolu s magickými přesýpacími hodinami a posláním: příležitostí splatit svůj dluh tím, že naučí dvou pozemských lidí skutečnému významu času. Zatímco počítání času začalo tak nevinně, dnes už dominuje v našich životech a nevíme si bez něj představit jediný den. Vynálezce se vrací právě do našeho světa a začíná svou cestu za vlastní záchranou se dvěma rozdílnými partnery: jedním je dospívající dívka, která si chce vzít život, přičemž druhým je vlivný starý obchodník, který chce žít navěky. Aby zachránil sám sebe, musí zachránit obou. Tato evokující próza v sobě nese neobyčejný příběh, který inspiruje čtenáře, aby znovu zvážil své vlastní představy o čase, jak ho tráví a jaký cenný ve skutečnosti je.

Po dvaceti letech se znovu setkal se svým bývalým profesorem Morriem Schwartzem, který mu pomohl začít vnímat svět z jiného úhlu, než byl Mitch dosud zvyk¬lý. Z jejich pravidelných úterních setkání se stává jejich poslední společný semestr o životě a smrti. Profesor totiž onemocněl amytrofickou laterální sklerózou. Kniha poukazuje na to, že smysl lidské existence se člověku často vyjevuje teprve tváří v tvář konečnosti lidského bytí a stala se předlohou stejnojmenného filmu z roku 1999 s Jackem Lemmonem a Hankem Azzariou v hlavních rolích.

Seminal photo series, together with new works, demonstrate Epstein s unflinching documentation of America s landscapes ravaged by climate changeThe culmination of a 20-year odyssey by one of America’s leading photographers, American Nature represents both a political portrait of the nation during this pivotal time and an existential warning about a potentially cataclysmic future. Even though the threat of climate change is very real and affects us daily, the causes and consequences are often hard to articulate, much less represent. Mitch Epstein’s monumental achievement in his overarching work of the past two decades has been to communicate the intangible networks of production and power that threaten our environment and to listen to and record the visions of people in protest, as well as the gentle thrum of the enduring forest.American Nature features key selections from Epstein s three most recent projects: American Power (2003–9), Property Rights (2017–20) and Old Growth (2020–24). In American Power, he shows the consequences of the corporate extraction and refinement of natural resources. In Property Rights, he bears witness to local responses and resistances to such spoliations. And in Old Growth, he reveals the too rarely seen vistas of ancient trees and pristine nature, untrammeled by human exploitation. In addition to these three major photographic projects, there are two new multimedia works: the monumental installation Forest Waves, devoted to the virgin forest of Massachusetts, and Clear Cut, a compilation of still images by early 20th-century photographer Darius Kinsey on the deforestation in the American Northwest.Mitch Epstein (born 1952) was born in Holyoke, Massachusetts, and studied under Garry Winogrand at Cooper Union. His photobook Family Business won the 2004 Kraszna-Krausz Photography Book Award. Epstein was previously a visiting artist at Bard College’s Photography Program.

Uncertainties are everywhere. Whether it⠙s climate change, financial volatility, pandemic outbreaks or new technologies, we don⠙t know what the future will hold. For many contemporary challenges, navigating uncertainty ⠓ where we cannot predict what may happen ⠓ is essential and, as the book explores, this is much more than just managing risk. But how is this done, and what can we learn from different contexts about responding to and living with uncertainty? Indeed, what might it mean to live from uncertainty?Drawing on experiences from across the world, the chapters in this book explore finance and banking, technology regulation, critical infrastructures, pandemics, natural disasters and climate change. Each chapter contrasts an approach centred on risk and control, where we assume we know about and can manage the future, with one that is more flexible, responding to uncertainty. The book argues that we need to adjust our modernist, controlling view and to develop new approaches, including some reclaimed and adapted from previous times or different cultures. This requires a radical rethinking of policies, institutions and practices for successfully navigating uncertainties in an increasingly turbulent world.
