Aprašymas

Why do so many gifted magicians have broken lives? For over a century the Western Mystery Tradition has trained the spirit while quietly neglecting everything the spirit stands on: the body, the heart and the everyday mind. The result is a familiar tragedy, the initiate of high attainment whose health, relationships or peace of mind lie in ruins. The tradition's own founder knew better. Dion Fortune, a trained therapist before she was a magician, warned that you cannot sublimate a pathology: first the clearing, then the raising. Somewhere in the generations that followed, her instruction was dropped. This book hands it back. Drawing on thirty years in the Western Mystery Tradition and as many in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Andy Cooper shows that NLP is the missing half of magical training: the practical art of clearing the heart, training the mind, and rebuilding the beliefs on which all effective work stands. His teacher Tad James put it in four words: NLP is denominalised magic. Inside you will find the four bodies of the initiate and the three minds that animate them; why the unconscious is the one road to the Higher Self; the gentle clearing of the heart that Fortune demanded and modern method finally delivers; the trained mind, the prepared body, and the energy work that crowns them; and a practice at every step, drawn from a living school. Chapter by chapter, The Whole Magician restores the initiate's training to what it was always meant to be: body, heart, mind and spirit, each made ready in its turn, until the person who stands between the two pillars becomes the third, and whole. A companion volume to the five-book Voices of the Nile series. Andy Cooper is the founder and Director of Studies of the Helios School of Esoteric Science, Glastonbury.
