THE PHILOSOPHERS' SECRET FIRE - A History of the Imagination
By Patrick Harpur
Price: $39.90
Is there any place for the ancient myths of our ancestors in modern times? Could their shadowy presence in our common imagination be more influential than we realize?
Across the globe many societies still believe in an Otherworld of spirits, gods and daimons, which the west has banished to the unconscious mind and now only visits in dreams. Yet this visionary tradition continues to subvert the rational universe, erupting out of the shadows in times of intense religious and philosophical transition.
In his dazzling history of the imagination, Patrick Harper links together fields as far apart as Greek philosophy and depth psychology, Renaissance magic and tribal ritual, Romantic poetry and the ecstasy of the shaman, to trace how myths have been used to make sense of the world. He uncovers that tradition which alchemists imagined as a Golden Chain of Initiates, who passed their mysterious 'secret fire' down through the ages.
As this inspiring book shows, the secret of this perenial wisdom is of an imaginative insight: a simple way of seeing that re-enchants our existence and restores us to our own true selves.

IN THE OM ZONE
By Steven Halpern
Price: $24.90
According to the ancient spiritual traditions of India, "Om" is the primordial vibration, the "soundless sound" that is the basic harmonic building block of our 3-dimensional world.
As best-sellers like The Secret and The Law of Attraction point out, "Like attracts like." Simply listening to the sounds on this recording will strengthen your connection with Source. More than that, however, IN THE OM ZONE invites and supports you in using your voice to send healing frequencies to your body, mind and spirit. Many people love to chant with others in a darkened yoga room, but feel uncomfortable or bored chanting alone at home. IN THE OM ZONE is "spiritual karaoke™" that provides a solution to "The Om Alone Blues." Soothing, sustained voices chant "Om" in harmonic fifths, creating a continuously flowing soundscape perfect for yoga and meditation. Other highlights feature the dynamic world grooves of the Hot Chakra Band, the universal "Om Nama Shivaya" mantra, and a transcendently chilled version of the Beatles' "tomorrow Never Knows."
