Lords of Light: The Path of Initiation in the Western Mysteries - Paperback

by W. E. Butler (Author)

With humility, humor, and conviction, Butler conveys an extensive knowledge of the occult mysteries, including ritual and ceremonial magic, the awakening of kundalini energy, and the path of the qabalistic tree of life. The overriding theme of his lectures concerns regeneration of the personality and the relinquishing of the false ego through control of one's mental and emotional reactions.
