£60.00
Second hand / Antiquarian

" Triad examines the parallel development of psychoanalysis and quantum physics in the early part of the century. Next to physics and psychoanalysis the book also explores the Jewish cultural connection. This, the third element of the triad, takes the reader from provincial ghetto to Budapest café society, from Kabbalah to enlightenment, from the mysteries of the universe to the mysteries of the universe. Numerous and unexpected family ties between the practitioners of the various arts enlivens the author's exploration of the counterintuitive theories, and monumental discoveries which have changed our lives. The historical novel format allows the author to probe and expound the major themes of the book: the role of the unconscious in the creative process, the evolution of radical ideas, the importance of cultural and family history, the role of professional rivalry, jealousy, friendship and hero worship. A fascinating and unusual book with a rich, rich cast - Sandor Ferenczi, George de Hevesy, Sigmund Freud, Niels Bohr, Wolf Pappenheim, Ernest Rutherford, Carl Jung, Wolfgang Pauli, Ernst Mach, Michael Heilprin, Kurt Godel, John von Neumann, Fritz Paneth, Paul Bernays, Rudolf Ortvay, Wolf Pascheles, Toni Freund, Leopold Breuer, Gizella Ferenczi, Joseph Paneth, Elma P los, Baruch Fraenkel, Lajos Levy, Samuel Hammerschlag, Joseph Breuer, Lou Andreas-Salome and Rabbi Moses Schreiber, the Chatam Sopher - to name but a few."

The Thirty-Two Keys (Book + Deck) by David Chaim Smith
£130.00
Book and Deck set
The Thirty-Two Keys, the third volume from the Lightning Flash of Alef series, is a group of symbolic images that provide an overview of the non-emanationist interpretation of the Kabbalah based on sources that span eight centuries. The images support a set of contemplative exercises configured for a 288-day period and serve as an introduction to the greater path of mysticism in all its forms. Beyond its introductory role, The Thirty-Two Keys is a powerful tool for contemplation at any point on the path and is absolutely unique in the literature of the Western Esoteric Tradition. This second edition has profoundly refined the original material and extensively reworked both the text and the images to make the content clearer and more accessible than ever.
Metatron’s Ladder (paperback) by David Chaim Smith
£19.99
Metatron’s Ladder presents a rare style of sacred work based on a 13-stage structure derived from a short medieval Kabbalistic text called The Thirteen Powers. The array pivots on the guiding power of wisdom personified by Metatron. However, this presence is not considered as an angelic being in its usual sense. Both the wisdom guidance and the mind that is guided by it are understood as mutual aspects of a single undifferentiated wisdom field where mundane concerns are released and the essential meaning of reality can awaken like a lightning flash. When the structure and symbolism of this text are understood through esoteric analysis a unique and powerful approach to mysticism shines through.
