The Practice of Deep Vision by David Chaim Smith
£18.99
The Psycho-Aetheric Alchemy series presents innovative new works utilizing esoteric symbol systems established in the Lightning Flash of Alef books, published between 2017 and 2023. The Practice of Deep Vision is a text on meditation within the context of esoteric cartography. The images are living portals that can carry the mind into non-conceptual registers of meaning by re-shaping the imaginal facility (the mind’s eye). Consciousness learns to bypass personal imagination and fantasy so that the images can be worked with on the inner level. Ultimately, the main concern is not the image, but vision itself. The power of vision can realize the potentiality at the heart of all things, and cartographic images provide a means to transmit the wisdom that can allow this ultimate aspect of meaning to be explored.

£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.

Metacartograph: Psycho-Aetheric Alchemy Volume 3 by David Chaim Smith
£18.99
The Psycho-Aetheric Alchemy series presents innovative new works utilizing esoteric symbol systems established in the Lightning Flash of Alef books, published between 2017 and 2023. Volume three is titled Metacartograph. A metacartograph is the highest category of esoteric cartography, which is a type of sacred image making unaffiliated with either organized religion or secular culture. The work is completely in its own category, and constitutes a radical departure from the role of art in contemporary society. The cartographer gives their entire life over to the process to become an open channel for the sublime mystery at the heart of all things. The process is a form of prayer, both in its manufacture as well as its viewing. This volume delves into both aspects along with the practice of mystical contemplation that makes both possible.
