The bold revelation about religion based on the present concept as a human rather than divine invention. Book Three of the Trilogy of Truth. Humans are created with an inherent desire to connect with the supernatural because the human spirit is a product of the supernatural—the Breadth of Life from God. The fall in the Garden of Eden caused a disconnection between Man and God. Pagan World: Deception And Falsehood In Religion draws from history, religious history, and theology to reveal the origin of the present concept of religion, falsehood in religion, and paganism. It explores the Abrahamic Covenant while assessing the three main Abrahamic religions—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—to ascertain the validity of each as a representative of the covenant God made with Abraham. Highlighting the role of eisegesis in the invention of theologies used to found different religions, Ziri employs the right Biblical hermeneutics in exegeting Scriptural texts to reveal shortcomings associated with such theologies while also applying the rightful interpretation of Biblical texts including prophecies to reveal God’s plan for the restoration of mankind. Written with Ziri’s trademark literary dexterity and investigative skill, this insightful and thought-provoking exposé is Pagan World: Deception And Falsehood In Religion.

The gift of grace, coming to us as beauty, cannot be ordered or owned, only acknowledged and served. When events take on a mythical dimension and reverberate in the soul, then we feel grace. The three images of divinity guiding this book express the often unconscious pagan grace present in our daily lives. With this book, Ginette Paris continues the work of Pagan Meditations in reviving individual, cultural, and social life by reawakening their archetypal roots.

Paganism means living in harmony with nature and respecting all that nature has to offer. It is a sustainable way of life that has existed in the British Isles for thousands of years and that has survived secretly among scattered households throughout the UK. Although it is not a religious path (true pagans do not worship deities), paganism will appeal to anyone who cares about the environment, who is interested in maintaining an organic lifestyle or who believes in respecting their roots whilst catering for the future. Paganism may be thousands of years old, but it is particularly suited to meeting our twenty-first century concerns. In The Modern Pagan, Brian Day explains how to live in a way that honours the land and its inhabitants. There is advice on celebrating seasonal festivals, on cultivating a true pagan garden, on creating delicious food and drink from hedgerow fare, on herbal medicine, on the importance of pagan parenting and family values, on living in harmony without prejudice and discrimination and much more. The core principles of Modern Paganism will make sense to anyone who is tired of the hustle and bustle of our polluted lifestyles, and who is looking for a way to live that is in balance with our fellow human beings and the natural world.

In the work of documentary filmmakers, explains Nick Polizzi, one cardinal rule is never forget that your job is to document, not participate. But when Nick set out to explore the native outback of the Americas - meeting healers, shamans, and medicine women and tapping their well of ancient wisdom, nearly lost to the rest of the world - he had to bend that rule. As he found his way into highly sacred and often very private shamanic ceremonies, not participating ceased to be an option. Nick invites readers along on his journey of discovery to make indigenous knowledge of healing accessible to us all.

"His most original contribution to an unravelling of a pagan Arthurian past lies in his appropriation of the fascinating evidence of standing stones and pagan cultic sites. The magical attributes of stones are exemplified in prehistoric standing stones, the real counterparts of the perrons of the French romances. This is dark and difficult territory, but certain events in the Arthurian cycle, which take place on and around Salisbury Plain, have correspondences with known prehistoric events. Building on these elusive clues, and tracing a range of sites around the river Severn and south Wales, John Darrah has added a significant new dimension to the search for the sources of England's great epic, the legends of Arthur and his court."--Jacket.
