The Maqlu Ritual Book
Author: Joshua Free
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780578481333
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
A collector's edition of a long-lost translated cuneiform tablet collection revealing the most ancient and complete guide to Babylonian spiritual and magical protection spells, exorcisms rites, and banishing rituals--right from the heart of Mesopotamia as used by Mardukite priests, priestesses and magicians of Sumerian Anunnaki tradition. The Maqlu Ritual Tablets of Babylon... the most ancient and coveted complete magical manual concerning the Dark Arts ever known to man--newly translated and prepared by the "Mardukite Research Organization" for a special 10th Anniversary Collector's Edition. This tome celebrates a decade of intensive academic and esoteric exploration, drawn from the underground archives of "Mardukite Chamberlains," and now accessible to the modern public for contemporary practice in an incredible new way for the first time ever. Here is an authentic cuneiform tablet collection--perhaps the very first "spellbook" of its kind on the planet--the complete account of a Mesopotamian magical tradition that forms a "grimoire" of very real and very ancient Sumerian Anunnaki magic. "The Maqlu Ritual Book" reveals materials used by magicians and priests for thousands of years to reverse the effects of evil spells and curses, banish disease and nightmares, combat in wizards' duels, and even conjure protection and blessings of the gods to benefit the entire community! The Maqlu Ritual Tablets of Babylon... no mere "folk magic" or rural witches Book of Shadows, the Maqlu cuneiform tablet series was first in possession only of the highest orders of priest-scribes, temple-magicians, priestesses and kings of ancient Mesopotamia--the ancient "cradle of modern human civilization." Maqlu magic was so powerful that the government of the greatest ancient empires in history employed it to ensure prosperous lands, happiness among the population, and carrying the awesome abilities to dispel chaos, evil, and malignant forces in the world--things we long for, and are in great need of, even today. Perhaps this long forgotten occult secret is the key!

The Necronomicon
Author: Simon
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0380751925
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
In the past 31 years, there has been a lot of ink—actual and virtual—spilled on the subject of the Necronomicon. Some have derided it as a clumsy hoax; others have praised it as a powerful grimoire. As the decades have passed, more information has come to light both on the book's origins and discovery, and on the information contained within its pages. The Necronomicon has been found to contain formula for spiritual trans-formation, consistent with some of the most ancient mystical processes in the world, processes that were not public knowledge when the book was first published, processes that involve communion with the stars. In spite of all the controversy, the first edition sold out before it was published. And it has never been out of print since then. This year, the original designer of the 1977 edition and the original editor have joined forces to present a new, deluxe hardcover edition of the most feared, most reviled, and most desired occult book on the planet.

Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9789072371522
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 246
Book Description
Wiggerman's study of Mesopotamian monsters bridges the gap between text and image. Wooden and clay figures of monstrous spirits such as Hairy-One (lahmu), Bison-Bull (kusarikku), and Furious-Snake (mushussu) stand guard at the entrances to buildings to protect the inhavitants from demonic intruders. Deriving his information from the ritual texts that describe the production and installation of these figures, the author identifies the monsters of the texts with objects from the archaeological record and presents a detailed discussion of the identities and histories of a variety of Mesopotamian monsters.
