Description
The Five Fundamental Arts of the Western Esoteric Tradition
A quote from the Foreword by Dr Gareth Knight: High magic is presented here for what it is — the tuning of consciousness to other worlds or dimensions by the skilled application of magical patterns and key symbols in a process of personal transformation which can lead to profound and far-reaching practical results.
Most former textbooks on magic that aspired beyond the trivial have been based more on intellectual juggling with theoretical correspondences and alleged authorities than the fruits of actual experience. This is now changing, and with Bob Stewart I welcome the fact that ‘the future of magical arts is now in the hands of actual practicing magicians; such persons will create fresh imaginative traditions and methods of transforming consciousness and energy.’ R.J. Stewart’s Living Magical Arts is one step on the way to providing that lively future.
