Abstract

Interviewed by God is an account of Beth Banning's journey of spiritual awakening-her conscious connection with God and the lessons she's learned along the way. From a very young age, Banning experienced phenomena that could only be called extraordinary: she's received messages from spirit animals, felt kundalini energy awaken in her, and experienced dimensional shifts in her awareness that have allowed her to witness what only a few have seen. She was visited by totem animals, took ritualistic baths, and visited shamans and healers; she experienced ecstatic states and received messages; her e

Abstract

Les moines du Moyen Âge, ainsi que beaucoup de clercs, ont vécu dans l'angoisse de la faute, commise ou à commettre sous l'emprise des démons, qui risquerait de leur faire perdre le bénéfice de leur ascèse. Il leur arrive de livrer au lecteur, souvent par petites touches et parfois d'abondance, l'histoire de leur vigilance et des tentations subies - par où ils se rapprochent un peu, quoique pas totalement, des modernes autobiographies. Le présent recueil réunit onze essais, écrits par des historiens français, allemands et américains, encadrés par une introduction d'André Vauchez et une conclusion de Jean-Claude Schmitt. Chacun de ces essais concerne une oeuvre particulière, parfois très connue (Raoul Glaber, Guilbert de Nogent, Pierre Abélard, objets de lectures novatrices), parfois beaucoup moins (de Valère du Bierzo à Richalm de Schöntal, le lecteur fera des découvertes). Il n'y a pas autant de démons partout, ni de penchant autobiographique, mais cette variété même paraît suggestive. Une étude iconographique sur l'exorcisme, due à Florence Chave-Mahir, complète l'ensemble en présentant et commentant des images saisissantes.

Abstract

This book examines the lives of the famous Russian painter, thinker, and mystic Nikolai Roerich and his wife, Elena Roerich, the “mother” of Agni Yoga esoteric teaching. Extensively researched, it focuses on the couple’s spiritual quest, resulting in their gradual transformation under the influence of theosophy, spiritualism and Elena’s psychic “fiery experience” into mystics and gurus who fashioned their new version of the “myth of the Masters,” the invisible guides of humanity. Special attention is given to N. Roerich’s travels in Central Asia and Far East, his cultural and public activities and particularly his Buddho-Communist utopia. The myth of the Masters revived will appeal to those interested in New Age esotericism, mysticism, and Russian thought in the first half of the 20th century.
