HUNBATZ MEN is a Mayan Elder, Day Keeper - an authority on the history, rituals, art, ancient healing techniques, chronology and calendar systems of Mayan civilization. The Daykeeper, in the tradition of the Maya, is the recipient of knowledge that has been passed down from generation to generation through centuries of time. It is an oral tradition that implies a lifetime of learning. From the time of his birth, Hunbatz Men was chosen and taught by his uncle Don Beto, the Daykeeper who preceded him. He has authored many books, including The Secrets of Mayan Science/Religion and Mayan Vision Quest:Mystical Initiation in Mesoamerica. Hunbatz Men is the founder of Maya Mysteries School and Indigenous Mayan Community for Studies and Cultural Dissemination in Mérida, Mexico.
"Hunbatz Men unlocks the secret mysteries of Mayan thought in a way never attempted before. As in a safe in which jewels are kept, the hermeticism of Mayan teachings is revealed to the believer through his powerful teachings. The fact that Mayan philosophy could have influenced Greek thought processes and language is a daring suggestion. His teachings contain revelations that are most needed in today's anxious world and are a great contribution to the quest for the ultimate truth." —Robert Boissiere, author of Meditations with the Hopi "Hunbatz Men presents convincing evidence for a profound sacred science underlying Mayan art and architecture. A valuable contribution to the ongoing study of ancient wisdom." —John Anthony West, author of Serpent and the SkyRecommended reading:The Secrets of Mayan Science/Religion andMayan Vision Quest:Mystical Initiation in Mesoamerica TONY PARSONS is one of those rare individuals who bring to their work a deep maturity and wide understanding in matters spiritual. The clarity and natural manner in which Tony writes and speaks about living in the unlimited Awareness of the present is refreshingly authentic. In As It Is, we are taken on a journey--a journey to nowhere and without a goal to attain. In this voyage, we are simply shown how the deep-rooted misunderstanding of our real nature has caused us to live in apparent pain
and fear. Through the radical and direct perception of “what is, as it is,” Tony invites us to live life from a wholly different perspective, one that is centered in the infinite awareness of our true self. Tony Parsons has been sharing this “open secret” to living a fully awakened life with people for over thirty years. His talks and workshops are highly regarded in England, Western Europe and, more recently, in North America. “The past and the future are simply part of the drama that keeps us locked into the illusion of being separate entities. Once the gate has opened into another possibility, then the real adventure begins.” —Tony Parsons Recommended reading: As It Is: The Open Secret to Living an Awakened Life COLIN WILSON burst upon the literary scene with his bestseller The Outsider when he was 25. He is an enormously prolific writer with some 80 major works to his credit which deal with a wide variety of subjects: existential philosophy, religion, occult and supernatural phenomena, music, sex, archaeology, astronomy, and cosmology. His most recent book is The Atlantis Blueprint with Rand Flem-Ath. COLIN WILSON AT 70 by GEOFF WARDFOR the first-time visitor, knocking at the front door of Colin Wilson's home
draws no response - one finds out later that this is because it is blocked off by bookshelves. Indeed, his house is half-home, half-library, with thousands of books on shelves lining the walls of every passageway and every room and filling three sheds in his back garden, not to mention the many thousands of records and videotapes he has collected over the years - a veritable information universe all his own. Therefore, on my initial visit, it was the kitchen door that was opened by Wilson's wife Joy, to whom he has been married for more than 40 years. Wilson himself presents an imposing if craggy appearance. Tall - well over six feet in his carpet slippers and baggy trousers - and with a thatch of unruly hair; spectacles compound a studious look often broken by a boyish grin.

“You are part of a larger plan, and if you pay attention, you will realize that the guidance you experience is leading you in a particular direction. Each of us has a destined calling in life, a truth we must tell, one that becomes clearer as our lives proceed. Remember to spend as much time as necessary tracing your personal history. Look for clues and hidden meanings in all that has happened to you. Use this information, along with your strong desire to help make the world a better place. “Remind yourself that no truth is too small to be important. In fact, the small truths, held with conviction and shared with everyone we meet, can be more effective than great projects. When you take the time to help one individual, and to communicate honestly and authentically, the effect cannot be measured. That person may go on to touch others and influence the world in a way that cannot be foreseen. “Real joy is secured when we pull all the pieces together into one conscious life journey that touches others and makes this world a better, more spiritual place. Remember that at the end of your life you want to look back and know you lived your time here with the greatest sense of awareness and purpose. Make joy a priority, and you will find levels of experience and satisfaction once thought unimaginable.” —Salle Merrill Redfield Recommended reading: Creating a Life of Joy: A Meditative Guide and The Joy of Meditating: A Beginner's Guide to the Art of Meditation ROSS HEAVEN is an author, healer, shamanic practitioner and one of the world's first fully initiated white priests of Vodou, the shamanic spiritual tradition of Haiti.

The Journey To You: "A very well-written book, drawing on many authorities. Both theory and practice are superbly presented and it is full of warmth and wisdom. For the complete newcomer or for the experienced shaman, this is probably the most important book on shamanism to be published in years". —David V.

She received her Ph.D. in psychology at the Eotvos Lorand Science University of Budapest and was subsequently named “Candidate” (Associate Member) of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. Dr. Sagi has published six books and over sixty articles and research papers, many in German and English. Her book on Aesthetics and Personality is a frequent reference work in Hungarian research organizations. Her principal work, Creativity in Music, is a 7-volume work on the experimental investigation of the musical creativity of different segments of the population, initially her thesis for
candidacy in the Academy of Sciences and presently published in a two-volume form by Akademiai Kiado, Budapest. Since the late 1980s her interests extended to problems of health and healing, using the insights of psychosomatic and information medicine, a field in which she is a frequent lecturer in Hungary, Switzerland, as well as Germany. She has developed the medical dowsing method pioneered by Viennese engineer Erich Koerbler into an encompassing method for diagnosing and treating human health problems (“Holistic Information-Medicine”), both in the immediate presence of the patient and from any finite distance. Her method enables her to examine the effect of psychological factors, such as experienced traumas, on problems of health through the ability to move back in the patient’s medical history throughout his or her lifetime up to and including the period of gestation and birth. Dr. Sagi’s method also allows her to recognize environmental influences on human subjects as well as testing the compatibility of physical conditions in given environments with human health, similarly to the method of Feng Shui, but in an extended form, including specified locations both near-by and distant. Her ability of “seeing into” human subjects who require her assistance, and into the pertinent conditions in the environment, made her a sought-after therapist and lecturer in Hungary, Austria, Germany, and Switzerland, with numerous publications in this field to her credit. Dr. Sagi’s professional experience includes co-directing the Hungarian sociological survey of families for the International Sociological Association, co-directing the European Perspectives research on European identity for the United Nations University, acting as Hungarian coordinator of EUROCIRCON the European Culture Impact Research Consortium, and since its founding in 1993 serving as program director of the Club of Budapest Hungary. She is a member of the General Evolution Research Group and Managing Editor of World Futures, The Journal of General Evolution. She is associate of the Sociological Research Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences.
