The early Christian texts discussed in this book are often treated as "gnostic" ones. The studies by Ismo Dunderberg collected here, however, approach them as witnesses to the views of educated second-century Christians engaged in dialogue with philosophical traditions. Following the idea that ancient philosophical schools first and foremost provided their adherents with a way of life, the author explores issues related to morality and lifestyle in non-canonical gospels and among groups that were gradually denounced as heretical in the church. Prominent themes he deals with in this book include the soul's progress from material concerns to a life dominated by spirit, the control of emotions (such as desire, anger and grief), the avoidance of luxury, the ideal "perfect human" as a tool in moral instruction, classifications of humankind into distinct groups based upon their moral advancement, and Christian debates about the value of martyrdom. In addition Dunderberg offers a critical review of some recent trends and attitudes towards New Testament scholarship, especially those in which the non-canonical texts discussed in this book are either ignored or deemed as irrelevant, irrational, and sometimes even dangerous.

Idet jeg til mine brødre i frimureriet, tilbyder resultatet af fjorten års forskning, føler jeg det påkrævet klart at tilkendegive den linie jeg har valgt i mine undersøgelser. På mine forskellige rejser har jeg lagt mærke til, at brødrene altid er glade for at modtage antydninger om den oprindelige betydning af vore ritualer. I løbet af min frimurer karriere har det været mit privilegium ”at bringe broderlige hilsener” til mange forskellige loger i mange forskellige lande, og jeg har altid fundet brødrene ivrige efter yderligere tankevækkende begreber. Selve denne bog er resultat af en lille tale jeg holdt i Cripplegate loge nr. 1613 sidste november, som svar på skåltalen for gæsten. De korte ti minutter jeg da anvendte, rejste så megen interesse om emnet, at jeg blev presset til at komme igen og fortælle mere, og en velkendt broder forbavsede de andre ved at bede mig om at skrive en bog om emnet; i så fald ville han selv gennem sit firma sørge for at den blev udgivet. Således opmuntret har jeg, ikke uden visse betænkeligheder, skrevet dette værk i det håb at andre vil få lyst til at følge op på mine undersøgelser. Ved at gøre dette vil de uden tvivl blive uenige med nogen af mine

Bogen belyser en række sider af denældre europæiske okkulte tradition, der blandt andet er et produkt afrenæssancen, oplysningstiden og kolonialisering, og viser, at det okkulte ognyreligiøsitet, som både har stået i modsætning til og påvirket kristendommen,hverken er så vestlig og så ny endda.Den gamlenyreligiøsitet. Vestens glemte kulturarv viser, at den såkaldte nyreligiøsebølge langt fra er noget, der hører vore dage til. Tværtimod belyserantologien, hvordan det fremmede, det okkulte, det mystiske, det vulgære ogpopulære altid har været en del af Danmark og Vesterlandets religiøsetraditioner.Den europæiske okkulte tradition er en gammelstørrelse, der i vid udstrækning har været med til at skabe det, der i dagforstås ved gedigen kristendom. Samtidig har den europæiske okkultisme spilleten rolle netop som den kristne traditions modsætning. En af konsekvenserne afkolonialiseringen af Afrika og Asien blev indoptagelsen og dermed omskabelsenaf religiøse traditioner fra fx den arabiske verden og det indiskesubkontinent. De mange vestlige fortolkninger af hinduismen og buddhismen er enakademisk kolonialisering, der har betydet nyskabelser af den teologiske ogfilosofiske tradition i dét, man normalt definerer som kristeligt, dansk ogvestlige. ”Det danske” og ”det vestlige” er knapt så dansk og vestligt endda.Den gamle nyreligiøsitet. Vestens glemtekulturarv rummer bidrag af seksten forfattere fra fagdiscipliner somlitteraturvidenskab, arkæologi, historie, religionsvidenskab, pædagogiskfilosofi og teologi.Antologien er velegnet til undervisning påseminariets linjefag kristendomskundskab/religion samt på universitetetsstudier i teologi og religionsvidenskab. Men enhver, der interesserer sig forkultur og religion, vil have glæde af at læse den.Bogen er redigeret af seminarielektorerne PiaRose Böwadt og Mette Buchardt.

"Elverfolket og dyrene" er en bog som fortæller om, hvor elverfolket og dyrene kommer fra i universet og om deres ankomst til Atlantis. Atlantis varede fra år 250.000 F. Kr. til år 10.000 F. Kr.

I 1500 år levede alle i harmoni med hinanden, både indbyggerne, englene, enhjørningerne, dyrene og naturvæsenerne. De guddommelige energier gik op i en højere enhed. Men en dag kom adskillelsen mellem mørke og lys, denne periode varede i 8.500 år. Det kom også til at påvirke dyrene.

Elverfolket drog fra Atlantis, da det sank i havet til Grækenland og Ægypten. Efter en del år, drog de videre til Irland. Du vil blive ført gennem Irlands historie. Til stammen Tuatha De Danann. For at opleve elverfolket o g menneskehedens hjertekontakt. Fremtidens spil mellem dyrene og elverfolket.
