Magical Ritual Methods - William G (University of North Carolina Chapel Hill) Gray - Bog

Throughout the ages, the workings of magical ritual have been shrouded in secrecy. This was not altogether intentional, since how can mere description of the purely physical aspects of ritualism possibly convey its deep significance? Knowing this, practitioners of magical rites have maintained silence or given such vague descriptions of their activities that little practical use can be made of them. "Magical Ritual Methods" is a now a classical guidebook, intended for Western Students on the path of spiritual consciousness. In this work William G. Gray pulls all the "how's" and "why's" of ceremonial magic together in one volume and provides the student with practical means for its proper operation and study. People are drawn toward ritual practice because it fulfills a need on a deep spiritual level that nothing else will fill. William Gray shows us how to arrange and direct our own studies, and gives us the basics to make magical ritual work for us, to extend our human consciousness toward Truth and Light.
