The lesser banishing ritual of the pentagram - michael benjamin

The Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram - a 21st Century Grimoire is the most comprehensive examination of this foundational occult ritual as originally taught in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawns Magickal system.

In this book, author Michael Benjamin presents a practical handbook, historical record, and scholarly analysis of why this ritual was rightly described by Aleister Crowley as, The Medicine of Metals and the Stone of the Wise.

Utilizing both Western and Eastern esoteric sources, this unprecedented study offers an in-depth, integral understanding of the mystical insights provided within, as well as the psychological development facilitated by, this paramount exercise.

Drawing from such varied Occidental systems as Rosicrucianism, Qabalah, Tarot, Thelema, Alchemy, Astrology, Theosophy, Freemasonry, and Wicca, along with such Asian schools as Mahayana Buddhism, Taoism, Kundalini Yoga, Vedanta, and Martial Arts, The Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram reveals the universality of this practice as a potent means of self-evolution and spiritual awakening.

This book is a pragmatic modern grimoire, providing todays occult student with a clear window into the bright wisdom fostered by the Magi and Sages of humanitys various places and ages.
