The morning of the magicians : secret societies, conspiracies, and vanished civilizations by Louis Pauwels
I consider this one of the most profound titles that I've read in the last fifty years. I wish I'd found it sooner. I am a bit overwhelmed by the depth of the content and I intend to begin re-reading it immediately. The questions posed and the ideas expressed are right where many of our better esoteric philosophers are today -- 60 years after its initial publication. Finally some of the current thinking as well as the science is catching up to them! I'd recommend this for both Futurists and show more Historians....to say nothing of individuals in the arts and sciences. show less
One of the crazier books I've read - a veritable compendium of conspiracy in the first half of the 20th century. It's all here: Nazi's, the Holy Grail, UFO's, hollow earth, vril, etc., etc. I'm sure that Spielberg, von Daniken and Wilson definitely read this. In my younger days I'd have said "Smoke this, it'll really get you out there!", but I'm too old for that now. The biggest gripe I have is the translation - this book would pretty obviously have read better in French. But oh well, read show more it anyway and fall down the rabbit hole for yourself. show less
Para quem aprecia essa área obscura de pesquisa, chamada por alguns de "realismo fantástico", este livro é uma leitura saborosa. Para os que nunca leram outros livros do autor pode ser que fique a impressão de que ao final da leitura nada realmente foi lido. Parece uma colcha de retalhos de "fake news". Mas seria bom não ser tão racionalista e crédulo no que diz respeito à Academia (em geral), como se ela fosse a última revelação da "Ciência". Sugiro que leiam a História Secreta show more da Raça Humana, de Richard L. Thompson para que tenham uma amostra do que a pesquisa oficializada faz com a apresentação da verdade. Os livros de Bergier não têm pretensões de desnudar os mentirosos travestidos de pesquisadores, apenas nos descortinam uma greta nessa véu de arrogância em que se converteu a Ciência moderna. Leiam também, em parceria com Louis Powels, O Despertar dos Mágicos. Este é 5 estrelas. show less
This hilarious mish-mash was one of the first books to link National Socialism with The Occult. ("The Occult" explains everything and nothing.) Lots of interesting bits and pieces which don't add up. Inspired the song of the same title by The Flaming Lips on Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots.
