pg 36* = "Anathema had learned to read from The Book. It didn't have any apples and balls in it. It did have a rather good eighteenth-century woodcut of Agnes Nutter being burned at the stake and looking rather cheerful about it."

pg 52 = "It was published by Bilton and Scaggs in September 1655"

What's an 18th century woodcut doing in a mid 17th century book?

Has anyone asked @neil-gaiman about this?

Come rest by the hearth’s fire and warm yourself, now that your travels are at an end. 

The night is long, and we are in no hurry. This is a time for reflection, to think back on where you have been – and where it has led you to.

Whether you have crossed oceans or deserts, wound your way through labyrinthine cities or long-forgotten ghost towns, followed untrodden paths or the pilgrim’s well-worn way – you are no longer the same, and you have wisdom to share.

The Devil’s Supper, by Shani Oates

The story of the Devil has been told by many over the years — by those who think they know him and by those who wish they did. The Devil’s Supper begins by inviting the reader to listen to his tale and drink from his cup.

Shani Oates gives a history of primal deities, how in recent times they have been viewed as evil, but that it was not always the case. As an example, she talks about Set and how his actions against Osiris was out of necessity with no intention of evil. Many gods had both negative and positive forces within them and were not seen as intrinsically evil or good. There was no duality as in Christianity. To create and destroy, all things were deemed necessary.

José Gabriel Alegría Sabogal was Born in Berlin, and currently lives and works in Lima, Perú. He studied painting at PUCP (Pontifical Catholic University of Perú) and the Universitat de Barcelona (UB). Currently, José is completing his Masters in the History of Art at PUCP. 
His visual work makes use of the line-technique found in renaissance copper plate engraving, but now applied to drawing. Both the themes and their treatment José explores are essentially anachronistic, and follow the initiative of developing a symbolic language that aspires to a timeless nature. 
His works have been published by Aeon Sophia Press (Netherlands), Anathema Publishing Ltd. (Canada) and Mount Abraxas (Romania). 
José has also developed the visual concept for several musical albums by bands from America and Europe, amongst them Whoredom Rife (Norway) and Inferno (Czech Republic).

In "Forgotten Gods", several of the illustrations will be accompanied by literary texts by authors that Yoann Lossel appreciates.

Among them, you can find, or discover, a spiritual text by Mr Gabriel Mc Caughry speaking with subtelty of the so mysterious human spirit. Gabriel McCaughry is the founder and editor of Anathema Publishing Ltd (Est. 2011).

He has fully overseen the creation of several well-respected esoteric titles in-cluding Craig Williams’ Entering the Desert, Shani Oates’ The Hanged God, and P.T. Mistlberger’s The Dancing Sorcerer (among many others).

A pilgrim in the Mystery Tradition, Gabriel is deeply fascinated with all subjects re-lating to Alchemy, Hermeticism, and the Nameless Arte.

His first book, (h)Auroræ, is somewhat of an invitation for the attentive reader to explore, ponder, and puzzle over the fundamental processes of Alchemical Self-Transmutation – as a tool for developing mental individuation and spiritual apothe-osis.

Stylistically, Gabriel usually prefers to work by poetic inference rather than forth-right assertion. There is an interplay of polysemic thoughts and counter-intuitive terminologies explored in Gabriel’s writing, which shines brightest in the questions it raises, rather than the answers the mind tries to grasp onto. His work is thus a ve-hicle meant to inspire, to help embrace the many alchemical nodes of transfor-mation, and to calcine the whole experience into the reader’s very own crucible.

Gabriel's writing has also been featured in periodicals including Ixaxaar’s Clavicula Nox, and Anathema’s own PILLARS Occult Periodicals.

Christopher, at this stage, was reading in the back of the lorry, where his companions were a Teherani, an Isfahani, two muleteers, and the driver’s assistant. Teherani: What’s this book? Christopher: A book of history. Teherani: What history? Christopher: The history of Rum and the countries near it, such as Persia, Egypt, Turkey, and Frankistan. Assistant (opening the book): Ya Ali! What characters! Teherani: Can you read it? Christopher: Of course. It’s my language. Teherani: Read it to us. Christopher: But you cannot understand the language. Isfahani: No matter. Read a little. Muleteers: Go on! Go on! Christopher: “It may occasion some surprise that the Roman pontiff should erect, in the heart of France, the tribunal from whence he hurled his anathemas against the king; but our surprise will vanish so soon as we form a just estimate of a king of France in the eleventh century.” Teherani: What’s that about? Christopher: About the Pope. Teherani: The Foof? Who’s that? Christopher: The Caliph of Rum. Muleteer: It’s a history of the Caliph of Rum. Teherani: Shut up! Is it a new book? Assistant: Is it full of clean thoughts? Christopher: It is without religion. The man who wrote it did not believe in the prophets. Teherani: Did he believe in God? Christopher: Perhaps. But he despised the prophets. He said that Jesus was an ordinary man (general agreement) and that Mohammad was an ordinary man (general depression) and that Zoroaster was an ordinary man. Muleteer (who speaks Turkish and doesn’t understand well): Was he called Zoroaster? Christopher: No, Gibbon. Chorus: Ghiboon! Ghiboon! Teherani: Is there any religion which says there is no god? Christopher: I think not. But in Africa they worship idols. Teherani: Are there many idolaters in England?

SEEDS OF ARES PRE-PUBLICATION ANNOUNCEMENT

It is with great pride that I am able to confirm my inclusion in the next edition of PILLARS, to be published by ANATHEMA PUBLISHING LTD. The planned publication of this work is for the Autumn of 2020. Although with the current difficulties that we all face, I would not be surprised if there was to be a delay. The pandemic has already caused a delay for many other publishers.

[portionsofeternity]

Entering the Desert is one of the most visually pleasing and well formatted books I've ever held. The cloth standard edition is a pearl of simplicity infused with elegant detail. On aesthetics alone, it is my favorite looking book.

I've made a first read of the text and I definitely recommend anyone who is interested to make their purchase, as it is ideal for those who are making early forays into esotericism or are looking to deepen their current practice. Craig Williams LAc does an excellent job of distilling from traditional teachings the essential disciplines of mind and body that act as the stable foundation of any inner practice; a foundation I think is quite lacking in most individuals, myself included, and a foundation that requires consistent work and commitment.

This text is a precious key, and I'm incredibly grateful that Craig has written it, and that Anathema Publishing Ltd. has done such an excellent job in bringing it to publication, with this title as well as others. These are the people holding the torches in the darkness, and for them I have nothing but gratitude. Wonderful work.

Ker HC | Printing names of contesting candidates in different colours on ballot paper – anathema to scheme of election process

Kerala High Court: The Divison Bench of V. Chitambaresh and R. Narayana Pisharadi, JJ. allowed a writ appeal against an order allowing printing of names of candidates contesting co-operative society elections, on ballot paper in different colour shades.

The instant appeal was filed against the order of learned Single Judge whereby respondent’s request to print the names of the contesting candidates on the ballot paper in different colour shades, was allowed holding that it would help illiterate voters to make a correct choice.  In doing so, the learned judge declared Rule 35A(6)(n)(viii) of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rules, 1969 as ‘undemocratic and unconstitutional’.

The question of law for consideration in the present appeal was: whether names of contesting candidates can be printed in different colours on ballot paper indicating the political party to which they belong.

The Court noted that except the essentials contemplated under Rule 35A(6)(n)(viii), no further ornamentation of ballot paper, by incorporation of a symbol or colour for the contesting candidate, was contemplated under the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act, 1969  or Rules; and was thus impermissible in law. It was opined that the word ‘uniform’ incorporated in Rule 35A(6)(n)(viii) mandates that all ballot papers shall be similar with regard to the projection of names. Uniformity is required not only with respect to ballot papers supplied to the members desirous of voting, but also with respect to names of contesting candidates.

It was opined that the word ‘uniform’ means ‘characterised by lack of variation’. It was inserted in Rule 35A(6) (n)(viii) with the sole object of treating all candidates alike in the ballot paper. Giving different colour shades to contesting candidates is an anathema to the scheme of election process, particularly because there is no authority either under the Act or Rules to allot a particular colour to a candidate depending on the political party to whom he owes allegiance.

In view of the above, and observing that the possibility of an illiterate voter indicating his choice for a wrong candidate due to absence of colour shade in projecting his name in the ballot paper was quite illusory, the impugned Judgment was set aside.[State of Kerala v. Akathethara Service Co-operative Bank Ltd., W.A. No. 1963 of 2018, Order dated 20-02-2019]
