This first in the Stalking series chronicles a covert mystic's efforts to have a television technician reinterpret his experiences in the world's hot spots, and recognize a design in his travels that was at once an outrage to reason, a blasphemy to religion, and undeniable... While writing a behind-the-scenes war coverage novel, John meets Bonnie, whose own writings deal with the design of destiny, miracles, and him, as she transparently dangles mystical intrigues from her story...

In the Spring of 1988, by arrangement I met a beautiful woman whose interests lay in the design of destiny, miracles, and me—an average looking man, whose naiveté had been savaged while working in television news, in places like San Salvador and Beirut. Given our divergent views on the nature of our world, this meeting was a predictably bizarre exchange of explanatory experiences, during which Bonnie dangled mystical intrigues from her novel-in-progress to secure my help adapting it for th...

I met a beautiful woman whose interests lay in the design of destiny, miracles, and apparently me when she dangled mystical intrigues from her novel-in-progress to secure my help formatting it for the screen. As an average-looking man, whose naiveté had been savaged while working for television news in places like San Salvador and Beirut, I reasoned that a romance between us was no less absurd an idea than the premises she already seemed to embrace, and I decided to pursue her affections w...

This work details my two year apprenticeship with a mystic, by any other name, who claimed that humankind has risen and fallen many times, and that Universal forces have intervened when it was necessary. Now is such a time, and the emissaries of change are here awaiting only an introduction. She explained that Spirit intercedes by sending individuals into physical life in the traditional way, but whose experiences are designed to become the basis of future, collective endeavors. ...

Throughout time, seers and shamans of particular backgrounds have practiced a teaching scheme called stalking. In this instance, the term does not refer to the aberrant persecution of another’s welfare: the literal opposite is the case as the stalker’s goal is to free their apprentice from apparently reasonable, common behaviors that will cause unforeseen harm down the road. The process of raising their errant beliefs from the unrealized to eye level is endlessly affronting, beca...

Volume 2 of the Stalking series: A mystic explains specifically how mankind has reached an evolutionary cul-de-sac, to an apprentice whose beliefs, projected and unchecked onto mankind’s behaviors, are apocalyptic. The absurd circumstance into which I was unsuspectingly recruited, recounted in “Stalking the Average Man,” evolved into an intricate teaching scheme that mystics of particular lineages call stalking. In this instance, the term does not refer to the aberrant persecutio...

This short book is not focused on the trappings of wizardry, fun though these may be, nor is it a guide to gaining power over anyone but oneself. It is not about 'pointy hats', though Gandalf's looks very good on him.Instead, it outlines the foundational thoughts of the True West (as I see it), and in the 'Emerald Tablet' section lists the 'Wizard's Desiderata' - the kind of life which is truly powerful, truly magical, truly mythical, and truly possible. It always has been possible ...
