Why I Haven't Updated in a Year

R.S.I. - repetitive strain injury

Not just from computer use, but from a variety of intensive activities that included scanning books. So, I haven't updated mostly because I can't create new exclusive PDFs - and also because creating even a post of files I've downloaded requires a lot of painful clicking. I've got a solution now that solves my RSI problems, so this site will be updated soon with some random files I've found.

In the meantime, here's a bunch of links to some websites I've been visiting a lot lately:

Beyond Death, Beyond the Darkness of the Age













Lee Jae-eui - Kwangju Diary

"The book [Kwangju Diary] became the bible of the Korean democracy movement."

"According to the report, the sequence of events was triggered by student demonstrations on the morning of May 18 in defiance of the new edict. Some 200 Chonnam University students began demonstrating in the morning and by 2:00 P.M. they had been joined by more than 800 additional demonstrators. City police were unable to control the crowd. At about 4:00 P.M., the Martial Law Command dispatched a Special Forces detachment consisting of paratroopers trained for assault missions. The report did not mention it, but the paratroopers killed a large number of people."

Very informative; potentially revelatory.

Note: this book was scanned by me.

Odds & Sods

*update* Check out this section of the Dead Sea Scrolls, 11Q13: The Coming Of Melchizedek

While we're at it posting strange manifestos, here's the Codex Seraphinianus and the Voynich Manuscript.

Here's a book (posted further down) which deserves more attention and some background information: A System of Caucasian Yoga

"This rare manuscript reveals secret doctrines of an esoteric Caucasian society outlining exercises which constitute the "short path" for the development of conscious mastery. Count Walewski learned this material when he contacted a group of learned Caucasian followers of the ancient Persian religion called Magian or Zoroastrian. From them he learned orally, the secret traditions of centuries, still preserved by word of mouth among a small and close knit esoteric group with centers hidden in the vast expanse of the Caucasian peaks which are located between the Black Sea (west) and the Caspian Sea (east) and occupied by Russia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia."

Thanks to everyone who has visited or contributed.

A Call For A New Society

"...of temporal processes leads to the conclusion that intelligences other than human are operating on a far larger scale than the human mind can grasp and that this must be postulated to account for the course of events. The thesis can be called that of the intelligent guidance in history. It postulates an evolutionary sequence, but rejects the belief that this sequence can be accounted for by universal laws operating by blind chance, which is the only alternative to intelligent intervention."
