Collection Alan Chapman Collection

[HoldAll]

A new paradigm that delivers a genuine transformation of occultism. The author assumes no previous knowledge, only a willingness to explore what magick offers, yet it is apparent to anyone with a background in the subject that Alan Chapman is drawing on a wide range of experience, from classical Crowleyean Magick, to eastern metaphysics, and back again to Discordianism and Chaos Magick. Chapman's writing-style is humorous, direct, seductively logical, and his enthusiasm for the benefits of magick is both tangible and infectious. The novice magician will indeed find themselves equipped to commence all sorts of magickal operations: trance work, enchantment, divination, and even some of the higher forms of spiritual development. To experienced magicians, Chapman offers a subtler challenge: he revitalises magick by cutting it free from the extreme relativism Chaos Magick bequeathed, provocatively redefining it as: the art, science and culture of experiencing truth.

Haven't been able to find it yet... maybe you'd like to make a formal request in Book Requests, such comments just get buried in threads like this one.

@HoldAll There seems to be a audiobook version, can you confirm its the one?

I've listened to the first ones of these. My understanding is that the audio is the same teachings as the book. It's the recordings of the full sessions he presented.

They were converted into a book; they're not a companion to the book. So it's a valid way of getting the full teachings, arguably more valid.

(As an unedited live recording though, they're pretty slow paced and involve a lot of "pauses for effect" so you might still have a strong preference for the book version)

No idea. I don't have the book, have I, so there's nothing to compare these recordings with. The amazon preview has an index with 12 chapters as well; the few pages shown there look in fact like a transcript, so the audio files on the author's site may be a valid alternative.

Then post those gems; Book Shares isn't your personal chatroom. Verbal warning.

I'm actually trying to do exactly that right now but I can't figure out how to upload the file. I'm not seeing an option that will let me. What exactly do I have to do?

Now you're being obtuse. Can't you see all those mega.nz links? You'll have to get a free account, then you can upload your books.
