    Dear Rawn,

    >>>Yes, that can be un-nerving and at the same time, very
    liberating. :) I trust in your ability to integrate these two
    perspectives. After all, science and mysticism attempt to describe
    the same essential universe, just with different languages and
    different mind-sets. Integrating the two is really not much different
    than speaking two languages.<<<

    Un-nerving, unsettling, frightening, liberating, confusing and
    ecstatic all at the same time would be a better way of putting it. :)

    As for integrating these two perspectives: at this point in time I'm
    not quite sure whether that is actually possible or not. However,
    it's not like the two perspectives are totally mutually exclusive of
    one another. It is just that the Hermetic and Kabbalahistic
    perspective can explain the scientific viewpoint but not vis a vis.

    Now, questions! In several places within his books Bardon speaks
    about something called 'mummial magic', yet never quite expands upon
    what he means by that. I get the feeling that he is refering to
    something along the line of good old fashioned sympathetic and
    contagious magic as posited by James Frazer within _The Golden Bough_
    which relates heavily to some old shamanistic practices. I'm
    wondering if you could expand upon this as an internet search really
    didn't yeild too much in the way of results.

    Love and Live well,
    Peter Reist
