Hi folks,
------------
"I'm aware that the subject of this post should be posted elsewhere in the forum, but I go to this CM forum almost daily from my bookmark and feel more comfortable to post it here first. However, moderators can move it at anytime to a more appropriate forum and when it does, pls remove this note."
------------
I've been collecting and hunting for esoteric pdf documents on the Net for the last months and have made it available online. Publishing it serves as my back up and reference point and I'm also hoping that other newbs alike can learn along with me.

I feel the need to learn, but as I have no other resource available in my country to learn and find mentor on this, I'd like to gradually expand this site into a free learning resource for the community and the newbs and to also help myself. For this reason, I'm looking for volunteers of adepts (knowledgable & practicing magician) to help me set up the site to better serve it's purpose (ie.focusing on the site's article section for the beginning magician).

At the moment, I've put some handpicked articles that had help me get started, and hoping that some of you who wants to volunteer can assist, advice, suggest contents, and even submit their own articles and thoughts.

I'm not sure if anyone would be interested and willing to set aside some of their time to provide their "public service" on this, but any little help and assistance is very much appreciated.

Heyza Kinjo

I have over 300 different ebooks on my computer, all relating to the esoteric...well some are of different religions, but mostly the occult. Around 200 of these ebooks are pdf file format, the rest are html. I would gladly share these files with you if you know what you want. I don't have an index so you'll have to give me a basic idea of what you're looking for:).

Edit: I also have experience in web design if you need a little help.

Thanks Overflowed_Buffer,
I've designed this site on my own but welcome further improvements and interactivity. I have a very little programming skill and I do plan to install some features that I need help with.

As for the e-books, I would be very interested if you can donate files which my library haven't got yet. I think I AM will also be interested. I do not know what I want at this point as I'm working on other parts of this at the moment. I would be interested to see what other people want from this library and I would need your help to suggest addition to what's not available yet and you can upload it later when I'm ready. Well, I can tell you is that I work like an ant :p So do expect a prompt follow up from me.

Do also kindly explore the site and please come back to give critics so I can improve it.

Perhaps it would be easier on you if you were to tell me what you had. I could eliminate those from my list and search for what may be of interest to you or your users. I assume, since this is in fact in the Ceremonial Magic topic, that these texts are to be ceremonial or hermetic?

Thatz a wonderful idea kinjo..good effort.

It can be organised in a way just like donald micheal kraig would start kind of sequential order.

I feel a lot of search goes into finding out from where to start and what to do...though its a learning on its own,but the direction gets wayward because majority of practitioners are newbies or solitary.

A cumulative section of rituals,sigils,servitor creation,goetic evocations can be useful.
Good articles on astral projection with eastern and western ways of doing meditations can be useful too.
It can be like online curriculum with learning from discussions of higher magicians.


We have so much of information here.Its just the organisation of the information that needs to be done.

I sound more like occult complete ...or occult 101..:-)

I'm still a few months on my walk into this path and wouldn't know what you might have. I based my library on the work of I AM from the CM library and added my own findings.

My site will be down soon for a few days for maintenace, but it's still up now and you can check what I have available at www.sacred-magick.com on the pdf section.

I do have a suggestion for you: Allow right clicking at your site. It is really annoying to find that you can't downoad files to your computer from a site when you are on a slow connection. It is horrible to view pdf's through your browser on such a slow connection. This is why I can't get to Angel Names, Magical Words, and Names of God Dictionary.pdf on your site, frustrating me much.




By the way, does anyone have an ebook Reference of the Names of Power (meanings, pronounciation, hebrew spelling, etc) ? I would be very interested in adding that to my library.

Yes i know. I purposely disabled it :p That's why the server will be down for a few days soon as I'm moving to a new server where I can reveal my own domain on all pages for a start (currently using forward service)

I want to host all of this files and currently in the process of looking for a sponsor.

I am on an expensive dial up and will need a volunteer with fast cable connection and time. to help uploading 600Mb of these files to my new server when I got the sponsor. Well, I could do it on my own, but it will take me weeks and cost hundreds of dollars on my phone bill and ISP on unreliable 56k dial up.

About the names of power, I think I saw it somewhere on my library if I'm not mistaken. Take a look.

You may have something I don't have yet. I will follow up later on this. Still busy and getting tired on dealing with all these sponsorship thing :(

[QUOTE=Overflowed_Buffer]So on your new site, you will or will not allow right clicking? This is a big thing for me, I hate not beling allowed to use it lol.[/QUOTE]
Yea, I feel you. I do right clicking all the time and know how it feels when not being able to do so. Well, right click will be available only whenever I'm able to upload all files in my new server. Also, I'm having programming difficulties on having individual pages to open in it's main frame and I'd like to be able to refer and promote each page seperately to the search engine with it's own individual titles, so people can bookmark it directly & seperately for their returns. I need these two important points resolved first until I will allow right clicking throughout the site.

For this forum only, I will share my humble tips:
One keyboard shortcuts (right click alternative) I don't want too many people know about (since the page will open in a new window WITHOUT my navigation frames & reveals my true URL) is to left click the link you want to download, while pressing down the "shift" key on your keyboard. A new window WILL open a blank screen revealing the link, click "stop" button to prevent it from downloading in your browser. On the URL address bar you now have a direct link to the file where you can copy-and-paste it to your download manager.

To further automate this, you can configure your dl (download) manager to "catch" .pdf extension (add the file extension) and monitor clicks from your assigned browser, to recognize it as downloadable files.

Once you've done this, as soon as you copy the link on your browser address bar as described above, your dl manager will automaticaly pop up a confirmation download message. I'm referring this tip using FlashGet to do all my downloads (you can get it from downloads.com) Other dl softwares may will be able to perform the same function.

Allright, here's another one. Use "Opera" browser. Opera by default will disable my scripts and you can right click on everything you want. Just mind some "visual differences and behaviours" when you're using Opera. Opera is a very speedy alternative text based browser if you're just looking for info, but not too visually attractive, and "Lynx" is about the same.

I REALLY need someone with lightning speed connection to help me with the transfer and will look forward for volunteers to come forward.

Thank you very much. I guess I wasn't really thinking, I will just program wget to download one file if I like it. (I kind of already knew your first tip;-)) I dream of a world were right clicking is not frowned upon...when right clickers all around the world will jump up and shout their praises that they have successfully used a picture on the internet as their desktop background...or maybe I am on something right now. Sorry about that...

I'm going to give one last post on this thread. All files is uploaded completely so no volunteer will be needed on this one. Overflowed, right clicking is enabled on all PDF section so you can rightclick whenever you want! Phil Hine mailed about adding my site to his link page http://www.philhine.org.uk/resources/links.html I was very happy and honoured :razz:
