Lords of Light: Initiation in the Western Mysteries - W. E. Butler

These are the lectures of W. E. Butler, an early 20th-century occultist who studied spiritual traditions from around the world and billed his work as "the teachings of the Ibis Fraternity."  In these pages, he speaks of ritual and ceremonial magic, the awakening of kundalini energy, the path of the qaballistic tree of life, and relinquishing our false ego.
