History and future of Kampong Ayer, a town in Brunei; collection of articles previously published, 1970-1996.

Brunei, although a relatively small state, is disproportionately important on account of its rich resource base. In addition, in recent years the country has endeavoured to play a greater role in regional affairs, especially through ASEAN, holding the chair of the organisation in 2013, and also beyond the region, fostering diplomatic, political, economic and educational ties with many nations. This book presents much new research and new thinking on a wide range of issues concerning Brunei largely drawn from Bruneian academics. Subjects covered include Brunei’s rich history – the sultanate formerly had much more extensive territories and was a key player in regional affairs; the country’s economy, politics, society and ethnicities; and resource issues and international relations.

The Magus: Kundalini and the Golden Dawn adalah puncak dari perjalanan Spiritual saya melalui Tradisi Misteri Barat setelah mengalami kebangkitan Kundalini secara penuh dan berkelanjutan. Setelah saya bergabung dengan sekolah rahasia dan esoterik yang disebut Golden Dawn, saya diperkenalkan pada Ceremonial Magick—sebuah praktik Alkimia Spiritual yang ditujukan untuk penyetelan dan pembersihan Cakra—yang tujuan utamanya adalah transformasi pribadi dan Pencerahan. Saya telah menemukan bahwa seni pemanggilan energi yang sakral ini tidak hanya mengurangi rasa takut dan kecemasan yang saya rasakan setelah membangkitkan Kundalini, tetapi juga memajukan perkembangan Spiritual saya sepuluh kali lipat dalam waktu singkat. Oleh karena itu, saya mendedikasikan diri saya untuk menguasai seluruh sistem Golden Dawn. Setelah memimpin sebuah kelompok Golden Dawn di Toronto, Ontario, saya meninggalkan sistem yang terorganisir tetapi terus mengajarkan ilmu ceremonial magick kepada para Pencari Tuhan YME lainnya. Saya menyadari bahwa dunia kehilangan sebuah sistem Magick yang terpadu dan komprehensif yang menggabungkan Spiritualitas Timur dan Misteri Barat, yang presentasinya jelas dan ringkas, tanpa konotasi gaib yang samar-samar. Apa yang muncul adalah The Magus - sebuah ilmu energi Universal yang kita semua ambil bagian sebagai manusia. Anda tidak perlu menjadi bagian dari Ordo Magickal untuk mendapatkan manfaat penuh dari inisiasi ke dalam energi Tata Surya. Segala sesuatu yang dapat diperoleh dari latihan Ceremonial Magick dapat dilakukan dari kenyamanan di rumah Anda. Jika Anda mendedikasikan sepuluh menit sehari untuk latihan ini, Anda dapat maju secara substansial dalam evolusi Spiritual Anda. Latihan Ceremonial Magick di The Magus disajikan sebagai bagian dari program Alkimia Spiritual yang bertujuan untuk membantu Anda terhubung dengan Jiwa Yang Lebih Tinggi dan memanfaatkan potensi tertinggi Anda sebagai manusia Spiritual. Program-program ini berjalan seiring dengan ceramah pengetahuan tentang Qabalah, Lima Elemen, Tujuh Cakra, Astrologi, Tarot, Ramalan, meditasi, Filosofi Hermetik dan Alkimia, Misteri Kristen dan Mesir, Sihir Henokh, dan banyak lagi. The Magus juga berisi banyak pengetahuan mengenai Kundalini dari perspektif Timur dan Barat. Ketika hubungan Anda dengan Sang Pencipta semakin kuat melalui karya-karya di dalam The Magus, kekuatan pribadi Anda akan meningkat, memungkinkan Anda untuk mewujudkan kehidupan yang selalu Anda inginkan. Dengan menjadi versi terbaik dari diri Anda, Anda dapat menjadi pahlawan dalam kisah Anda sendiri dan mengalami kegembiraan dan kegembiraan dalam hidup. Akhir dari permainan The Magus adalah penyelesaian Pekerjaan Agung dan perluasan serta penyatuan kesadaran individu dengan Kesadaran Kosmik.
