This book provides the most important and illuminating analysis of Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man drawing that has ever been made in the more than 500 years that have elapsed since its production. Everyone in the past has focused on how the drawing illustrates the fit of the human body to both a square and a circle. However, this was not the real intent of the drawing, but served mainly as a distraction to divert attention from the anomalies that hide a truly dark revelation. It has been discovered that Da Vinci followed a mathematically precise geometric model for the construction not only of the square, the circle and the equilateral triangle (which fits the spread-apart pair of legs), but also of a pentagram which Da Vinci chose to hide. With this model, all 4 of the geometric shapes are pure functions of the radius of the circle. Although Da Vinci hid the pentagram, most likely because he was using it as a Freemasonic occult symbol, he pointed to its hidden presence by creating a device which makes use of a slight reduction in the radius of the model circle and a minor change in one corner of the square. Even more intriguing are several distortions in the body shape of the human figure in the drawing. These were deliberately constructed to have the man's body fit the image of the ancient dual serpent god Ningishzida. This god is known as a fertility god and a healer, but since the image of Ningishzida is likely a predecessor of the caduceus (the staff of Hermes or Mercury), there seems to be a more sinister aspect to Da Vinci's use of this deity. The Greek god Hermes, who was called Mercury by the Romans, was considered to be the god of thieves as well as a god of deception and trickery. In fitting the human shape to Ningishzida, Da Vinci appears to be proclaiming the rulership of this serpent god over humanity. In the process, he also appears to have found a clever way to indicate that he was gay. It also seems that Da Vinci was showing that Ningishzida creates a satanic chakra system which is superimposed on our yogic chakra system to repress it and connect us to a satanic consciousness. Despite the heavy indoctrination that NASA has promoted for over 50 years saying that Mars is a lifeless planet, the topography of the planet overwhelmingly reveals through scientific measurements that the huge mountains, many craters and other landforms did not arise from natural forces but instead have been artificially constructed. It has been found that the 4 giant mountains of Olympus Mons, Ascraeus Mons, Pavonis Mons and Arsia Mons have been artificially arranged to provide a template for a virtual Vitruvian Martian which can be constructed using the exact same model used by Da Vinci. There is a pyramid nearby which is approximately 30 km in diameter and has the shape of a perfect pentagram. The Martian architects used the 2 northern star points of the pyramid to delineate the radius and the centre (naval position) of the circle which fits the Vitruvian Martian. Da Vinci, as a Freemason, probably had access to privileged information about Mars. It is likely that he used the model of the Vitruvian Martian as the basis for his drawing of the Vitruvian Man. He distorted the model and the human figure in order to secretly send occult messages to elite members of Freemasonry. The distortions are also very likely to have been intended to serve as subliminal messages to the masses in order to exert a satanic influence on an unsuspecting public.

John Carter, the Confederate soldier transported to distant Mars, must save his adopted world from an adversary who is every bit his equal on the Red Planet: Captain Joshua Clark, formerly of the Army of the Potomac and now the strategist for a species of star-hopping conquerors. While Carter and his staunch ally, the Thark chieftain Tars Tarkas, lead a legion of united Green Men and Red Men against the alien assailants, Dejah Thoris - the princess of Barsoom - is held captive by the bloodthirsty Clark in the fallen city of Helium. The "Invaders of Mars" storyline is cosmic-scale action and adventure, courtesy of Ron Marz, the groundbreaking writer of Green Lantern!

"In 1591, Giovanni Paolo Gallucci published his Della simmetria dei corpi humani, an Italian translation of Albrecht Dürer's Four Books on Human Proportion. While Dürer's treatise had been translated earlier in the sixteenth-century into French and Latin, it was Gallucci's Italian translation that endured in popularity as the most cited version of the text in later Baroque treatises, covering topics that were seen as central to arts education, connoisseurship, patronage, and the wider appreciation of the studia humanitatis in general. The text centres on the relationships between beauty and proportion, macrocosm and microcosm: relationships that were not only essential to the visual arts in the early modern era, but that cut across a range of disciplines - music, physiognomics and humoral readings, astronomy, astrology and cosmology, theology and philosophy, even mnemonics and poetry. In his version of the text, Gallucci expanded the educational potential of the treatise by adding a Preface, a Life of Dürer, and a Fifth Book providing a philosophical framework within which to interpret Dürer's previous sections. This translation is the first to make these original contributions by Gallucci accessible to an English-speaking audience. Gallucci's contributions illuminate the significance of symmetry and proportion in the contemporary education of the early modern era, informing our understanding of the intellectual history of this period, and the development of art theory and criticism. This is a valuable resource to early modern scholars and students alike, especially those specialising in history of art, philosophy, history of science, and poetry."--Publisher's website.

Since its original publication, Erwin Panofsky's Meaning in the Visual Arts has been standard reading for students of art history. It is both an introduction to the study of art and, for those with more specialized interests, a profound discussion of art and life in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Panofsky's historical technique reveals an abundance of detail, detail he skillfully relates to the life and work of individual painters and their times. The papers in this volume represent a cross-section of Panofsky's major work. Included are selections from his well-known Studies in Iconology and The Life and Art of Albrecht Durer, plus an introduction and an epilogue--The History of Art as a Humanistic Discipline and Three Decades of Art History in the United States: Impressions of a Transplanted European--as well as pieces written especially for this collection. All display Panofsky's vast erudition and deep commitment to a humanistic conception of art and art history.

When I host book signings and give lectures on lottery prediction, people always ask, If lotteries are random draws, how can they be predicted? I always answer the same way. Lotteries are predictable because we have the ability to redirect subtle energy. With about 20 to 30 people present, I always ask how many are familiar with subtle energies. No one has ever raised their hand. And, why should they! It's only been within the last 30 to 40 years that Science discovered subtle energies and their role in manifesting human desire. It's only been within the last 10 years that this research and experimentation has been available to the general public in books like Lynne McTaggart's The Intention Experiment or Dr. Tiller's Conscious Acts of Creation. As a matter of fact, it has only been this year (2013) that Dr. Peter Higgs won the Nobel Prize for his work on the God Particle. The first subtle energy particle ever found at the new CERN accelerator. With these discoveries and experiments on the redirection of subtle energy, Scientists believe that a new technology has been born. Significantly more powerful than electromagnetic energy, significantly more powerful than nuclear energy, subtle energy technology will bring about new ways for human populations to interact, and new ways to communicate. It will significantly change our health care industry and influence the movement towards world peace. Most interesting, are the time and space attributes of subtle energy that allow the human mind to predict the future and consequently win lotteries. In the science of Quantum Mechanics, experimenting at the level of subtle energy, scientists found that their observations were affecting the outcome of the experiments. Somehow, the experimenter's consciousness was having an effect on our everyday reality of atoms and elements. This led to other experiments many concerning time displacement. As it turns out, subtle energy does not conform to the way you and I experience sequential time. Subtle energy is unbound by time and space - giving it predictive potential. A few daring researchers now understand subtle energy to be a vast field of potential energy supporting our everyday reality and somehow this energy is intimately interconnected with our minds. Consequently, at this stage of subtle energy technology research, researchers are studying ways that the mind can amplify subtle energies to manifest human desires for better health, wealth and abundance, world peace, lasting vitality, and prophetic vision. Dream a Lottery Win Tonight, specializes in the application of subtle energy and its prophetic vision attributes. We accomplish this by activating an energized intention near the mind's source of subtle energy. In this way, we amplify the intention to win a lottery. Of course, we could amplify any intention including those for better health or world peace. We decided on lottery prediction not because it was easy but because it was difficult and because the results are quantitative not subjective. In developing the skill of prophetic vision to win a lottery, we use an energized intention activated as close to the mind's Source of subtle energy as possible. To get close to the Source, we use mantras. These mantras resonate frequencies that are specific to the results we seek. In this case, we use the Lakshmi Mantra, used since antiquity to enhance ones abilities at games of chance. Once close to the source, we activate an energized intention. The intention is energized with emotion and bright sense visualizations. We perform this meditation just before retiring enhancing our dreams allowing us to predict a winning number. In this way, we use subtle energies to win the lottery. Larry Vingelman Author

This completely reworked second edition of Modern Esoteric includes new information, over a dozen additional images, and up-to-date revisions. Winner of the Best Book Design 2014, Modern Esoteric examines the flaws in modern history and looks at how conspiracy theories, esoteric knowledge, and fringe subjects can be used to help change the dead-end course humanity seems to be following. The Lifeology section explores the long and storied "alternative narrative" of life on this planet. In the Control section, author Brad Olsen examines how Big Brother is here in the form of the New World Order, and how they keep the knowledge of humankind's true nature from the mass population. Finally, the Thrive section looks at all the ways humans are evolving to achieve their full potential.

Examining the flaws of mainstream society, this collection of conspiracy theory, esoteric knowledge, and fringe subjects seeks to present solutions to current social, economic, and environmental world issues. This book encourages the exploration and integration of modern science with ancient wisdom, which will lead modern society towards advancement and enlightenment. Topics discussed include religious mythos, government manipulation, technological advances, and potentially a utopia for humanity.
