The Runic Bible, Paperback

The Runes tend to be misunderstood for what they really are, and no standard explanation can adequately convey the complexities comprising them, the levels of vibrational frequency through which they operate, or the magnitude of their essence. They are direct extensions of the original source of all creation which many have come to know as the "All" - these are the universal forces.The Runes are most often used for divination purposes, and in some circles, they are placed on altars for ritualistic purposes. Those who lean toward occult practices often call upon the Runes to strengthen their magical workings, and a few even attempt to meditate with them.Much of the material contained within this book provides source material for general instruction, while at the same time, paving a road to higher runic awareness. Not everyone desires this higher awareness, but it is common knowledge that the Runes carry the mysteries of the universe. Therefore, what book on the subject of the Runes would be complete without such a discussion?Originally, each Rune was recognized as a mantra, or galdr form. This galdr form sometimes appears in the remote or aspect name, but sometimes it is omitted. The names of the Norse Runes, surprisingly enough, followed close to the Sanskrit mantra forms.In order to properly determine these mantra forms in Sanskrit, it was necessary for me to analyze the alphabet grammatically, and meditate on each one before receiving guidance from my Hamingja/Atman, or Avalokita.For the convenience of those who have already studied the Runes, I have provided both the German and Old Norse forms of the Elder Futhark; but this book is based on the Sanskrit form.
