Nikola Tesla: Lectures and Patents is one of the first reference works to come out of Belgrade following the arrival of Tesla's inheritance in 1952. Here is a wealth of information in the form of documents drawn from the Nikola Tesla Museum archive, compiled into a single large volume.

The purpose of Nikola Tesla: Lectures and Patents is to acquaint the reader with Nikola Tesla's most important works in the numerous fields of science to which he dedicated himself. This book contains two parts: lectures, and patents.

The first part contains five of the most important lectures of Nikola Tesla in chronological order. In these lectures, Tesla explained his achievements in the field of high frequencies and high voltages as well as high-frequency oscillators for electro-therapeutic and other purposes.

The second part deals with Nikola Tesla's 112 patents registered at the Patent Office of the United States of America. These patents are divided into select groups, each of which arranged according to its order of registration, and ranging from aircraft, circuit controllers, condensers, high frequency engineering, lighting, meters, motors & generators, power distribution, radiant energy, reciprocating engines, turbo machinery, to wireless technology.

Before the turn of the 20th century, electricity remained a mere scientific curiosity. Nikola Tesla, arguably more than anyone else, changed that. But Tesla's pioneering research in electricity represents only a portion of the scientific and technical innovations that elevated him to science godhood.

Prodigal Genius, The Extraordinary Life of Nikola Tesla covers, among other topics, the story of Tesla's inspiration for his career in engineering, shows his theories of electricity that went against the scientific establishment, explores his friendships, investigates the story of the lost Nobel Prize, and, dig into Tesla's own views of the paranormal.

Written by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author John J. O'Neill, Prodigal Genius, The Extraordinary Life of Nikola Tesla details the life of one the greatest geniuses of our time.

Zhan Zhuang, the Art of Nourishing Life is the exploration of an ancestral practice: Zhan Zhuang, the practice of physical and meditative postures. Through this practice, a continual process of adjustment, learning, and purification takes place; it is a process by which the mind and body mutually integrate, triggering the unification of the self and its surroundings.

It is through this form, which in ancient China was named symbiosis--a process by which the mind and body merge together with the Tao--that an infinite field of possibilities opens to us, both in the treatment and prevention of diseases, and at the level of development of latent potential within us.

In Zhan Zhuang, The Art of Nourishing Life, Dr. Yu Yongnian not only unveils the heritage of martial and purifying arts--previously available only in an unintelligible language--but also translates them into an accessible form that reveals the laws governing the body and the mind.

While The Conscious Resistance Trilogy was written for the reader interested in meditation, consciousness, indigenous teachings, and spirituality, its deeper message lies in the Philosophy of Freedom, Self-Governance, and Anarchism - from the Greek anarchos, having no ruler. The Conscious Resistance Trilogy is an exploration into the practical as well as the spiritual realms of the true meaning of Freedom.

In Part I, Reflections on Anarchy and Spirituality, authors Derrick Broze and John Vibes lay out the case for a synthesis of spiritual teachings and Anarchist Philosophy as an empowered path towards a freer, and more conscious world. This part features discussions on the intersection of Anarchy and Shamanism, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Taoism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Hinduism.

In Part II, Finding Freedom in an Age of Confusion, we focus on the heart and soul of activists, truth seekers, and freethinkers. A series of essays explores the human struggle in the search for freedom, discussing overcoming depression, confusion and fear that can come along with understanding the circumstances of our present situation.

In Part III, Manifesto of the Free Humans, we explore deeper concepts outlined in Parts I and II, including Anarchism, Agorism, community building, spiritual healing, property, decentralization, permaculture, and methods for resisting the State. The authors also explore the history of America's individual Anarchist movement and the concept of Sovereignty of the Individual. The final section outlines a vision for an intentional community based on these concepts and outlines how this community will attempt to live the message of The Conscious Resistance or Holistic Anarchism.

La historia es escrita por los vencedores. Pero no es confort suficiente para los que han sido eliminados por las plumas de los editores. Durante a os, los manuales cient ficos han asociado la electricidad y la luz a un solo hombre, Thomas Edison, mientras que el nombre del genio de las tecnolog as el ctricas que alimentan el mundo moderno permanece olvidado en un peque o rinc n de la historia de la ciencia.

Antes de comenzar el siglo XX, la electricidad era una simple inquietud cient fica m s. Fue Nikola Tesla, sin duda m s que ning n otro, el que cambi esta perspectiva. Pero las investigaciones de Tesla sobre la electricidad solo representan una parte de las innovaciones cient ficas y t cnicas que lo han elevado a la categor a de genio.

Nikola Tesla: Mi Vida, Mi Investigaci n presenta cuatro partes: Una introducci n de la vida de Tesla, la autobiograf a de Tesla, algunos de los trabajos m s importantes de Tesla explicados de forma sencilla y una colecci n de cien p ginas con fotograf as poco conocidas realizadas en diferentes etapas de la vida de Tesla. Estas van desde su partida de nacimiento hasta una ltima fotograf a suya antes de su muerte en 1943, pasando por la primera fotograf a realizada con luz fosforescente.

In this century, so hurried, incoherent, full of riches which dominate us more than they serve, we have need of a true mastery and of the joy that comes of it. But our psychology knows yet only the surfaces of being, and our imported orientalism illumines some obscure depths which may perhaps be adequate for the cross-legged sage, but not for the beleaguered men we are.

This now classic introduction to Sri Aurobindo not only tells us the story of his life-in itself a remarkable adventure-but Satprem also takes us along in a methodical exploration of Sri Aurobindo's integral yoga, showing how it leads to a divine rehabilitation of Matter and gives our painful evolution its meaning and hope. Now the time may have come at last to unveil the Mysteries and to recover the complete truth of the two poles within a third position, which is neither that of the materialists nor that of the spiritualists.

Sri Aurobindo or The Adventure of Consciousness has been written from a Western point of view and for those who yearn for a truth of Life and not only a truth with eyes closed. It presents just one aspect of Sri Aurobindo, the most practical one. We only hope it will lead the reader to explore for himself Sri Aurobindo, and perhaps, with him, find the perfect harmony of East and West, of inner freedom and outer mastery.

Like no other book, Manly P. Hall's legendary The Secret Teachings of All Ages is a codex to the esoteric traditions and ancient occult. Students of arcane practices, hidden wisdom and ancient symbols treasure Hall's magnum opus above all other works.

Through his meticulous exploration of occult schools through the ages, the author highlights the common esoteric philosophy that has been handed down from civilization to civilization since antiquity. As Hall explores secret societies from past to present, ancient symbols suddenly make sense, folk legends take on a new dimension, and historical mysteries begin to reveal their secrets.

In this monumental work, Hall covers topics such as Alchemy, Cryptology, Freemasonry, Gemology, Kabbalah, Mystic Christianity, Nicholas Flammel, Pythagorean Philosophy, Rosicrucianism and other Secret Societies, Tarot, the Hiramic legend, the pyramids, the Qabbalah, the Tree of the Sephiroth, the Zodiac, the identity of William Shakespeare, the teachings of Thoth Hermes Trismegistus, among others.

Unlike modern occultists, the author does not shy away from exposing the great influence of Freemasonry and other secret societies on the world today. Furthermore, he does not shy away from explaining how occultism could be used for both nefarious purposes through demonology and black magic as well as for the betterment of humankind.

It was apparent that materialism was in complete control of the economic structure, the final objective of which was for the individual to become part of a system providing an economic security at the expense of the human soul, mind, and body. -- Manly P. Hall, The Secret Teachings of All Ages

A Search in Secret India is the story of Paul Brunton's journey around India, living among yogis, mystics and gurus, some of whom he found convincing, others not. He finally finds the peace and tranquility which come with self-knowledge when he meets and studies with the great sage Sri Ramana Maharishi.

Paul Brunton was a British philosopher, mystic, traveler, and guru. He left a journalistic career to live among yogis, mystics, and holy men, and studied Eastern and Western esoteric teachings. Dedicating his life to an inward and spiritual quest, Brunton felt charged to communicate his experiences about what he learned in the East to others. His works had a major influence on the spread of Eastern mysticism to the West.

Taking pains to express his thoughts in layperson's terms, Brunton was able to present what he learned from the Orient and from ancient tradition as a living wisdom. His writings express his view that meditation and the inward quest are not exclusively for monks and hermits, but will also support those living normal, active lives in the Western world.

The biography of Russia's greatest novelist by his daughter, Aimée Dostoevsky. Includes chapters on the origins of the Dostoevsky family, the childhood of Fyodor Dostoevsky, adolescence, the Petrachevsky conspiracy, prison life, Dostoevsky as soldier, Dostoevsky's marriages, his travels, Dostoevsky as a father, his relations with Turgenev and Tolstoy, Dostoevsky as Slavophile and Dostoevsky's last days.

The story of the great novelist told by his daughter. She gives a familiar and intimate account of his daily life, character, and habits. She is naturally her father's partisan in all quarrels that he had. But there are facts and points of view in this book that can be found in no other work. To those who have read Dostoevsky's novels these new and intimate revelations will be of keen interest, but even if one has never read any of the novels, this biography is written in such a manner as to hold the attention of the reader from beginning to end. - William Lyon Phelps

About Ashtanga, Embodiment and Complex Systems:

The collected essays in this book represent the evolution of my Ashtanga practice, teaching and worldview for the 10-year period that began with a new teacher, a new home, and a new philosophical and spiritual framework in 2014.

Four of the essays were specifically written about my first, second and fifth trips to practice in Mysore with R. Sharath Jois.

The other essays explore physical, energetic and philosophical dimensions of Ashtanga practice, reinterpreted through my own animistic and complex systems oriented worldview.

The Spirits' Book is part of the Spiritist Codification, and is regarded as one of the five fundamental works of Spiritism. Originally published by the French educator Allan Kardec, it was the first -and still remains- the most important spiritist book, because it addresses questions developed by the author.

The Spirits' Book is structured as a collection of questions regarding God, the order of the universe, the origin of the spirits, reincarnation, life after death, the afterlife, the purpose of the life, angels, evil and good, dreams, telepathy, prayer, illegality, war, justice, freedom, suicide, egoism, love, etc.

The answers, according to Kardec, were given to him by a group of spirits who identified themselves as The Spirit of Truth, with whom he communicated in several Spiritist sessions. Kardec, who considered himself an organizer rather than an author, grouped the questions and their answers by theme, occasionally including lengthier digressions the spirits had dictated to him on specific subjects, some signed by philosophers such as Augustine of Hippo and Thomas Aquinas and writers including Voltaire.

The Spirits' Book is an essential work to read, study and meditate for the true spiritual seeker.

Es el marco inicial de una doctrina que ha ocasionado profundas repercusiones en el pensamiento y la visi n acerca de la vida de una considerable porci n de la humanidad. Su estructura est compuesta por cuatro partes que contienen 1000 cuestiones formuladas por Allan Kardec, el Codificador del Espiritismo. Aborda en forma l gica y racional las ense anzas de los Esp ritus desde los aspectos cient fico, filos fico y religioso. Independientemente de toda creencia o convicci n religiosa, la lectura de este libro ser de inmenso valor, porque trata acerca de Dios, la inmortalidad del alma, la naturaleza de los Esp ritus, sus relaciones con los hombres, las leyes morales, la vida presente, la vida futura y el porvenir de la humanidad, todos asuntos de inter s general y de gran actualidad.

La moral de los Esp ritus superiores se resume, como la de Cristo, en esta m xima evang lica: «Hagamos a los dem s lo que quisi ramos que los dem s nos hiciesen a nosotros . Esto es, hacer el bien y no el mal. En este principio encuentra el hombre la regla universal de conducta que puede guiarlo hasta en sus m s insignificantes acciones.

From ancient times, people of India have practiced spiritual disciplines designed to clear the mind and support a state of serene, detached awareness. The practices for developing this desired state of balance, purity, wisdom, and peacefulness of mind are known collectively as yoga.

Yoga means yoke or union - referring to union with the true Self, the goal described in the Upanishads.

The sages distinguished four basic types of people and developed practices that are particularly suitable for each type, in order that each man can attain the desired union with the Self.

• For rational people, there is the path of Knowledge.
• For meditative people, there is the path of Self-Knowledge.
• For naturally active people, there is the path of Selfless Action.
• For emotional people, there is the Path of Devotion.

History is written by the victors. But that is no comfort to those crossed out by the editor's pen. For years, science textbooks equated electricity and light with one man, Thomas Edison, while the genius whose pioneering electrical technologies truly power the modern world languished as a minor note in scientific history.

Before the turn of the 20th century, electricity remained a mere scientific curiosity. Nikola Tesla, arguably more than anyone else, changed that. But Nikola's pioneering research in electricity represents only a portion of the scientific and technical innovations that elevated him to science godhood.

Tesla not only expanded and revolutionized the work of his predecessors, he also leapfrogged ahead of his contemporaries to the next step.

Nikola Tesla: My Life, My Research has three parts: Tesla's autobiography; Tesla's major research programs explained in simple words; and an eighty-page collection of rare photographs taken at several stages of Tesla's life; from his birth certificate, to the first photograph ever taken by phosphorescent light, to the last known photograph before Tesla's death, in 1943.

Nikola Tesla's accomplishments are today still underrated. While Edison is credited with being the inventor of the light bulb, it is Tesla's alternating current that powers much of the world. Likewise, while Guglielmo Marconi is popularly credited with inventing the radio, Tesla's work was instrumental in its development. In fact, the Supreme Court overturned Marconi's patent in 1943, crediting Tesla with being the first to patent radio technology.

Tesla used his eponymous Tesla Coil, a high frequency transformer, as the basis for experiments in electrical lighting, x-rays, phosphorescence, electro-therapy, and the wireless transmission of electric energy. He is also credited with inventing the fluorescent bulb and neon light, as well as the spark plug for internal combustion engines. Tesla provided the basis for radar, the electron microscope, and microwave ovens. He even dabbled in robotics, far ahead of his time.

Selected Tesla Writings is a collection of scientific papers and articles about the work of one of the greatest geniuses of all time.
