Mind Body & Soul Book Review: Becoming A Garment of Isis - A Nine-Stage Initiatory Path of Egyptian Spirituality by Naomi Ozaniec, published by Inner Traditions. 315 pages.
From the Preface: Melbourne 2009 “As the light is a great comfort to a traveller on a dark night, as the light is a great comfort to a ship approaching a new coastline, as the light is a great comfort to the distressed, as the beacon is a great comfort to a besieged people, so I am a light for the soul. Only when your soul powers have begun to stir will you seek me out. Until then, you will be content with the world of appearances; you are not seek my light. As a light provides a guide in dark places, so my light shines without ceasing. As one flame may light another, so I will ignite your soul powers so that you may come into the fullness of your own divine light. But releasing the illumination of the soul is more than the work of a lifetime, so I open the door of remembering so that you may walk in my footsteps following my light to where it leads. I have been a light upon the Earth and it is my wish that my light shall burn brightly again. For where I am remembered upon the altar through the lighting of lights, so I am also as a light in your heart. This is where our relationship begins and where our lights may meet, the greater holding the lesser in its brilliance. Once we have embraced soul light to soul light, we are linked by the love of our hearts. For do not doubt my love for all that lives upon earth.”
Already I am impressed with this powerful initiatory book written by a top specialist in this dedicated topic. Expect an academic book but one that is also emotionally and psychologically aware and will change you from the person you are today. It is written for very dedicated students of the mysteries of Isis, she of 1,000 names. It details the following powers: intelligence, inspiration, imagination, meditation, transformation, initiation, mediation, identification, heartmind, spiritmind, and soulmind. We are guided, step by step, to the Crown of the Goddess and are taught how to become her garment. We will be awakened and attuned to a mystical marriage of person and divine knowledge and power.
