Teachings of a B'on Sorceress, The Ancient Powers

May 2016 New Release.

From the Author: “This book is devoted to our remarkable friend Mani Choejor, who has enriched my life, and the lives of so many others, far more than mere words can express. To say she is a rare and extraordinary young lady would be to gravely understate the case. Mani was born in Tibet and raised and mentored in an ancient B’on monastery by an Abbot known to be a true B’on master of great power, one of perhaps two or three remaining teachers of the primeval esoteric arts of B’on magic, or ‘sorcery.’

“I will straightaway point out that this book narrates experiences which were wholly inexplicable in the ordinary sense. These events demonstrated Mani’s ability to manipulate physical ‘reality’ in a manner that is not ordinarily accepted in the Western world as part of the field of human activity or ability. The purpose of this book is to illustrate those ‘non-ordinary’ events and the knowledge that made them possible.” —M.G. Hawking

From the Publisher: For thousands of years Tibet has been a fabled land of mystery and magic. Isolated from the rest of the world by its topography and remote setting on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau—the highest in the world, with an average elevation of almost 15,000 feet—Tibet is home to the 4000 year old capital of the forgotten kingdom of Zhang Zhung, the ancient realm of the original pre-Buddhist B’on religion.

According to their own histories, B’on was founded in 16,000 B.C. by the earliest known Buddha, Tonpa Shenrab Miwoche. Like Siddhārtha Gautama, our most recent historical Buddha, Shenrab renounced his life as a prince to become a monk, achieved enlightenment, and composed teachings that enable attainment of the highest knowledge and power. B’on incorporated Buddhist-like elements, similar to Tantra, long prior to and apart from the influence of Buddhism.

This very rare form of esoteric B’on contains huge amounts of arcane and elemental magic, in keeping with its view of the cosmos as a unity, able to be manipulated in heightened states of awareness through clandestine techniques and practices.

These profound esoteric teachings begin and end with a clear premise: “The Universe is but a mirage which exists in the mind, springs from it, is controlled by it, and sinks into it.”

Taken directly from the archived field notes and journals of explorer M.G. Hawking’s five years in Nepal and Tibet, this book contains detailed narratives of Hawking’s experiences and conversations with a true B’on sorceress, providing rare, first-hand accounts of her demonstrations of psychokinetic powers and in-depth descriptions of her apprenticeship and the esoteric knowledge that allowed her to attain such extraordinary abilities.
