Secret Talks Volumes
Books based on talks given by E.J. Gold over a period of years.
These books are the basis of many of the paperbacks Gateways publishes.
The paperback versions are edited from the private publication volumes.
Readers who are interested in the data in a less digested form, or
who simply wish to acquire a complete collection of the author's writings,
can still buy these volumes from us. Keep in mind that the edited paperback versions are
all approved by the author and often include updates and clarifications of the
ideas and exercises. On the other hand, several of these volumes are too
esoteric for paperback circulation and will probably remain as limited edition publications,
whether in print or electronic form, or any other format on the drawing boards for
humans or other sentient future readers. (Please note that for the ultimate
in raw data, recorded archive talks are available from
Cloister Recordings Real World Catalog).
Volume I
The Human Biological Machine as a Transformational Apparatus
Existing passively and silently within the human biological body is a deeper self with the potential for continuation if it is able to achieve transformation. This volume explores the exact relationship of the essential self and the "machine," and lays the foundation for real Work-on-self towards evolution.
Paperback $15.95; Hardcover $75.00
Volume II
Work on Self
This book contains 24 practical exercises designed to bring the machine into the waking state that senior pupils fondly refer to as "The Big 24." The exercises provide valuable tools for the beginning stages of work towards the activation of the higher transformational functions of the machine.
$125.00
Volume III
Prayer-Absolute and Sacred Obligation
To realize that the Absolute suffers and needs help is something which contemporary man can never discover on his own. This realization can only come from one in whom Real Conscience has developed as the result of serious work-on-self. This volume contains vital exercises designed to awaken the heart so that we may feel compassion toward the Absolute and be willing to take upon ourselves the sacred obligation of Prayer Absolute to alleviate his suffering.
$75.00
Volume IV
Visions in the Stone (formerly Journeys to Inaccessible Monasteries)
This first volume of the advanced series presents the background, methods and some results of psychometric readings of "Soorptkalknian Thought-Tapes" or recordings intentionally placed in certain artifacts by esoteric communities for future generations. The newly revised edition incorporates key passages from the out-of-print Autobiography of a Sufi. Mr. Gold has added vivid new material on his encounters with the hidden guides, travels in the Middle East and studies of the Yezidi Dervishes, revealing their connection and importance for those in this lineage today. The edition also has a pencil signed and numbered black & white serigraph art work bound in as a frontispiece, making it both a collectible and a limited edition book.

Work of Groups

Volume VI
The Seven Bodies of Man
The process of evolution consists of building higher, finer, more subtle bodies within man's existing biological machine. There are seven possible bodies of man Organic, Emotional, Mental, Astral, Soul, Causal and Angelic each formed voluntarily from the one existing before, each a step in the stairway to heaven. The nature, function and importance of each of these higher bodies is explained in this volume.
$100.00
Volume VII
The Great Laws
The universe is governed by specific and exact laws from which there is no possible deviation. Ordinary man is woven into the fabric of this tapestry and his existence is entangled in a multiplicity of laws. With higher knowledge however, it is possible for him to have greater freedom and live life on a higher scale where he is subject to only one law.
$100.00
Volume VIII
Science of Objective Hypnotism
Under the heavy hypnotic spell of organic life, ordinary man has no will of his own. His attention is seduced and his authority over his biological machine lost to external circumstance. This volume examines the nature of hypnotism and the role that attention will play in awakening the machine.
$100.00
Volume IX
Objective Magic and Ritual
The theory and practice of real magic is thoroughly explored in this volume which establishes the relationship between magic and invocation. It conveys exact formulations and explains methods for the invocation of higher entities of use to us in our preparation for the Work. Information on the nature of higher presences is given as well as instructions for the formation of a functioning invocational chamber.
Two volumes, $350.00
Volume X
The Creation Story Verbatim
"Use my play, Creation Story Verbatim, and you will eventually invoke just about everything necessary, if not everything necessary...you will move out of the human sector of the labyrinth and expose yourself to everything that could teach you the Work, plus everything that is the Work."
E.J. Gold, "Talk of the Month," Issue #38, "The Simurgh."
This volume is a three-script set, with production notes and a recorded performance on audio cassette. It is a tool which enables you to use the play as intended for objective seance, calling down work data unavailable in any other form. Two actors or readers sense what it means to be the Lord and the Archangel Gabriel in eternal dialogue. Volume X may be ordered out of numerical sequence. It is especially recommended for couples or those prepared to work with invocation in a study circle formed to penetrate these ideas.
Single script, spiral bound $25.00; Complete set $100.00
