Description: Boyd Rice. The Vessel of God: The Selected Grail Writings of Boyd Rice. Huánuco, Perú: Manus Sinistra Publishing, 2024. Hardcover cloth-bound edition. 377 pages. Limited to 250 copies.Condition: NewDescription from the publisher: The Vessel of God: The Selected Grail Writings of Boyd Rice is a pilgrimage through opposites to find a third path that unites and transcends them. With the Holy Grail and its mysteries as the central focus, the book explores much of the Western esoteric tradition with its winding origins, all narrated in the author's distinctive style.The contained essays delve into the influence of enigmatic figures such as the Watchers, Cain, Mary Magdalene, the Merovingians, Lucifer, Adam, Enoch, and the Virgin Mary, where the author unravels the complexities surrounding them and their impact on the pursuit of esoteric knowledge. A detailed examination is provided, backed by a wide variety of historical and mythological sources. The exploration extends to other figures such as the Egyptian and Greek gods, or closer ones like Viracocha or Quetzalcoatl, with references to ancient cultures in the Cradle of Civilization. The Vessel of God explores sacred books and the influence of apocryphal writings and Gnostic traditions in understanding biblical figures and historical events. It delves into the interpretation of texts like the Gospel of Thomas, which presents a doctrine different from that adopted by conventional Christianity, suggesting the possibility that these texts contain fragments of the true doctrine of Christ before being edited to fit institutional religious interests. The book suggests that these esoteric traditions offer an alternative perspective on the nature of divinity, humanity, and spiritual seeking, aiding us in a better understanding of ourselves. Originally published in 2004, the collection of writings gathered here received a warm reception in its initial release, and we bring it back to life in an expanded edition with much additional material, including previously unpublished minor articles, photos, and art.
