The Kojiki is a collection of myths concerning the origin of the four home islands of Japan, and the Kami. Along with the Nihon Shoki, the myths contained in the Kojiki are part of the inspiration behind Shinto practices and myths. O no Yasumaro (died August 15, 723) was a Japanese nobleman, bureaucrat, and chronicler. He is most famous for compiling and editing, with the assistance of Hieda no Are, the Kojiki, the oldest extant Japanese history. Empress Genmei (r. 707-721) charged Yasumaro with the duty of writing the Kojiki in 711 using the various clan chronicles and native myths. It was finished the following year in 712.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDimensions\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e0.12\" H x 9.02\" L x 5.98\" W, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003epaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace IPP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39976941584559,"sku":"9781479326723","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9558\/8015\/products\/678e7d65-7ba4-410a-98fd-51114b0a4373.jpg?v=1622829853"},{"product_id":"the-seven-valleys-revealed-bahaullah","title":"The Seven Valleys Revealed, Baha'U'Llah","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDescription\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn this mystical work, Bahá’u’lláh describes the stages of the soul’s journey to union with its Creator in terms of seven valleys—of search, love, knowledge, unity, contentment, wonderment, and ‘true poverty and absolute nothingness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDimensions\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e0.12\" H x 9.21\" L x 6.14\" W, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003epaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wentworth Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39977088712879,"sku":"9780526782840","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9558\/8015\/products\/b5377361-db6c-49bc-9ceb-77c60f414c54.jpg?v=1622832269"},{"product_id":"the-talmud-of-jerusalem-dagobert-d-runes","title":"The Talmud of Jerusalem, Dagobert Runes","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDescription\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis sacred book of Israel came to birth during the centuries following the fall of Jerusalem to the Roman Empire, when the people of Palestine were scattered to the four corners of the earth.

From Christianity to Islam to Hinduism and beyond, from the brush of Michelangelo to the pen of Dante, people across millennia have tried to explain and describe heaven in ways that are distinctive and analogous, unique and universal. In this engrossing cultural history of heaven, Catherine Wolff delves into how people and cultures have defined heaven over the centuries. She describes how different faiths and religions have framed it, how the sense of heaven has evolved, and how nonreligious influences have affected it, from the Enlightenment to the increasingly nonreligious views of heaven today.

Algunos nacen con estrella y otros estrellados. This dicho (saying) roughly translates to \"Some are born with a star, while others are born starry.\" It refers to the Mexican belief that good luck is a matter of fate, something you are born with or not. Mexicans attribute their good or bad luck to a greater force, to God's will, even to the stars in the sky. Being born with a star is a blessing. While some gain their luck through fate, Laura Davila believes even more in faith, virtue, and purpose. While there are some people who are born with a natural gift for magic, there are many others for whom life itself pushed them toward using magic. The best brujos and magical people are not those who necessarily started off in perfect circumstances but those who looked at magic as a skill to be mastered. Mexican Magic shares this knowledge and offers an overview of magic from across Mexico. Spells are the focus of Mexican Magic. The book features magical recipes, spells, tips, and advice for a wide variety of intentions, including love, lust, sex, good luck, money, protection, commerce, gambling, justice, pregnancy, travel, education, and more. Although the spells may be practiced by anyone, their flavor is Mexican, as they are deeply rooted in Mexican folk beliefs and magic. Davila also shares direction on how to be a magical person and live a magical life, with examples given from some influential Mexican historical and spiritual figures\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e224 pages, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.64\" H x 8.97\" L x 6.09\" W\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e paperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"weiser books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46524752232673,"sku":"9781578638321","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9558\/8015\/files\/mexicanmagic.gif?v=1749065514"}],"url":"https:\/\/pressshopatl.shop\/collections\/philosophies.oembed","provider":"Pressshopatl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
