    At the same time it skillfully tells the forgotten story of Jung's relationship with the great Sufi scholar, Henry Corbin, and with Persian Sufi tradition.The strange reality of the Red Book, or "New Book" as Carl Jung called it, lies close to the heart of Catafalque. In meticulous detail Peter Kingsley uncovers its great secret, hidden in plain sight and still--as if by magic--unrecognized by all those who have been unable to understand this mysterious, incantatory text.But the hard truth of who Jung was and what he did is only a small part of what this book uncovers. It also exposes the full extent of that great river of esoteric tradition that stretches all the way back to the beginnings of our civilization. It unveils the surprising realities behind western philosophy, literature, poetry, prophecy--both ancient and modern.In short, Peter Kingsley shows us not only who Carl Jung was but who we in the West are as well. Much more than a brilliant spiritual biography, Catafalque holds the key to understanding why our western culture is dying. And, an incantatory text in its own right, it shows the way to discovering what we in these times of great crisis must do.

    By using this formula you’ll get rid of the confusion and discover the benefits of multiband compression. This isn’t another wishy-washy difficult to grasp book on mixing theory. I’m not in the camp of people who will tell you "It all depends." Well actually it does depend-- it depends on the situation. And there are only 2 situations a multiband compressor deals with: Transient Control and Volume Leveling on a per-frequency band basis. By identifying whether you need Transient Control or Volume Leveling you can then literally copy/paste any of my 17 techniques and get the sound you’re after. If you know anything about my mixing philosophy then you know that I’m always aiming for 70% of my instruments to blend together and 30% of my instruments to contrast against that blended backdrop. This allows me to achieve more vibrant levels of contrast and with that 70/30 split a mix becomes increasingly more spacious and clear. This is how we create depth. We like depth. Depth is in fact the exacted result of the formulaic processes I teach. In the end mixing is art and I want the act of doing art to feel simple for you. I already went through my phase of hating presets and it only slowed down my progress. Once I realized that presets are just tutorials, my skills improved geometrically. I’m telling you this because at every level of mixing my primary goal is to simplify the process with set and forget presets. Every skilled producer/engineer I’ve met does this to some degree. Whether we realize it or not habitual mix decisions are in fact presets. As my students have already discovered in "The 3-Space Reverb Framework" and "The Bus Compression Masterclass," some of the most difficult parts of mixing are actually very formulaic. This means they can be replicated and repeated for consistent results across many mediums. Now in this book I’m giving you everything you need to know about multiband compression before even using it. I’ve then gone step by step through each of the 17 ways we use multiband compression. This means I explain exactly how to do something as well as why it works. These 17 step by step techniques will blow you away with their simplicity and effectiveness. You’ll experience the types of actual results you’ve been needing to make those mental connections and reach the final tier of mixing. So buy your copy of Mastering Multi-Band Compression and you’ll never be overwhelmed by Multiband Compression again.

    The boy was Siddhattha, heir to the Sakya kingdom and the future Buddha; the girl was the beautiful and precocious Yasodhara, his friend who became his loving wife.In this exquisitely crafted narrative, we encounter Yasodhara as a fiercely independent, passionate and resilient individual. We witness her joys and sorrows, her expectations and frustrations, her fairy-tale wedding, and her overwhelming devastation at the departure of her beloved.It is through her eyes that we witness Siddhattha’s slow transformation, from a sheltered prince to a deeply sensitive young man. On the way, we see how the gods watch over the future Buddha from the clouds, how the king and his ministers try to keep the suffering of the world from him and how he eventually renounces the throne, his wife and newly-born son to seek enlightenment.Resurrecting a forgotten woman from the origin stories of the Buddha, Vanessa R.
