Lawyer, priest and author Joseph Azize presents a concise manual of how to spot a fraud, both within our own selves and among our friends, family, and those with whom we may have business dealings. He discusses the many behavioral manifestations of various types of fraudsters and lays bare their methods and styles, their many modus operandi. In this title, the reader will find how talk and chatter are used to persuade, how cleverly diverting blame buys trust, how baseless cynicism and resentment fuel our own vulnerabilities to fall victim to fraud. Sometimes serious, sometimes witty, but always with deep insight, this book is an invaluable aid to both spotting fraudulent behavior in others, but perhaps more importantly, recognizing our inner propensities to fool ourselves. Those readers who are also members of the Fourth Way community will recognize the many tips and suggestions given by Azize can be applied with acumen to their practice of self-observation.

John Lennon: Harmony Out of Pain was written for people who both love enough of John Lennon's music to care about its maker, and also feel that there is something deep at work within themselves, that there is something sublime to be learned about ourselves and the world. While many books have been written about Lennon, this is the first time someone has looked at Lennon from the inside. As Joseph Azize works through the various themes in the book, he arrives at an objective look at an extremely complicated man. As John Lennon found his way towards being a Normal Man certainly one who has had an impact on the entire world and extraordinary in that manner inside he struggled like anyone else with his demons and angels and fought the good fight, just as Jacob wrestled all through the night ending up with a broken hip and a promise. John Lennon also ended up scarred and wounded, but whole. While there are many books about John Lennon which are really just jingoism and gossip the dish and the dirt this book is about John Lennon in the light of the Gurdjieff Work. Although Lennon was probably not a student of G.I. Gurdjieff or his ideas, the course of his life until his untimely death is ripe with material for pondering his state of being during those times. Those readers who do not know anything about the Fourth Way Gurdjieff s path in life will be amply rewarded by reading this book, and those who take a serious interest in Mr. Lennon s work will also be amply rewarded by sharing the insights of the author who truly has a genuine and heartfelt love for Lennon s music.

Religion & Spirituality

This is the first examination of the fragments of the solar theology of the Phoenicians. Beginning from the Emperor Julian s fourth-century statement, that, in the opinion of the Phoenicians, "the sunlight which is sent forth everywhere is the immaculate action of pure mind itself," this book contends that there existed an authentic and ancient Phoenician solar theology, similar to that described by Julian, reaching back to the sixth or fifth century BCE. Such a theology is described in Damaskios quotation from Mochos, the Sidonian philosopher. A passage from Philo of Byblos, preserved in John Lydus, and referring to the noetic light, strengthens this argument. Phoenician funerary inscriptions are examined, together with relevant artistic evidence and some surviving accounts of Phoenician thought. Altogether, a portrait of Phoenician spiritual thought emerges: a native tradition not dependent upon Hellenic thought, but related to other Semitic cultures of the ancient Near East, and, of course, to Egypt. Many themes and motifs from ancient Phoenician religion are discussed, such as the phoenix bird (the Phoenician bird) which was associated with the concept of immortality, and the possibility that there was a Phoenician cult of Yhwh . The book abstracts seven ideas from the extant material as axial concepts. In light of this analysis, it can be seen that Phoenician religion possessed a unique organizing power in which the sun, the sun god, life, death, and humanity, were linked in a profound system, which seems to have been common amongst the Phoenician city states.
