Autor Sheer Zeden Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 sep 2025
• Explains the ritual process of the author’s multiple Sak Yant tattoos as well as other powerful magickal rituals and initiations he experienced
• Shares how his initiatory experiences with Thai Buddhist magicians helped him destroy his destructive former selves and discover profound healing for his mind and soul
Sharing his profound encounters with Thai magick during 4 separate pilgrimages to Thailand, writer and musician Sheer Zed details the intense personal initiations and rituals he experienced with the sect of Thai Buddhist magicians known as Ajarns.
The author describes powerful Thai magickal rituals such as the Gold Face Blessing, where the face is covered in gold leaf, and a Satuang ritual that crescendos with the release of 21 large catfish into the Ping River during a Wolf Moon. He explains in detail the ritual process of his multiple Sak Yant tattoos, including how receiving a magickal tiger tattoo spiritually transformed him into a tiger during the ritual. He shares his experience of an intense Serm Duang ritual bath as well as how he had a gold Takrut needle inserted into his arm, and a rare initiation to connect him directly with spirits.
Revealing the extreme personal losses and traumas that led to his spiritual transformation, Zed shares how his initiatory experiences with Thai Buddhist sorcerers helped him destroy his destructive former selves and discover profound healing for his mind and soul. Exploring chaos magick, pop culture, and esoteric Buddhism, the author also examines the artistic and occult influences that shaped him into a magickal practitioner, ranging from the underground electronic music scene and the work of the Beat Poets to the writings of Aleister Crowley and the Buddhist Anarchism of Gary Snyder.
