Salutations to all.I would firstly like to thank Ashnook who allowed me to start this discussion in this forum.I really appreciate it.

i am currently in the process of translating many old(500 - 800 years) texts on tantra and eastern magick and even older ones which have been written in palm leaf manuscripts. i have had the good fortune of seeing them while travelling and getting to know many gurus throughout the himalaya region and the surrounding temples and monastries.Though some did not allow me to see all of their private collections,most of them were gracious enough and allowed me to.i am quite astonished at the amount of magickal work that there has been in these material such as the various summoning methods,invocations evokations,sigils,the proper way to make talismans,how to summon ancient spirits into physical presence and much more.

i am looking to compile all the best information in these texts and manuscripts and write out a fully layed Grimoire,a magickal book of working on ancient eastern tantrik and hindu magick.But there is so much information that i do not know for sure what readers would really like to see in a good grimoire.therefore i would appreciate it if you young ones could give me suggestions and advice on what you look for in a good grimoire and what you would like to be included in a grimoire,and what in your opinion is the most important parts that have to be included in it.thank you in advance.

With the amount of material it seems that you have collected from your travels, perhaps it would be best served by taking one concept at a time per chapter and use that as a foundation before the grimoire jumps right into the 'how to' art. There should be some anecdotal materials as well and any comments the owners of said books bestowed unto you while discussing their favorite technique or working. Then maybe a quick lesson on the types of NPE's (Non-Physical Entities) these practitioners deal with, how they deal with them, and so on. I know there is a world of difference in both attitude as well as protocols and methods that they use than what Westerners use. I could easily see this book idea outgrowing one cover and becoming a series of books which may be better suited to this difficult topic.

Like the others, I too am delighted to hear it's forthcoming and am anxiously awaiting the opportunity to buy a copy. Eastern Evocations are difficult to find and rare when you can find a practitioner talk about it.

All the Best,
