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.

Definitely just lay everything out, those that want to use it for material gain and evil ends rarely want to put any work forward, so that it the main obstacle that 99.9% of the evil ego-magicians from doing any harm to themselves or their community. I personally would devour a handbook on ancient tantra and hindu magick and I know of a small number that too would be very grateful for such a publication.

The best grimoires are ones that are practical and lay out how to work the system end to end. The grimoires that actually outline how things work are the ones that are enshrined in legend, like the Goetia and the Necronomicon, because these accomplish what they say they do. Only in occultism would you find such a cult for things that work and such an acceptance of things that don't (IMG:style_emoticons/default/13.gif)
