Kabbalah: The Tree of Life
meditations on the pathways to paradise

The oldest, oral methods of teaching Kabbalah through inductive story telling involve the use of powerful imagery that has the depth and connection to make the spheres and paths of the Tree of Life come to life in a non-rational, non-linear way. The images in this book offer a way of making connections using the imagination and the will to take the reader beyond separation and towards Oneness.
Meditation on the spheres ands paths of the Tree of Life gives you access to different levels of consciousness and the colour illustrations in this book intend to support this process. Finding your own ways into and out of these worlds is most effective and there are a few suggestions in the notes at the back of this book to help you connect with the Kabbalistic Medicine Wheel.
Quotes from some early reviews:
The most amazing book on the Kabbalah! You must be so proud of it - it is truly wonderful! MR
This is a book to use and enjoy, and one to have close by when meditating or in need a refreshing break. Step into these images and enter your own imaginal world. You will be enriched and rewarded by doing so. JH
Very precious - I love these mandalas - I need to go deeper into all of them, and that will take me some while! What a treat, a feast to my eyes, mind and soul. HY
What a great looking book. My initial flick through shows that it is pretty, mouth watering, sumptuous stuff - a deep meditation on the Tree, a series of eye-kissing visual poems, all held in a deep and beautiful structure - really wonderful. KH
Lovely book, excellent - the pictures are user friendly to anyone who 'sees' whether they have kabbalistic experience or not. BB
Your book is such a work of art, but the 'vibes' from it are really something special. MR
I really enjoyed your new book and return to it when I need a dip into something imaginative. I'd love to know how you did those hidden images - they're really tricksy and fascinating. KI

The Something and Nothing of
DEATH
PS Avalon, 2008
ISBN: 978-0-9552786-4-8
£10.00 (10% discount £9.00)
Death is ever present throughout life and the more we learn to face this fact the more death becomes a friend and ally,
a wise advisor who encourages us to live life more fully. To make a relationship with death is
to make a commitment to self-evolution and growth.
To face death confers inner strength for it brings us more authentically into the moment,
into the fullness of our lives; in other words, it brings us closer to freedom. Living wisely is to
prepare for dying well, not for some promise of what will happen after death but because living wisely brings its own merit.

An extract from
The Something and Nothing of Death
Will provides many perspectives from which to see the 'something' or the 'nothing' - coming back always to the spirit of honest inquiry, and what might be called a lively acceptance of something we cannot evade. We are not beseiged by any kind of party line, and yet Will doesn't flinch from laying out given modes of thought and belief. The additional exercises for reflection are a bonus and take us deeper into our own personal explorations. (Barbara Brown. Author of 'Qi Gong' and 'Looking for Doris')
As a hospice volunteer for 20 years in Northern California, I have read many books on death and dying. I really appreciated the freshness of this book; not only is it full of interesting information on the subject, but it also contains many experiential exercices for coming to terms with Life's innevitable losses. I also enjoyed Mr Parfitt's very British sense of humour on this challenging topic! (Lynn Davis)
Psychosynthesis
The Elements and Beyond
PS Avalon,
NEW REVISED EDITION 2006
ISBN: 978-0-9552786-0-0
£13.00 (20% discount £10.40)
Psychosynthesis is a practical system that integrates principles and techniques
from many approaches to personal and spiritual growth. It is not about the
application of techniques, however, but learning to live with a vision that
comes from deep within oneself and how to bring this vision into everyday
life in a meaningful way.
This new, revised edition of Psychosynthesis: The Elements and Beyond takes
the reader into deep explorations of the psychospiritual and transpersonal
realms in a practical way and reveals Psychosynthesis as the psychology
of choice for now. The relevance of Psychosynthesis is emphasised not just
for the individual but also for the larger world in which we live.

Psychosynthesis into a communicable, palatable form."(Alexis du Pont de
Bie, American Board of Master Educators)
"A splendid book and well written. Mr Parfitt has made some of Assagioli's
work much more understandable and simple than Assagioli himself." (Edith

Through Walls is an exercise book, an inspirational reference and a guidebook
to the discovery of the Self. It reaches the root of one's being." (Amazon

walls!"(Foresight)
