MERCHANDISE

This is an agarwood from Hainan, China, which has a beautiful sweetness and clear, clean appearance. Since ancient times, it has been treated as one of the authentic medicinal materials in Hainan.

It is said that when agarwood trees in Southeast Asia, which belong to the agarwood family, are damaged by wind, rot, or insects, they secrete resin inside the damaged area to protect themselves, which results in agarwood. It takes several decades for agarwood to be produced, and it is extremely difficult to produce artificially because it is affected by natural conditions.
Most of the incense available in Japan today is made by mixing agarwood with Chinese medicines, spices, and sandalwood, but this incense is made using only agarwood. In the Heian period (794-1185), agarwood was popular as a scent, and from the Kamakura period (1185-1333) onward, samurai loved and prized agarwood for its calming effect to calm their spirits in preparation.
It is said that powerful people of the time were also keen to collect it. The delicate and gentle fragrance reminiscent of trees is modern in a sense, and can be used for meditation as well as by people of all ages. I hope you will find it useful.

The Greatest Enlightener of the 20th Century, Admired by Jung and Gandhi!
"Who am I? This is the first time that a person has been taught that consciousness is the only real truth.
"He taught that "consciousness is the only real truth.
The book is presented in a question-and-answer format that summarizes his perspective on various issues.

"When the mind is still, the whole world is still. The mind is the cause of everything.
When it is quieted, the original natural state will appear by itself."

The Ashtavakra Gita (Sanskrit: अष्टावक्रगीता; IAST: aṣṭāvakragītā) or Song of Ashtavakra is a classical text in the Advaita Vedanta tradition in the form of a dialogue between the sage Ashtavakra and Janaka, king of Mithila. -Wikipedia

This book is also called the modern Upanishads. This is the story of a great enlightened man who, without formal education, lived in a village on the outskirts of Bombay, running an ordinary grocery store, but met a guru and realized the True Self in just three years.
Since its first publication in 1973, the book has been highly praised and read as one of the most important scriptures of our time.
The first translation in Japan.

This book is the ultimate answer to Ramana Maharshi's question, "Who am I? This book is the ultimate answer to Ramana Maharshi's question, "Who am I?

I am.
I am, and because I am, everything is.
"There is no answer to the question, "Who am I? There is no answer to this question.
No experience can answer it.
No experience can answer it, because the Self is beyond experience.

User's Manual

Described as "one of the greatest musical achievements of the 20th century," The Well-Tuned Piano is the most important and revolutionary musical monument of La Monte Young's oeuvre. With the mysteries and traditions of the Orient, natural overtones, a Bösendorfer tuned to pure tuning over several weeks, and the ethereal lighting of Marian Zazeela, this is a unique opportunity to engage in the full scope of historical music that will probably never be performed again. A 52-page booklet is included to help you decipher this work, and although this is a large DVD (over 6 hours), the sound quality is good enough to be played as audio, even for those who have the Gramavision version. The link to the sound source is the Gramavision version.

Disques Ocora, a French label dedicated to capturing and publishing the sounds of folkloric culture from around the world, is held in the highest possible regard in the realms of professional and amateur ethnomusicology. Instigated in 1958 by Pierre Schaeffer, the founder of musique concrète, Disques Ocora's sterling reputation is largely built on composer and musicologist Charles Duvelle's pioneering field recordings, as well as his now-iconic photographs and graphic design. Charles Duvelle's work is indisputably one of the most important contributions to the human understanding of the rich biodiversity of our planet's music and language. In 1977, his field recordings from Benin were selected by Carl Sagan for inclusion on the Voyager Golden Records, which were carried into outer space by the Voyager spacecraft to stand as an example of humanity's highest musical expressions for the universe's unknown listeners. Sublime Frequencies' most ambitious project to date, this 296-page fine-art photography book comprises an exhaustive collection of Charles Duvelle's field photography from 1959 to 1978 (188 black-and-white and 58 color photographs), demonstrating that this master musicologist had an equally unerring eye for photography; Includes a photo index listing the details of each photograph. It also contains an exhaustive interview with Charles Duvelle by Hisham Mayet, detailing the history of the label and offering Duvelle's unique insights into the discipline of field recording (French and English facing text). The package includes two full-length CDs of archival recordings (some of which have never been published) selected, compiled, and fully annotated by Duvelle himself. Most of the tracks on CD one (Africa) are complete versions of truncated tracks from OOP Ocora LPs. CD two, which includes performances by Sohan Lal, Kheo Oudon, and Madurai Ramaswami Gautam, is focused on material from Asia (music from India and Laos), with two long tracks that have never been released (a third track is a complete unedited version). The material focuses on the five regions surveyed during his time with Ocora: West Africa, Central Africa, Indian Ocean, Pacific Islands, and SouthEast Asia. It includes "Disques Ocora / Charles Duvelle Discography, 1959-1974", a complete overview illustrated with 94 full-color album thumbnails, "The Prophet Collection, 1999-2004" a discography of Duvelle's post-Ocora label illustrated with 41 full-color album thumbnails, "Eastern Music in Black Africa", a 17-page report prepared by Charles Duvelle at the request of UNESCO (February 1970), and a review of the Ocora catalogues (1964-1973). In a tribute to Disques Ocora's exquisite design sensibility, the book is printed on 170 gsm Lumisilk matte art paper and bound in grey buckram with gold foil stamping on the cover and spine. The front cover includes a tipped-on glossy photograph by Charles Duvelle. Hardcover book; 10"x10"; 296 pages; 4.5 lbs. Produced and edited by Hisham Mayet.
