Scholars have long provided bagpipes with a creation myth that stretches back to the ancient Near East, where they supposedly appear in the biblical Book of Daniel. It then has the Greeks playing them and Roman legions carrying them to the ends of the Empire. But Michael Peter Vereno's The Voice of the Wind calls this story into question. Using linguistic analysis, Vereno shows that the oldest 'evidence' is often dubious at best and demonstrates that supposed ancient stories of bagpipe origins- and sometimes even their names-were later scholarly creations to give them a respectable, ancient pedigree. His erudite examination calls into question many conclusions and settled 'facts' to reveal a more enlightening story of bagpipe origins. It redefines its field and represents a significant contribution to historical organology. Readers with an interest in modern bagpipes, the history of instruments, and the interpretation of ancient and more recent textual sources will all find something to engage them and complicate their beliefs.

Not infallible is this book, but to teach people to hear the Creators voice and to see the heavens in full consciousness, while still living on the earth and to know what awaits them after death. OAHSPE In the late 1800s mystics from around the world brought forth enlightened perspectives and sacred texts that have set the path for our modern mystical traditions, including the Theosophical Society, the Spiritualists movement, Rudolf Steiner and Anthroposophy, Christian Science and the Unity Church to name a few. OAHSPE was also written in the late 1800s, and it shares many of the same perspectives. EOIHS VOICE IN THE WIND illuminates the teachings of OAHSPE and the deeper meaning inherent in the original writings. It teaches us how to develop our higher consciousness, how to understand our interrelationship with the spiritual dimensions, how to deepen our relationship to the Creator and it explains the many phases of our journey into life after death. EOINS VOICE IN THE WIND presents universal wisdom that transcends contemporary perspectives, and it speaks of multidimensional realities co-existing with life on earth through an interactive hierarchy of angelic beings.
