"The Druids believed in books more ancient than the flood. They styled them the 'Books of Pheryllt' and the writings of Hu." - Ignatius Donnelly, Atlantis Where the Druids are concerned, hundreds of years of diverse academic and philosophical debate await the Seeker on their look back. It is now even more controversial to speak of the Pheryllt in neodruid circles - supposed rings of open minds that remain closed in reality. For two decades a modern movement of neodruids influenced by modern Pheryllt Druidism have become bystanders amidst the unbreakable schism. Alleged authorities on Druidry raise one hand screaming how these documents supporting an ancient Welsh Bardic Druid (and Pheryllt) tradition are a hoax, but with the other hand they borrow from these same sources for their own purposes. Many antiquated scholarly references to Books of Pheryllt and the Pheryllt themselves may be found by a diligent seeker - some of which are included or paraphrased within this very book. The authentic premise guiding the modern Pheryllt Druid tradition is the remaining works that do exist from the Welsh MS. Society and the continuing efforts of the National Welsh Eisteddfodd in preserving the Bardic tradition. In ancient Keltia, the Druid Order consisted of learned men, those educated in Bardic Arts: cosmology, native history, legendary history of heroes and spirituality, penal laws and punishments, geography, healing, botanical medicine, astronomy, astrology and magic. It is no wonder the Bard is viewed as transmitter or catalyst of awen, the essence, divine spark or spirit of inspiration that the Greeks termed gnosis. It is to the 'ebb and flow' of the 'awen field' that the poetic genius of Bards is attributed. "--So Ceridwen took to the crafts of the Book of Pheryllt to boil a cauldron of Awen." - from the 'Hanes Taliesen', Peniarth MS We have been given little in classical literature or even antiquarian druidism to satisfy hunger for Pheryllt (pronounced FAIR-ee-llt or VAIR-ult) research, and even less to support an indepth critique of their founder, a figure named Pharaon - translated by some scholars to mean 'higher powers'. Perhaps it is 'Druid Craft' to call down 'higher powers' to conjure inspiration and magic - perhaps that is what Ceridwen is doing in the famous reference above. In either case, it has spawned an entire branch of modern druid methodology and a natural universalist philosophy even if only in spirit.

A collection of archive and classic writings on the origins, development and revival of the druidic tradition. The text covers customs and practices, Celtic roots and modern interpretation.

[This Mardukite edition is now out-of-print in lieu of the forthcoming "Book of Pheryllt" anthology, collecting this three volume series in one book.]The much anticipated final volume of the Pheryllt Trilogy edited by Joshua Free.In ancient Keltia, the Druid Order consisted of learned ones, those educated in Bardic Arts: cosmology and spirituality, natural-native history and geology, legendary history of heroes and mythology, healing and botanical medicine, astrononmy and astronology, and of course 'magic' - all of which are hidden in lines of Bardic verse and the researches of those who study them. As primary preservers of Celtic and Druid Mysteries, it is no wonder that Bardic Druids were considered the transmitter or catalyst of -awen- the essence, Divine Spark or spirit of inspiration that the Greeks termed 'gnosis'. It is to the 'ebb and flow' of the -awen field- that the magical and poetic genius of the Bard is attributed. Many antiquated scholarly references to the "Books of Fferyllt" or the "Pheryllt" themselves may be found (included or paraphrased in the Book of Pheryllt trilogy series facsmile edited by Joshua Free). Whatever bits trickle down from classical literature and antiquarian druidism to satisfy a modern thirst for the 'pheryllt paradigm' have been collected together in one place - a sacred book once thirded and now made whole - forming a complete sourcebook trilogy of undefiled lore. Whatever name, guise, or title we might attribute to the 'Body of the Dragon' - and we have chosen PHERYLLT - this same lore (originally accessible to few) serves as basis for the majority of Celtic and neo-Druidic revival of the past few centuries; whether or not it has been given due credit as such. Where a thick scholarly aura accumulated from years of controversy may surround the 'authenticity' of some of these manuscripts, valid substitution shortages have bound the modern revival specifically to these available texts and the tradition gleaned from them.
