The Kybalion

A Study of Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and Greece

By: The Three Intiates

Narrated by: Mitch Horowitz

He was the father of the occult, the founder of astrology, the discoverer of alchemy. He was Hermes Trismegistus, and as the scribe of the gods of ancient Egypt, he possessed all divine knowledge... which he passed on to humanity, though only those who have been tutored in its wonders can fully understand it.In this extraordinary 1912 book, three secret initiates to his teachings - who remain anonymous to this day - share their insight with all who seek to understand the mysterious underpinnings of the universe and our relationship with it.

An appreciation of Hermeticism, as the basis of all paranormal philosophies still studied today, is an absolute must for anyone fascinated by magic, the supernatural, and the wisdom of the ancients.

the universe in a nutshell

it pretty much explains the universe in a few pages which is pretty awesome. i can link it a lot to The Way of The Superior Man by David Deida when it speaks about polarity and gender and masculine and feminine poles. i LOVED the way it talked about colors and energy and vibrations. it will be a beneficial book depending on what your experiences are at the moment and at what stage of life you're in. at 20 years old i probably would have fallen asleep if this book was handed to me. now older i felt i could relate based on experience. i experienced a lot of "ahha!" moments. great book to refer back to. then it finished off by teaching the diff between the Me and the I and how to use like some sort of meditative practice to become more in touch with the self.

Life changing!

An amazing listen for those looking to expand on the thought of law of attraction, complete with examples of modern scientific discoveries that prove the workings of the universe and how it translates to our abilities to change our reality!

Transmutation

Information and a way of life that will empower the individual and help create a new paradigm for our time in this world and beyond.

I am amazed

I was curious about alchemy and transmutation I can't wait to read this again this time taking notes.

Best Book on Alchemy and The Hermetic Philosophy

While no secret is revealed whereby a student who is not under the auspices of the instruction of a true Alchemist this in no way diminishes its worth and value to the person interested in securing for their intellect trustworthy information on the topic. Over the years I have investigated the Hermetic Philosophy solely for the purpose of intellectual increase and variety of knowledge with which to better understand diverse concepts that may be proffered by others.

This book successfully removes the errors found in the wealth of the books on this subject that have been written. It divulges no secret but does present an initial high level exposition of the philosophy that everyone wishing to accurately investigate the topic whether they are a student with a teacher or on their own.

The book is well written and, I presume, comprehensible to the majority of readers. The information has been constructed in a manner that is easily conveyed to the reader/listener. It held my interest from beginning to end. I am the better for having digested this work in that it has not only corrected the incongruities I absorbed from earlier books on the subject that I had read, which, at the time, I held an uneasy feeling after completing previous books, but also inserted other pieces of the puzzle I was lacking on the subject.
