Publisher's summary

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.

horrible narrator

Would you listen to The Kybalion again? Why?

The narrator kept yawning during this book. Whatever he's being paid it's too much! Otherwise a lot of interesting stuff.

Excellent book of Wisdom, excellently produced

The Kybalion should be required reading for everyone, but it won't be. It is composed of 100 percent timeless Wisdom, and this audiobook is excellently produced.

Excellent

Very clear and so well written and narrated.
Incredible value of these teachings in a condensed opus.
It may take several lifetimes to fully consciously live all these laws. But I believe those are the laws indeed.

Simplified Hermetics

This is a book written for a different era and very different people, in a rather different culture from our own. For it's time, it's a bit of a hermetics for dummies. By today's standards, it's fairly dry and repetitive.

The narrator was clear, and did a fine job with what he had in front of him. In fact, the almost monotone reading fit very well with the material.

It's challenging to compare this book with the masterful performance art that we're familiar with in the 21st century. But if you want a quick rundown of basic Hermetic philosophy, this is likely as close to what was being practicedb over 100 years ago.

Such an awakening

This is a key needed for anyone on the path in self-searching. A detailed/ clear understanding of mind-metaphysics! Mitch Horowitz has a passionate delivery that can be felt while his tone of wisdom keeps the listener hooked!
