The Kybalion - The Principle of Mentalism - Hermetic teachings, Gnostic wisdom, Occult knowledge "THE ALL IS MIND; The Universe is Mental."-The Kybalion. This Principle embodies the truth that "All is Mind." It explains that THE ALL (which is the Substantial Reality underlying all the outward manifestations and appearances which we know under the terms of "The Material Universe"; the "Phenomena of Life"; "Matter"; "Energy"; and, in short, all that is apparent to our material senses) is SPIRIT which in itself is UNKNOWABLE and UNDEFINABLE, but which may be considered and thought of as AN UNIVERSAL, INFINITE, LIVING MIND. It also explains that all the phenomenal world or universe is simply a Mental Creation of THE ALL, subject to the Laws of Created Things, and that the universe, as a whole, and in its parts or units, has its existence in the Mind of THE ALL, in which Mind we "live and move and have our being." This Principle, by establishing the Mental Nature of the Universe, easily explains all of the varied mental and psychic phenomena that occupy such a large portion of the public attention, and which, without such explanation, are non-understandable and defy scientific treatment. An understanding of this great Hermetic Principle of Mentalism enables the individual to readily grasp the laws of the Mental Universe, and to apply the same to his well-being and advancement. The Hermetic Student is enabled to apply intelligently the great Mental Laws, instead of using them in a haphazard manner. With the Master-Key in his possession, the student may unlock the many doors of the mental and psychic temple of knowledge, and enter the same freely and intelligently. This Principle explains the true nature of "Energy," "Power," and "Matter," and why and how all these are subordinate to the Mastery of Mind. One of the old Hermetic Masters wrote, long ages ago: "He who grasps the truth of the Mental Nature of the Universe is well advanced on The Path to Mastery." And these words are as true today as at the time they were first written. Without this Master-Key, Mastery is impossible, and the student knocks in vain at the many doors of The Temple.

The Rosicrucian Order - The Secret Society That Connects All Religions paccione .co.uk 3 Views • 5 months ago

Rosicrucianism, an intricate spiritual and cultural movement, traces its roots back to the early 17th century Europe and has evolved to manifest itself in various forms in contemporary times.

The movement draws its distinct character from an eclectic blend of esoteric wisdom, spanning elements of mysticism, alchemy, Christian Gnosticism, and an array of philosophical and spiritual teachings.

The origins of the Rosicrucian Order are steeped in mystery, traditionally linked to an enigmatic figure named Christian Rosenkreuz.

Rosicrucian teachings pivot around concepts of spiritual enlightenment, and inner wisdom, with the goal of unraveling the profound mysteries of existence.

Alchemy - Where to Begin - Introduction to the Summa Perfectionis (Sum of Perfection) Pseudo-Geber paccione .co.uk 2 Views • 5 months ago

Alchemy is one of the most difficult fields of study in Western Esotericism for a host of reasons: texts are often in ancient languages, practically encoded, full of arcane symbolism and obscure instructions. One of the most daunting tasks is even where to begin. There are thousands of alchemical texts spread over 1500 years - which is the best starting point if you want to study alchemy? In this episode of Esoterica, we argue that the Summa Perfectionis (c. 1310) is the best answer. We explore the question of the text's authorship, transmission, composition, alchemical theory of substance, change, and, of course, metallic transmutation.

The Emerald Tablet Of Hermes Trismegistus - EXPLAINED paccione .co.uk 3 Views • 5 months ago

The Emerald Tablet of Hermes Trismegistus is a profound artifact of wisdom, central to the Hermetic and Qabalistic teachings.

The teachings encoded within the Tablet are veiled in alchemical and astrological language, accessible only to those with the key to decipher its meanings.

One of the core teachings of the tablet lies in understanding the unity of the cosmos through the principle of "as above, so below," revealing the interconnectedness and mutual influence of the macrocosm and microcosm.

The Qabalistic symbolism within the Tablet explores the dynamics of creation, the essence of the divine mind, and the process of manifesting desires through the adaptation of the one mind.

The Emerald Tablet offers a guide to spiritual enlightenment and the realization of the profound unity of all existence, through a deep engagement with the mysteries of the universe as revealed through Qabalistic teachings.

Hermeticism and Ancient Astrology: The Corpus Hermeticum paccione .co.uk 7 Views • 5 months ago

A discussion about the ancient philosophy of Hermeticism and its relationship to Hellenistic astrology, with Sam Block and Chris Brennan.

Hermeticism is a religious, philosophical, and mystical movement that arose in Hellenistic Egypt around the first century, and is attributed to the teachings and practices of Hermes Trismegistus.

It represents a popular synthesis of a number of philosophical and religious trends that were popular during the Hellenistic period, including Stoicism, Platonism, native Egyptian religion, and astrology.

The majority of what is known about this philosophical or religious school survives in the Corpus Hermeticum and a handful of other writings from that time period.

During the course of the episode we talk about what is known about the Hermetic philosophical tradition, and how it relates to the technical tradition of astrology that arose during the same time period.

Sam is the author of a series on Hermeticism on his website, which I would recommend checking out for more information on this topic:

The Kybalion - The Principle of Gender - Hermetic teachings, Gnostic wisdom, occult knowledge paccione .co.uk 2 Views • 5 months ago

THE GNOSTIC TAROT is now available! An incredible journey of artistic chaos and keen design tools that has brought about a unique and fitting honoring of the Gnostic saga. We are taking a DIY approach through a small printing platform until time to expand to other venues. Basic or Deluxe versions available. https://www.makeplayingcards.com/sell/synkrasis
AND.... if you enjoy the art of the Gnostic Major Arcana, they are available to wear! Check out https://teepublic.sjv.io/75VLKY The Kybalion - The Principle of Gender Hermetic teachings, Gnostic wisdom, occult knowledge "Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles; Gender manifests on all planes. This Principle embodies the truth that there is GENDER manifested in everything--the Masculine and Feminine Principles ever at work. This is true not only of the Physical Plane, but of the Mental and even the Spiritual Planes. On the Physical Plane, the Principle manifests as SEX, on the higher planes it takes higher forms, but the Principle is ever the same. No creation, physical, mental or spiritual, is possible without this Principle. An understanding of its laws will throw light on many a subject that has perplexed the minds of men. The Principle of Gender works ever in the direction of generation, regeneration, and creation. Everything, and every person, contains the two Elements or Principles, or this great Principle, within it, him or her. Every Male thing has the Female Element also; every Female contains also the Male Principle. If you would understand the philosophy of Mental and Spiritual Creation, Generation, and Re-generation, you must understand and study this Hermetic Principle. It contains the solution of many mysteries of Life. We caution you that this Principle has no reference to the many base, pernicious and degrading lustful theories, teachings and practices, which are taught under fanciful titles, and which are a prostitution of the great natural principle of Gender. Such base revivals of the ancient infamous forms of Phallicism tend to ruin mind, body and soul, and the Hermetic Philosophy has ever sounded the warning note against these degraded teachings which tend toward lust, licentiousness, and perversion of Nature's principles. If you seek such teachings, you must go elsewhere for them--Hermeticism contains nothing for you along these lines. To the pure, all things are pure; to the base, all things are base.
