Description

We take great pleasure in presenting to the attention of students and investigators of the Secret Doctrines this little work based upon the world-old Hermetic Teachings. There has been so little written upon this subject, not withstanding the countless references to the Teachings in the many works upon occultism, that the many earnest searchers after the Arcane Truths will doubtless welcome the appearance of this present volume. The purpose of this work is not the enunciation of any special philosophy or doctrine, but rather is to give to the students a statement of the Truth that will serve to reconcile the many bits of occult knowledge that they may have acquired, but which are apparently opposed to each other and which often serve to discourage and disgust the beginner in the study.

Author

Three Initiates is the collective pen name under which The Kybalion appeared in 1908 — a compact study of Hermetic philosophy that became one of the most widely read occult texts of the modern era. Often linked to the New Thought writer William Walker Atkinson and to esoteric circles interested in Hermes Trismegistus, the book sets out seven principles of mentalism, correspondence, vibration, polarity, rhythm, cause and effect, and gender.
