Welcome to the first episode of a 7 part RealityBites Series featuring and exploring the 7 Hermetic Principles as told in The Kybalion - In The Kybalion, a book first published in 1908 by the “Three Initiates” the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus are conveyed in the study of hermetic philosophy.
In Hermetic thought, the movements of the planets are believed to have meaning beyond the laws of physics and actually hold metaphorical value as symbols in the mind of the All, or God, which have influence upon the Earth, but do not dictate our actions; wisdom is gained when we know what these influences are and how ...
What are the 7 Principles?
The principle of mentalism.
The principle of correspondence.
The principle of vibration.
The principle of polarity.
The principle of rhythm.
The principle of cause and effect.
The principle of gender.
My hope and intention with these series of podcasts is that you can become aware and familiar of how these principles show up in your own reality - and how you can best utilise, take advantage or co-create your experience in accordance with these universal laws.
This will require an awareness and willingness to observe when these principles show up and then take some time to be present and contemplate on them.
It’s my hope, that ultimately, you come to a realisation that you are not separate to anything, a unity consciousness approach, that we are all unique expressions of the universe having our own unique experience, that you are indeed the field and the knower of the field, which means what you want is also what the universe wants - and to create or manifest that which you want, when in alignment with your highest good or soul mission will be facilitated by recognising and implementing the 7 Hermetic principles.
In some ways, this is an expansion and deeper look into the “the secret” all the law of attraction - how we manifest and co-create our reality with the universe
These principles can considered as timeless and ancient wisdom that doesn’t belong to any one school of thought.
So, lets take a closer look into these laws that govern the universe and expand further on what they may offer…
Are there natural laws that govern the universe? What foundational principles has man utilised throughout the ages? Reality means: “the state of being real, true, enduring, valid, fixed, permanent , actual - The Kybalion
In the Kybalion a book first published in 1908 by the “Three Initiates” the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus are conveyed, the study of hermetic philosophy from Ancient Egypt and Greece.
He was father to occult wisdom, the founder of astrology , the discoverer of Alchemy.
The Egyptians named him Thoth, years later the people of Ancient Greece named him “Hermes, the god of wisdom”
Trisigisitus means “thrice great”… the greatest great.
We use the word hermetic today which means “sealed” or nothing can escape.
The Kybalion - the exact meaning and origin of this term has been lost .
What is Hermetic wisdom?
In Hermetic thought, the movements of the planets are believed to have meaning beyond the laws of physics and actually hold metaphorical value as symbols in the mind of the All, or God, which have influence upon the Earth, but do not dictate our actions; wisdom is gained when we know what these influences are and how ...
What are the 7 Principles?
Seven Hermetic principles
The principle of mentalism.
The principle of correspondence.
The principle of vibration.
The principle of polarity.
The principle of rhythm.
The principle of cause and effect.
The principle of gender.
The seven principles are the foundation of Hermeticism, a branch of spiritual philosophy dating back as far as the first century of AD.
They were outlined by the author Hermes Trismegistus.
His teachings went on to influence both Greek and Egyptian cultures.
In Greece he was called Hermes: In Egypt Thoth.
However the true origins are still obscure and true identity of Hermes Trismegistus.
The Seven principles were passed down over time and compiled in the book called The Kybalion, great source of wisdom that has stood the test of time.
The 7 principles of Hermeticism teach us how to use our minds to communicate with the Mental Universe.
Delving deeper into the seven principles and how to understand and incorporate them into life to empower and improve your life:
1. The Principle of Mentalism:
“The All is Mind; the Universe is Mental." —The Kybalion
This principle states that the universe is itself at a foundational level is a mental projection.
That all phenomena of life, matter and energy of the material universe are thoughts of an infinite and universal, living Mind.
Its like spirit, mind and spirit are the same according to the hermetic wisdom.
Its like manifestation, where your thoughts create reality.
It's believed that God is consciousness, or thought, and the universe is a manifestation of the mind of God or Source or Field
This Mental Universe, for the sake of experiment, could be explained as an infinite intelligence, intelligent field, and even the nature of consciousness itself.
“He who grasps the truth of the mental nature of the universe is well advanced on the path of mastery” - The Kybalion
“Use law against law; the higher against the lower; and by the art of alchemy , transmute that which is undesirable into that which is worthy, and thus triumph.”
