The Kybalion is the fundamental book on Hermetic Philosophy.

This book explains the nature of existence in Seven Principles according to Ancient Egyptian Philosophy. This information was kept hidden and passed down throughout the ages and contains the underlying principles of Truth found in all systems of thought.

This information can be applied to life in a practical or magical way.

This book was created based on the message inscribed on the Emerald Tablet of Thoth or “Hermes Trismigestus”. Thoth is said to be an Ascended Master who came back to Egypt to share the secrets of the Universe with Civilization.

Some of the most prominent thinkers and inventors credit the Emerald Tablet as the Secret to their achievements including Sir Isaac Newton, Madam Blavatsky, Fulcanelli and many more.

This mythological knowledge is the basis of Hermetic Law, explained by the Seven Hermetic axioms which describe by nature, the operating principles of existence.

These principles can be used to experience maximum fulfillment in life, make new discoveries and attain extraordinary goals. These are the secret principles on which our world operates and they can be applied in order to fulfill our deepest desires.

The Kybalion was written anonymously by the Three Initiates in the early 1900’s as a book to share the secrets of the Hermetic Order.

These initiates claim to be Masons of the highest degree although they never disclose their identities. Much speculation has gone into who the actual author(s) of the book were but regardless of who wrote it, this document serves to be the fundamental guide to the structure of reality as we know it.

The purpose of this translation it is to to modernize the ideas and present them in an easy to understand and complete way; while still using the ancient terms and many of the examples from the original work in a more concise and contemporary format.

“The Lips of Wisdom are Closed. Except to the Ears of Understanding.”
