Thanks for sharing Cactus Man
Yeah the corpus hermeticum is fascinating, and in many ways parallels many of the common tenets of many of the other 'isms' that circulate. There's a few quotes that I love, I'll post some of the ones I'd saved from my pdf copy as I skim through.

Quote:Close your eyes and let the mind expand. Let no fear of death or darkness arrest its course. Allow the mind to merge with Mind. Let it flow out upon the great curve of consciousness. Let it soar on the wings of the great bird of duration, up to the very Circle of Eternity.
Quote:That which is below is like that which is above, and that which is above is like that which is below, to perform the miracles of one only thing.
Quote:Make, then, thyself to grow to the same stature as the Greatness which transcends all measure; leap forth from the body; transcend all Time; become Eternity
