“When the pupil is ready to receive the truth, then will this little book come to him, or her. Such is The Law. ...The Law of Attraction, will bring lips and ear together - pupil and book in company. So mote it be!”

“We have the truth still with us. But it is not found in books, to any given extent. It has been passed along......from lip to ear. When it was written down at all, its meaning was veiled in terms of alchemy and astrology, so that only those possessing the key could read it aright.”

“Do not make the mistake of supposing that the little world you see around you - the Earth, which is a mere grain of dust in the Universe - is the Universe itself. There are millions upon millions of such worlds, and greater. And there are millions of millions of such Universes in existence within the Infinite Mind of THE ALL”

“Everything flows out and in; everything has its tides;
all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests

is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm
compensates”

MY COMMENT:
Since, apparently, most Renaissance philosophers considered this work so valuable they tried to get the Vatican to canonize it, some at the loss of their lives, I thought I would see if I could find it at the Amazon Kindle store. Lo and behold, I just bought a copy FOR 99 CENTS!!! Seems almost a crime that I could get it so cheap. I couldn't resist buying it.
