by Three Initiates
An online ebook edition of The Kybalion -- this book is a study of basic hermetic teachings that outline an ageless wisdom. In ancient times (and even today) these teachings were not understood by the lay person, but were readily understood by students, after the axioms and principles had been explained and exemplified by the Hermetic Initiates and Masters to their Neophytes. The Kybalion was originally written in the early 1900's and is now in the public domain. A priceless gem!
The Kybalion is available as an ePub ebook which can be read using devices such as the Sony eReader, the Barnes & Noble "nook," and some cell phones. Click here to download the ePub file.

"... all things [are] evolving from other things, and resolving into other things..." - The Kybalion
Therefore, change must apply to The Kybalion as well. While The Kybalion is a great little book, you gotta admit, its language is slowly becoming more outdated. A new publication has evolved that breathes fresh life into an age old philosophy...

The epilogue of the Summum book tells a very fascinating story about one man's research into The Kybalion and what he discovered. Check out the following link:

The authors of The Kybalion chose not to associate their names with the book, possibly because the principles and philosophy it outlines cannot be credited to any person. Were they self-proclaimed initiates or did someone or something initiate them? And if they were initiated, who or what did it and what was the initiation? As mysteries abound, explore the rest of the links on this page and see where they lead you.

History was made when the Seven Hermetic Principles went before the United States Supreme Court in November of 2008. The issue involved whether Summum, a spiritual organization that espouses the seven principles, could erect a monument of the principles next to a monument of the Ten Commandments in a city park. From the Alternative Religions Blog at About.com:
"If Paul Case were alive today, I wonder what he would make of the Supreme Court's decision to hear arguments from the town of Pleasant Grove, Utah, which is seeking to prevent a monument of the Seven Hermetic Aphorisms from being posted alongside its Ten Commandments."
On February 25, 2009, the Supreme Court of the United States handed down its decision. All nine justices voted unanimously against the monument of the Seven Principles. It just goes to show you that paradox will always be with us -- the highest law of the land was not able to recognize the highest laws of nature.

The Kybalion's chapter on the Divine Paradox mentions Herbert Spencer who was an English philosopher, prominent classical liberal political theorist, and sociological theorist of the Victorian era. Spencer developed an all-embracing conception of evolution as the progressive development of the physical world, biological organisms, the human mind, and human culture and societies. Books by him are available through the Kybalion Bookshop.
The Kybalion's chapter on Mental Gender also mentions Thomson J. Hudson who was a psychical researcher and is known for his three laws of psychic phenomena, first published in 1893. Dr. Hudson advanced theories of the objective and subjective mind. Books by him are available through the Kybalion Bookshop.
