Everything that exists is based on seven great, simple principles. They are the essence of the teachings of the Kybalion, a mysterious work that refers to a great sage of ancient Egypt, the legendary Hermes Trismegistus. Excerpts from this work were first published in writing in 1908, but the language of the nineteenth century is only accessible to a few. Doreen Virtue has taken on the balancing act of staying true to the work with its partly ancient aphorisms while simultaneously translating it into a language more suitable for modern spirituality. For the spiritually experienced, these principles are fundamentally not new – yet the clear formulations and explanations can provide seekers with inspiration, reminders, and enlightenment at any point on their journey.
