Hermes

Hermes was the Great Central Sun of occultism, whose rays have served to illumine the countless teachings which have been promulgated since his time. All the fundamental and basic teaching can be traced back to Hermes.

The all is mind; The Universe is mental. – The Kybalion
Nothing rest; everything moves; everything vibrates. – The Kybalion
Everything is dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; extremes meet; all truths are half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled. – The Kybalion
Everything flows, out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swings manifests in everything; the measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; rhythm compensates. – The Kybalion
Every Cause has its Effect; every Effect has its Cause; everything happens according to the law; Chance is a name for law not recognized; there are many planes of causation, but nothing escapes the Law. – The Kybalion
Gender is in everything; everything has its Masculine and Feminine Principles; Gender manifest on all the planes. – The Kybalion
Mind (as well as metals and elements) may be transmuted, from state to state; degree to degree; condition to condition; pole to pole; vibration to vibration. True Hermetic transmutation is a Mental Art. – The Kybalion
Under, and back of, the Universal of Time, Space and Change, is ever to be found the Substantial Reality – the Fundamental Truth – The Kybalion
The Universal is Mental – held in the Mind of the All – The Kybalion
The All creates in its Infinite Mind countless Universes, which exist for aeons of time – and yet, to the All, the creation and development, decline and death of a million Universes as the time of the twinkling of an eye – The Kybalion
The Infinite Mind of the All is the womb of Universes – The Kybalion
Within the Father-Mother Mind, mortal children are at home – The Kybalion
There is not one who is Fatherless, nor Motherless in the Universe – The Kybalion
