Source Material

The wisdom, after passing from lip to ear for several thousand years before fictitiously being originally written as "The Kybalion," then lost over the centuries, "The Kybalion" was essentially rewritten in 1908 by an American new-thought and occultist author named William Walker Atkinson, penned as Three Initiates. The principles described are attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, the mythical reincarnation of the ancient Egyptian god Thoth, venerated as three times greater than the Greek god Hermes, contemporary of Abraham, founder of astrology, and discoverer of alchemy (the psychological art of turning thoughts and emotions into spiritual gold).

Just as the word "occult" accurately means hidden, referring to esoteric spiritual knowledge, so to does the word "hermetic" mean hidden, referring to the protective containment of such higher wisdom from persecution, abuse, and dogma. "The lips of wisdom are closed except to the ears of understanding." Likewise, "When the ears of the student are ready to hear, then cometh the lips to fill them with wisdom" The Kybalion. These principles are the master keys to unlocking the Universe's secrets and many occult teachings.

These principles were first written down by the scribes of Alexander when the Greeks conquered Egypt in 332 BCE. Over a thousand years later, those writings resurfaced in the late Medieval and early Renaissance periods throughout Europe and the Middle East. They became the source material of gnostic works called "The Corpus Hermeticum" and "The Emerald Tablet of Hermes, " which, though more poetically abstract, were said to have inspired the creation of "The Kybalion.

The Principle of Correspondence.
As above, so below. As below, so above. As within, so without. As without, so within.

This principle refers to the relationship between the macrocosm, the very large or totality, and the microcosm, the very small or individual persons or units that comprise the whole. The Universe is both fractal and holographic, as each part reflects the whole and is self-similar across all scales. This universal mirroring holds true for our literal physical reality and each individual's perceptions and psychological reality.

The Universe is both Fractal (the same pattern of wholeness is found at various scales of physical objects and natural phenomena and in all scales from micro to the macrocosm as we each inhabit a unique fractal point perspective of the whole, continuously zooming in to create the illusion of space and time) and Holographic (the wholeness of the Universe is present everywhere and within every entity, existing simultaneously as nontangible waves of potential and also as physical particle matter, emerging from the Unified Field and decoded by the minds of each observer, the individual units of consciousness which comprise it)

For example, the Fibonacci Sequence (Masculine Golden Ratio/ Feminine Golden Spiral). Interconnectedness and harmony are found in nature and the Universe (the Universe is an interconnected collection of repeating patterns), psychologically (mentally/emotionally) with the experiences one attracts or repels, and physically with galaxy clusters and individual galaxies, human cells, and entire humans, etc. All is in The All, and The All is in all (Information of a space region is encoded within its boundary), as the inherent order and beauty of all creation. As the spiral expands, it represents the unfolding of life's journey and the constant expansion, growth, and change of consciousness. A few physical examples of this fractal sequence include solar systems compared to atoms, the Universe's formation compared to neurons, the Helix nebula compared to a human eye, and Fibonacci sequence patterns throughout creation.

Human existence has three planes: mental, emotional (spiritual), and physical. If one changes something on one plane of existence, it will have a corresponding effect on the others. All physical matter only exists as 0.000001% of reality (the outer world), whereas the spiritual (emotional) and mental planes constitute 99.999999% of reality, which is empty space/energy (the inner world). Emotion is energy in motion. The mental plane of thought and the spiritual plane of emotions/feelings can be summed up with the old adage: "Where focus goes, energy flows, and what you focus on grows." Reality first exists as intangible waves of probability before manifesting as "solid" physical matter.

It is imperative to maintain a healthy mental diet, including less negative and more positive influences concerning all forms of media and peer groups, keeping clean and organized physical spaces, feeling good or at least feeling better NOW, and using various shadow work and letting go techniques. Shadow work and letting go techniques clear out the energetic muck that keeps one anchored to lower frequencies. Breathwork can also be incredibly helpful in aiding shadow work and self-inquiry. The physical plane is essentially frozen imagination, and manifestations take much more time and effort to show up using only such brute force. Though just as you can positively affect the physical world with elevated thoughts and emotions, you can also affect the psychological world with uplifting techniques such as working out, singing and dancing, polar plunges and ice baths, massage, breathwork, ho'oponopono and letting go techniques, etc.

The Mirror Principle, an intricate part of the Law of Correspondence, states that the outer world follows the inner world. We are each at the center of our own Universe (you-niverse), coinciding with each other in a multiversal web, and each as a refractive point of reflection of the whole. Our perceptions manifest our reality through our core subconscious beliefs and most dominant thoughts and emotions. You must first change your inner world, and then your outer world will follow. What we directly experience on an individual level is primarily a reflection of how we feel about ourselves, how we treat ourselves, and how we think about and treat others. We attract into our lives the people and situations that we are an energetic match to by our subconscious beliefs, the thoughts and emotions we are most focused on, and our subsequent actions or inactions that follow. All things contain everything, and there is a mirrored relationship between each person and the cosmos and everything within it. With enough time, the more one can maintain a high state of vibration and momentum within one's inner world, the more the physical world will continuously elevate to higher manifestations as a result. Start by focusing on what you are grateful for, intentionally holding your attention using your ability of will, and the reality you experience will begin to change accordingly.

Jesus said, "If those who lead you say to you, 'See, the kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the kingdom is inside of you, and it is outside of you. When you come to know yourselves, then you will become known, and you will realize that it is you who are the sons of the living father. But if you will not know yourselves, you dwell in poverty and it is you who are that poverty." ― The Lost Gospel of Thomas, Verse 3.
