Hermetic ideas and the New Thought tradition

First published in 1908, *The Kybalion* presents a set of teachings it attributes to ancient Hermetic philosophy associated with Egypt and Greece. The source description places the book among influences on the early New Thought movement and notes that its axioms have similarities to those in the Book of Proverbs. Its authors, identified only as the “Three Initiates,” remain anonymous; the identity of the writers is a matter of longstanding speculation. Together, these details frame the book both as a presentation of spiritual principles and as a text with an uncertain authorship history.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers exploring Hermetic philosophy and spiritualism
  • Those interested in the history of the New Thought movement
  • Readers curious about anonymously authored spiritual texts

Book overview

The Kybalion was first published in 1908. Purportedly based upon ancient Hermeticism, its philosophies, in conjunction with others, have become founding pillars within the New Thought movement of the early 1910s. The book early on makes the claim that it makes its appearance in one's life when the time is appropriate and includes axioms and insights similar to those found in the Book of Proverbs. The "Three Initiates" who authored The Kybalion chose to remain anonymous. As a result, a great deal of speculation has been made about who actually wrote the book. The most common proposal is that The Kybalion was authored by William Walker Atkinson, either alone or with others, such as Paul Foster Case and Elias Gewurz.
