The Visits of the Queen of Sheba by Miguel Serrano

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Like all Serrano’s work this is not to be merely read once, but absorbed into the blood.

C.G. Jung and Hermann Hesse: A Book of Two Friendships by Miguel Serrano

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This book is indelibly etched on my soul. Every time I read it I learn something new about myself. The Aureate Chain, the Hermetic Circle, where only the right guests meet, is real and I am part of it.

One of Serrano’s central themes is whether the white man can accept the co-existence of light and shadow, yet without losing his individuality as the Hindu has.

The answer hinted at is a projection of his soul both inward and outward, creating the Total Man, whose role is to illuminate the darkness of the creator.

I explored this idea to some degree in my book ‘The Reveries of the Dreamking.’
