Another wonderful hermetic teaching. However, I wish translator omitted Greek and Latin writings. I had to translate them and it was so difficult and took a long time to complete the book. Still. It worth the time reading it. I love Hermes. I think he was a great prophet. I feel like I’m reading the original bible. How great is that? Pure knowledge. Translator did an excellent work in finding and using source that is authentically written by Hermes. Don’t say you read Hermetic teaching until you read these heavy volumes. I have read multiple books about Hermetic teaching. Most of them contain pick and choose small quote like books. These ones are the heavy foundation of Hermes teachings. Oh how I wish he was my teacher. I’m blessed to have read this volume and I have two more books to read. Highly recommended. You won’t be sorry if you love ancient philosophy.
