As an ex-fundamentalist, terrified by modern organized religion…

This is the closest thing I’ve found which resonates with my feelings on how the universe appears to function; from my perspective.
I don’t know that I’ll ever be capable of trusting organized religion after my experience growing up in a fundamentalist adjacent sect of Christianity… so much of what I went through was traumatically negative, and I’m really only starting to understand myself (at 33yo) and the impact being in that environment as a child has on the adult version of myself. Books like this have been an amazing coping mechanism as I navigate things like “belief vs understanding” and attempt to piece together an foundational identity which expresses a truer version of myself than I was allowed to be during my most formative years.
To those lost or questioning as I did, I think this book is an excellent starting place on your journey of true self discovery.

This is an excellent occult work, but the principles laid out here are a great aid to those who study the western esoteric tradition and Qabala.

I am but a mere student in life and wish to learn more, this has started me down the right path.
Absolutely essential.

This work, if not being so in and of itself, is a great part of the Master-key which will open the doors of whichever phenomena one claims an affinity toward. If one finds oneself in a place where this information can be not only welcomed, but also received, I wish you well on your journey into the Knowing!
