Publisher's Synopsis

The Divine Poimandres of Hermes Trismegistus is a book that contains a collection of ancient texts attributed to the legendary figure of Hermes Trismegistus. The book is believed to have been written in the early centuries AD and is considered to be one of the most important works of Hermetic philosophy. The texts contained in the book cover a wide range of topics, including the nature of the universe, the creation of the world, the nature of the human soul, and the path to spiritual enlightenment. The book is divided into several sections, each of which explores a different aspect of Hermetic philosophy. The first section, known as the Poimandres, is perhaps the most famous part of the book and describes a mystical encounter between Hermes and a divine being known as Poimandres. The text is written in a poetic and symbolic language that can be difficult to understand, but it is considered to be a profound and inspiring work of spiritual literature. Overall, The Divine Poimandres of Hermes Trismegistus is a fascinating and thought-provoking book that explores the mysteries of the universe and the human soul.THIS 24 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Hermetica Part 1: The Ancient Greek and Latin Writings Which Contain Religious or Philosophic Teachings Ascribed to Hermes Trismegistus, by Hermes Trismegistus.
