The Kybalion: Hermetic Philosophy is a 1908 book claiming to be the essence of the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus, published anonymously under the pseudonym of “the Three Initiates”. In this book we learn that everything flows according to seven principles:

Principle of Mentalism: “All is Mind“

Principle of Correspondence: There is always a correspondence between the laws of phenomena of the various “planes” of being and life. ”As above, so below; as below, so above“

Principle of Vibration: This principle explains that the differences between different manifestations of Matter, Energy, Mind, and even Spirit, are the result of only different “vibrations”.

Principle of Polarity: Everything “is” and “isn’t” at the same time, all truths are but half truths and every truth is half false, there are two sides to everything, opposites are identical in nature, yet different in degree, extremes meet, and all paradoxes may be reconciled.

Principle of Rhythm: In everything there is manifested a measured motion, a to and fro, a flow and inflow, a swing backward and forward, a pendulum-like movement.
