Hermes Trismegistus

"That which is Below corresponds to that which is Above,

and that which is Above corresponds to that which is Below,

to accomplish the miracle of the One Thing".

O son, how many bodies we have to pass through,

how many bands of demons,

through how many series of repetitions and cycles of the stars,

before we hasten to the One alone?

Hermes Trismegistus
