Bravo. Thank you for sharing this. It is one of the cornerstones of the instruction that I give to all of my students. I had often mused with other Adepti of this school my curiousity about why we didn't see it mentioned in the reccomended reading list that we had recieved in our training.

I would also like to reccomend "The Kybalion"; which is the "Rosetta Stone" for deciphering the Emerald Tablest. The ET is, in its own right one of the most beautiful examples of prose in addition to its value as a guide to Magi. "The Kybalion" on the other hand is the best introduction to the Hermetic Principles and "how to" guide to the utilization of the Principles.

In the context of our School and its mission I think that the Sixth Tablet "The Key of Magic" should be inscribed upon the hearts and minds of every Adept. I have assisted in Adept Initiation Classes, and have as part of that instruction read the Key to the candidates. Many of them have subsequently informed me that they were grateful for being shown exactly how we as Adepti of the Light fit into the ancient struggle.

The following is a link to the Kybalion online:
