00:00:01.506 --> 00:00:22.370
Dear human being, beloved soul, I welcome you to my podcast series, Conversations with the Universe.
00:00:23.693 --> 00:00:28.818
After a near-death experience, my perception of our human existence changed profoundly.
00:00:28.838 --> 00:00:30.861
I became more sensitive.
00:00:30.882 --> 00:00:31.262
I became more aware.
00:00:31.713 --> 00:00:33.176
with all our known senses.
00:00:34.198 --> 00:00:41.110
I feel more intensely, see people with different eyes, and often take a different perspective on life and our challenges.
00:00:41.131 --> 00:00:56.298
In my books, I share these altered perspectives and all the knowledge that has flowed through me since my near death and thus record it, for all those who are searching for something more, for the meaning of our existence here on Mother Earth.
00:00:57.345 --> 00:01:02.575
And it is now a great pleasure for me to share this knowledge with you in this way as a supplement to my books.
00:01:04.156 --> 00:01:09.626
This season I'm dedicating myself to my very first work, The Basics of Being.
00:01:11.228 --> 00:01:13.373
I wish you many wonderful insights on your path.
00:01:14.754 --> 00:01:15.176
Thank you.
00:01:16.518 --> 00:01:16.778
Love.
00:01:17.420 --> 00:01:21.046
First, a quick note about my network, SPINE.
00:01:21.746 --> 00:01:23.629
This is short for the Spiritual Network.
00:01:23.873 --> 00:01:32.751
and is the first global social media network for holistic knowledge, awareness, spirituality and above all, a bridge between providers and seekers.
00:01:33.471 --> 00:01:35.715
I invite you to join us and connect with me there.
00:01:36.417 --> 00:01:43.891
Feel free to look around, find lots of podcasts, events, healers, but above all, lots of inspiration to grow.
00:01:44.712 --> 00:01:45.174
It's free.
00:01:46.337 --> 00:01:48.481
But now, let's start with today's episode.
00:01:49.082 --> 00:01:56.435
Before we talk about the seven Hermetic principles from the Kybalion, it is worth taking a look at the mystical origins of this teaching.
00:01:57.195 --> 00:02:04.468
It is deeply connected to a mysterious figure, Hermes Trismegistus, also known as Hermes the Thrice Great.
00:02:05.390 --> 00:02:12.282
Hermes Trismegistus is a mythical figure who combines the Egyptian god Thoth and the Greek god Hermes.
00:02:12.705 --> 00:02:18.481
In ancient Egypt, Thoth was considered the god of wisdom, magic, writing and science.
00:02:19.424 --> 00:02:22.552
In Greek mythology, Hermes was the messenger of the gods.
00:02:23.169 --> 00:02:24.752
the mediator between the worlds.
00:02:25.473 --> 00:02:35.770
Hermes Trismegistus is seen in esoteric and spiritual circles as an enlightened being, a master who received and passed on profound knowledge about the laws of the universe.
00:02:36.670 --> 00:02:42.961
It is said that he preserved this knowledge in the form of secret writings, including the famous Emerald Tablets.
00:02:43.681 --> 00:02:48.812
The Emerald Tablets are considered one of the oldest surviving spiritual documents of mankind.
00:02:49.593 --> 00:02:53.462
Their content is enigmatic, symbolic, and of tremendous depth.
00:02:54.123 --> 00:03:04.264
They contain statements such as, That which is below is like that which is above, and that which is above is like that which is below, to accomplish the wonders of the One.
00:03:04.961 --> 00:03:11.814
This famous sentence later became one of the basic principles of Hermetic philosophy, the principle of correspondence.
00:03:12.697 --> 00:03:15.703
The origins of the emerald tablets are shrouded in mystery.
00:03:16.383 --> 00:03:18.027
Some date them to ancient Egypt.
00:03:18.528 --> 00:03:22.997
Others see them as remnants of an even older civilization, perhaps Atlantis.
00:03:23.586 --> 00:03:31.377
There are no original tablets that can be viewed today, only copies and translations from Arabic and Latin sources from the Middle Ages.
00:03:32.198 --> 00:03:34.641
But their spiritual impact was enormous.
00:03:35.543 --> 00:03:42.492
Alchemists, mystics, philosophers, and spiritual teachers throughout the centuries have referred to these texts.
00:03:43.105 --> 00:03:50.599
They were not understood as external dogmas, but as inner keys to understanding the self and the nature of the cosmos.
00:03:51.481 --> 00:04:00.057
The Kybalion, which appeared anonymously at the beginning of the 20th century under the name the Three Initiates, is also based on this traditional wisdom.
00:04:00.578 --> 00:04:12.776
It is not a historical work in the classical sense, but a modern summary and interpretation of the hermetic teachings that were passed down for thousands of years only orally or in secret societies.
00:04:14.079 --> 00:04:21.430
The Kybalion condenses the ancient knowledge into seven principles that are considered to be the spiritual laws of the universe.
00:04:23.072 --> 00:04:23.613
Here they are.
00:04:25.016 --> 00:04:25.136
One.
00:04:26.218 --> 00:04:27.379
The law of mind.
00:04:28.281 --> 00:04:28.862
One is all.
00:04:29.346 --> 00:04:30.447
All is one.
00:04:31.228 --> 00:04:33.189
The laws are eternal and spiritual.
00:04:33.470 --> 00:04:34.992
They work through everything that is.
00:04:35.031 --> 00:04:37.973
The law of correspondence.
00:04:38.415 --> 00:04:39.776
As above, so below.
00:04:39.795 --> 00:04:41.418
As below, so above.
00:04:42.778 --> 00:04:43.119
Three.
00:04:44.540 --> 00:04:46.041
The law of vibration.
00:04:47.764 --> 00:04:48.704
Nothing is at rest.
00:04:49.165 --> 00:04:50.687
Everything is in constant motion.
00:04:52.007 --> 00:04:53.389
The law of polarity.
00:04:54.370 --> 00:04:55.752
Everything has two poles.
00:04:56.533 --> 00:04:57.874
Opposites are identical.
00:04:58.497 --> 00:04:59.680
The law of rhythm.
00:05:00.482 --> 00:05:02.045
There is a time for everything.
00:05:02.084 --> 00:05:03.348
Everything vibrates.
00:05:06.173 --> 00:05:07.797
The law of cause and effect.
00:05:09.220 --> 00:05:10.783
Every cause has an effect.
00:05:11.223 --> 00:05:12.607
Every effect has a cause.
00:05:14.190 --> 00:05:16.815
The law of gender.
00:05:18.158 --> 00:05:19.622
Gender is in everything.
00:05:19.970 --> 00:05:22.372
Everything has male and female principles.
00:05:22.853 --> 00:05:25.014
Gender reveals itself on all levels.
00:05:25.896 --> 00:05:34.406
Based on my own experiences and insights over the last few years, I would now like to correct, modernise and thereby complete these laws.
00:05:34.425 --> 00:05:36.367
1.
00:05:37.588 --> 00:05:38.889
The principle of mentality.
00:05:38.930 --> 00:05:40.913
The universe is spirit.
00:05:41.333 --> 00:05:42.673
The cosmos is spiritual.
00:05:43.334 --> 00:05:45.336
Everything is connected to everything else.
00:05:46.918 --> 00:05:47.158
2.
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:49.422
The principle of correspondence.
00:05:50.081 --> 00:05:51.543
As above, so below.
00:05:51.584 --> 00:05:53.547
As below, so above.
00:05:55.050 --> 00:05:55.350
Three.
00:05:56.531 --> 00:05:57.994
The principle of vibration.
00:05:59.255 --> 00:06:00.237
Nothing is at rest.
00:06:00.658 --> 00:06:02.240
Everything is in constant motion.
00:06:03.081 --> 00:06:06.206
Outward and inward are the two directions of these movements.
00:06:07.528 --> 00:06:07.809
Four.
00:06:08.370 --> 00:06:09.752
The principle of resonance.
00:06:10.894 --> 00:06:16.502
Resonances act and react in the form of causes and effects toward and with each other.
00:06:18.204 --> 00:06:18.584
Five.
00:06:19.841 --> 00:06:21.403
The principle of consciousness.
00:06:22.884 --> 00:06:24.026
Energy is consciousness.
00:06:25.327 --> 00:06:27.269
Consciousness shapes perception.
00:06:28.850 --> 00:06:30.572
Perception shapes attention.
00:06:31.374 --> 00:06:32.814
Attention shapes awareness.
00:06:33.596 --> 00:06:35.677
Awareness shapes conscious being.
00:06:36.579 --> 00:06:36.918
Six.
00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:39.201
The principle of purity.
00:06:40.182 --> 00:06:43.326
Impurity is the trigger for the growth of consciousness.
00:06:44.487 --> 00:06:44.846
Seven.
00:06:46.007 --> 00:06:47.569
The principle of transformation.
00:06:48.673 --> 00:06:59.223
The laws are eternal, the spirit is eternal but changeable, from state to state, from degree to degree, from situation to situation, from vibration to vibration.
00:07:00.485 --> 00:07:12.036
The laws of duality, such as polarity, gender and rhythm, are not universal laws, but only apply in gross matter up to the first energy world, but not beyond it.
00:07:13.317 --> 00:07:17.701
When the sun's energies reach the earth, something happens to everything that exists there.
00:07:18.338 --> 00:07:24.384
Plants react, for example, the Barbara branch, which begins to bloom exactly when these rays arrive.
00:07:25.305 --> 00:07:28.930
People experience an initial impulse that feels like love.
00:07:29.911 --> 00:07:36.237
But what actually happens through this cosmic, energetic impulse is that the heart opens in people.
00:07:36.999 --> 00:07:43.105
This causes them to become more aware of their connection to everything that is, and thus more loving.
00:07:43.874 --> 00:07:52.384
The incoming solar energies change our consciousness in such a way that we perceive an energy that had merely diminished in the months before.
00:07:53.805 --> 00:07:58.351
Some quantum physicists like to refer to this field as the unity consciousness.
00:07:59.052 --> 00:08:13.069
What they mean is precisely the connectedness that I am telling you about here, the rediscovered connection with the source, with the all-one, through the connection with your higher self, and thus the perception that everything works with and within each other.
00:08:13.793 --> 00:08:20.942
This allows us to recognize the unity of the all one again, and it is called unity consciousness.
00:08:21.963 --> 00:08:26.310
Back to the impulse from the sun, it came from it, i.e.
00:08:26.750 --> 00:08:30.836
in our perception from outside, but it causes something within us.
00:08:31.776 --> 00:08:34.000
Now we could think in all directions forever.
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:42.090
Who or what makes the sun give these impulses again and again on this exact date?
00:08:42.402 --> 00:08:44.565
Who is its impulse generator?
00:08:45.326 --> 00:08:52.235
If people influenced by such energies now make decisions with a different consciousness, what does that do to the world?
00:08:52.836 --> 00:08:53.616
To the people in it?
00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:57.783
Does it make them more peaceful or more desperate?
00:08:59.004 --> 00:09:01.528
And how different is the world with peaceful people?
00:09:02.229 --> 00:09:04.731
What would it be like with people who are full of aggression?
00:09:05.953 --> 00:09:09.038
The next step is to look at how we treat animals and plants.
00:09:09.697 --> 00:09:18.024
I think you can now see how important it is to realize that everything is always connected to everything else and works within this connectedness.
00:09:18.765 --> 00:09:24.630
Only those who understand this connection and its significance can truly comprehend the extent of separation.
00:09:25.392 --> 00:09:39.082
And since separation is the main cause of all chaos in this world, both within us and around us, it is very important to understand that in both small and large ways, connection is crucial for the further development of humanity.
00:09:39.663 --> 00:09:41.365
and therefore also crucial for you.
00:09:41.405 --> 00:09:46.230
Thank you for listening and I look forward to connecting with you at Spine.
00:09:46.690 --> 00:09:47.490

It's free.
00:01:46.337 --> 00:01:48.481

Hermes Trismegistus is seen in esoteric and spiritual circles as an enlightened being, a master who received and passed on profound knowledge about the laws of the universe.
00:02:36.670 --> 00:02:42.961

00:03:43.105 --> 00:03:50.599
They were not understood as external dogmas, but as inner keys to understanding the self and the nature of the cosmos.
00:03:51.481 --> 00:04:00.057
The Kybalion, which appeared anonymously at the beginning of the 20th century under the name the Three Initiates, is also based on this traditional wisdom.
00:04:00.578 --> 00:04:12.776

00:04:23.072 --> 00:04:23.613
Here they are.
00:04:25.016 --> 00:04:25.136
One.
00:04:26.218 --> 00:04:27.379
The law of mind.
00:04:28.281 --> 00:04:28.862
One is all.
00:04:29.346 --> 00:04:30.447
All is one.
00:04:31.228 --> 00:04:33.189
The laws are eternal and spiritual.
00:04:33.470 --> 00:04:34.992
They work through everything that is.
00:04:35.031 --> 00:04:37.973
The law of correspondence.
00:04:38.415 --> 00:04:39.776
As above, so below.
00:04:39.795 --> 00:04:41.418
As below, so above.
00:04:42.778 --> 00:04:43.119
Three.
00:04:44.540 --> 00:04:46.041
The law of vibration.
00:04:47.764 --> 00:04:48.704
Nothing is at rest.
00:04:49.165 --> 00:04:50.687
Everything is in constant motion.
00:04:52.007 --> 00:04:53.389
The law of polarity.
00:04:54.370 --> 00:04:55.752
Everything has two poles.
00:04:56.533 --> 00:04:57.874
Opposites are identical.
00:04:58.497 --> 00:04:59.680
The law of rhythm.
00:05:00.482 --> 00:05:02.045
There is a time for everything.
00:05:02.084 --> 00:05:03.348
Everything vibrates.
00:05:06.173 --> 00:05:07.797
The law of cause and effect.
00:05:09.220 --> 00:05:10.783
Every cause has an effect.
00:05:11.223 --> 00:05:12.607
Every effect has a cause.
00:05:14.190 --> 00:05:16.815
The law of gender.
00:05:18.158 --> 00:05:19.622
Gender is in everything.
00:05:19.970 --> 00:05:22.372
Everything has male and female principles.
00:05:22.853 --> 00:05:25.014
Gender reveals itself on all levels.
00:05:25.896 --> 00:05:34.406
Based on my own experiences and insights over the last few years, I would now like to correct, modernise and thereby complete these laws.
00:05:34.425 --> 00:05:36.367
1.
00:05:37.588 --> 00:05:38.889
The principle of mentality.
00:05:38.930 --> 00:05:40.913
The universe is spirit.
00:05:41.333 --> 00:05:42.673
The cosmos is spiritual.
00:05:43.334 --> 00:05:45.336
Everything is connected to everything else.
00:05:46.918 --> 00:05:47.158
2.
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:49.422
The principle of correspondence.
00:05:50.081 --> 00:05:51.543
As above, so below.
00:05:51.584 --> 00:05:53.547
As below, so above.
00:05:55.050 --> 00:05:55.350
Three.
00:05:56.531 --> 00:05:57.994
The principle of vibration.
00:05:59.255 --> 00:06:00.237
Nothing is at rest.
00:06:00.658 --> 00:06:02.240
Everything is in constant motion.
00:06:03.081 --> 00:06:06.206
Outward and inward are the two directions of these movements.
00:06:07.528 --> 00:06:07.809
Four.
00:06:08.370 --> 00:06:09.752
The principle of resonance.
00:06:10.894 --> 00:06:16.502
Resonances act and react in the form of causes and effects toward and with each other.
00:06:18.204 --> 00:06:18.584
Five.
00:06:19.841 --> 00:06:21.403
The principle of consciousness.
00:06:22.884 --> 00:06:24.026
Energy is consciousness.
00:06:25.327 --> 00:06:27.269
Consciousness shapes perception.
00:06:28.850 --> 00:06:30.572
Perception shapes attention.
00:06:31.374 --> 00:06:32.814
Attention shapes awareness.
00:06:33.596 --> 00:06:35.677
Awareness shapes conscious being.
00:06:36.579 --> 00:06:36.918
Six.
00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:39.201
The principle of purity.
00:06:40.182 --> 00:06:43.326
Impurity is the trigger for the growth of consciousness.
00:06:44.487 --> 00:06:44.846
Seven.
00:06:46.007 --> 00:06:47.569
The principle of transformation.
00:06:48.673 --> 00:06:59.223
The laws are eternal, the spirit is eternal but changeable, from state to state, from degree to degree, from situation to situation, from vibration to vibration.
00:07:00.485 --> 00:07:12.036
The laws of duality, such as polarity, gender and rhythm, are not universal laws, but only apply in gross matter up to the first energy world, but not beyond it.
00:07:13.317 --> 00:07:17.701
When the sun's energies reach the earth, something happens to everything that exists there.
00:07:18.338 --> 00:07:24.384
Plants react, for example, the Barbara branch, which begins to bloom exactly when these rays arrive.
00:07:25.305 --> 00:07:28.930
People experience an initial impulse that feels like love.
00:07:29.911 --> 00:07:36.237
But what actually happens through this cosmic, energetic impulse is that the heart opens in people.
00:07:36.999 --> 00:07:43.105
This causes them to become more aware of their connection to everything that is, and thus more loving.
00:07:43.874 --> 00:07:52.384
The incoming solar energies change our consciousness in such a way that we perceive an energy that had merely diminished in the months before.
00:07:53.805 --> 00:07:58.351
Some quantum physicists like to refer to this field as the unity consciousness.
00:07:59.052 --> 00:08:13.069
What they mean is precisely the connectedness that I am telling you about here, the rediscovered connection with the source, with the all-one, through the connection with your higher self, and thus the perception that everything works with and within each other.
00:08:13.793 --> 00:08:20.942
This allows us to recognize the unity of the all one again, and it is called unity consciousness.
00:08:21.963 --> 00:08:26.310
Back to the impulse from the sun, it came from it, i.e.
00:08:26.750 --> 00:08:30.836
in our perception from outside, but it causes something within us.
00:08:31.776 --> 00:08:34.000
Now we could think in all directions forever.
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:42.090
Who or what makes the sun give these impulses again and again on this exact date?
00:08:42.402 --> 00:08:44.565
Who is its impulse generator?
00:08:45.326 --> 00:08:52.235
If people influenced by such energies now make decisions with a different consciousness, what does that do to the world?
00:08:52.836 --> 00:08:53.616
To the people in it?
00:08:54.879 --> 00:08:57.783
Does it make them more peaceful or more desperate?
00:08:59.004 --> 00:09:01.528
And how different is the world with peaceful people?
00:09:02.229 --> 00:09:04.731
What would it be like with people who are full of aggression?
00:09:05.953 --> 00:09:09.038
The next step is to look at how we treat animals and plants.
00:09:09.697 --> 00:09:18.024
I think you can now see how important it is to realize that everything is always connected to everything else and works within this connectedness.
00:09:18.765 --> 00:09:24.630
Only those who understand this connection and its significance can truly comprehend the extent of separation.
00:09:25.392 --> 00:09:39.082
And since separation is the main cause of all chaos in this world, both within us and around us, it is very important to understand that in both small and large ways, connection is crucial for the further development of humanity.
00:09:39.663 --> 00:09:41.365
and therefore also crucial for you.
00:09:41.405 --> 00:09:46.230
