The Book of Wisdom

The first of the Revival of Wisdom volumes announces itself as a reservoir of esotericism, occultism, symbolism and above all syncretism, the method its author uses to fuse every field of knowledge into one holy science. Its governing claim is that all things originate in the One, that mind is the substance of the universe, and that the reader's left-hemisphere schooling must be undone before reality can be seen whole. From there the book decodes: element read as el, god, plus ment, mind; the sigil of Lucifer laid over the visual field of the human eye; Walter Russell's light-wave universe in which low-vibrating light becomes matter; the story of Jesus reread as the journey of the sacred oil, the claustrum's secretion charged by the pineal and pituitary and raised by the kundalini through the thirty-three vertebrae. The seven Elohim are identified with the seven planets, the hue of human is traced to color and frequency, and the microcosm is set against the macrocosm on nearly every page. Dense with diagrams and capitalized declarations, it is a representative and widely circulated specimen of the modern syncretic current, written for readers who want the correspondences spelled out.
