Appendix One<br />
The Emerald Tablet<br />
Without lie, certain and most true:<br />
What is below is like what is above, and what is above is like what is below, to<br />
accomplish the miracle of the One thing.<br />
In truth, and without Lie, And just as all things have been from the one, so also<br />
they are born from this one thing by adaptation.<br />
Its father is the sun, its mother the moon. The wind has borne it, its nurse is the<br />
earth. This one thing is the father of all things in the universe.<br />
Its power is perfect, after it has been united with the earth.<br />
Separate earth from fire, the subtle from the dense, with gentle heat and much<br />
devotion.<br />
In great measure, it ascends from earth to heaven, descends again toward earth,<br />
and receives the force of the things above and below.<br />
Thus you will possess the glory of the world, all obscurity shall flee away from<br />
thee.<br />
This is the force of all force, it will overcome everything subtle, and penetrate<br />
everything solid.<br />
In this manner, the world was created, but the map of this road is hidden.<br />
For this reason I am called "Hiram Telat Machasot"- one in essence, but three in<br />
aspect. In this trinity is the wisdom of the whole world.<br />
And so I have been called: Hermes thrice greatest, having the three parts of the<br />
philosophy of the world.<br />
