Secret Teachings of All Ages
Secret Teachings of All Ages | Manly P Hall
6 posts | 5 read | 2 reading | 6 to read
The Secret Teachings of All Ages is perhaps the most comprehensive and complete esoteric encyclopedia ever written. The sheer scope and ambition of this book are stunning. In this book Manly P. Hall has successfully distilled the essence of more arcane subjects than one would think possible. He covers Rosicrucianism and other secret societies, alchemy, cryptology, Kabbalah, Tarot, pyramids, the Zodiac, Pythagorean philosophy, Masonry, gemology, Nicholas Flammel, the identity of William Shakespeare, The Life and Teachings of Thoth Hermes Trismegistus, The Qabbalah, The Hiramic Legend, The Tree of the Sephiroth, and Mystic Christianity. There are more than 200 illustrations included here (and in the trade paperback edition) many of which have been omitted from other publisher's editions of this book. This is essential reading for anyone wishing to explore esoteric knowledge.

I‘m slowly coming out of “new parent hibernation”. We took a family trip to the bookstore, and this was my pick.

This book is apart of a duo. The other being called The Lectures on Ancient Philosophy (which I have not read yet).
Manly P Hall was a freemason who wrote a handful of books in his time, each steeped in occult symbolism and a historical belief system passed down through initates of the mysteries.

This book in particular is more of a dictionary than a book.

Late post for #septphotochallenge on #weirdbooks day! So many visitors to our Shoebox look at our shelves and ask two questions: "Why do you have so many books?" And "Why do you have THOSE books?" while pointing out some of our more eccentric or unfashionable schools of thought. We answer, "It's what we do. We read and know things."
