HIS book contains in concise tabulated form a comparative view of all the symbols of the great
religions of the world; the perfect attributions of the Taro, so long kept secret by the Rosicrucians,
are now for the first time published; also the complete secret magical correspondences of the G
\
D
\
and R. R. et A. C. It forms, in short, a complete magical and philosophical dictionary; a key to all
religions and to all practical occult working.
For the first time Western and Qabalistic symbols have been harmonized with those of Hinduism,
Buddhism, Mohammedanism, Taoism, &c. By a glance at the Tables, anybody conversant with any one
system can understand perfectly all others.
The
Occult Review
says:
“Despite its cumbrous sub-title and high price per page, this work has only to come under the notice of the right people to
be sure of a ready sale. In its author’s words, it represents ‘an attempt to systematise alike the data of mysticism and the results
of comparative religion,’ and so far as any book can succeed in such an attempt, this book does succeed; that is to say, it
condenses in some sixty pages as much information as many an intelligent reader at the Museum has been able to collect in
years. The book proper consists of a Table of ‘Correspondences,’ and is, in fact, an attempt to reduce to a common
denominator the symbolism of as many religious and magical systems as the author is acquainted with. The denominator
chosen is necessarily a large one, as the author's object is to reconcile systems which divide all things into 3, 7, 10, 12, as the
case may be. Since our expression ‘common denominator' is used in a figurative and not in a strictly mathematical sense, the
task is less complex than appears at first sight, and the 32 Paths of the Sepher Yetzirah, or Book of Formation of the Qabalah,
provide a convenient scale. These 32 Paths are attributed by the Qabalists to the 10 Sephiroth, or Emanations of Deity, and to
the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet, which are again subdivided into 3 mother letters, 7 double letters, and 12 simple letters.
On this basis, that of the Qabalistic ‘Tree of Life,' as a certain arrangement of the Sephiroth and 22 remaining Paths connecting
them is termed, the author has constructed no less than 183 tables.
“The Qabalistic information is very full, and there are tables of Egyptian and Hindu deities, as well as of colours,
perfumes, plants, stones, and animals. The information concerning the tarot and geomancy exceeds that to be found in some
treatises devoted exclusively to those subjects. The author appears to be acquainted with Chinese, Arabic, and other classic
texts. Here your reviewer is unable to follow him, but his Hebrew does credit alike to him and to his printer. Among several
hundred words, mostly proper names, we found and marked a few misprints, but subsequently discovered each one of them in
a printed table of errata, which we had overlooked. When one remembers the misprints in ‘Agrippa’ and the fact that the
ordinary Hebrew compositor and reader is no more fitted for this task than a boy cognisant of no more than the shapes of the
Hebrew letters, one wonders how many proofs there were and what the printer’s bill was. A knowledge of the Hebrew
alphabet and the Qabalistic Tree of Life is all that is needed to lay open to the reader the enormous mass of information
contained in this book. The ‘Alphabet of Mysticism,’ as the author says—several alphabets we should prefer to say—is here.
Much that has been jealously and foolishly kept secret in the past is here, but though our author has secured for his work the
imprimatur
of some body with the mysterious title of the A
\
A
\
, and though he remains himself anonymous, he appears to be
no mystery-monger. Obviously he is widely read, but he makes no pretence that he has secrets to reveal. On the contrary, he
says, ‘an indicible arcanum is an arcanum which
cannot
be revealed.’ The writer of that sentence has learned at least one fact
not to be learned from books.
