“To denote education, they draw the heavens dropping dew, thus they show that like the falling dew which is spent on all the plants and softens them, insofar as it is in their nature to be softened, though some remain hard from their inner nature, it is impossible to accomplish the same things with all. So, among men, education is common to all; but the well-endowed man drinks it up like dew, but the poorly endowed cannot absorb it.”

The Hieroglyphics of Horapollo
Nothing comes from nothing. Manly Hall’s vision for The All-Seeing Eye was entirely supported by contributions from its readers who paid for their subscription with gifts made according to their means. ​Manly Hall wrote:
“This magazine is published and distributed privately to those who make possible with their financial support its publication. The magazine cannot be bought and has no fixed value. Like all of the ancient teachings which it seeks to promulgate, it has no comparative value, but the students must support it for its own intrinsic merit.”

Welcome to the July issue of The New Journal of the Philosophical Research Society.

The word “hermetic” is derived from the name “Hermes Trismegistus,” the thrice great Hermes—the legendary author of mystical and alchemical texts. In the early Renaissance, newly-discovered texts attributed to Hermes were thought to have been among the precursors to the Christian gospels. His name has entered the English language to mean secret, or inaccessible—a hermetically sealed container is one that cannot be penetrated by air or water, suggesting that its contents are protected from defilement. 
​
Hermes Trismegistus was probably named for the Greek god Hermes, known for mediating between the mortal and heavenly worlds, lending an air of divinity to these metaphysical secrets. Hermes was the messenger of the gods, able to travel between the divine and mundane worlds; consequently, he became the representative of transcendent mystical experiences and the secrets of initiation. Hermetic philosophy can only be understood by joining him on the journey between the worlds.

The Philosophical Research Society is Hermes’ companion – its mission is to help seekers find the light of truth in the teachings of all ages. Explore the mysteries with us.
