show moreIn the episode "As Above, So Below; As Below, So Above" from "The Kybalion," the great Second Hermetic Principle of Correspondence is explored in depth. This principle asserts a profound harmony and agreement between various planes of existence, reflecting the universal laws that govern all aspects of life and being. According to Hermetic Philosophy, the Universe can be divided into three major planes: the Physical Plane, the Mental Plane, and the Spiritual Plane. These divisions, though somewhat arbitrary, illustrate the different degrees of manifestation in the grand scale of Life.
The Physical Plane encompasses all that is material, from the most solid substances to the ethereal essence of energy. It includes the known states of matter—solid, liquid, and gas—as well as more subtle forms such as radiant matter and ethereal substance. Modern science, just beginning to grasp these higher forms of matter, aligns with Hermetic teachings that see matter as a form of energy vibrating at different frequencies.
The Mental Plane, divided into seven minor planes, covers the spectrum of living minds. This ranges from the simplest mineral mind, through the complex elemental and plant minds, to the animal and human minds. Each level signifies a higher degree of consciousness and mental activity, reflecting the principle that all is mind and life exists in varied states of mental evolution.
The Spiritual Plane is the highest, with beings possessing life, mind, and form that transcend human understanding. These beings, referred to as Angels, Archangels, and even gods, play crucial roles in the cosmic process, influencing evolution and progress. Hermetic teachings emphasize that even these high beings are creations of THE ALL, existing within the infinite mind and subject to universal laws.
The episode highlights the interconnectedness of all planes, governed by the Principle of Correspondence. This principle reveals that the laws and phenomena observed on one plane are mirrored in others, embodying the axiom "As Above, So Below; As Below, So Above." Through this lens, the Hermetic teachings provide a comprehensive framework for understanding the unity and diversity of the Universe, encouraging deeper contemplation of the intricate web of life and existence.
By recognizing the correspondence between planes, students of Hermeticism can better understand the underlying principles that unify all creation, leading to greater wisdom and spiritual insight. This exploration of the Principle of Correspondence sets the stage for further lessons on the other Hermetic Principles, each shedding more light on the profound nature of reality.
