A true magician must not undertake anything regarding which he is not thoroughly informed.

Everything that can be found in the universe on a large scale is reflected in a human being on a small scale.

You will find that there is no death at all, in the true sense of the word, but everything goes on living, transmuting and becoming perfect according to primitive laws.

A true initiate will never force anyone who has not reached a certain level of maturity to accept his truth.

The highest condition takes rise in the lowest.
