Exposure of the Lie
I hate to be the one to crash the party, but some things must be said without sugarcoating.
The Kybalion is a work of fiction, and so are the “Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean.”
Do not let anyone tell you differently.
If we are ever going to advance as a civilization, truly advance, we have to stop living in the lie.
Too many are building their spiritual foundations on counterfeit documents that were engineered to mislead, package, and sell something that was once unbuyable.
====================
The Kybalion
1908, Chicago
Written by William Walker Atkinson, a businessman and prolific New Thought author, under the pseudonym “Three Initiates” a marketing ploy.
The Seven Principles?
Not found in any authentic Hermetic text.
They were created to be simple, marketable, and easily digestible for the spiritual consumer of the early 20th century.
===========================
The “Emerald Tablets of Thoth”
1939, Colorado
Authored by Maurice Doreal, leader of the Brotherhood of the White Temple.
These are not translations of anything ancient.
They are 20th century occult fiction, a blend of Atlantis myths, Theosophy, and invented pseudo archaic language.
The real Emerald Tablet (singular) is a short alchemical axiom from Arabic origins, translated into Latin in the 12th century, nothing about Atlantis, Amenti, or cosmic star travel.
The Control Function
Both of these modern works are spiritual containment devices, False Foundations, Convincing seekers the fabricated is ancient.
Closed Loop Thinking, Making people believe the “Seven Principles” are the whole teaching.
Authority by Mystery, Using fake authorship to project hidden mastery.
Energy Redirection, Replacing real transformative practice with passive reading and affirmation.
Why I Know
Many of you met me in The Ancient Order of the Hermetics group.
My presence there was no mistake.
I was meant to witness how these lies are repeated, who spreads them, and how deep the deception runs.
I saw real seekers mocked for questioning, and false teachers quoting false texts as gospel.
I also saw something far darker, the group’s admin, the very one presenting himself as a gatekeeper of wisdom, was nothing more than a fraud and a predator, using the banner of Hermeticism to control, manipulate, and feed off those who trusted him.
It is no coincidence that my exposing the Kybalion and the Doreal “Tablets” and calling out the admin for exactly what he is, was one of the primary reasons I was removed from the group.
My presence threatened the structure, and the structure always seeks to silence truth.
If you doubt me, research it yourself.
The publication dates, the authors’ biographies, the absence of ancient manuscripts, it is all there.
The truth is not hidden, it is just uncomfortable.
Restoration of the Truth
The Kybalion’s “Seven Principles” are not Hermetic Law.
The real system holds 13 Laws, preserved in fragments across initiatory lineages, temple records, and living oral traditions.
Here they are, restored and unfiltered.
- Law of Source — All emanates from the One.
- Law of Reflection — The universe mirrors your inner state.
- Law of Vibration — All is in motion; frequency determines experience.
- Law of Polarity — Opposites are degrees of the same essence.
- Law of Rhythm — All things cycle in waves and spirals.
- Law of Cause and Effect — Every cause has an effect; mastery works at cause level.
- Law of Gender — All creation arises from polarity integration.
- Law of Transmutation — Energy changes form but is never destroyed.
- Law of Integration — Transformation comes by integrating the shadow.
- Law of Fracture — Collapse reveals hidden truth.
- Law of Mirror Fracture — Distorted reflections can still guide the wise.
- Law of Return — What you send returns, amplified.
- Law of Sovereignty — No law is higher than your alignment with Source.
These are not theoretical ideas.
They are living mechanics that govern all planes of reality.
Activation of the Path
Knowing these laws is meaningless if you do not live them.
Here’s how to apply each one now.
Source: Begin each day with 3 minutes of stillness, act from unity.
Reflection: Keep a mirror log, track irritations/inspirations and what they reveal about you.
Vibration: Use sound, breath, and speech to match the state you want to inhabit.
Polarity: Identify the opposite pole of any challenge and take one step toward it.
Rhythm: Track your natural cycles; work with them, not against them.
Cause and Effect: Ask “What caused this?” three times before acting.
Gender: Balance receptive vision with active creation in all projects.
Transmutation: Channel strong emotions into productive creation.
Integration: Face avoided truths 10 minutes daily until they lose their charge.
Fracture: In loss, seek the hidden blueprint the break revealed.
Mirror Fracture: Extract truth from distortion without emotional reaction.
Return: Send deliberate acts of generosity into the field and watch their return.
Sovereignty: Question every external demand, act only from chosen alignment.
***. ******. ***.
We cannot claim to be seekers of truth while knowingly holding onto lies because they are comforting or popular.
True Hermetics is not a brand, not a book club, not a meme.
It is the living study of reality’s architecture, verified through direct experience.
The Kybalion and Doreal’s “Emerald Tablets” are chains made to look like keys.
Break them.
Burn them.
Walk free, and never forget, sometimes the gatekeepers of falsehood wear the robes of wisdom.
Sometimes they run the very groups that claim to “preserve” truth, and sometimes the only way to see their true face is to stand in your own sovereignty long enough for them to try to silence you.
Stop polishing the forgery.
Start living the real law.
The moment you step out of the lie, the real teaching begins.
