Hermetica Series Part 2 (Books V - XI)

The Corpus Hermeticum series is a deep dive into major hermetic texts.
Our aim is to seriously consider religious and philosophical ideas of Hermetica to help us find the North Star in an ever changing landscape of 21st century.
We will search for truths we can apply to our lives to help us dig ourselves out of the depressive, materialistic worm hole.
Let's see what we discover.
Our bounce board will be Brian Copenhaver's "Hermetica" which is the most recent and complete translation. You can purchase it here or I was able to download it for free here
Alternatively, there is Walter Scott translation (early 20th century) here and free download is available here

Part 1 : Introduction (optional) and Hermetica books 1 - 4 (18 pages)
Part 2: Books 5 -11 (25 pages)
Part 3: Books 12- 18 (24 pages)
Part 4: Asclepius (26 pages)
Part 5: Discourse on 8th and 9th for Nag Hammadi Library (will probably include of the less known gospels in here (gospel of Mary, or some other fascinating section) free download here

We will meet every other Thursday evening at 7 pm on Zoom.
Expectations are that you will do the reading assigned for that session and participate respectfully.
