Love the Hermetica translation. I have Ivanhoe but I haven't cracked it open yet. It good?

Eclecticism is the only way to go. Obviously, any human tradition of wisdom is subject to corruption, and in the end, you have to follow your own intuition anyway.

Joyce solved the rebus of the universe and crafted for us a microcosm version of its grand, ridiculous story. It's about being able to hold it all in your mind at once, and that feat inducing an experience of gnosis or enlightenment (being awake). Plebs too lazy to engage with it on its own terms and arrogant enough to dismiss it can't be privy to its treasures.
