I should have also mentioned The Hermetic Tradition, along with other books in the same vein.

He believed in occult laws behind the workings of the universe, but he uses the term "magic" in a different sense than is commonly understood. He takes the supposedly old meaning of an active and heroic overcoming of the human condition, which is the meaning it has in della Riviera's "Magical World of the Heros". It's more like Buddhism than what you'd typically think of as magic, since the goal is transcendence, not phenomena.

Wrong.
