Back to: The Hermetic Laws & Quantum Physics
Introduction and Final Words from the Course Creator Before You Begin
Hi, and welcome to The Great Work Platform. I am honored that a fellow truth seeker has made the decision to expand upon their knowledge of this incredible reality we all share. Whether just checking out this course or jumping in with both feet, I’m truly happy you are here.
While I guess you could say I am a little biased, I truly believe you will not be disappointed with the amazing information you are about to discover throughout this course. (and any of the courses on The Great Work Platform for that matter) 😊
My passion for uncovering the true nature of reality has been going on for decades now and I continue to learn more every day. My daily goal is to always learn something. I believe knowledge is a powerful tool that ultimately leads to wisdom, and a more content and joyful life.
Even with decades of research into the true nature of reality, as I’ve developed these courses, new insights have been gained. We truly live in an amazing reality. From the awareness gained through ancient wisdom concepts to what modern science has revealed, this journey of discovery never disappoints. And I am so glad I’ve have the privilege to share what I have been learning with other like-minded individuals.
Let us talk about this course of study you are embarking on. For me personally, the two main subjects that will be explored and discussed, the Hermetic principles and quantum physics, are a couple of my favorites for sure. As I’ve dug into those subjects over the years, I started to realize how connected they were. In my humble opinion, I believe this course you are beginning is going to open your mind and show you that connection as well.
Now, more food for thought.
Every inquiry begins somewhere. This one begins with a question that has been asked, in various forms, for as long as human beings have looked at the night sky and tried to understand what they were seeing. The ancient Hermeticists looked and saw Mind. The modern physicists looked and found something they can describe precisely but not fully explain. This course is an invitation to look for yourself, with the best tools from both traditions, and to see what you see.
I want to say something plainly before you begin. I have been sitting with this question for most of my adult life. I have studied the Hermetic tradition in depth. I have studied physics carefully. I have looked for the correspondences honestly and found some that I believe are genuine, some that I believe are illuminating analogies, and some that I believe are well-intentioned distortions. I have a position, and I share it in the course. But the position is held lightly, because the question is genuinely hard, and intellectual honesty demands that kind of lightness.
What I am more confident about is this: the inquiry itself is worth doing. Not because it will resolve the question, it may not, but because the capacity to hold two very different frameworks simultaneously, to look for genuine structure rather than comfortable validation, and to maintain intellectual honesty even when a more satisfying answer is available, is one of the most valuable things a mind can learn to do. That capacity is what this course is ultimately training. The Hermetic-physics correspondence is the arena. The trained mind is the prize.
The Great Work is here. The Great Work is now. And the Great Work is you.
See you in Module 0.
