The Mystical and Medical Philosophy of Paracelsus by Many P. Hall
The Mystical and Medical Philosophy of Paracelsus By Manly P. Hall
Publishing: 1964 by The Philosophical Research Society, Unstated Edition
Condition: Very Good
If you are into the Mystical side of Paracelsus and are fond of Mr. Hall’s writing, this could be considered one of Hall’s best booklets. Paracelsus was not just a medieval genius, he was a revolutionary and did things most wouldn’t dare do during his time. He rebelled against the common educational system, listened to no one, and paved his own way and that is why there are so many books written about him. A classic case of a very intelligent man going against the system, and most likely getting murdered for it. (His considered cause of death is up for speculation.) RARE
“There are two kinds of flesh, the flesh derived from Adam and the flesh that is not from Adam. The flesh of Adam is coarse, earthly fresh that is tangible and can be held and tied. The flesh not from Adam is subtle and cannot be bound or held because it is not derived from the earth. The flesh from Adam cannot pass through solids; it must have openings in order to pass through. The flesh not from Adam passes through solid substances and needs no door. Yet it is flesh, blood, and bone, and is as real as human flesh. There are two sources, two fathers, two origins. You must understand the two kinds of flesh if you would know the elemental people of whom I speak. They differ from man though they resemble him. They have flesh, blood, and bone. They speak, eat, and drink; wander about and bear children. Yet they are not human, nor are they truly spirit…Man has a soul; the elemental has no spirit. ” - Theophrastus of Hohenheim; Book of Nymphs, Sylphs, Pygmies, and Salamanders, and Kindred Beings (an excerpt)
