Golden Tractate. Golden Tractate Details Written by Hermes Trismesgistus Section I Even thus saith Hermes: Through long years I have not ceased to experiment, neither have I have spared any labour of mind And this science and art I have obtained by the sole inspiration of the living God, who judged fit to open them to me His servant, who has given to rational creatures the power of thinking and judging aright, forsaking none, or giving to any occasion to despair.
For myself, I had never discovered this matter to anyone had it not been from fear of the day of judgment, and the perdition of my soul if I concealed it.

Mystic Order of Noble Knowledge - Thoth Hermes Trismegistus. One of the greatest tragedies to befall the philosophical world was the destruction of the Great Library of Alexandria. Of the thousands of scrolls of ancient knowledge that were burned, forty books were said to be written by the greatest philosopher, teacher, and ancient monk of all time, those writings of Thoth Hermes Trismegistus.
Thoth was the first great Egyptian philosopher and the creator of the Ancient Mystery Schools. It was said that Hermes obtained his wisdom from God while in deep meditative states. His knowledge was so vast, the Egyptians began to worship him as the communicator with the gods, and eventually he became a god of the Egyptian pantheon. The Greeks abducted him into their mythology and here he became Hermes Trismegistus. The Romans called him Mercury because Mercury is the nearest planet to the sun, and Hermes was the nearest living creature to the gods. Many think he became Enoch to the Jews, the “Second Messenger of God.” The Thrice Great Hermes Trismegistus - Pi & the English Alphabet / Marty Leeds.
