Poimandres - The Divine Mind
The first book of the Corpus Hermeticum and its divine vision.
Poimandres ('shepherd of men') is the divine Mind that appears to Hermes and reveals the nature of reality. This text describes creation, the fall of humanity, and the path of return. It is the foundation of the Hermetic worldview.
I am Poimandres, the Mind of the Sovereignty.
Poimandres represents the Hermetic equivalent of scripture's revelation narratives.
