    Dear Rawn,

    Quite honestly, while I follow an essentially Hermetic path and
    philosophy, I do not agree with all aspects of any one philosophy. Be
    it Hermetic or psychological. One aspect that I do not agree with
    would be the idea of mind-body dualism. To me, the mind and body are
    essentially one and the same. So the brain is a necessary consequence
    of us having a mind, and so the mind is a necessary consequence of us
    having a brain. In some respects it reminds me of the statement for
    Mulkuth in the pattern on the trestleboard, "10. The Kingdom of
    Spirit is embodied in my flesh." Which appears to say that
    physicality is a natural consequence of the primal expression of
    spirit.

    Moreover, over my years of studying and practicing all sorts of
    esoteric things, some of which where quite questionable, I came to
    the conclusion long ago that it is probably best to exhaust all
    possible physiological explinations before moving into the realm of
    metaphysical explinations. But that's just my cautious, skeptical
    nature showing through after having been burned by believing too
    fully within a rather faulty metaphysical conception of the self and
    universe.

    Love and Live well,
    Peter Reist
