“The science of Thoth is the sacerdotal science of all times because it founded on an irrational basis and would be totally absurd otherwise. Its foundations are identical to those of every other philosophy concerned with the beginning of things. No determinate body can serve as a point of departure for the alcehmical opus, because what is involved is not a decomposition of matter (notwithstanding the beliefs of our atomists), but a generation of the matter of the world in the image of creation. Thus we are concerned here with revealed knowledge and not with rational science.”
