Came across this title in a footnote and had to track it down. Some sections stopped me cold in the best way. Recommended if you're ready to do the work.
Long-time student of the esoteric here. Not a light read, but far more accessible than I feared. Deserves a place on any esoteric bookshelf.
Bought this as a gift for my sister and ended up ordering a second copy for myself. It pairs well with more modern commentaries on the same tradition. It rewards patience more than any book I've bought this year.
Added this to my reference shelf. It reads better in small doses — a chapter at a time with notes. Happy enough with the purchase.
I've read excerpts online before, but having the full text is different. It connects ideas I'd only seen treated separately elsewhere. The print is clean and easy on the eyes for long sessions. Recommended with reservations.
