Some interesting "old" theories.

Excerpt from C2C:

Mitch Horowitz discussed the new film, The Kybalion (view trailer), on its premiere date. Mitch stars in the feature-length adaptation of the 1908 esoteric classic, which is filled with ancient Egyptian wisdom for today. The documentary was shot on location in Egypt and explores the precepts of hermeticism – a Greek/Egyptian philosophy developed in Alexandria in the generations immediately following the death of Christ. The word 'Kybalion' seems to be a riff on the mystical system Kabbalah, Horowitz pointed out. While the authorship of the book is attributed to the "Three Initiates," it's believed the actual writer was the Chicago lawyer and occultist William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) known for publishing books on "new thought" under various pseudonyms.
