Item description from seller

Translated by Ariel Godwin. Edited by Joscelyn Godwin. German Edition 1965, Translation Society Edition 2008. 135 Pages, Including 80 Geometric Plates and 12 FULL COLOR PLATES. This is the 3rd book in the Sacred Science Translation Society series. This book is one of the greatest cosmological masterpieces ever written! Eberhard Wortmann is the only know modern Magister Ludi to have corresponded with Hermann Hesse, author of the Glass Bead Game, who in appreciation of his brilliant work called him a "Master Glass Bead Game Player." The Sacred Science Institute is working in conjunction with Wortmann's family to produce English translations of Wortmann's complete works, of which this is the first. Wortmann's works contain hundreds of the most sophisticated diagrams on Sacred Geometry, Pythagorean and Platonic number theory, harmonics, cosmology and astronomy ever seen, as well as one of the most intricate elaborations of universal order and cosmic law in the tradition of the great esoteric mystery schools. The vast and synthetic thinking process presented in these works inspired a correspondence between Hesse and Wortmann discussing the Glass Bead Game. Wortmann says, "Here it should be mentioned that the Platonic riddle of numbers are actually a question of logical games of thought, "Glass Bead Games", as Hermann Hesse, the great writer and man, had named this kind of mental business." But this fascinating work goes beyond describing merely the structure and order of the universe, these Platonic diagrams have been theorized as giving the schematics of the mathematical and geometrical structure of the Soul and subtle bodies. Could this mathematical order within the consciousness of man, the Microcosm, correlated with the grand structure of the cosmos, the Macrocosm, be the Great Secret that Plato hid in his abstract number and geometric riddles? Wortmann things so, and now you can explore these magical and mysterious realms of the highest thought with this new translation.…
