Excellent piece of writing. I'm a novelist involved in a five part series and have been interweaving philosophy, quantum physics, spirituality as well as historical and political thought into it. It's fun, challenging and rewarding. Sometimes I read what I write and think damn did I write that - surely not. I enjoy the basic premise of Hermeticism as well as gnostic thought. It's so interesting to develop a character driven plot wihout using a lot of expository narrative to explain the science, philosphy and quanta I've put into the books. I've been trying to figure out how one gets a broader audience interested in all the things you write about, they're so critical to developing and understanding our metaphysical and spiritual lives beyond the constraints of organized religion.
