Aurora or Day-Spring

The best and most important piece in the oeuvre of Jakob Böhme (1575-1624) the legendary inspirationalist Christian mystic of 17th century Germany who created an unparalleled synthesis of Christianity, the Bible, Hermetism, the Kabbalah, Alchemy and Astrology. Many ideas also suggest Arian and Manichean influences. Everybody read him who mattered during the past centuries: William Law, Henry More, Isaac Newton, St. Martin, Franz von Baader, Hegel, Schelling, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche or Philip K. Dick were all impressed by his inspirational work and used many of his ideas. This book is a MUST READfor ALL who is interested in philosophy, the history of religion or just simply a believer.

It's biggest value lies in its teachings on good and evil, time and space, the relationship of man and nature, and the unity of Becoming and Being.
