An account of the world and its divinity according to the Stoic philosopher Quintus Lucilius Balbus (fl. 100 BC), a character appearing in Cicero's dialogue De Natura Deorum (On the Nature of the Gods). This work is part of a collaboration on Stoic philosophy with @TheEsotericaChannel exploring the links between Stoicism and Esotericism, so please check out Dr. Justin Sledge's video "Stoic Origins of Western Occultism, Perennialism, Esoteric Hermeneutics & Magical Correspondences" ([ Ссылка ]) as a companion piece to this reading.
