The Law is for All
46. I am the warrior Lord of the Forties: the Eighties cower
before me, & are abased. I will bring you to victory & joy:
I will be at your arms in battle & ye shall delight to slay.
Success is your proof; courage is your armour; go on, go on,
in my strength; & ye shall turn not back for any!
47. This book shall be translated into all tongues: but always
with the original in the writing of the Beast; for in the chance
shape of the letters and their position to one another: in
these are mysteries that no Beast shall divine. Let him not
seek to try: but one cometh after him, whence I say not, who
shall discover the Key of it all. Then this line drawn is a key:
then this circle squared in its failure is a key also. And
Abrahadabra. It shall be his child & that strangely. Let him
not seek after this; for thereby alone can he fall from it.
48. Now this mystery of the letters is done, and I want to go on
to the holier place.
49. I am in a secret fourfold word, the blasphemy against all
gods of men.
Commentary: The evident interpretation of this is to take the
word to be “Do what thou wilt,” which is a secret word, because
its meaning for every man is his own inmost secret. And it is the
most profound blasphemy possible against all “gods of men”,
because it makes every man his own God.
We may then take it that this Solar-Phallic Heru-ra-ha1 is Each
Man Himself. As each independent cell in our bodies is to us, so is
each of us to Heru-ra-ha. Each man’s “Child”-consciousness is a
Star in the Cosmos of the Sun, as the Sun is a Star in the Cosmos
of Nuit.
1 [See verse 35.]
50. Curse them! Curse them! Curse them!
51. With my Hawk’s head I peck at the eyes of Jesus as he hangs
upon the cross.
Commentary: We are to consider carefully the particular
attack of Heru-ra-ha against each of these “gods,” or prophets;
