LIBER ALEPH VEL CXI
118
Dn
De Necessitate Verbi Clamandi
(Of the Need of Shouting the Word)
E that striveth against his own Nature is a Fool, and
wotteth
not
his
Will,
darkening
Counsel
in
himself, and denying his own God, and giving
Place to Choronzon. So then his Work becometh Hotchpot,
and he is shattered and dispersed in the Abyss.
Nor is it
better for him if he do this for the supposed Good of another,
and for that other is it Evil also in the End of the Matter. For
to manifest thine own Division to another, and to deceive
him, is but to confirm him in blindness, or Illusion, and to
hinder or to deflect him in his Way. Now to do thine own
Will is to leave him free to do his own Will, but to mask thy
Will is to falsify one of the Beacons by which he may steer his
Ship. My son, all division of Soul, that begetteth Neurosis
and Insanity, cometh from wrong Adjustment to Reality, and
to Fear thereof. Wilt thou then hide Truth from thy Brother,
lest he suffer? Thou dost not well, but confirmest him in
Iniquity, and in Illusion, and in Infirmity of Spirit.
