Magick Without Tears

298 MAGICK WITHOUT TEARS finally to the Sun, where they are composed of pure Fire. Eliphaz Levi says: "In the Suns we remember; in the planets we forget." Most of this is the merest speculation, useless and possibly harmful; but I don't mind relaxing occasionally to that extent. What is important is the Oath. One who is vowed to the A :. A:. 's Mission for Mankind, who takes it dead seriously, and who will be neither frightened nor bored from Its majestic purpose, may at any time bind himself by an Oath to reject the rewards of Devachan, and reincarnate immediately again and again. By "immediately" is meant about 6 months before the birth of the new Adept, about 3 months after his last death . It depends to some extent, no doubt, on whether he can find a suitable vehicle. Presumably, he will make some sort of preparation while still alive. It seems that I personally must have taken this Oath quite a long while ago; for the Incarnations which I actually remember leave very few gaps to be filled in the last dozen centuries or so. Now, dear sister, I don't like this letter at all, and I am sorry that I had to write it. For most of these statements are insusceptible of proof. And yet I feel their truth much more strongly than I have ventured to express. How many times have I warned you against 'feelings'? Love is the law, love under will. Yours fraternally, 666
