…E OF THE SILENCE.” It should not be assumed that this is the case. However, assuming that the first Fragment explains the Path as far as Master of the Temple, it is legitimate to regard this second Fragment, so called, as the further instruction; for the Master of the Tem- ple must leave his personal progress to attend to that of other people, a task from which, I am bound to add, even the most patient of Masters feels at times a tendency to revolt! 2. The voice of the Candidates: Shalt not thou, Master of thine own Mercy, reveal the doc- trine…

THE SEVEN PORTALS less contemplation of the Universe. The Master of the Tem- ple, as he is in himself, is a rather similar person. Narjol is the Path-Treader, not a paraffin-purgative. 13. Before thou canst approach the last, O weaver of thy freedom, thou hast to master these Paramités of perfection —the virtues transcendental six and ten in number—along the weary Path. We now get back to the Paramitas, and this treatise is ap- parently silent with regard to them. Does any one regret it? It isn’t the Path that is weary: it is the Sermons on the…

… its obvious literal sense. There is a clean way of Love, but it is not this toshy slop treacle-goo. 19. Of teachers there are many; the MASTER-SOUL is one, Alaya, the Universal Soul. Live in that MASTER as ITS ray in thee. Live in thy fellows as they live in IT. Here the killing of the sense of separateness is further ad- vised. It is a description of the nature of Atma, and Atma is, as elsewhere stated, not a Buddhist, but a Hindu idea. The teaching is here to refer everything to Atma, to regard everything as a corruption of Atma, if you plea…

THE EQUINOX It should be noticed that this is not quite identical with the way in which the Master of the Temple detaches the being that was once called “Self” to fling it down from the Abyss that it may ‘appear in the Heaven of Jupiter as a morning star or as an evening star, to give light to them that dwell upon the earth.’ This Magus is a much stronger person than the Master of the Temple. He is the creative force, while the Master is merely the receptive. But in these verses 78, 79, 80, it might be very easily supposed that it was merely a …

…f, O thou who wast Dis- ciple, but art Teacher now. The five impediments are usually taken to be the five senses. In this case the term “Master of the sixth” becomes of profound significance. The ‘sixth sense’ is the race- instinct, whose common manifestation is in sex; this sense is then the birth of the Individual or Conscious Self with the ‘Dwarf-Self,’ the Silent Babe, Harpocrates. The “four modes of Truth” (noble Truths) are adequately described in “Science and Buddhism.” [See Crowley, Collected Works.] 84. And of these modes of Truth: Has…

…le of being substituted for an equivalent. This is character- istic of practically all writing on Eastern thought. What was wanted was a Master of some Occidental language to obtain the experiences of the East by undertaking the prac- tices of the East. His own experience put into words would then form a far better translation of Oriental works on the same subject, than any translation which a scholar might furnish. I am inclined to think that this was Blavatsky’s method. So obvious a forgery as this volume only contains so much truth and wisdo…

…lf, the Watcher and the silent Thinker, the victim of thy lower Self. Thy Soul cannot be hurt but through thy erring body; con- trol and master both, and thou art safe when crossing to the nearing “Gate of Balance.” Here we have Alaya identified with Atma. The rest of the verse is mostly poetic nothing, and there is no guide to the meaning of the word “Soul.” It is a perfectly absurd theory to regard the body as capable of inflicting wounds upon the Soul, which is apparently the meaning here. The definition of Atma gives impassibility as almost…
