THE VOICE OF THE SILENCE This account of Samadhi is very incongruous. Through- out the whole treatise Hindoo ideas are painfully mixed with Buddhist, and the introduction of the ‘four noble truths’ comes very strangely as the precursor of verses 88 and 89. 89. Behold! thou hast become the Light, thou hast be- come the Sound, thou art thy Master and thy God. Thou art THYSELF the object of thy search: the VOICE unbroken, that resounds throughout eternities, exempt from change, from sin exempt, the Seven Sounds in one, THE VOICE OF THE SILENCE Om …

Note, pray thee, the whole implication of the chapter that sooner or later we are to break the power of the slaves of the slave-gods by actual fighting. Ultimately, Freedom must rely upon the sword. It is impossible to treat in this epistle of the vast problems involved in this question; and they must be decided in accordance with the Law by those in authority in the Order when the time comes. Thou wilt note that We have written u…

…privileges of members of the O.T.O. are very numerous. These are the principal: 1° They have not only access to, but instruction in, the whole body of hidden knowledge preserved in the Sanctuary from the beginning of its manifestation. In the lower grades the final secrets are hinted, and conveyed in symbol, beneath veil, and through sacrament. In this way the intelligence of the initiate is called into play, so that he who well uses the knowledge of the lower grades may be selected for invitation to the higher, where all things are declared op…

STEPPING OUT OF THE OLD AON INTO THE NEW Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. As all of you should know, we have entered a New Zon. A Higher Truth has been given to the World. This truth is waiting in readiness for all those who will consciously accept it, but it has to be realised before it is understood, and day by day those who have accepted this Law, and are trying to live it, realize more and more of its Beauty and Perfection. The new teaching appears strange at first; and the mind is unable to grasp more than a fragment of wha…

Almost the whole of the Hindu psychology is an example of this kind of journal- ism. They are not content with the supreme God. The other man wishes to show off by having a supremer God than that, and when a third man comes along and finds them disputing, it is up to him to invent a supremest super-God. It is simply ridiculous to try to add to the definit…

DE LEGE LIBELLVM infinite energy of the whole Universe is therein, what then is possible but that it return to its own First Intention, dissolv- ing itself little by little into that Light which is its most se- cret and most subtle Nature? For this Universe is in Truth Zero, being an equation whereof Zero is the sum. Whereof this is the proof, that if not, it would be unbalanced, and something would have come from Nothing, which is absurd.
