…ith King Arthur. The higher the type of man, the more sensitive he becomes; so that the noblest love divines intuitively when a careless word or gesture may wound, and, vigilant, shuns them as being of the family of murder. In Magick, likewise, the Adept who is sworn to attain to the Know¬ ledge and Conversation of his Holy Guardian Angel may in his grosser days hâve been expert as a Healer, to find that he is now incapable of any such work. He will probably be puzzled, and wonder whether he has lost ail his power. Y et the cause may be no more…

This book is for ALL: for every man, woman, and child. My former work has been misunderstood, and its scope limited, by my use of technical terms. It has attracted only too many dilettanti and eccentrics, weaklings seeking in “Magic” an escape from …

…ght is the great plastic medium. The alliance of the soul and the body is a marriage of light and shadow. Light is the instrument of the Word, it is the white writing of God upon the great book of night. Light is the source of thought, and it is in it that one must seek for the origin of all religious dogma. But there is only one true dogma, as there is only one pure light; shadow alone is infinitely varied. Light, shadow, and their harmony, which is the vision of beings, form the principle analogous to the great dogmas of Trinity, of Incarnati…

… hardihood proved unequal to the task. This form of dishonesty reaches its climax in the expurgating of the classics. " The Bible is the Word of God, written by holy men, as they were inspired by the Holy Ghost. But we will cut out those passages which we think unsuitable." " Shakespeare is our greatest poet — but, of course, he is very dreadful." " No one can surpass the lyrics of Shelley, but we must pretend that he was not an atheist." Some translators could not bear that the heathen Chinese should use the word Shang Ti, and pretended that i…

…ngular is a totally different pair of Bluchers-nicht wahr? Let me go back just for a moment to the meaning of belief. We agreed that the word was senseless except as it implies an opinion , instinct, conviction-what you please!-so fIrmly entrenched in our natures that we act automatically as if it were 'true' and 'certain without error', perhaps even 'of the essence of truth'. (Browning discusses this in Mr. Sludge the Medium. ) Good: the fIeld is clear for an enquiry into this word 'God' . We fInd ourselves in trouble from the start. We must d…

The first thing that strikes us is that it contains Seven Words: the Second that the number of its letters is cwenty- eight. Thus does it perfectly symbolise in its entirety the third Symbol in the numerical evolution. Before proceeding to a detailed analysis, and following the Process of Creation by Time (¢.e., beginning at the first letter, and so proceeding), let me point out a few general facts.

…a pupil on a skeleton left by the mas- ter. But the very stigmata on which this view is based — the absence of the Takhallus, and of the word “ kun ” — seem to us to point the other way. No forger would have omitted so simple a precau- tion. It is possible that the ode is incomplete. More reasonable seems the suggestions that el Haji (1) disliked the introduction of his holy word [Persian text] and of his sacred Name in an ode of

This partly refers to certain Iddhi, concerning Under- standing of Devas (gods) etc.; here the word ‘wind’ may be interpreted as ‘spirit.’ It is comparatively easy to reach this state, and it has no great importance. The ‘walker of the sky’ is much superior to the mere reader of the minds of ants. 39. Before thou seti’st thy foot upon the ladder’s upper rung, the ladder of the mystic sounds, thou hast to hear the voice of thy INNER God in seven manners.

The import of this discovery was terrific; 93 is the value of Theta Epsilon Lambda Eta Mu Alpha , the Word of the Law proclaimed by Aiwass, and of Alpha Gamma Alpha Pi Eta , Love, part of the interpretation of Theta Epsilon Lambda Eta Mu Alpha .
