Nor let the fools mistake love; for there are love and love. There is the dove, and there is the serpent. Choose ye well!

Diary of a Drug Fiend

…ccurred. The bell rang. Lamus sprang to the door. A tall old man was standing on the steps. “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law,” said Lamus. “ Love is the law, love under will,” replied the other. It was like a challenge and countersign. “T’ve got to talk to you for an hour.” “Of course, I’m at your service,” replied our host. “The only thing is——’”’ He broke off. My brain was extraordinarily clear. My self- confidence was boundless. I felt inspired. I saw the way out. A little devil laughed in my heart: ‘“ What an excellent schem…

The Book of Thoth

… sacred title of the most holy Ancient Ones, who are Hua. (The word HUA, “he”, has the numerical value of 12.) The limitation of mundane law, which is always associated with the number Four, has disappeared. Gone are the four arms of a Cross limited by law; the creative energy of the Cross expands freely; its rays pierce in every direction the body of Our Lady of the Stars. With regard to the wall, it should be noted that it completely encircles the top of the mound; this is to emphasize that the formula of the Rose and Cross is still valid in …

…e ideas blend naturally with the higher and deeper significance of the card. There is a direct reference to this card in the Book of the Law. In Chapter I, verse 57, the goddess Nuith speaks: “Invoke me under my stars! Love is the law, love under will. Nor let the fools mistake love; for there are love and love. There is the dove, and there is the serpent. Choose ye well!

The Star in the West

… there is a mental “ whirl " which , though irrational to pure reason , has an incalculable value , probably depending on certain higher laws unknown to the rational world . When the soul has reached this point , law , in the rational sense of the term , has ceased to have any existence , and it henceforth enters into direct communion with the Good ; which is its own law . Thus when we have raised our hearts to the nth power , we become as Gods knowing good and evil ; and if this raising of the heart , which Crowley so brilliantly sets forth th…

… and that strangely, as thou knowest, upon the Scarlet Woman called Hilarion, as it was mysteriously foretold unto me in The Book of the Law. Now therefore that thou art come to the Age of Understanding, do hou give ear unto my Wisdom, for that therein lieth a simple and direct Way for every Man that he may attain to the End. Firstly, then, I would have thee to know that Spiritual Experience and Perfection have no necessary connection with Advancement in our Holy Order. But for each Man is a Path: here is a Constant, and there is a Variable. Se…

The Book of Lies

…hat is, a falsehood, of THAT which is not? Yet THAT which is not neither is nor is not That which is! Identity is perfect; therefore the Law of Identity is but a lie. For there is no subject, and there is no predicate; nor is there the contradictory of either of these things. Holy, Holy, Holy are these Truths that I utter, knowing them to be but falsehoods, broken mirrors, troubled waters; hide me, O ovr Lady, in Thy Womb! for I may not it from me! Amen.

The Law is for All

86 The Law is for All Stop that, and it is Revolution. As long as a man can get rid of his surplus Energy in enjoyment, he finds life easy, and submits. Deprive him of Pleasure, of Ecstasy, and his mind begins to worry about the way in which he is exploited and oppressed. Very soon he begins furtively to throw bombs; and, gathering strength, to send his tyrants to the gallows. 64. I am the blue-lidded daughter of Sunset; I am the naked brilliance of the voluptuous night-sky. 65. To me! To me! 66. The Manifestation of Nuit is at an end.

Confessions of Aleister Crowley

541 Of course (in practice) many people, perhaps the majority, will not accept {853} the Law of Thelema. We found that life in the abbey with its absolute freedom was too severe a strain on those who were accustomed to depend on others. The responsibility of being truly themselves was too much for them; but sooner or later, without any action on our part, without any quarrel or ostensible reason, they found themselves ejected into their "previous condition of servitude". The Book of the Law anticipates this: "... the slaves shall serve. ..." Th…
