The Heart of the Master

…ss where it lead thee! The axle moveth not: attain thou that! XI. Mitigate Energy with Love; but let Love devour all things. Worship the name _______*, foursquare, mystic, wonderful, and the name of His House 418. (*This Name to be communicated to those worthy of that Initiation.) XII. Let not the waters whereon thou journeyest wet thee! And, being come to shore, plant thou the Vine and rejoice without shame. XIII. The Universe is Change: every Change is the effect of an Act of Love; all Acts of Love contain Pure Joy. Die daily! Death is the ap…

The Law is for All

…Abyss of my Being; and I wrote in my Magical Record the Triumph for which I have warred for over seventeen years 718 XTHAH 666 NO FITTER NAME COULD BE FOUND, THAT WAS SURE... And then came a flash to confirm me, to chase the last cloud of criticism: the actual name of the Stèle, its ordinary name, the only name it ever had until it was called the “stélé of revealing”, in The Book of the Law itself, “its name” in the Catalogue of the Museum at Bülâq, was just this: “Stèle 666.” I have described this discovery at length because I wish to emphasiz…

The Law is for All

…Cephalœdium of Trinacria. These verses are very subtly worded. How should I under­ stand this allusion to the Stèle; how “count well its name” without knowing it? I tried to count “Abomination of Desolation”, but that is what “they shall call” it, not its proper name. It seemed that this name, when found, ought to add to 718, or to be identical with some other word or phrase that did so. More, this name when found must somehow express “the fall of Because”. For many years these two verses, despite elaborate research, yielded no meaning soever. …

Perish the wretch whose Tyrolean soul Fails to blot out the accurséd name — Tyrol ! Ah Mussolini ! you have yet to learn What quality of flame is wont to burn In mountain air. ’Twere wiser not to risk Meeting the glacier breed of Basilisk. Tempt not the spirit of the Storm ! Mine eye Sees through the darkness of futurity, The modern Gessler meet a modern Tell — Tyrol ! hunt M…

… Time, and the prize of them that have overcome Space. This is she that is set upon the Throne of Understanding. Holy, Holy, Holy is her name, not to be spoken among men. For Koré they have called her, and Malkah, and Betulah, and Persephone. “And the poets have feigned songs about her, and the prophets have spoken vain things, and the young men have dreamed vain dreams: but this is she, that immaculate, the name of whose name may not be spoken. Thought cannot pierce the glory that defendeth her, for thought is smitten dead before her presence.…

The Vision and the Voice

THE VISION AND THE VOICE And Satan is worshipped by men under the name of Jesus; and Lucifer is worshipped by men under the name of Brahma; and Leviathan is worshipped by men under the name of Allah; and Belial is worshipped by men under the name of Buddha. (This is the meaning of the passage in Liber Legis, Chap. III.) Moreover, there is Mary, a blasphemy against BABALON, for she hath shut herself up; and therefore is she the Queen of all those wicked devils that walk upon the earth, those that thou sawest even as little black specks that stai…

After whom came three names Great and Terrible that I write not in this place. Lastly appeared this newly-writ hieroglyph of the Lion, and the Name of that Brother was hidden from me.

When one kills in the name of the God who said, “Thou shalt not kill,’ when one persecutes in the name of Him who commands us to forgive our enemies, when one propagates darkness in the name of Him who tells us not to hide the light under a bushel, is it just to attribute the crime to the very law which condemns it?

…n its works, in its aspirations, more magnificently ideal than the highest poetry, a spirit for which it was neces- sary to create a new name, a name altogether unheard*in the sanctuaries of antiquity. This name was created, and we shall demonstrate that this name, this word, is, in religion, as much for science as for faith, the expression of the absolute. The word is CHARITY, and the spirit of which we speak is the spirit of charity. Before charity, faith prostrates itself, and conquered science bows. There is here evidently something greater…
