THE NEW WINE 2II been fulfilled : Aleister Crowley is the artist Elias , the marvellous being whom God has permitted to make a discovery of the highest importance in his illuminative philosophy of Crowleyanity , in the dazzling and flash ing light of which there is nothing concealed which shall not be discovered . It has taken 100,000,000 years to produce Aleister Crowley . The world has indeed laboured , and has at last brought forth a man . Bacon blames the ancient and scholastic philosophers for spinning webs , like spiders out of their own …

THE Equinox is so called, firstly, because it is the Com- ment upon the Word of the New Zon, #ednpa, which was given at the Equinox of the Gods, when the Crowned and Conquering Child, Horus, took the place of the Dying God, Osiris. (The Equinox marks a period of a fresh influx of Force from our Father the SUN.) Secondly, in accordance with this, publication takes place at the Equinoxes of Spring and Autumn of each year. The rule of the A..A.. is to alternate 5 years of silence with 5 years of…

Some difficulty about the ... (This sentence is now quite unintelligible.) To continue the identification, compare Christ's descent into hell with the function of Hermes as guide of the dead. Also Hermes leading up Eurydice, and Christ raising up Jairus' daughter. Christ is said to have risen on the third day, because it takes three days for the planet Me…

FICHTE , SCHELLING , AND HEGEL Close on the heels of Kant came Fichte with his un knowable appulse as the only potency of the not -self, which assuaged the raging thirst of inquiry as would a bottle of wine long since dry. Behind him Schelling , who leaping into the clouds , grasped at object and subject as existing actualities , calling the bastard child ren of his brain manifestations of the Absolute . Then Hegel who , instead of sitting out on the universal…
… as they descend upon all individuals, at no stated times, but as a reaction after much hard work; and usually they are forerunners of a new and higher realization of another un- known land to explore. Thus again and again do we find them rising and dissolving like some strange mist over the realms of the Vedanta. To disperse them we must consume them in that same fire which has consumed all we held dear; we must turn our engines of war about and destroy our sick and wounded, so that those who are strong and whole may press on the faster to vic…

… write down what happens. Within a week or two you will be astounded to discover that you have got what is apparently little less than a new brain! You must make this a habit, not letting anything get by the sentries. Indeed, I want you to go even further; make sure of what is meant by even the simplest words. Trace the history of the word with the help of Skeat's Etymological Dictionary. E.g. pretty means 'tricky', 'deceitful' ; on the other hand, hussy is only 'housewife'. It's amusing, too, this tabby refers to Prince Attab, the grandson of …

…depts conferred together, saying: May it not be written that the tribulations shall be shortened? Wherefore they resolved to establish a new Order which should be free from the errors and deceits of the former one. 21.

THE NEW WINE 279 How different is this agnosticism from the agnos ticism of Spencer ; which postulates as its first great principle , the unknowability of the Absolute , of whom we can conceive no proportion whatsoever , but whose relationship to us becomes closer and closer as we proceed along the way of the knowable — and perhaps actually becomes known when we ourselves become unknowable , i.e. , pure adepts . The second great principle is the Conservation of Matter and Energy , or in other words the law of Cause and Effect . A law we have go…
