A NOTE HIS book is intentionally not the work of Frater Perdurabo. Ex- perience shows that his writing is too concentrated, too abstruse, too occult, for ordinary minds to apprehend. It is thought that this record of disjointed fragments of his casual conversation may prove alike more intelligible and more convincing, and at least provide a pre- liminary study which will enable the student to attack his real work from a standpoint of some little general knowledge and understanding of his ideas, and of the form in which he figures them.

…the year 1909 we find the drawing together of the Paths by which Frater P. had been travelling. First (March 21), the conscious personal work of his life was crystallized in the thorough establishment of his system of Scientific Illuminism or Sceptical Theurgy through the publication of Number I of the Equinox; Second (October 27), he accomplished his purely human duty without which he had no right to become Sannyasin ; Third (April), another purely human side of his life reached a proper climax ; Fourth (December), he was relieved of his last …

But this latter difficulty is easily overcome by the reader , who has only to pick and choose for himself ; the work of an appreciative essayist being merely that of producing a characteristic display of what he considers the most attractive wares .

…ary house, such as you are happy enough to possess. First of all, it is of immense advantage to have a room specially consecrated to the Work, never used for any other purpose, and never entered by any other person than yourself, unless it were another Initiate, either for inspection or in case you were working together. The aura accumulates with the regularity and frequency of Use. The first point is the Banishing : Everything is to be removed from the room which is not absolutely necessary to the Work. In this country, one must attend to the …

Though «all worlds fail, the pulse of Life be still, God fall, all darken, he hath not his will Of deeds beyond recall, that shall endure : For us, these three divinest glasses fill,

…that the Obstacles are many. This then is the Case of Magick; for if thou have brought to Harmony all Principles within thee, thou mayst work easily to transmute a Force into its semblable upon another Plane, which is the essential Miracle of our Art; but if thou be at War within thyself, how canst thou work? For our Master Hermes Trismegistus hat written at the Head of His Tablet of Emerald this Word: That which is above is like that which is below, and that which is below is like that which is above, for the Performance of the Miracle of the …

…honest and most honourable way of getting money is to sell one's writings. Yet I still feel there is something very wrong about it. Good work is priceless and bad work is worthless. Besides, even the best writers are tempted to do their worst work by the fact that publishers, as a class, are persuaded that the public prefer rubbish. The fact is that there are hardly half a dozen writers in England today who have not sold out to the enemy. Even when their good work has been a success, Mammon grips them and whispers, "More money for more work." O…
