242 I was bitterly opposed to the principles of the Book on almost every [point of morality. The third chapter seemed to me gratuitously atrocious. My soul, infinitely sad at the universal sorrow, was passionately eager to raise humanity. And lo! the Magical Formula denounced pity as damnable, acclaimed war as admirable and in almost every other way was utterly repugnant to my ideas. I did not understand the fundamental principles of {403} the initiation of mankind; and (in my own case) I did not realize that Aiwass was not necessarily responsi…

…ermination when the planet becomes uninhabitable makes all human endeavour a colossal fatuity. It is one of the principal theses of this book to show the above statement to be absurd, by offering a theory of realty compatible with sanity. However, that comes later. 1. Oxford was anathema maranatha to my Uncle Tom. Keble! Manning!! Newman!!! Procurers to the lords of hell far subtler and more fearful than Darwin, Huxley and Tyndall. 2.

…inite” distance apart. In fact, such use of the Calcultis is the one certain way of ensuring “straightness”. In the first chapter of the Book of the Law, the conclusion is of practical importance. It gives the definite formula for the attainment of truth. “I give unimaginable joys on earth: certainty, not faith, while in life, upon death; peace unutterable, rest, ecstasy; nor do I demand aught in sacrifice.” “But to love me is better than all things: if under the night‐stars in the desert thou presently burnest mine incense before me, invoking …

…of the speaker; but here I have nothing to do with the uncertain.? There is an excellent test for the value of any passage in a Buddhist book. We are, I think, justified in discarding stories which are clearly Oriental fiction, just as modern criticism, however secretly Theistic, discards the Story of Hasisadra or of Noah. In justice to Buddhism, let us not charge its Scripture with the Sisyphean task of seriously upholding the literal interpreta- tion of obviously fantastic passages.2 May our Buddhist zealots be warned by the fate of old-fashi…

…o expect and how to prevent them. We, therefore, make a definite attack on the multiplicity of thoughts by fixing the mind on one. In my Book Four, Part I, I have copied from my diary at this period an attempt at classification of invading ideas. I am very proud of this apparently simple observation and it will aid the reader to understand my work in Kandy if I insert it. Breaks are classed as follows: Firstly, physical sensations. These should have been overcome by Asana. Secondly, breaks that seem to be dictated by events immediately precedin…

…st infernally active on the globe. I cannot bear to eat a meal except as a deliberate debauch. I like to play a game of chess and read a book "while fortifying my body thereby" and engaging in conversation with the other guests. I was constantly devising dodges for making the most of every moment. I hate to shut a door behind me, on the ground that I might have to open it again. I detest changing my clothes. I keep my head shaved if there is any risk of being called upon to brush my hair. On the other hand, I like shaving myself because, as man…

The word is a No‐ tariqon of Iesous Christos Theou Huios Soter (Jesus Christ, Son of God, Saviour.) 2The Fool is also, evidently, an aspect of Pan; but this idea is shewn in his fullest development by Atu XV, whose letter is the semi‐vowel A’ain, cognate with Aleph.

…to secure that a man’s last thoughts should be of triumph, peace, joy, and their like ? Scept. I have been reading that somewhat mawkish book ‘‘The Soul of a People.” Disgusted as I was by its ooze of sentiment- ality, I was yet not unobservant of its cogni- sance of this fact, and I was even pleased— though this is by the way—to see that the author recognises in-the ridiculous First Pre- cept of the Buddhist Faith, or rather in the orthodox travesty of Buddha's meaning, a mere survival of some fetichistic theophagy.
