…Truth. I know The things above are as the things below, The things below are as the things above, To wield the One Thing's Thaumaturgy — Love. As all from one sprang, by one contemplation, So all from one were born, by permutation. Sun sired, Moon bore, this unique Universe; Air was its chariot, and Earth its nurse. Here is the root of every talisman Of the whole world, since the whole world began. Here is the fount and source of every soul. Let it be spilt on earth! its strength is whole. Now gently, subtly, with thine Art conspire To fine the…

Kiss me , between the music of our sighing , Lightning and rain ! 1 A curious conflict this ’twixt love and fear , “ honour and lust , and truth and trust beguiled ; " they wan dered in the scented garden of man's heart , and all their restraint was as ephemeral as the fleeting hour . “ And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food , and that it was pleasant to the eyes , and a tree to be desired to make one wise , she took of the fruit thereof , and did eat , and gave also unto her husband with he…

Oh, but it was a most enthralling narrative! Beginning with a comic account of the creation, possibly intended as a satire on our men of science or our men of religion—'twould serve equally well in either case—it went on to a thrilling hospital scene.

…rds. At the moveless point Where all power, light, life, motion concentrate, I found God dwelling. Strong, immaculate, He knew me and he loved ! His lips anoint My lips with love ; with thirst insatiate He drank my breath, Absorbed my life in His, dispersed me, gave me death. VIII. This is release, is freedom, is desire ; This is the one hope that a man may gain ; This is the lasting ecstasy of pain That fools reject, the dread, the searching fire That quivers in the marrow, that in vain Burns secretly The unconsuméd bush where God lurks privil…

Even for centuries nine and ten, Life of women — death of men ! In that sinister sad star Men shall bear the upright bar, Hanged for honesty and truth, Wisdom, courage, love, or youth.

Gray blue eyes from the sphered opal eyelids Look me through and make me a deep con- tentment Slow dissolving desire.

With all these "sore spots" is closely linked the idea of cruelty. I need not touch upon the relation of cruelty to sex; the theme has been worn threadbare. But in religion, note the Bottomless Pit and the Eternal Flame; in Buddhism, the eighteen hot and eighteen cold Hells, with many another beneath. Hindu eschatology has countless Hells; even pedestrian, precise Islam, and the calculating…

…sp of the understand ing , and the Ego sloughs its outward empirical skin , we then become mystics ; nevertheless , “ If any man say , I love God , and hateth his brother , he is a liar . For he that loveth not his brother whom he seeth , how can he love God whom he seeth not .” So the mystic's work lies here in life , and the greatest and most divine mystics have probably been those whose naïveté of soul was such , that they knew not that they were mystics , and whose illumination has become so brilliant , that they cannot even find expression…

THE EQUINOX become a father in order that he may have more children to devour. To conquer love is to triumph over the whole of Nature. To submit it to justice is to rehabilitate life by devoting it to immortality; thus the greatest works of the Christian revelation are the creation of voluntary virginity and the sanctification of marriage. While love is nothing but a desire and an enjoyment, it is mortal. In order to make itself eternal it must become a sacrifice, for then it becomes a power and a virtue. It is the struggle of Eros and Anteros …

Reading this typescript over for "literals," it struck me that you would ask, very reasonably, "But if the Secret Masters have these boundless powers, why do They allow you to be plagued by printers, held up for lack of secretaries, worried by all sorts of practical problems? ...
