SIR PALAMEDES, THE SARACEN KNIGHT 108 “Faugh!” cried the knight. “Thought, word, and act Confirm me. I have proved the quest Impossible. I break the pact. Back to the gilded halls, confessed A recreant! Achieved or not, This task hath earned a foison—rest. In Caerlon and Camelot Let me embrace my fellow-men ! To buss the wenches, pass the pot, Is now the enviable lot Of Palamede the Saracen!”

THE EQUINOX is non-existent. Each man is, as it were, a thought in an universal brain, each thought jarring against the next and prolonging the dream. As each individual thought dies it enters Nibbana and ceases to be, and eventually when all thoughts die the dream passes and Nibbana wakes.* This bad dream seems to be caused by a separateness of Subject and Object which means Sorrow; when sleep vanishes this separateness vanishes with it, things assume their correct proportion and may be equated to a state of bliss or Non- Sorrow. Thus we find …

To make anyone happy there is a pleasure for you! And above all, a person at whom I can laugh. Think of Yeats, or Noyes, or MasefieldJove! that would be funny!

…he illusions that I have made in the Search for Adonai, that I am become the vilest of them all! A strange and unpleasant experience. My thought suddenly transmuted itself into a muscular cry, so that my legs gave a violent jerk. This I expect is at bottom the explanation of the Bhuchari—Siddhi. A very bad form of uncontrolled thought. I was on the edge 01 sleep; it woke me. The fact is, all is over! I am done! I have tried for the Great Initiation and I have failed; I am swept away into strange hells. Lord Adonai! let the fires be informing; le…

match the active thought of controlling the minute muscular movement against the passive thought of easing the irritation and disturbance. 17. Now I do not believe that there are any rules for doing this that will be any use to you. There are innumerable little tricks that you might try; only it is, as in the case of the posture itself, rather better if you invent your own tricks. I will only mention one: roll the tongue back towards the uvula, at the same time let the eyes converge towards an imaginary point in the centre of the forehead. Ther…

…directed to attain this end, and forms a magnificent gymnasium for those who are not already finished mental athletes. By act, word, and thought, both in quantity and quality, the one object of the ceremony is being constantly indicated. Every fumigation, purification, banishing, invocation, evocation, is chiefly a reminder of the single purpose, until the supreme moment arrives and every fibre of the body, every force-channel of the mind, is strained out in one. overwhelming rush of the Will in the direction desired. Such is the real purport o…

…find when I can borrow an Æneid.2 The sense is of old leaves swept into the dusty corners of the mind, no part of the main current of my thought ; yet curious, not altogether bad, in a sense worth saving. Maybe I had done better to entitle the book “ Resurrec- tion Pie ” ; but all’s one.3 They are not completed, and never will be, till they fall under the eyes of the literary heir of the Chicago Professor who rewrote Keats. I cannot complete them, for the men are verily dead who wrote them ;4 yet respect for their memory forbids me to destroy t…

So the ox plants his foot, and so the car wheel follows hard behind. All that we are from mind results; on mind is founded, built of mind; Who acts or speaks with righteous thought him happiness doth surely find. So failing not the shadow falls for ever in its place assigned. The Pantacle is then in a sense identical with the Karma or Kamma of the Magician. The Karm…

In the world of ideas, each thought possessed a necessary relation with each other thought; each such relation is of course a thought in itself; each such ray is itself a star. It is here that logical difficulty first presents itself. The seer has a direct perception of infinite series. Logically, therefore, it would appear as if the entire space must be filled up with a homogeneous blaze of light. This however is not the case. The space…
