For OUT is Love and Wisdom and Power. '? Get OUT. If thou hast T already, first get UT.1° Then get O. And so at last get OUT.
… scented nenuphars Give hope—oh ! monolith ! oh house of lies ! We change and change and fade, strange avatars In all the skies. III One way sets free. That way is not to tread Through fire or earth or spirit, air or sea. That secret is not gathered of the dead. On way sets free. Not to desire shall lead to not to be. There is no hope within, none overhead, None by the chance of fate’s august decree. It is a path where tears are ever shed. There is no joy—is that a path for me ? Yea ! though I track the ways of utmost dread, One way sets free.

THE BOOK OF WISDOM OR FOLLY 25 f De Voluntate Ultima (Of the Final Will) AY not then that this Way is contrary to Nature, and that in Simplicity of Satisfaction of thy Needs is perfection of thy Path. For to thee, who hast aspired, it is thy Nature to perform the Great Work, and this is the final Dissolution of the Cosmos. For though a Stone seem to lie still on a Mountain Top, and have no care, yet hath it an hidden Nature, a Task Ineffable and Stupendous; namely, to force its Way to he Centre of Gravity of the Universe, and also to burn up it…

…dog!” said the great man. “ But the funny thing is that 1 am in trouble too.” I am sorry.”? 0111װ ”I wonder if you could help. It’s this way. Sometimes I twiddle my thumbs so—we call that the plus direction: and sometimes so—the minus direction. Now I lost count years and years ago; and so whichever way I twiddle, I may be getting further and further from equality. Then how—I ask you l—may man attain to the Universal Equilibrium?” “Wouldn’t it be safer not to twiddle at all?” suggested Rolles meekly. “ Inglorious youth ! ” retorted the Brother.…

THE BOOK OF WISDOM OR FOLLY 29 Ag De Via Inertiæ (Of the Way of Inertia) F the Way of the Tao I have already written to thee, o my Son, but I further instruct thee in this Doc- trine of doing everything by doing nothing. I will first have thee to understand that the Universe being as above said an Expression of Zero under the Figure of the Dyad, its Tendency is continually to release itself from that strain by the Marriage of Opposites whenever they are brought into Contact. Thus thy true Nature is a Will to Zero, or an Inertia, or Doing Nothin…
KE@AAH 20 THE WAY TO SUCCEED—AND THE WAY TO SUCK EGGS! This is the Holy Hexagram. Plunge from the height, O God, and interlock with Man! Plunge from the height, O Man, and interlock with Beast ! The Red Triangle is the descending tongue of grace; the Blue Triangle is the ascending tongue of prayer. This Interchange, the Double Gift of Tongues, the Word of Double Power—ABRAHA- DABRA!—is the sign of the GREAT WORK, for the GREAT WORK is ac- complished in Silence. And behold is not that Word equal to Cheth, that is Cancer, whose Sigil is 3? 86
…octrine has been lost or misinterpreted, and it is most needful to restore it. For this Tao is the true Nature of Things, being itself a Way or Going, that is, a kinetic and not a static Conception. Also He taught this Way of Harmony in Will, which I myself have thought to show thee in this little book. So then this Tao is Truth, and the Way of Truth, and therefore was He Logos of His Æon, and His true Name or Word was Tao. i
…ose one day!" "I'm afraid I, too, like danger and excitement!" cried Lisa. "I'm afraid you do! However, since Brother Cyril asks it, the Way of the Tao shall be trodden so far as this is possible: What would Brother Cyril do?" "I should take the Magic Sword, make the appropriate symbols, and invoke the Names Divine appurtenant thereto: the Thing, shrivelled and blasted, would go back to those that sent it, screaming in agony, cursing at the gods, ready to turn even on its employers, that they might wail with it in torment." "One of the best num…
…hy holy name ! Av6 Maria ! Tannhauser. Those words that saved me ! Shepherd-boy. Pray, your blessing, sirs ! I worship Mary in my simple way. And see Her name in all the starry host, And Jesus crucified on every tree For me ! God speed you to the House of God ! The Eldest Pilgrim. The Blessing of the Virgin on your head ! The Youngest Pilgrim. What make you, sir, so downcast ? Come with us Who taste all happiness in uneasiness. Hunger and thirst, in His sweet Name — Tannhauser. Ah no! I have been shown another way than yours ! I am too old in t…
AMBERGRIS 37 I led her the beautiful way To the land where the Winds lie between. So still lingers sun upon sea ; Still twilight draws down to the world ; The light of my spirit is she ; The soul of her love is in me ; Lithe kisses with music are curled. Like light on the meadows we dwell ; Like twilight clings heart unto heart ; Like midnight the depth of the spell Our love weaves, and stronger than hell The guards of our palace of art. We are one as the dew that is drawn By the sun from the sea : we are curled In curves of delight and of dawn…
496 MAGICK WITHOUT TEARS How then are we to explore, and finally to interpret this intelligence? It seems to me that there are two ways and only two. Imagine for a moment that you are an orphan in the charge of a guardian, inconceivably learned from your point of view. Suppose therefore that you are puzzled by some problem suitable to your childish nature , your obvious and most simple way is to approach your guardian and ask him to enlighten you . It is clearly part of his function as guardian to do his best to help you. Very good, that is the…

… lest it soil the Higher. The Student is told to ‘guard’ the lower, that is to say he should protect and strengthen it in every possible way, never allowing it to grow disproportionately or to overstep its boundaries. 66. The way to final freedom is within thy SELF. In this verse we find the “SELF” identified with the Uni- verse. 67. That way begins and ends outside of Self. The Ego, i.e. that which is opposed by the non-Ego, has to be destroyed. 68. Unpraised by men and humble is the mother of all riv- ers, in Tirthika’s proud sight; empty the…
