must convey a Iruth not known to any human mind, past or 
présent. Yet this Truth must be vérifiable. 
There îs but one document in the world which présents 
evidence that fui]y satisfies these conditions. This is 
LIBER AL vel LEGIS 
the Book of the Law 
of this New Aeon of Horus, the Crowned and Conquering 
Child, the Aeon whose Logos is The Beast 666, whose name in 
the Outer Order was Frater Perdurabo. 
The nature of the proof of the separate existence of praeter- 
human Intelligence, independent of bodily form, is extremely 
complicated. Its main divisions may be briefly enumerated. 
He telephoned a friend named Feilding at the latter’s house, and was 
answered b)' Mr. Feilding’s secretary, who said that his employer had left 
the house a few minutes previously, and could only be reached by 
telephoning a certain office in the City at between 11 o’clock and a quarter 
past. Frater Perdurabo had an appointment at il o’clock with a 
music-hall star, the place being the entrance to a theatre. In order to 
remind himself, he made a mental note that as soon as he saw the lady, he 
would raise his hand and say, before greeting her : “Remind me that I 
must téléphoné at once to Feilding”, when he met her. He did this, and 
she advanced toward Plim with the same gesture, and said in the same 
breath, “Remind me that I hâve to téléphoné to Tom Jones” —the name 
of a music-hall agent employed by her. 
It will be seen that there is here no question of any connection between 
the éléments of the coincidence. If a similar occurrence had taken place 
in the course of communication with an alleged spirit, it would hâve been 
regarded as furnishing a very high degree of proof of the existence of an 
independent intelligence. 
To make this clear, Jet me substitute the terms of the équation. Suppose 
two independent médiums, A and B, were to receive respectively at the 
same moment two messages, the first; “Ask B who wrote Hamlet”, the 
second; “Ask A the name of Shakespeare’s most famous tragedy.” The 
coincidence is here much simpler and less striking than the one recorded 
above, for there is no question of arriving at the identity by way of 
accidentai synonyms concealing their rational connection. Yet most students 
of Occult phenomena would admit that there was a strong presumption that 
a single intelligence had deliberately devised the two messages as a means 
of proving his existence.
