Liber Aleph

LIBER ALEPH VEL CXI 142 El De Harmonia Voluntatis et Parcarum (Of the Harmony of Will and Destiny) HIS is the evident and final Solvent of the Knot Philosophical concerning Fate and Free Will, that it is thine own Self, omniscient and omnipotent, sublime in Eternity, that first didst order the Course of thine Orbit, so that the which befalleth thee by Fate is indeed the necessary Effect of thine own Will. These two, then, that like Gladiators have made War in Philosophy through these many Centuries, are one by the Love under Will which is the Law of Thelema. O my son, there is no Doubt that resol- veth not in Certainty and Rapture at the Touch of the Wand of our Law, as thou apply it with Wit. Do thou grow constantly in the assimilation of the Law, and thou shalt be made perfect. Behold, there is a Pageant of Triumph as each Star, free from Confusion, sweepeth free in his right Orbit; all Heaven acclaimeth thee as thou goest, transcendental in Joy and in Splendour; and thy Light is as a Beacon to them that wander afar, strayed in the Night.
