MAGICK WITHOUT TEARS 
letter.) The theory appears to be that, although your effort to 
save yourself is successful, it is bound to create a disturbance 
of equilibrium elsewhere, with results equally disastrous. 
Even more so; it might be that to be eaten by a tiger is just 
what you needed in your career through the incarnations; at 
that moment there might well be a vacancy somewhere 
exactly where it will do most good to your Great Work. 
When you press on one spot, you make a corresponding bulge 
in another, as we often see a beautiful Lady, unhappy about 
her waist-line, adopt drastic measures, and transform herself 
into the semblance of a Pouter Puffin! 
In theory, I am particularly pleased about this Method, 
because it goes for everybody, requires no knowledge, no 
technical training, "no nuffin." All the same, it won't do for 
me, except in a much modified form, and in very special 
cases; because no course of action (or inaction) is conceivable 
that would do great violence to my nature. 
So let me worry along, please, with the accent on the 
"along"; I will grin and bear it, or, if it gets so bad that I 
can't do my Work, I will make the necessary effort to abate 
the nuisance, always most careful to do as little damage as 
possible to the main current of my total Energy. 
Love is the law, love under will. 
Yours fraternally,
