Magick Without Tears

PROPHECY 263 "It's a bit hard of you to wish another war on us," I said to Crowley. "Oh, but if everyone will only do as I tell them to, " he replied, "the catastrophe can be averted. " Somehow I fear they won 't. "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law." Then I issued a prospectus for the book , giving the facts as to previous publications and their results, and leaving blank a space after "The Fourth Publication" to wait the event. The First Publication nine months before the outbreak of the Balkan War, which broke up the Near East. When this was done it was done without proper perfection. Its commands as to how the work ought to be done were not wholly obeyed . . .. Yet, even so, the intrinsic power of the truth of the Law and the impact of publication were sufficient to shake the world, so that a critical war broke out, and the minds of men were moved in a mysterious manner. The Second Publication nine months before the outbreak of the World War, which broke up the West. The second blow was struck by the re-publication of the Book in September, 1913, and this time . .. caused a catastrophe to civilisation. At this hour, the Master Therion is concealed, collecting his forces for a final blow. When The Book of the Law and its Comment is published . .. in perfect obedience to the instruction . . . the result will be incalculably effective. The event will establish the Kingdom of the Crowned and Conquering Child over the whole earth, and all men shall bow to the Law, which is love under will.
