THE MESSAGE OF THE MASTER THERION This is to be taken as meaning that while Will is the Law, the nature of that Willis Love. But this Love is as it were a by-product of that Will; it does not contradict or supersede that Will; and if apparent contradiction should arise in any crisis, it is the Will that will guide us aright. Lo, while in the Book of the Law is much of Love, there is no word of Sentimentality. Hate itself is almost like Love! Fighting most certainly is Love! “As brothers fight ye!” All the manly races of the world understand thi…

NEKAM, ADONAI! THE PrEcCEPTOR’S ADDRESS TO HIS TEMPLARS To Sir James Thomas Windram Love, the saviour of the world, Must be scourged with many rods, From its place in heaven hurled, Outcast before all the gods. Love, that cleanses all, must be Washed in its own blood and tears, Heir of all eternity Made the martyr of the years. Love, that fills the void with bliss, Staunches the eternal flood, Heals the hurt of the abyss, Blanches, beggared of its blood. Love, that wears the laurel crown, Turns to gain the lees of loss, That from shame retrieve…

…d and dead, or lightly held. This may then pass into dryness, or into repulsion. Then at last by pure persistence in that Act of Will to Love, shall Love himself arise, as a bird, as a flame, as a song, and the whole Soul shall wing a fiery path of music unto the Ultimate Heaven of Possession. Now in this method there are many roads and ways, some simple and direct, some hidden and mysterious, even as it is with human love whereof no man hath made so much as the first sketches for a Map: for Love is infinite in diversity even as are the Stars. …

Walk forth with us in Light and Life and Love and Liberty, taking our pleasure as Kings and Queens in Heaven and on Earth. The sun is arisen; the spectre of the ages has been put to flight. “The word of Sin is Restriction,” or as it has been otherwise said on this text: That is Sin, to hold thine holy spirit in! Go on, go on in thy might; and let no man make thee afraid. Love is the law, love under will. 52

…m disturbed by outside influences— this is indeed something. Another important thing I would mention. I have an intense longing for more Love, a sort of unsatisfied craving to embrace people, particularly women, and sometimes natural things (this was not meant for sar- casm) such as the earth, the grass, etc. I do not think I expect and ask the love of others so much as I feel the need of entire freedom to love without barrier or restraint; but always there seems a something holding me back, invisible, formless, but of great strength, so that I…

DE LEGE LIBELLVM In the achievement of Love are two principles, that of mastering and that of yielding. But the nature of these is hard to explain, for they are subtle, and are best taught by Love Himself in the course of the Operations. But it is to be said generally that the choice of one formula or the other is automatic, being the work of that inmost Will which is alive within you. Seek not then to determine consciously this decision, for herein true instinct is not liable to err. But now I end, without further words: for in our Holy Books …

THE EQUINOX By this we understand that the Universal Will is of the na- ture of Love. Now Love is the enkindling in ecstacy of Two that will to become One. It is thus an Universal formula of High Magick. For see now how all things, being in sorrow caused by dividuality, must of necessity will Oneness as their medi- cine. Here also is Nature monitor to them that seek Wisdom at her breast: for in the uniting of elements of opposite polari- ties is there a glory of heat, of light, and of electricity. Thus also in mankind do we behold the spiritual…

…e. For what is pleasant is assimilated easily and without ecstacy: it is in the transfiguration of the loathsome and abhorred into The Beloved that the Self is shaken to the root in Love. Thus in human love also we see that mediocrities among men mate with null women: but History teacheth us that the supreme masters of the world seek ever the vilest and most horrible creatures for their concubines, overstepping even the limiting laws of sex and species in their necessity to transcend normality. It is not enough in such natures to excite lust or…

There is an ecstacy of pure Knowledge, and another of pure Love. And this Love is the force that uniteth things diverse, for the con- templation in Light of their Oneness.

THE EQUINOX us men and women: “Come forth, O children, under the stars, and take your fill of love! Iam above you and in you. My ecstasy is in yours. My joy is to see your joy.” Later She explains the mystery of sorrow: “For I am divided for love’s sake, for the chance of union.” “This is the creation of the world, that the pain of division is as nothing, and the joy of dissolution all.” It is shown later how this can be, how death itself is an ecstasy like love, but more intense, the reunion of the soul with its true self. And what are the con…

Then in the Way of Love Evil appears as “all that which tends to prevent the Union of any two things.” Thus the Book of the Law sayeth, under the figure of the Voice of Nuit: “take your fill and will of love as ye will, when, where and with whom ye will! But always unto me.” For every act of Love must be “under Will,” that is, in accordance with the True Will, which is not to rest content with things par- tial and transitory, bu…
