…n and useless to its further development. (Thus “Suckling” is the formula of an infant : when teeth appear it marks a new “Aeon”, whose “Word” is “Eating”). A Magus can therefore only appear as such to the world at inter- vais of some centuries ; accounts of historical Magi, and their Words, are given in Liber Aleph. This does not mean that only one man can attain this Grade in any one Aeon, so far as the Order is concerned. A man can make Personal progress équivalent to that of a “Word of an Aeon”; but he will identify himself with the current…

…ce who gave the name of Amalantrah. On Sunday, February 24, 1918, at 9*3° P* m-, The Master Therion asked Amalantrah if he could use the Word OHPION as if it were Hebrew, with the idea of gettins; further information as to the mystic meaning of the Word.

He is sworn to accept this Grade in the presence of a witness, and to express its nature in word and deed, but to withdraw Himself at once within the veils of his natural manifestation as a man, and to keep silence during his human life as to the fact of his attainment, even to the other members of the Order.

E. g. “The Word of the Law is 0EAHMA” (Will) ; this Word has the value of 93. “Love is the law, love under will.” Love, Aya-ruy), likeBsXyjua, adds to 93. AIWAZ itself adds to 93.1 This was ail strange to the scribe; yet years later he discovered the “Lest Word” of one of his own Orders; it was 93 also. The Word of His most holy Order proved equally to count up not entirely beyond possibility. This theory is telepathy. One may postulate that the solution of his problem existed in the subconscious minci of the Master Therion or in that of His se…

Thus in this section the adept utters articulately so far as words may, what his Angel is to Himself. He says this, with his Scin-Laeca wholly withdrawn into his physical body, con- straining His Angel to indwell his heart.
