…rise: morality proscribes scandal. Every scandal is a turpitude. One is not indecent because one possesses organs which modesty does not name, but one is obscene when one exhibits them. Husbands, hide your domestic wounds; do not strip your wives naked before the laughter of the mob! Women, do not advertise the discomforts of the conjugal bed: to do so is to write yourselves prostitutes in public opinion. It needs a lofty degree of courage to keep conjugal faith; it isa pact of heroism of which only great souls can under- stand the whole extent…

The heroes—see their glad advance! Hath…

… coincidence, or telepathy outrages reason. But this was not all. Besides his Americanized signature "Samuel A. Jacob", he gave his true name: "SHMUEL Bar AIWAZ bie YACKOU de SHERABAD". I could hardly believe my eyes. Till that moment I had had no idea that Aiwass was anything but an artificial name, like Ahitha. I had tried to find a spelling for it, having never seen it written except in the English in The Book of the Law, but only heard it. I had decided on AIVAS = 78, the number of Mezla, the influence from the highest unity, and therefore …

KE@®AAH 12 THE SWAN" There is a Swan whose name is Ecstasy: it wingeth from the Deserts of the North; it wingeth through the blue; it wingeth over the fields of rice; at its coming they push forth the green. In all the Universe this Swan alone is motion- less: it seems to move, as the Sun seems to move; such is the weakness of our sight. they let me pass.

…o that of Shin itself. I thus interpret the word Yeheshuah as the descent of the Holy Spirit into the balanced forces of matter, and the name Yeheshuah is therefore that of a man made divine by the descent of the Holy Spirit into his heart, exactly as the name George means a farmer. This exegetical method is not a modern invention. When Jehovah selected a family to be the father of Israel, he changed the name HB:Mem-final HB:Resh HB:Bet HB:Aleph (243 = Abram) Father of Elevation into HB:Mem-final HB:Heh HB:Resh HB:Bet HB:Aleph (248 = Abraham) F…

The name of the first Hall is IGNORANCE— Avidyé. It is the Hall in which thou saw’st the light, in which thou livest and shalt die. These three Halls correspond to the Gunas: Ignorance, Tamas; Learning, Rajas; Wisdom, Sattvas.

I SEARCHED the world for life; at length I came Unto a gateway I could not pass through; And then I turned, calling upon the name Of you. And so you came to me: each dawn was new, And every sunset was a scarlet flame, And noon was glorious in gold and blue. So now I care not for my mystic shame; Love brings no fears, and life gives nought to rue, So I may sing unto the love and fame Of you. 131
