…ance; and it did not disturb me. There was a somewhat tentative smile on the face of the man who had spoken. I recognised him instantly, though I had not seen him since we were at school together. The man’s name was Elgin Feccles. He had been in the mathematical sixth when I was in the lower school. In my third term he had become head prefect ; he had won a scholarship at Oxford—one of the best things going. Then, without a moment’s warning, he had 63
… So therefore the Formula of the Rosy Cross availeth no more in the Highest. Now then in the Pentagram are two Lines that invoke Spirit, though they lead not thereunto, and they are the Works of Hé with Hé, and of Yod with Vau. Of these twain the former is a Work Magical of the Nature of Music, and it draweth down the Fire of the HIGHER by Seduction or Bewitchment. And the latter is a Work opposite thereunto, whose Effect forumlateth itself by direct Creation in the Sphere of its Purpose and Intent. But there remain yet two of the Eight Works, …

Tell us about your friend, though! from Basil. “I hitched it into verse and good,” said the big man. But as it ’s a tale with a moral, please imagine yourselves to be a set of children. I wrote it for them. Here goes!

8.20. 8.35. 9.0. 9-35- THE EQUINOX The thought too, is wanderingall over the world. Since the last entry, very likely, the beast has not thought even once of Adonai. The Reading of the Ritual has done much service, though things are still far from calm. Yet the mighty flood of the Chittam is again rolling its tremendous tide toward the sea—the Sea of annihilation. Amen. Returning home, with his eyes fixed on the supreme glory of the Moon, in his heart and brain invoking Adonai, he hath now entered into his little chamber, and will prepare all thi…
…vable creatures, so handsome and graceful, so perfect in all their proportions, my pity was set in motion ; and soon love was to follow, thought I. Though of a slightly dark complexion, they were none the less remarkably pretty, and very near the finest type of white womanhood. Alas! their beauty was a trap, their sweet voices were meant to delude me; the sirens had been sent by those who could not but mean persecution against me. I found this out as soon as I understood them. They wanted my flowers. With a supple and harmonious gesture, they s…

Though both Mohammedans and Jews are circumcised, there is a difference in the technique of the operation which would enable an expert to tell at a glance to which religion a man belonged. It is alleged by some that the toughening and har- dening of the glans penis which results from the operation predisposes to sodomy, inasmuch as a greater intensity of friction is required to produce emission. True, but a mo…

He then either (a) becomes a Brother of the Left Hand Path or, (b) is stripped of ali his attainments and of him- self as weil, even of his Holy Guardian Angel, and becomes a Babe of the Abyss, who, having transcended the Reason, does nothing but grow in the womb of its mother.

Said the goat: “Though I be not an ox, yet am I a sword.” “ Masked, O God !” cried the Adept. “ Verily, an thou hadst not sacrificed—” There was silence. And under the Goat’s throne was a rainbow 2 of seven colours: our Father fitted himself as an arrow to the string (and the string was waxed well, dipped in a leaden pot wherein boiled amber and wine) and s hot through stormy heavens.

… circle opening out into the line.” The Christian dogma is really identical, for both conceive of a previous and eternally existing God, though the Qabalists hedge by describing this latent Deity as ‘‘ Not.” Later com- mentators, notably the illustrious? Mac- Gregor-Mathers, have explained this Not as ‘‘negatively-existing.”’ Profound as is my respect for the intellectual and spiritual attainments of him whom I am proud to have been permitted to call my master, Iam bound to express my view that when the Qabalists said Not, they meant Not, and n…
… On the other hand, his clairvoyance was hopelessly bad, so that he could not pass the examination for the Grade of Zelator of A.'. A.'. though in other points entitled to a much higher degree. One of his practical objects in visiting England was to ask me personally to get him over the stile. I did so. At the very first trial I enabled him to use his astral eyesight. Our joint work developed and we resolved to make a series of investigations of "The Watch Towers of the Elements", beginning with that of Fire. The {693} question arose: "Why does…
…these things are analytic . Thus gold must be reducible to the noumenon , and so disappear .) In the second proposition Kant says : That though there are synthetic judgements à posteriori , “ there are also others of an à priori certainty ,” which “ can never have their source solely ... in the principle of contradiction ” ( p . 13 ). “ Judgements of experience are always synthetic . It would be absurd to found an analytic judgement on experience ” (p . 14 ). [ Crowley at once answers , “ All judgements are founded on experience . This primary …

I am not to be content with little or with much; but only with the Ultimate Attainment. Apparently the method is just this; to store up—no matter how—great treasures of energy and purity, until they begin to do the work themselves (in the way that the Hindus call Sukshma). Just so the engineer—five feet six in his boots—and his men build the dam. The snows melt …

THE TEMPLE OF SOLOMON THE KING must be learnt from the Guru himself, and though, as we are told in the ‘“ Pradipika,” a theoretical study of crores of Shastras cannot throw any light upon it, yet nevertheless in the “Shiva Sanhita” the difficulty seems to be solved by standing on one’s head.* 10. Shakti Chalana Mudra. Let the wise Yogi forcibly and firmly draw up the goddess Kundalini sleeping in the Adhar lotus, by means of the Apana-Vayu. This is Shakti- Chalan Mudra. . . .t The “Hatha Yoga Pradipika” is very obscure on this Mudra, it says: A…
