…et! Sin? This is the sin of sins: Restriction . All boots from the one last ; all beautifully polished on parade; the March of Time will find not much but hobbling! More of this when I answer your letter (just in as I drew rein to read this over) about Education . Love is the law, love under will. Fraternally, 666 P.S. On reading this, I note that I passed over with deserved

I might find it hard to explain the ladys respi- ratory apparatus, but she could hardly account for the condition of her gigg and gut-end. A jammy proposition ! acquiesced the venal newsman. A pretty spunky, turdy, mess ! De mortuis nil nisi bonum ! insinuated the tempter. The reporter hesitated. Tuam nasam in meum anum immite ! laughed the Archbishop, and the pressman, like Messrs. Pond and Morrell …
…, dazzled with their mystic beauty , their harmony , and , above all , their intense human love . As the Editor says , those who fail to find religion in such poems must indeed be idiots , idiots who would bowdlerize Shake speare , Shelley , and Browning . Neither was their love a mere selfish gratification of the senses . Anxiously they waited to see “ whether the mother stood behind the bride ," falteringly he would not part with her till she held the key of the hereafter " ; and ultimately they resigned all for the sake of others : Even whil…
… life extinguisned, but knew that it was by annihilation, not by death. When I awoke out of the hasheesh state I was as over- whelmed to find myself still in existence as a dead man of the last century could be were he now suddenly restored to earth. For a while, even in perfect consciousness, I believed I was still dreaming, and to this dayI have so little lost the memory of that one demoniac toll, that while writing these lines I have put my hand to my forehead, hearing and feeling some- thing, through the mere imagination, which was an echo …

…a to express all that a man is . “ For example , he might be : 10 a +33125 b + 890 c + 800112 658 e +992 f + .. + + .n , and , if we can find the ratio of a : b : c : d : e:f : n, we can resolve the equation into a single term , and compare man and man .' It therefore follows that “ all states of conscious ness are single units , or time marks , by which we measure intervals .” So that Time is wholly and solely founded on experience , or response to stimulus ; and in no way on any à priori judgement as postulated by Kant . Berkeley has shown us…
… for the best; it took him a long while to realize this, but it is evident that soon afterwards his efforts produced some result; for we find an entry on Sunday, August 7th, 1910. “I have found (for a few moments) the Peace which passeth all understanding. Amen.” This was evidently the fore- shadowing of his first really notable result, the first Dawn- ing of L.V.X. which he experienced on August 29th. There is an entry on September 2nd, full of joy and gladness and wonder at his first Illumination; and then, three days later, he had evidently …
…austs his physical strength. It should cause him to grow hot ali over or to perspire violently, and it should so weaken him that he will find it difficult to remain standing. 6. It is a sign of success, though only by the student himself is it perceived, when he hears the name of the God vehemently roared forth, as if by the concourse of ten thousand thunders; and it should appear to him as if that Great Voice proceeded from the Universe, and not from himself. In both the above practices ail consciousness of anything but the God-form and name s…
…s law of parsimony, it is much simpler to say that the spirit of the bat had entered into her. (As I revise these pages for the press, I find myself constantly annoyed {380} by having to try to find long roundabout "rational" explanations for all the wonders I have seen and heard. It is silly, too, now that we are getting clear at last of the obsession of Victorian cocksure materialism --- science disguised as a fat hausfrau!) {381} 48 Life in the jungle has many incidents of a more frequent and less amusing type. One night, also in a baghla, I…
…ed that my love for her would make me forget my friendship, cancel my obligations and abrogate my affection. She was amazed and angry to find that my attitude to the Ape had not been altered in any way whatever by my liaison with her. She supposed the conventional stupidities, cruelties and crimes were laws of nature; not understanding the Law of Thelema and hankering after exclusive possession, she fell into a frenzy of mistrust and jealousy. It made things worse that I smilingly accepted her tantrums exactly as an alienist with the outbursts …
…mistaken for Sarasate or Paganini; for there will be discord and confusion of sound. So now, as we start upon the first visions of P. we find chaos piled on chaos, much struggling and noise, a roaring of wild waters in the night, and then finally, melody, silence and the communication of the mystic books of V.V.V.V.V. 301

…ul. We do not say this in the hope of convincing the scoffer, but only to guide the seeker. Courage and good hope to him; he will surely find, since we ourselves have found. The magical dogma is not that of the mediums. The mediums who dogmatize can teach nothing but anarchy, since their inspiration is drawn from a disordered exaltation. They are always predicting disasters; they deny hierarchical authority; they pose, like Vintras, as sovereign pontiffs. 224

…repeated constantly, but one should achieve it at least once—that it may bear witness to oneself that the skill is there. One might even find it advisable to practice it occasionally, to retain one’s confidence that one’s “right hand hath not lost its cunning.”1 2 On this point hear furthermore our Holy Books: 1 [Anthelme Brillat-Savarin (1755-1826), author of La physiologie du gout (1825).] 2 [See Psalms 137:5.] 3 “Liber LXV,” 1:45-46. 45.

St. Augustine can find no better symbols than El Haji to express his love for God. “ What is it then, that I love, O my God, when I love you ? It is not beauty of bodies, nor the glory which passes, nor the light which our eyes love ; it is not the va- ried harmony of sweet songs nor the aroma of per- fumes and sweet flowers, nor the voluptuous joys of carnal embraces. No, it is more than these that

Yea, thou tremblest, but from within; because of the holy spirit that is descended into thy heart, and shaketh thee as an aspen in the wind.

THE EQUINOX will be taught directly by the spirit of wisdom; but those who still need external advice and support will find this in the external organization of that society. In regard to the spiritual aspect of this secret order, one of the Brothers says— “Our community has existed ever since the first day of creation when the gods spoke the divine command: ‘Let there be light!’ and it will continue to exist till the end of time. It is the Society of the Children of Light, who live in the light and have attained immortality therein. In our sch…
