The Law is for All

The Comment Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. The study of this Book is forbidden. It is wise to destroy this copy after the first reading. Whosoever disregards this does so at his own risk and peril. These are most dire. Those who discuss the contents of this Book are to be shunned by all, as centres of pestilence. All questions of the Law are to be decided only by appeal to my writings, each for himself. There is no law beyond Do what thou wilt. Love is the law, love under will. The priest of the princes, 284

…se of the word. Let us consider some prominent examples of such System. We may observe that a common mode of divination is to inquire of books by placing the thumb at random within the leaves. The Books of the Sybil, the Works of Vergil, and the Bible hâve been used ’very frequently for this purpose. For theoretical justification, one must assume that the book employed is a perfect représentation of the Universe. But even if this were the case, it is an inferior form of construction, because the only reasonable conception of the Cosmos is mathe…

As fine gold that is beaten into a diadem for the fair queen of Pharaoh, as great stones that are cemented together into the Pyramid of the ceremony of the Death of Asar, so do thou bind together the words and the deeds, so that in all is one Thought of Me thy delight Adonai. 59.

The Law is for All

… whole, however little aware the editor might be of the effect of his editing. In this vol­ ume I have allowed certain passages from The Book of the Law to stand by themselves without any comment; for it has some­ times seemed better to leave the reader to make what interpreta­ tion he can of his own than to risk confusing and delaying his apprehension of the message of the Book as a whole. The Book of the Law has already been published without a Commentary;1 but, if it is to reach and influence a wider public, a Commentary, which must often be…

Uncover yourselves! for the Love of My Son! Who are they that trouble thee? Who are they that slew thee? O Light! Come thou, who art joined with me to bruise the Dragon’s head.
