…bled, Step two abreast, the way winds narrowly !) Not a whit troubled Back to his studies, fresher than at first, Fierce as a dragon He (soul-hydroptic with a sacred thirst) Sucked at the flagon.” 234

…dle." Edgar bowed and went. He could not trust himself to speak: the Love that was the whole being of the Brother melted the snow of his soul. He loved. Not Ida, not the world, not anything. It was pure love, love without object, love as love is in itself. He did not love; he was Love. But he strode straight back to Ida Pendragon. Before she left her bed, they were married. A week later they drove through the cool swift air to the South; and there, among the vines, they learnt how—once in a century—the phoenix Passion may rise from the fire of V…

THE EQUINOX the double magnetization of it to the human body. The soul, by acting on this light through its volitions, can dissolve it or coagulate it, project it or withdraw it. It is the mirror of the imagination and of dreams. It reacts upon the nervous system, and thus produces the movements of the body. This light can dilate itself indefinitely, and communicate its reflec- tions at considerable distances; it magnetizes the bodies submitted to the action of man, and can, by concentrating itself, again draw them to him. It can take all the f…

…he Eight Works, namely, the straight Aspiration of the Chiah or Creator in thee to the Crown, and the Surrender of the Nephesh or Animal soul to the Possession thereof; and these be he twin principal Formulae of the Final Attainment, being Archetypes of the Paths of Magick (the one) and Mysticism (the other) unto the End. From each of these Eight Works is derived a separate Mode of practical Use, each after his Kind; and it should be well for thine Instruction if thou study upon hese my Words, and found upon them a System.

…rmic, because it is events in the past which give occasion for trouble. 32. Be of sure foot, O Candidate. In Kshanti’s essence bathe thy Soul; for now thou dost approach the Portal of that name, the gate of fortitude and patience. We now come to the third gate. Notice that this is a further confusion of the Portal with the Key. As previously said, patience here implies rather self-control, a refusal to accept even favours until one is ready for them. 33. Close not thine eyes, nor lose thy sight of Dorje (the Svastika);Méra’s arrows ever smite t…
…mple. 61. Till then, a task far harder still awaits thee: thou hast to feel thyself ALL-THOUGHT, and yet exile all thoughts from out thy SOUL. The discourse again reverts to another phase of this task of Vairaga. It is just as in the ‘Earth-Bhavana,’ where you have to look at a frame of earth, and reach that impres- sion of Earth in which is no Earthly quality, “that earth which is not earth,” as the Qabalah would say. So on this higher plane you must reach a quintessence of thought, of which all thoughts are perhaps debased images, but which i…
… is as the worms that {east upon my corpse. . . . Adonail Adonai! my Lord Adonai! indeed, Thou hast forsaken me. Nay! thou liest, O weak soul! Abide in the meditation; unite all thy symbols into the form of a Lion, and be lord of thy jungle, travelling through the servile Universe even as Man the Lion very lordly, the Sun in His strength that travelleth over the heaven of Nu in His bark in the mid-career of Day. For all these thoughts are vain; there is but One thought, though that thought be not yet born—He only is God, and there is none other…
…, magnetize and hold on to her? Yes, if you will allow me to say so, I, my friends, if you do not, can plainly see her, The same undying soul of earth’s, activity’s, beauty’s, heroism’s expression, Out from her evolutions hither come, ended the strata of her former themes, Hidden and cover’d by to-day’s, foundation of to-day’s, Ended, deceas’d through time, her voice by Castaly’s fountain Silent the broken-lipp’d Sphynx in Egypt, silent all these century-baffling tombs, Ended for aye the epics of Asia’s, Europe’s helmeted warriors, ended the pr…
But need I say more? These few verses, briefly and with more restraint that I feel able to use, sum up my thesis. A SLIM GILT SOUL.* Few men are given, ‘twixt heaven and hell, ‘To play one part supremely well. On all time's tablets there are few Who make a first-rate show of two, While those who perfectly play three We knew not, until you were he. For what were lovelier on the lawn Than you, pearl-naked to the dawn, Wrapped in a scarlet dressing-gown Not thirty miles from London town, The " observed of all observers ""—save That Scotland Yard, …
…paid; and the debt of gratitude is ours. Morningside was pleased; he thhought the compliment sincere Bowling understood something of the soul which had escaped him until that moment; the Mahathera Phang remained in his superb indifference. Lisa addressed the Master: "I'm afraid I haven't paid; and I've had a perfectly wonderful dinner!" Simon Iff replied with weight: "My dear young lady, you are not a guest — you are a candidate." [89] Suddenly conscious of herself, she blanched, and became rigid in her chair. Simon Iff bade farewell to the thr…
… the informing syllogism ! The premiss major. Life at best Is but a sorry sort of jest ; At worst, a play of fiends uncouth, Mocking the soul foredoomed to pain. In any case, its run must range Through countless miseries of change. So far, no farther, gentle youth ! The mind can see. So much, no more. So runs the premiss major plain ; Identical, the Noble truth First of the Buddha’s Noble Four ! The premiss minor. I deplore These limitations of the mind. I strain my eyes until they’re blind, And cannot pierce the awful veil * In Memoriam. + All…
THE EQUINOX 39. Thou hast fastened the fangs of Eternity in my soul, and the Poison of the Infinite hath consumed me utterly. 40. I am become like a luscious devil of Italy; a fair strong woman with worn cheeks, eaten out with hunger for kisses. She hath played the harlot in divers palaces; she hath given her body to the beasts. 41. She hath slain her kinsfolk with strong venom of toads; she hath been scourged with many rods. 42. She hath been broken in pieces upon the Wheel; the hands of the hangman have bound her unto it. 43. The fountains of…
