THE EQUINOX the Qliphoth* with their twelve princes, who are the heads of the Evil of the twelve months of the year. to an end, oTM The Hierophant tells him: “ This cross em- braces, as you will see, Tiphereth, Net- Hod and Yesod, resting upon Malkuth.

THE EQUINOX bright glory, and stir the hearts of men with drunkenness. To worship me take wine and strange drugs whereof I will tell my prophet, & be drunk thereof! They shall not harm ye at all. It is a lie, this folly against self. The exposure of innocence is a lie. Be strong, o man! lust, enjoy all things of sense and rapture: fear not that any God shall deny thee for this. 23. I am alone: there is no God where I am. 24. Behold! these be grave mysteries; for there are also of my friends who be hermits. Now think not to find them in the fore…

THE EQUINOX Charity! word divine, sole word which makes God under- stood, word which contains a universal revelation! Spirit of charity, alliance of two words which are a complete solution and a complete promise! To what question, in fine, do these two words not find an answer? What is God for us, if not the spirit of charity? What is orthodoxy? Is it not the spirit of charity which refuses to discuss faith lest it should trouble the confidence of simple souls, and disturb the peace of universal communion ?? And the universal church, is it any …

THE EQUINOX Kerubim of Ezekiel might perhaps engage your individual attention.” The truth is, it does not matter one rap by what name you christen the illusions of this life, call them substance, or ideas, or hallucinations, it makes not the slightest difference, for you are in them and they in you whatever you like to call them, and you must get out of them and they out of you, and the less you consider their names the better; for name-chang- ing only creates unnecessary confusion and is a waste of time. Let us therefore call the world a serie…

THE EQUINOX neither Flame nor Air; nor the vast Aether nor the Infinity of Thought, not Utter Void nor the co-existence of Cognition and Non-cognition is there:—not this World nor Another, neither Sun nor Moon. That, Brothers, I declare unto you as neither a Becoming nor yet a Passing-away:—not Life nor Death nor Birth; Unlocalised, Unchanging and Uncaused:—That is the end of Sorrow.* Gotama therefore had to hedge. Unquestionably the Soul- idea must go, but in order to account for the Universal law of Causation Karma must remain, and further, s…

THE EQUINOX On the 7th of March P. left Calcutta for Benares, arriving there on the following day, and lodging at the Hétel de Paris he continued his concentration practices. In his diary on this date he writes: “The fear of the future seems practically destroyed, and during the last six months I have worked well. This removes all possible selfishness of incentive (after 4% years) Maitri-Bhavana is left, and that alone. Aum!” At Benares he visited the temples, and had a long conver- sation with Sri Swami Swayam Prakashananda Maithila; and then …

THE EQUINOX The circumference of the island is somewhat over fifteen miles, and the first discoveryI made was that of a broken- down sailing-boat, which the niggers had never dared approach since the wreck that brought it there. In the cabins I found gunpowder in large quantities, rum, matches, and tobacco; Thad all this carried to my oasis, together with a cannon ; and when the negroes had heard the voice of this powerful engine my authority was established on the most solid basis. This event helped me to recover the coffin, and I am glad to s…

THE EQUINOX beak of the other has devoured the corpse. Therefore is my flag white, because I have left nothing upon the earth alive. I have feasted myself on the blood of the saints, but I am not suspected of men to be their enemy, for my fleece is white and warm, and my teeth are not the teeth of one that teareth flesh; and mine eyes are mild, and they know me not the chief of the lying spirits that the Father of all sent forth from before his face in the beginning. (His attribution is salt; the wolf mercury, and the raven sulphur.) Now the la…

THE EQUINOX But this Dryness hath its virtue, in that thereby the Soul is purged of those things that impeach the Will: for when the drouth is altogether perfect, then is it certain that by no means can the Soul be satisfied, save by the Accomplishment of the Great Work. And this is in strong souls a stimulus to the Will. It is the Furnace of Thirst that burneth up all dross within us. But to each act of Will is a particular Dryness correspond- ing: and as Love increaseth within you, so doth the torment of His absence. Be this also unto you for…

THE EQUINOX “Oh no, you do not!” cries the Materialist, “you certainly do exist; but not alone, for I am talking to you!” “Fool!” says the Idealist, ‘cannot you grasp the simple idea that you and your foolish argument are in fact part of me?” “But surely,” replies the Materialist, “you do not doubt that the world exists, that the Evolution of Man exists, that Judas McCabbage exists and is an actual fact.” “Granted they do exist,” sighs the Idealist, “‘so do the reflections of an ape’s face in a looking-glass, yes, they do exist, but not apart f…

THE EQUINOX I opened mine eyes, and all around me was as a dense fog; thus I returned into my body.” The vision being at an end, a thanksgiving was offered. No. 7. This vision was undertaken by P. for strength to aid his cousin, who was in distress. As in No. 5, it commenced with a prayer, a circle being drawn around the Skryer. “As I prayed, a feeling of drowsiness possessed me, and I found myself swinging backwards and forwards ; then after a little while I grew steady, and speedily ascended. As I soared up through the air, I saw above me a g…
