With my regards,
I need to ask you for a little guidance. I'm reading books about Thelema, Qabalah and Aleister Crowley, however there is no pattern in my study. Most of the time I got confused and regressed to where I start.
Would you please give me your advice about which book, which study to begin with? Any help is appreciated.

Well, you posted this in a section about my book Pearls of Wisdom. I honestly think it might be the very best place for you to start (and I'd think that if I hadn't written it). You can get the book from Amazon or from <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.thelema.org/publications">www.thelema.org/publications</a><!-- w -->

Agreed. The three zero chapters at the beginning of Pearls are, IMO, the single best introduction one can find.
While you're waiting for it to arrive, I might recommend:
the Introduction to Magick in Theory and Practice
hermetic.com/crowley/book-4/defs.htmlfollowed by
Book 4, pts. 1 & 2

100thmonkeypress.com/biblio/acrowley/books/book_4_part_2_1913/book_4_part_2_1913.htmDon't worry so much about all of his cross references to other works. You can dig into those later. But for a good basic overview of all the pieces, that should do you well.

Thanks for the advice and sorry for using wrong section for this post.

Not a problem. It seems you primarily wanted to discuss Pearls of Wisdom anyway
