Thelemic Libers PDF

Ok guys, so I've been out for a long time but I'm here to update this post and project.

Here is a link [REMOVED BY ADMINISTRATOR FOR VIOLATION OF FORUM RULES, WARNING ISSUED] to a PDF version of the entire project in one file, fully bookmarked and indexed!! Enjoy that.

Here is a link [REMOVED BY ADMINISTRATOR FOR VIOLATION OF FORUM RULES, WARNING ISSUED] to a folder containing all the PDF files individually.

I'm aware that a couple of the files may be false copies. I'm not here to debate the legitimacy of them.

Again, I state my concern: This site doesn't let you access them unless you log in. I am highly resistant to pointing people do download sites that require creating trackable identities.

People can/should make their own decisions, of course. As an IT security professional, this is exactly the type of site that concerns me the most.

Besides, the stuff is all available in other sites given in the Links section.

You're doing something wrong. They're accessible without a login. Also, every file is viewable without a download except the compilation which is too large for google drive to preview.

Thought you had got to be logged in to Google (GMail or Google+, etc) to view docs on Google Drive, but you don't. Looks like these are viewable without a login.

This is very cool to have all in one nicely organized spot like this. The combined text neatly bookmarked is also nice to have. Thanks for taking the time and effort to do this.

This has quickly become my go-to reference document. Thanks you immensely for compiling this.

ADMINISTRATOR NOTICE
I have removed the links above and issued a notice. I only yesterday had time to review what was accessible in the download, and it violates some of the earliest and most fundamental rules of this forum: We neither tolerate nor participate in the disclosure of confidential material from any living order.

I am actually embarrassed that it took me this long to notice and that I unwittingly participated in these disclosures. (I can't do everything as fast or as thoroughly as I'd like). I would ask that everyone who got a copy from the link on this site simply delete what they downloaded, though I'm not so naïve as to think everyone will.

Here are the main offenses:

You have published confidential initiation rituals of A.'.A.'.. These absolutely fuck with their usefulness for anyone who ever decides to go through the A.'.A.'. system. I refer to Liber 28 and Liber 120 in particular.
You have published confidential O.T.O. papers of the VII°, VIII°, and IX°. This site will not participate in their distribution or disclosure.
Additionally, there is a lot of stuff there that is fraudulent. (It goes far beyond casual error, because you have put A.'.A.'. imprimaturs on items that the Chiefs of A.'.A.'. have never authorized.) Liber 17 is a fraud. Many other papers included may be of value on their own, but are misrepresented as A.'.A.'. official instructions.
You may have violated copyright. This site will not participate in the violation of legitimate copyright. For example, I haven't examined Book 4 to see what edition you have mounted. There are other examples.

When I have time (sheesh!) I need to go back through this thread and see what else needs deleting to keep this site ethical. If I missed a relevant link, please let me know so I can clean it up.

I understand a lot of work and care went into your "best effort" packaging of this stuff. However, it verges on the criminal - theft and unjustified disclosure. The worst theft IMO is ripping people off from ever being able to pass through the A.'.A.'. system as designed by publishing things that significantly damage the ability of the system to operate as designed (e.g., one of the most fundamental tests of the Probationer is completely broken - removed from consideration - by what you have published.)

The word of sin is restriction. All the material is available on the Internet or at many major libraries around the world, I still don't get why any group thinks any of the papers are secret as they are not but it is Jim's forum so his rules apply. It does loose it's effect a little or some of the surprise elements are very much lost if you know they are coming but I think it's up to each person to decide if they wish to read or not read before. I had copies (and many various versions) of all the man of earth rituals before I did them, I still "discovered" the secret of the sanctuary of the gnosis no problem (verified in more ways than one by many IX' s). I find it amusing to be honest that so many people in various groups are happy to publish and discuss masonic "secrets" yet complain when their own "secrets" are let out!! (Steps and signs in liber xv but please don't use your OTO ones in public as they are our secrets) Again I respect your wish not to have them on your forum Jim but that's about it to be honest. I think people are old enough to make the call if they should read or not read ritual before they do them.
Liber 77
Just not on the forum guys.

People can make their own choices, of course. However, C.O.T. and T.'.O.'.T.'. won't participate in copyright breach or the disclosure of any living Order's private material. (I wouldn't tolerate the Masonic words being published here either.)

I know that. After re-reading my post this evening it sounds a little arrogant and even maybe aggressive. Not my intension.
