    How seriously is it taken by Thelemites? It's obviously not given equal credence with Liber AL -if it were it would be included in the book- but is it considered an auxiliary text or just discarded?

      I suppose that depends on the Thelemites.

      I certainly don't consider it an auxiliary text to CCXX in any sense. It's a product of Jack Parsons' personal work, better than many other examples and poorer than quite a few. I don't offhand know of anyone ranking it as in the same category as the Class A documents, though I suppose there are people who do so.

        An amusing compendium of egocentric hogwash. But not so amusing as his invocation of Bartzabel when 'ol Hubbard stole his girlfriend. 😆

        But highly informative: a manual of what not to do on one's way to Adeptship.
