Throwing this one in for debate: the ego cannot love, feels no love, is not capable of love and does not have the equipement to love.

Love is something engendered elsewhere, but when ego proclaimes 'I love you', it is a lie of manipulation, or a declaration to satisfy a social convention. It is something to be expected to say. But the ego does not love.

Any arguments to the contrary?

Love is the Law. Love under Will."

Agreed in that Love cannot derive from Ego.
Though I believe Egoists are capable of love.

I've found Yoga breathing essential to doing any serious magical work. After learning the basics of Kundalini Yoga my abilities and boundaries quickly expanded beyond what I though possible.

The gist of it involves moving the energy up the ladder of your Chakras. Start at the base and awaken the energy and using breathing and focus direct it up to your 3rd eye or crown.

Bottom line, if you don't know Yoga breathing, you're missing out on one of the most useful tools in magick work. Take the time to learn it, it's not that difficult or involved.
