College of Thelema: Thelemic Education

A moment for the spinning globe to slow may be an expression of our collective Will.

In modern society people are constantly bombarded with information, rarely, if ever, granted the opportunity or taking it to process.

You are only restricted if you resist.

In the binding,
Straight jacket and gag;
I found freedom
Closing my eyes
To listen

It's just that some stars are dimmer than other stars, and some stars are bound to other stars, and some stars have planets that orbit them and some don't and we simply must accept that.

"This might seem off topic but I say it is not. This is actually an ample opportunity to discuss this topic. The value of one's ability to write coherently, in a manner that is as equally communicable to the reader as it is to the writer, is an indication of the type, kind, and quality of MIND behind the writing. So, with brother FiatYod I agree. Judge the messenger by the message.

The MIND, the SWORD, the ability of the mental faculties, is a required tool of magick. Its quality will determine the quality of the results. How the MIND works, what it accepts as evidence, what it calls research and study, what it practices and where it mispractices are all indicators of the results that should be expected. With brother FiatYod I agree.

Judge Internet Idiots as ye will."

This guy is rather challenging to judge. There are some videos and emails from which one can see that he does possess some knowledge and understanding of Qabalah, Magick, esoteric traditions from various places around the world, etc.
On the other hand, there are emails like the one regarding which I've created this topic...

On dual wings named vairagya and viveka we flew, in the blue...

We flew unto Ourselves; we flew unto that ever-present Night of peerless silence.

"Who art thou that dost float and fly and dive and soar in the inane? Behold, these many æons have passed; whence camest thou? Whither wilt thou go?"

"Rather, accept yourself and your mistakes as necessary for your growth. Forgive yourself. Nuit already accepts you as you are. There is no breach in that relationship."

That is grade A+ plus awesomness! Exactly, for what it's worth from my opinion.

"
The comparison between a Buddha and RHK is interesting."

RHK is EXTREMELY dynamic, outgoing, opposite-of-introverted. It is that aspect of Horus which embodies spiritual or magical results of that manner. Buddha sits and lets it all fade around him. RHK confronts it all until it is mastered and it falls around him, AND that means as everything that is not Hadit.

"And what do you mean by "Try to sell him candy"?"

I was being literal. There are lots of candies which serve as blessings. 😄

Some people say haykawss, but otherwise no. That said I suspect a Greek scholar might have something to say.

A door opened to me when I learned that Light and sound are the same thing just sped up or slowed down.

"I know that some Thelemites are Freemasons, even Crowley was (not sure if he left Freemasonry after he received the Law).
So when a Thelemite takes part in a Masonic ritual, and they speak of the Great Architect of the Universe, how should the Thelemite interpret it?

Thanks!"

If I personally was ever at a ritual or event and someone/organization spoke of some great architect......

I would recall that the origin of the word architect means "to weave or to fabricate"

If I was at a play dough building party and someone spoke of the great dough shaper

I would interpret it the same.

If I was over at Takambas house for tea and toast and he talked about how he grew the bergamot and ground the flour for my meal.......

Well I would interpret that as he knows the truth and the heart of building something real and important.

Gotta say bro....

Boffo was/is a new word for me!!

All that originaly came to mind

"If I remember correctly, some say that the Book of Abramelin was originally written in German, and others say it was written in Hebrew.
However, all the copies I could find online are in English.
Does any of you have a copy of it in German or in Hebrew? Where can I get it from?

Thanks"

This seems to be a bilingual Hebrew-German edition:

www.amazon.com/Abramelin-egyptischen-Offenbarungen-Abraham-g%C3%B6ttlichen/dp/3936149003/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1544499424&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=abramelin+the+mage+german"

Sounds promising, but there's no preview. I guess it's in German, with Hebrew words here and there (like many magick-related books in English use Hebrew when necessary).
Thanks!

I'm not sure I understand the question. It's simply a touchstone of the philosophy (or theosophy) behind reincarnation and expressing ALL the experiences available in the universe. Allegedly it is presumed that all the evidence supporting reincarnation also supports the notion that this reincarnation takes place via each "kingdom" (mineral, vegetable, animal (including I suppose striations of "higher animal" vs "lower animal" and so-forth), bodsitva I suppose would or could be next, Buddhahood maybe, prater-human alien transient secret chief maybe, deity maybe and on and on....

The Theosophists posit really strong arguments supporting a thesis of reincarnation as fundamental to their belief system, the teachings of the Rosicrucian's also tend to assume this very strongly. That's all I can say about it.

If it were seen in the Queen scale, as the rest of the attributions, yes.

Hod is Mercury, Speech, as the Logos is the Word. The passage identifies the Message with the Messenger. Crowley has made subtle comments about the importance of the Mercurial principle as being identified with the Highest...perhaps Had describing Hod in the King scale is the root of this conviction of his.

Even in the spelling of the two we get a similar situation to the differences symbolically between Ain and Ayin. Switch the Aleph for a Vau. Now there's no explicit link to Kether in the Word, implying that Hod is Had's method of action below Atziluth, and the chief method by which the Logos is communicated. He's speaking of himself in the third person but with all his dignities, such as being an Atziluthic principle, preserved.

This principle is what's allowing me to rationalize the logical gap we're speaking of presently.

Everyone will disagree with me, but, in actuality, truth, reality, the big cahoona, the Golden Dawn exists internally. The outer image of it is just a means to point one within.

After nearly a month, I've found the answer: the Qlippah that corresponds to Kether, Thaumiel (The Twins of God), is split in two.

"
Oh, I didn't know it was Crowley's comment, thank you for the correction! 😄
I'm not sure I got your point: do you mean that the words "spirit" and "intelligence" are to be taken as their "mundane" meanings?"

What we call them is nowhere near as important as what they can do. 😉 Solvitur ambulando.

Aye?

The eight and ninety do correspond to Cheth and Tzaddi. And the Hebrew word ץ‎ח (Cheth-Tzaddi) means arrow.

The rules are the rules of "art," and there is a tarot card with that title. And it corresponds to Sagittarius (the hunter, with a bow and arrow), and the path on the Tree of Life that is a metaphorical arrow pointing toward Tiphareth (across the bow made by the spheres of Netzach, Hod, Yesod and the paths of Peh, Tzaddi, and Resh).

The other name of the Art card is... Temperence. And the traditional symbol is an angel mixing water into wine.

So.. I would interpret the verse (for myself) to mean: choose to drink (or not drink) as you will, but in either case behave with voluntary self-control and balance, and measure your success by how well your actions enable you to reach the goal of union with the divine.

Fuckin oi. Pick a few and conjure them, then you'll know the difference
