College of Thelema: Thelemic Education

I feel compelled to share this.

IMVHO...

I think what should be aspired to here is to actually view these things in some physical sense.
Well thats what I aspire too. On the surface it may sound foolish but I'm not so sure. Here's why:

I also read Modern Magick, albeit 15 years ago. I was new to the subject and went on as you are now.
Time passed (maybe 8-10 yrs)and I stopped performing the LBRP regularly. I was studying other systems, religions, etc. but would always come come back and would do the ritual in spurts for a few weeks. I to would use the brain to visualize the pentagrams in a bluish color and when charged would explde in flame similar to the cover of that book. Anyways during one of my returns to the ritual several years back I was doing it in a dark bathroom. I started off as usual. I wasnt activley even studying Magick at the time so I wasnt adding any new attributions,no assumption of god-forms, no robes. Just me, in the bathroom doing the ritual. When I drew the pentagram in the east something was different. The color was vivid and it seemed as if I was viewing it and not projecting it but through the force of motion I immediatley began charging it and it certainly charged. it exploded in what I call an electric blue flame. But not flame more like electric sparks mostly white with a blue hint. I could hear it crackling. The bathroom seemed to be lit. Literally. I could now see in the dark. I kept going but as I moved on I couklnt really take my eyes of the first pentagram and it quickly faded.

However even that couldnt keep me active then. Only recently have I finally undergone the nescesary changes in myself to know I will do it for the rest of my life. Nothing even ever come close to that experience. But it was so clear and crisp. my very first thought when I saw it was " YES!! thats how it suppossed to look" I try to re-create it to no avail.

In my mind this experience was confirmed recently in something I was reading. I'm prety sure its in Liber O when the rituals are first described.

Or Im just crazy.

The Book of the Law in story form would be pretty cool.

If you do find something please post a link.

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

I am now Wide awake and truly aware.
I have been awakened by forces I can't even begin to comprehend. The nature and scope of such things are actually both startling and profound. Beyond that I dont care to speculate publicly.

I arrived at the Law on my own accord. With the epiphany! That we truly only live our lives in two ways. In fear of others or in service to them. It took me 35 years to have that epiphany. I searched long and hard for it. High and low, here and there, with this and that, in front of people who didnt understand. Then it happened, and I knew where I was supposed to be. So I resought Liber AL vel Legis. The real understanding of this has had a profound and deeply "spiritual" (for lack of a better word) effect on me. An entire life has been burnt to ashes and a king is born, aflame, anew. Lifted straight out of the depths... Just like the Phoenix.

I arrived there through contemplation and meditation on the nature of existence. Science> physics> Relativity>Quantum field theory and the likes. I had a thorough knowledge on these subjects and yet there were too many clues to suggest something much grander then the human mind can just spring into thought at will. I'm not anywhere close to understanding myself fully so i dont really expect anyone else too either.

I look forward to meeting new people who are on their own path.

I'm a Thelemite, a Magician, writer, poet, musician,
thinker, philosopher, nothing of a gossiper.
I am witty, aggressive, yet aware of all these lessons.
Sexual, pleasurable, sometimes even lewd.
Immeasurable, sensual, one cool a** f**** dude.

Love is the Law, Love under Will.

Another mans Understanding is...

The Number system in itself is Infinite in only two directions. However, in those directions the potential for new integers is also infinite. Volume or lack thereof, the scale is immense.

Also it would be an injustice not to speak of the Qabbalistic nature of this statement.
Ones understanding of the Qabbala limits their understanding of this line to a great degree.

Knowing the relationship and the interaction of any one thing and any other thing through Gematria is IMO a demonstration of this, no matter where on the scale you choose to observe.
