College of Thelema: Thelemic Education

Hey, I got sparked!

Here's what it looks like --

It seems to me that the previous arguments have some bearing on "but Tzaddi is not the Star." The Emperor (old Tarot) probably refused to credit the Old Girl and preferred to keep "house" for himself in some isolated and idealized image of Chokmah. It took the Hierophant to step in and make the switch, thus granting the Emperor, should he wish it, true Tzaddi (which descends from Nuit -- as it did). Meanwhile, now that she has her Window back, she, the Star, finally gets to take a breather (all that ruling through the subconscious was hard work!).

Wait a sec --

"Come! all ye, and learn the secret that hath not yet been revealed. I, Hadit, am the complement of Nu, my bride. I am not extended, and Khabs is the name of my House."

Jim wrote: Most simply, Liber L. tells us that "Khabs" (meaning "star") is the name of Hadit's house.

"Hadit is the 'core of every star,' verse 6. He is thus the Impersonal Identity within the Individuality of 'every man and every woman.'"

Jim wrote: "Star" therefore refers to a level exterior to Yechidah (the Yod aspect of being).

"Khabs -- 'a star' -- is an unit of Nuit, and therefore Nuit Herself. This doctrine is enormously difficult of apprehension, even after these many years of study."

Jim wrote: In other words, it is the Heh or Briatic part of us - the deepest knowable aspect.

Admittedly, I'm new to all this stuff, but it sounds like Jim was saying the same thing.

Hello, all. New to the forum. I've been wanting to throw this out there for awhile before I lose it, seems like a good chance to do so, given the topic. I wrote it when I was sixteen or so and I don't imagine that I'll ever do anything with it.

MAYA

Consciousness is a black hole
sucking up sucking up impression
at a furious rate.
I can't wait I can't wait
for things to grab my attention.
If not for things if not for things,
I'd be nothing,
but they make me forget.

Oh how we're being used.
Oh how we're being abused.
Ah but we're never refused.

I have a book I call my standard reference,
but every time every time it is opened,
the contents have changed.
It's so strange it's so strange
to read the way it is written.
Still you catch me still you catch me pretending
that I know what it means.

Oh how we're being used.
Oh how we're being confused.
Ah but we're never refused.

Maya, Maya, you're such a liar!
Maya, Maya, you're such a liar!
Maya, Maya, you're such a liar!
But you let me lie with you.

Looks like a great forum here. I hope to take from it and contribute as I grow stronger in Thelema.

Best.
