College of Thelema: Thelemic Education

Great share, ld330 - looking forward to reading that.

Thank you, IAO131, I was undecided as to whether I should start with what attracts me, or the polar opposite, you know?

I'm taking a middle approach and am trying to digest Levi and The Pradapika simutaneously, to start.

Patrick - the obvious answer for the obvious question, alright Mark's suggestion to focus on Gems reiterates your answer and reassures (relieves?) me that I may not have to - initially - read every word of every volume.

Mark, thank you so much for your input - I've flirted heavily with Crowley's writings in the past, and The Soldier and the Hunchback is one of his essays I've read a few times. I glanced through Levi's book, and I can predict it will be a laborious read.

Jim - thanks, yes - using that syllabus. It's daunting enough! I can only image what the *suggested *reading list is.

Thank you all for your replies. I remain intimidated but commited.

I've collected the texts on the Student reading list. I'm slightly overwhelmed.

Does anyone have any advice on what to start with, or what worked for you during your 3 months of fervid study?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
