"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I shall remain. "

"Don't be too timid and squeemish about your actions. All life is an experiment.
The more experiments you make the better."
Ralph Waldo Emerson"The only things I complete are those of which (as for instance, poetry and Magick) I am not the real author but an instrument impelled by a mysterious power which sweeps me away in effortless enthusiasm which leaves no room for my laziness, cynicism and similar inhibiting qualities to interfere."
Aleister Crowley

On the Royal Arte:
It is said that belief is the mulch in the soil of obsession, and gnosis the fruit grown therein. Can the scientist survive on a diet of dead bark? Will the artist only stain themselves by digging in the soil? Verily I say they are both in want of the Fruit - the scientist for nourishment, the artist for seed. Armed with that desire, the dead matter of belief and the chthonic collection of obsession come into right relation with the fruit of gnosis. Beliefs must be constantly re-examined and restructured to reflect the 'facts' of nature, as our understanding of them develops. Doubt becomes a tool to keep vigilance against bewitchment by ideas."

"The rites of passage are structured according to the so-called heliocentric hypothesis of Scientific Illuminism. (This Sun-centered model does not presuppose the star as either masculine or feminine. "Every man and every woman is a star." ccxx:i:ii)
To convey some of the implications of the heliocentric hypothesis it may be useful to define what it is not. In some schools of metaphysical dialogue the individual was thought to be imparted some sort of energy or current by transference,
a laying on of hands, in the course of a rite of passage. One
particular example of this transference is the concept of apostolic
succession. In general, a supposition that initiation is sparked by an
outside, superior source which animates inert matter into a particular
direction.
This is not the case with Scientific Illuminism.
The models of ontology implied in Liber AL vel Legis, the
supreme grimoire of Scientific Illuminism, strongly suggest that
initiation is sparked and reified by the core of the individual, the
sovereign basin of attraction which generates the facade of personality
in its play of incarnation. To elaborate the star analogy further, one
notes that this basin of attraction is continuous & uninterrupted.
A star is a positive monad of the negative continuum symbolized by infinite space and the infinite stars thereof, a mathematical point which contains the whole.
The play of
incarnation, wherein appearances of immanence and transcendence are
equally incomplete models, is too elusive and subtle to discuss here.
There is a golden thread which runs through the whole gamut of
philosophical works, and it is fully elaborated and refined by the
Class A publications of the A ..

. However, it may be stated here for our purposes that Scientific Illuminism designates the ontological core
of the individual as the supreme authority and source of the energetic
& material current of initiation! No longer is the candidate of
initiation considered to be 'impure' or a piece of a whole to be
reattached rather, the candidate is very god of very god! The appearances of imperfection, impurity, sorrow, ignorance, etc,
are all modes of involvement for the stainless Silence which has
incarnated itself into condition (Speech, the springing forth of the LOGOS )
for Its amusement and realization. These conditions are complexes
through which the All enfolds itself in a narcissistic fun-house of
reflections, which the human form calls "I". "divided for love's
