The Book of the Law - Aleister Crowley

introduction one the book this book was dictated in cairo between noon and 1:00 p.m. on three successive days april eighth ninth and tenth in the year of 1904 the author called himself Iowa's and claimed to be the minister of coop our crops that is a messenger from the forces ruling this earth at present as will be explained later on how could he prove that he was in fact a being of a kind superior to any of the human race and so entitled to speak with authority evidently he must show knowledge and power such as no

man has ever been known to possess he showed his knowledge chiefly by the use of cipher or cryptogram in certain passages to set forth recondite facts including some events which had yet to take place such that no human being could possibly be aware of them thus the proof of his claim exists in the manuscript itself it is independent of any human witness the study of these passages necessarily demands supreme human scholarship to interpret it needs years of intense application a great deal has still to be worked out but enough has been discovered to justify his

claim the most skeptical intelligence is compelled to admit its truth this matter is best studied under the master theory on whose years of arduous research have led him to enlightenment on the other hand the language of most of the book is admirably simple clear and vigorous no one can read it without being stricken in the very core of his being the more than human power of iowa's is shown by the influence of his master and of the book upon actual events and history fully supports the claim made by him these facts are appreciable by everyone

but are better understood with the help of the master theory on the full detailed account of the events leading up to the dictation of this book with facsimile reproduction of the manuscript and an essay by the master theory on is published in the equinox of the gods to the universe this book explains the universe the elements are new eat space that is the total of possibilities of every kind and hadeep any point which has experience of these possibilities this idea is for literary convenience symbolized by the Egyptian goddess new eat a woman bending over like

the arch of the night sky hadith is symbolized as a winget globe at the heart of new eat every event is a uniting of someone monad with one of the experiences possible to it every man and every woman is a star that is an aggregate of such experiences constantly changing with the each fresh event which affects him or her either consciously or subconsciously each one of us has thus on universe of his own but it is the same universe for each one as soon as it includes all possible experience this implies the extension of consciousness

to include all other consciousness in our present stage the object that you see is never the same as the one I see we infer that it is the same because your experience tallies with mine on so many points that the actual differences of our observation are negligible for instance if a friend is walking between us you see only his left side I see is right but we agree that it is the same man although we may differ not only as to what we may see of his body but as to what we know of his

qualities this conviction of identity grows stronger as we see him more often and get to know him better yet all the time neither of us can know anything of him at all beyond the total impression made on our respective minds the above is an extremely crude attempt to explain a system which reconciles all existing schools of philosophy 3 the law of to Lima this book lays down a simple code of conduct do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law love is the law love under will there is no law beyond do of

thou wilt this means that each of us stars is to move on our own true orbit as marked out by the nature of our position the law of our growth the impulse of our past experiences all events are equally lawful and everyone necessary in the long run for all of us in theory but in practice only one act is lawful for each one of us at any given moment therefore Duty consists in determining to experience the right event from one moment of consciousness to another each action or emotion is an act of love the uniting

with one or another part of new eat each such act must be under will chosen so as to fulfill and not to thwart the true nature of the being concerned the technical methods of achieving this are to be studied in magic or acquired by personal instruction from the master theory on and his appointed assistance for the new Aeon the third chapter of the book is difficult to understand and may be very repugnant to many people born before the date of the book April 1904 it tells us the characteristics of the period on which we are

now entered superficially they appear appalling we see some of them already with terrifying clarity but fear not it explains that certain vast stars or aggregates of experience may be described as gods one of these is in charge of the destinies of this planet for periods of 2,000 years in the history of the world as far as we know accurately are three such gods Isis the mother when the universe was conceived as simple nourishment drawn directly from her this period is marked by matriarchal government next beginning 500 BC Osiris the father when the universe was imagined

as catastrophic love death resurrection as the method by which experience was built up this corresponds to patriarchal systems now Horace the child in which we come to perceive events as a continual growth partaking in its elements of both these methods and not to be overcome by circumstance this present period involves the recognition of the individual as the unit of society we realize ourselves as explained in the first paragraphs of this essay every event including death is only one more accretion to our experience freely willed by ourselves from the beginning and therefore also predestined this God

Horace has a technical title Carew raha a combination of twin gods Rahu or queen and who repair crops the meaning of this doctrine must be studied in magic he is symbolized as a hawk headed God and throned he rules the present period of two thousand years beginning in 1904 everywhere his government is taking root observed for yourselves the decay of the sense of sin the growth of innocence and irresponsibility the strange modifications of the reproductive instinct with a tendency to become bisexual or epicene the childlike confidence in progress combined with nightmare fear of catastrophe against

which we are yet half unwilling to take precautions consider the outcrop of dictatorships only possible when moral growth is in its earliest stages and the prevalence of infantile cults like communism fascism pacifism health crazes occultism in nearly all its forms religions sentimentalized to the point of practical extinction consider the popularity of the cinema the wireless the football pools and guessing competitions all devices for soothing fractious infants no seed of purpose in them consider sport the babyish enthusiasms and rages which it excites whole nations disturbed by disputes between boys consider war the atrocities which occur daily

and leave us unmoved and hardly worried we are children how this new Aeon of Horrors will develop how the child will grow up these are for us too growing up ourselves in the way of the law of D'Alema under the enlightened guidance of the master theory on five the next step democracy daughters ferocious fascism cackling communism equally frauds cavort crazily all over the globe they are hemming us in they are abortive births of the child the new Aeon of Horus Liberty stirs once more in the womb of time evolution makes its changes by anti socialistic

ways the abnormal man who foresees the trend of the times and adapts circumstance intelligently is laughed at persecuted often destroyed by the herd but he in his heirs when the crisis comes our survivors above us today hangs a danger never yet paralleled in history we suppress the individual in more and more ways we think in terms of the herd or no longer kill soldiers it kills all indiscriminately every new measure of the most democratic and autocratic governments is communistic in essence it is always restriction we are all treated as imbecile children d'Oro the shop sacks

the motoring laws Sunday suffocation the censorship they won't trust us to cross the roads at will fascism is like communism and dishonest into the bargain the dictators suppress all art literature theatre music news that does not meet their requirements yet the world only moves by the light of genius the herd will be destroyed in mass the establishment of the law of de Lima is the only way to preserve individual liberty and to assure the future of the race in the words of the famous paradox of the Comte de phoenix the absolute rule of the state

shall be a function of the absolute liberty of each individual will all men and women are invited to cooperate with the master theory on in this the great work om liebherr all val legis sub figura 220 as delivered by 93 equals 418 to 666 chapter 1 hot the manifestation of nu eat the unveiling of the company of heaven every man and every woman is a star every number is infinite there is no difference help me a warrior Lord of Thebes and my unveiling before the children of men be thou hadith my secrets enter my heart
