of the princes, ankh-f-na-khonsu, child of ta-nech, the holy and mighty one, and of bes-na-maut, priestess of the starry one, set myself to tell myself the strange things that befell me in that life. thus. at my birth aphruimis in the sign of the lion was ascending, and in it that strange hidden planet that presides over darkness and magic and forbidden love. the sun was united with the planet of amoun, but in the abyss, as page 1 gulf.txt showing that my power and glory should be secret, and in aterechinis the second decanate of the house of mast, so that my passion and pleasure should likewise be unprofance. in the house of travel in the sign of the ram was the moon my sweet lady. and the wise men interpreted this as a token that i should travel afar; it might be to the great temple at t

t, and let her bowels be devoured by apep; let her be prostituted to the lust of besz, and let her face be eaten by the god. it is not good to write his name. then they loosed me, and i lay smiling in the pool. they lifted me up and brought me to the feet of the goddess, so that i might kiss them. and as i kissed them such a thrill ran through me that i thought myself rapt away into the heaven of amoun, or even as asi when hoor and hoor-pa-kraat, cleaving her womb, sprang armed to life. then they stripped me of my robes, and lashed me with fine twigs of virgin hazel, until my blood ran from me into the pool. but the surface of the silver swallowed up the blood by some mysterious energy; and they took this to be a sign of acceptance. so then they clothed me in the right robes of a priestess

and purified ourselves. then i went unto the ceremony of osiris, and for the last time the shameful farce was played. but in my heart i vowed secretly to cleanse the temple of its chicanery and folly. therefore at the end of the ceremony did i perform a mighty banishing, a banishing of all things mortal and immortal, even from nuit that circleth infinite space unto hadit the core of things; from amoun that ruleth before all the gods unto python the terrible serpent that abideth at the end of things, from ptah the god of the pure soul of aethyr unto besz the brute force of that which is grosser than earth, which hath no name, which is denser than lead and more rigid than steel; which is blacker than the thick darkness of the abyss, yet is within all and about all. amen! then during the day

ALEISTER CROWLEY BOOK OF LIES

e to an important statement, an adumbration of the most daring thesis in this book- father and son are not really two, but one; their unity being the holy ghost, the semen; the human form is a non-essential accretion of this quintessence. so far the chapter has followed the sephiroth from kether to chesed, and chesed is united to the supernal triad by virtue of its phallic nature; for not only is amoun a phallic god, and jupiter the father of all, but 4 is daleth, venus, and chesed refers to water, from which venus sprang, and which is the symbol of the mother in the tetragrammaton. see chapter 0 "god the father and mother is concealed in generation. but chesed, in the lower sense, is conjoined to microprosopus. it is the true link between the greater book of lies get any book for free on:

uthor's observation as a naturalist. paragraph 1 mere repeats chapter 4 in quintessence; 1001, being 11 sigma (1-13, is a symbol of the complete unity manifested as the many, for sigma (1-13) gives the whole course of numbers from the simple unity of 1 to the complex unity of 13, impregnated by the magical 11. i may add a further comment on the number 91. 13 (1 plus 3) is a higher form of 4. 4 is amoun, the god of generation, and 13 is 1, the phallic unity. daleth is the yoni. and 91 is amn (amen, a form of the phallus made complete through the intervention of the yoni. this again connects with the io and oi of paragraph 1, and of course io is the rapture-cry of the greeks. the whole chapter is, again, a comment on liber legis, 1, 28-30. notes (9) 1001= 11 sigma. the petals of the sahasrar
