  1. You don't need a temple to traverse the Grades of the Golden Dawn, all you need is to follow their advice on how to transcend the mundane of human existence through to enlightenment. The Neophyte is free to browse the store, taking on what ideas and tasks they see fit to try. Eventually knowledge comes to them, and they start to develop ideas of philosophy that lead them to more ideas of what life is, and what they can get out of life. This is the formation of the Will. Ideas such as what is life? Who am I? Is there a God? Who is God? What does this God do, and what does this God want? What do I do? What do I want? Eventually the Will is refined to a point, the neophyte becomes a magician, developing a personal system of magick based on knowledge and experience. This Will is limited, however, to the neophytes scope, and can only take the candidate so far in power. The Will is under constant refinement until it reaches its limits. That is when the candidate declares their Will to the Universe, and undergoes further transformation. This is the portal grade, and should the candidate have access to the keys, and be chosen, they will enter the Abyss to refine their Will and knowledge. This takes a lifetime of dedication and sincerity, and can be very disabling. There are spirits in the Abyss, and certain knowledge will come to the candidate while other information distracts from purpose. There is magick here, and the candidate will witness impossible things, and have visions that will inform them on their way to enlightenment. The candidate will refine their Will and knowledge, probably undertake moral perfection, and learn about the Universe and God until their knowledge is perfected, and they attain understanding. Wisdom is advice based on knowledge, and the candidate will consider the Wisdom they have gathered, and compare it thoroughly to what they understand. They will compare the revelations of the Abyss with their own comprehension of life and spirits, and eventually conclude on their understanding, and find peace in knowing that they understand. From there, they can develop their own wisdom, and share it with others.
  2. Desire is the spice of life!

    Life is desire! Life is about wanting, and getting what you want. If not for desire, would we have so much today? People wanting and getting, and doing and having.
  3. Magic and psychology

    God hands the sinner over to the Demons. They can do what they like to them. A bottom man is one of these sinners. God will send you to them unless you confess and repay.
  4. Magic and psychology

    The measurement is how much you harmed life, and how much you defended life, and you will be asked to justify the harm against life and law.
  5. Magic and psychology

    GOD is WAR LOVE IS THE LAW DO WHAT THOU WILT IN THE NAME OF LOVE< LEAVE NONE BEHIND< THAT IS THE SOLDIERS CODE>
  6. Magic and psychology

    Take care of the defenseless and fallen.
  7. Magic and psychology

    Man has Free Will, we have the options of performing along with the Virtues and efforts of Labor, choice, Law and desire. Every God, religion and Government has killed in the name of Justice and Desire. If one wants to prove to their God or Governor that they deserve to live, they will defend in whatever manner is allowed, and with the right to defend the Will of Heaven, killing is allowed. Christ said that if they do not take me as king, bring them before me and cut off their head. Is the Bible eternal and unchanging as they proclaim? Or are his elected Governors allowed to change it? The entire scope of existence is formed around the contents of Chaos, as it extended out into its proper Order. Within the contents of Chaos, are the elements, which are used to define the surroundings and purpose of all that is. Philosophers and Magicians examined the properties of these named the objects, images, and personalities. How they all combine and react causes our state of existence. This is drawn all the way into the body of Man and woman. Man and Woman become and do a mixture of these properties and ideas and perform duties to build civilization and bring Law. Men and Women lead invent and build discover and create Laws to govern. As they invent and lead and create, they name more properties, and more words to represent this process. Eventually they perform a deed that Men and Women honor and those are the Immortals. According to the combination of the Self, as in line with the Immortals, Spirits and Divine leaders and Gods, our bodies, minds and words are influenced to act. We are the vessel of these, and we make our decision based upon our interpretation of these. This is a co-creation of God and Man. The Gods love when you avoid words that diminish or condemn. The Law is Do What Thou Wilt. In this, do what you Love, in the way you Love. Nothing is guaranteed. When you invoke the word God or any Holy name of God, expect that the God hears you. If you curse, you may be Cursed, if you Bless you may be Blessed. We unite with meaning as we identify what is righteous. All is sacred, find your Order and purpose, follow the Word, find its meaning, and declare your Will. I suggest that the perfect prayer to meditate on is “I'm sorry, this is Chaos, I apologize, and I forgive” Then you will come to your moral Truth. The only Chaos in Man.
  8. Do What Thou Wilt

    Survival of the fittest is a Law of Mankind. All Order will be tested to prove you are fit.
  9. Do What Thou Wilt

    Saints of Mercy, House of Order, Saints of Order.
  10. Do What Thou Wilt

    Keep the Order, work to remove the Sins of the Order, have Mercy.
  11. Do What Thou Wilt

    If your mission is Mercy, you can be saved. If your mission is Order, you can be saved. Doing both is excellent.
  12. Do What Thou Wilt

    Mercy and Mission. Remove Sin, be charitable.
  13. Do What Thou Wilt

    Dualities, Chaos, Nihilism. Repair the damages, make amends, eliminate Sin, and crime. Promote the Wisdom that will contribute to this cause.
  14. Do What Thou Wilt

    If you dont remove Sin and have Mercy you will be forgotten.
  15. Do What Thou Wilt

    If you believe in Mercy, you have Mercy. If you believe in repairing the damages you caused from lack of Mercy you create the Wisadom of Mercy. If you want to repair the damages of the Earth, you create Wisdom of how to repair the damages of the Earth. In both cases, apologizing and making amends is good.
  16. Do What Thou Wilt

    If you don't have Mercy, you inherit the Earth, if you have Mercy, you inherit Heaven.
  17. Do What Thou Wilt

    The next level of Understanding, is Mercy, and when you realize the need for Mercy, you take action against the Sins you recognize.
  18. Do What Thou Wilt

    If you believe that you are fulfilling your role in the conflict of life, and that choice and conflict provide for Sin and War, then following your Will is all you need to do, and there is no need to apologize. If you find as you do this, that there is a moral Truth, then you adjust your response to the Sin according to how you think it should be addressed.
  19. Do What Thou Wilt

    I suspect that Peter Carrol was the final word on Chaos. I can suspect that I exhausted the contents of Chaos, and then closed its door, and said all of this is true, and according to the Laws of Creation and Man and the Gods that we have, I can speculate that everything is allowed, and that we are meant to follow our understanding, and do what is right by our minds, and in the end the result will be measured. I can suspect that in 1387, when the first doubt was publicly cast on Christ, that the book of Revelations began.
  20. Do What Thou Wilt

    God made you in the womb. God knows your every secret Wish.
