Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law
Well, well well. More questions that are questionably questioned where I might very well question the question whether it actually has any bearing on your immediate priorities. To what end shall this latest question have on anything which might give anything but idle speculations without experience of magick; or nearly as deteriorated as an aspirant who is clumsy in their attempt to impress you by that assumption you will not see with crystal clarity that you neglected to think the issue out prior to your query. Perhaps you should study what the Master Therion expounded about the Secret Chiefs; or if you did are of that type of aspirant who tries to dig out magical secrets from the Master? One of these legendary "guru bullies"; are you? Perish the thought with Liber 16. I can only question your motives and answer questions where observing zeal to those below me are a part of the Oath and Task of the Hierarchy.
Ah, the question. I had to give the above where I have observed this and spoken about it before. I did get that out into the open again. Now, see here, I am inquired on how I think the Secret Chiefs will transform civilization as the forties e.v. moves closer. Did you stay up all night trying to think of a question that you thought would give you insights; or just half the night? Don’t answer that, I should think that a better question would be who will learn to hold power and that is naturally answered with clarity when you consider that nation or nations that are magically the closest to adherence to the Aeon.
I absolutely have taken seriously the Master Therion’s proclamation that the first nation to accept the Law of Θελημα shall become the sole Mistress of the World. This means the real leader of the free world might be anyone; and be in any social, economic, or in any nation while those who think they Govern or Rule are simultaneously puppets of the black brothers and Messengers of the Secret Chiefs. How are they both? Well, this is a subject not accustomed for the novice so I should build it up layer by layer in this lecture. World War II was a reaction of change from the 93 Current. You did it to yourselves by not making the right decisions when the magick was manifesting. Like any magical operation on any scale we have the issue of recoil.
Perhaps I should remind everyone that any organization or political system that doesn't manifest from above the abyss has its seeds of destruction. I might state that the 93 Current is of the Supernal and as magical energy of the Aeon those organizations or political systems that are the closest to Its energy shall become the most successful. Resistant to change those who die-hard with the old Aeon will be those nations operated upon with the most fear and recoil. This means the Secret Chiefs do nothing that you do not do to yourselves. Do not blame the Secret Chiefs for your own folly, after all, who simply exist as a possibility for their Communication where their Great Work is beyond anything you could imagine; and it will even be disastrous to try to be so presumptuous as to know Them as They really are.
Those Hidden Masters, or Secret Chiefs are above the abyss; and eventually with a certain time on your Path you will be advanced enough to call yourself to their attention. They will always answer You but you might not like what occurs. It is best not to be trampled by the feet of immortals; and concentrate on the priorities of your True Will. Moreover,adjustments are the habit of phenomenal existence where the first forties e.v. shall not have the same factors as the second forties e.v. in the near future where the Book of the Law is within the being of overall humanity; and no one is left alive that you know that would have been born before 1904 e.v.. After all, with everyone alive today born in this Aeon the situation with the next forties e.v. will take another step that shall not be a world war. In due consideration of this, you would have to be at least 122 years old to have been born in the Aeon of Osiris or more correctly the Aeon of Asar which is the Name mentioned in the Book of the Law. (This lecture is therefore dated to be March 13th, An CXXI, or 2025 era vulgari)
How to hold power after the conquering is a query that has never previously held any weight even among the greatest geniuses of strategic war maneuvers. Thelemites need to study carefully the threefold instruction of conquest for it shall be the preliminary of true conquest as we study carefully the patterns of history that are in touch with reality. We humans do repeat the same errors over and over again; and perhaps clarity of history might alert us toward a world civilization where we have, at the very least, learned that we haven’t learned perchance we might learn to not let it all recoil on us. World civilization continues to deteriorate with a little less frequency as it advances where some nations are overall a little more civilized than others.
We must observe how these old Aeon Currents with their status of onward deterioration change is not viewed by them lightly; and with fear. Moscow might burn, Canada might become industrial, Armenia might become an aristocracy, a nation you do not expect might exceed the space programs of the United States; or new empires arise; China might see either absolute destruction; or the play of the chess board might have elements unforeseen where committing suicide by mutual errors of judgment another nation steps in where genocide repeats itself; or Tibet might come out victorious where most of China will lose its territories. Either way, nothing has changed in terms of what has occurred in the past where no one comes out holding power forever in the long run; and no one retains the power or status they imagine will persist throughout time without serious consideration to the 93 Current.
How quick and quaint that power gives where its devious plans are so often recoiled on those whose immediate has not foreseen the skill of retention by those consequences of opposing forces. The withdrawal of the Roman Empire from England, the deterioration of the Mongol Hordes even after so much conquest,the fall of the Nazi Party, the dissolution of the communist takeovers of small nations, and many other examples of so many conflicts where they held the world for a short period only to be delivered to the prison of their self made delusions as they withdrew to eventual mediocrity.
Without a doubt, you can conquer but holding power is yet another issue entirely. Of course, the victor can write its history and therefore we cannot exclude those of the past whose nations existed for centuries where their very transition of theologies like the untimely horrors of polytheism to monotheism where nations that once were superpowers become third world nations.
Tibet is an excellent example of a nation presently occupied by a nation far more aggressive than the teachings of its previous leaders mainly in exile who promoted the idea of a spiritual leader being the Government. I should mention even here in the west the Tibetan Wonders who were murdered in 1959 e.v. were famous whether it was “the ancient one” of Dr. Strange, the admiration of Alice Bailey and Helena Blavatsky who died before their mystical heroes were compromised by the greed of the communists. Mystical leaders ran the nation for a time in ancient nations under the protocol of what we now call the God King which was the fashion of a multitude of nations. Yet, they were never passively indifferent. Of course, even they could not retain their power; and with the mystical polytheistic warriors at a loss from the march of monotheism the Pharaoh and respectively the Temple of the Gods with its merge with ancient economy quickly dissolved.
Of course, the idea of “universal compassion” and “passive indifference” is out of touch with the reality of how we humans behave; and passive indifference shall not win against those who would use the papers of the Geneva Convention as toilet paper while they try to preach a mystical system that cannot survive in a world of never ending conflicts. How curious it is that neither side will actually hold power where the aggressor will reach the point of no return; withdraw its forces as a consequence of misplaced compassion,change of policy in ideology or big business blatantly buying with bombast disguised as diplomacy. Both sides being temporary blisters on history where the empty space of their inevitable dissolution means some other nation might step in and take advantage to take power only to have the entire process repeat itself several hundred years down the line. At least this has been the pattern of history where even the greatest geniuses of strategic war maneuver cannot hold power where their very mortality and life span meets their fate; and with no one to fill their shoes the entire system collapses.
