Human exchange

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law

Five long years of a Period Silence where I persistently created essay from insight where it was not permissible to list Imprimatur nor take Probationers has ended with no little relief. Like the Bison who have returned to the plains have readjusted the ecological environment I as an Initiate have been released back into the initiate environment where I can adjust those whose delusions have been so deplorably compromised by the advance of machines where human exchange from the perspective of the path is expounded to those who have the courage to take the irrevocable Oath. Most certainly, my lecture on magical manifestation where the Dolphin is eternal in the sea without becoming the Bird I have expounded how the black brother currents compromise ruach with endless rationalizations go nowhere. Perceive it all from the perspective of magical manifestation and clarity will eventually dawn.

Human Exchange or Humane times Change is quite the parallel of the rearrangement of wording which shall include the subject matter and issues of this lecture. What’s a metaphor? Anything you want it for. Yet, although satire and irony are stimulating they only go so far if human exchange from Our perspective hasn’t “love under will”. As deadly as the ego making faculty called Ahamkara is it is part of the ordeal of growth to grow above and beyond it toward the very real initiations. I have meditated with the normal skepticism of someone involved with scientific illuminism whether the invention of this term from eastern esotericism could be replaced with a more efficient term. Nevertheless, this is beyond the scope of this lecture suffice to state that presently for modern Thelemites it is passable for present audit and instruction. The main point that without human exchange with all its problems we cannot learn what to do and what not to do with regards to our eventual True Will. An AI robot that looks like a pretty woman is repulsive to me; and what I learn from a real woman is infinitely more important than such a replica of a blow up doll made complex by the maneuverings of would be computer coders.

The easiest and hardest way to deal with it is to deal with it; and to not deal with you learn nothing. For the confrontations of your false self to be overcome by your True Self can be ordeal if you resist change. Is this really you; or have the indoctrinations of machines and dogma made you something other than what you would will as aspirations toward your True Self? I quote Liber 44. “Thy reign is come; Thy will is done.” Are you ready to take such a stand where the magical child within is radiant with such a proclamation of triumph; or will you sit idle while deterioration rather than initiation has been planted as a glorious seed for the natural growth of the Child? Wasn’t it improper human exchange that brought you to us where you realized that adjustment was possible with the acceptance of the Law of Θελημα? If this is true than you need our Path of human exchange called “love under will” to arrive to who you really are after those compromises of the past.

We do live in peculiar times, don’t you think? Where I have to write about human exchange where automation and AI have become such a hindrance to human skills that if any average human being were to be placed naked in the forest they wouldn’t even be able to create a campfire. I once created a lecture on this issue where my inquiry was if you were to be place naked on a goldilocks planet what type of civilization could your skills bring what level of civilization. The feedback was not very encouraging, to say the least. 1.

Now, what has this to do with spiritual enlightenment, magick, initiation and the path? Do you really think that without human exchange your initiations will have validity on the Plane of Disks? No doubt, I have the deepest respect for those Thelemites who would give thesis on the importance of psychoanalysis where they in their sincerity are too naive to really do anything with it. You must realize that the sheaths of the self have an existence to be resolved for the unfolding of the True Self on more than one plane. Therefore, we must invent something that my instructor called “parapsycholoanalysis” which is more aligned to how the eventual nature and powers of our being results in awareness and use of magical powers simultaneously with the True Self where the True Will is realized and the true Great Work of the star startles the universe with its manifestations of magical gesture. Once again, how your ego reacts in any given situation is only going to be apparent when you exist with human exchange; and that human exchange has protocol which we name, “love under will”.

No doubt, a woman can be a Lilith demon; but also they can be the divine Priestess and in order to learn and teach we must move to the outermost regions and subdue all things. That the importance of conquering jealousy in relationship; and respect for the “divine feminine” where we acknowledge the balance and the glory of the Priestess in Our Temples is part of our glorious path which is excluded with the old Aeon die-hards should be a well known concept by now. Again, human exchange which we Thelemites have emphasized as “love under will” means learning how to exchange with a lover.

I quote a paragraph from Little Essays Toward Truth. (Note British English does not use “Toward” as a plural.)
“The aim of him who would be Master is single, men call it Personal Ambition. This is, he wants his Universe to be as vast, and his control of it as perfect, as possible.”

This is very important to grasp where this cannot be accomplished efficiently until the control of the planes of the existence are steadfast with volition without the experience of confrontations where you have to learn to teach.

Love is the law, love under will



1. (Could you even bring the hypothetical goldilocks planet to the bronze age? I suggested a Thelemic version of a survival and build manual for colonists. Here on this earth we have Liber A where the process of trying to create The Dagger teaches you the skills of the sword smith. I had one student inquire of me whether she could print out her wand. Another student asked me whether it would all right to write her magical diary up on her word program on her computer instead of actually writing in her diary. Lack of originality and creativity? It might be showing where nearly everyone that does the Cup observing Liber A paints the same number on the cup, 56. Store bought items for magick takes three months of daily practice before they are magically yours which is fine but those few who take Liber A seriously own their four weapons in less than a month magically, with daily magical practice. 56, of course, is always passing for the choice of the number for the Cup but more than one number that represents the universe is going to exist, of course. Naturally, Liber A tells you to engrave but the thin line of writing a number on your Cup blends in on silver or any metal so painting over the engraved number it is actually recommended. The hand tool sculpting knife for the thin lines to create the number on your Cup is the V-point graver. If you are an artist you can create a number on your Cup that stands out by using a hand tool called the flat graver sculptor knife for a shade area on the thin lines of the number. The tools that use laser engraving I’ve never used and I’ve haven’t had a student that had the skills where they can create floral designs or anything fancy and artistic. In fact, using the point of an edge of big screw to create the number works as well which is just a crude engraving. Not everyone has the skills of an artist. No doubt, if your painted circle or even invented rituals are done yourself seem less sophisticated or even verging on crude you at least did it hands on. Alas, these young magicians today are brought up on computers; and the skills of the Pickett Slide Rule are considered twentieth century e.v. obsolete science. )
