Dear Ms. Rutkowski:

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law



1. I have received your letter of April 11. Allow me to offer you the Greetings of the New Year.

2. I must say, you and your mouthpiece really are a couple of clowns. Your mouthpiece calls and assures me that your new guru has not asked you to get in touch with me and you promptly write to tell me that he has. You don't even lie very well.

3. Let us get a few things straight. You seem to think I owe you something. I don't owe you a thing.

4. You seem to think the Order owes you some sort of special attention. I can't imagine why. You never lifted a finger to help us, though you were around at a time when the Order was in dire need. Is it because you sent money? Really, now -- like everyone else you regard the Order as existing on your own sort of moral level. Let me put it into a little perspective for you: I compare you to another of Mr. Motta's pupils who gave money to the Order from day one, rather than waiting years as you did. He didn't have to be asked, either. And rather than grudgingly handing over 5% like you and so many of your self-important kin, he gave 50%. On top of that he did what he could to assist the Order, whether it was proofreading the manuscripts, filing Mr. Motta's tax returns or even buying him shampoo. Yet unlike you, your Holiness, he considers himself to have been an unworthy disciple and a rotten Aspirant.

5. Is it because of your vaunted intelligence? I have spent my life among people every bit as smart as you and much more so, and I can tell you something that Mr. Motta was far more aware of than I -- intelligence never implies character. And as far as the Order is concerned, an ounce of character is worth a ton of intelligence. And you have yet to demonstrate that you have even an ounce. The only thing you have demonstrated is that you are frantic to be considered very important.

6. No doubt you are anxious to know my reasons for not communicating with the other Trustee. As it happens, my Instructor told me not to. I realize this would not be particularly significant to you, as you never saw fit to take the Oath of Service. There is also another reason. Unfortunately, you would not understand it if I told it to you, for it takes a certain amount of spiritual development to understand and you, my dear little monkey, have not even started on that Path, your delusions to the contrary notwithstanding. [I will give you a free hint: spiritual work does not consist of going out to dinner and congratulating oneself on all the magnificent progress one has made and then writing flirtatious letters under the influence of alcohol to waste the time of the holiest man on the planet (Mr. Motta, of course, not my humble self).

7. So you have found a new guru. Very good. It is always part of the Ordeals to be able to tell gold from dross in that matter. No doubt you have chosen with deep wisdom. I am delighted, really, for I am always happy to jettison the dead weight. Since you are now working with him, I do not wish to have any further communications fromm you or your mouthpiece. No doubt you will all go out and save the world now. I hope so. I feel much too tired and unworthy for the task myself.

            8. I cannot help but add that I haven't the slightest respect for any woman who considers herself liberated and yet has the man fucking her doing her work for her.



Love is the law, love under will




Sincerely,




Daniel B. Stone

Trustee


The purpose of printing this letter openly is not to discredit Jana Rutkowski. She came and left and had her short but lively history as the "naughty little girl" who flirted with Mr. Motta and gave some of her money. Last heard of she was wasting away her life pretending to have knowledge of everyone else's character, (but her own, of course.) buttering it up with C.O.T.O. members, and in general making a total buffoon of herself. (Quite the amusing little slut.) No, we need not discredit an ex-Probationer who failed -- simply being an ex-Probationer that was expelled on September 20, LXXXV 1988 e.v. should be discredit enough for any sane Aspirant. The purpose of printing this letter is to show why Daniel Ben Stone was not considered for any succession by any members of Society Ordo Templi Orientis. The reader must understand that there is a time to show strength and a time to step forth with confidence and honour, and a time to be humble. Observe Mr. Stone's words "I feel much too tired and unworthy for the task myself.", and let the reader realize that Mr. Stone was simply not considered strong enough and experienced enough to carry the load of World Leadership of the O.T.O.. We do not slight nor mention Mr. Stone these days. He cannot be blamed for the weakness and lack of confidence of Soror K.A. nor the mental state of William Barden. Careful historians should note that in paragraph 6 of this letter Mr. Stone is pointing out to Rutkowski that Mr. Motta told him not to communicate with William Barden at all. William Barden's insanity was so acute that Mr. Motta had instructed Daniel Ben Stone not to communicate with him. Of course, Stone was also very confused on his priorities, for he was supposed to vote!!! Had Soror K.A. not shown such moral weakness and insecurity the situation would of turned quite differently. THE DECLARATION OF TRUST WAS MEANT TO BE OBEYED AND THIS MEANT A VOTE!! Mr. Stone wrote this letter to Rutkowski in good faith, nevertheless his lack of confidence and tact were both disappointing and counterproductive.
