Book Description
Who is Frater Achad and why should we study him? Besides Aleister Crowley, Frater Achad is the single most important Thelemite in our history. He discovered the secrets of which Crowley was oblivious and he proved that Crowley did not write The Book of the Law. His discoveries about the number 31 and how 31 (AL) x 3 gods = 93 is critical. He discovered the 93 Current. Crowley so loved his discovery that he changed the cover of 'Liber L vel Legis' to 'Liber AL vel Legis.'Achad also joined the A.'.A.'. in 1909, only a few years after Crowley established the Order. He, like Crowley, swore the Oath of the Abyss and became a Magister Templi. He was already in the A.'.A.'. when Crowley was approached by Reuss to join the OTO.Crowley's letters to Achad in these early years are the clearest description of how OTO sex magick works. Equally important are Crowley's views on women. Achad's breakup with Crowley is discussed in-depth, as is the debacle in Detroit, the Cefalu period and Achad's involvement in the Universal Brotherhood. We also address the question, "Who is Maat?"

The Assimilation of Yogic Religions through Pop Culture
Author: Paul G. Hackett
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 1498552307
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
The image of the meditating yogi has become a near-universal symbol for transcendent perfection used to market everything from perfume and jewelry to luxury resorts and sports cars, and popular culture has readily absorbed it along similar lines. Yet the religious traditions grounding such images are often readily abandoned or caricatured beyond recognition, or so it would seem. The essays contained in The Assimilation of Yogic Religions through Pop Culture explore the references to yogis and their native cultures of India, Tibet, and China as they are found in the stories of many famous icons of popular culture, from Batman, Spider-Man, and Doctor Strange to Star Trek, Doctor Who, Twin Peaks, and others. In doing so, the authors challenge the reader to look deeper into the seemingly superficial appropriation of the image of the yogi and Asian religious themes found in all manner of comic books, novels, television, movies, and theater and to carefully examine how they are being represented and what exactly is being said.

The Three Dangerous Magi
Author: P. T. Mistlberger
Publisher: John Hunt Publishing
ISBN: 184694435X
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 724
Book Description
The Most Dangerous man since Jesus Christ, the Sex Guru, the Ambassador from Hell, the Black Devil of Ashkhabad, The King of Depravity, and the Wickedest Man in the World. These were some of the labels given to three of the most notorious figures of 20th century spirituality: Osho (formerly known as Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh), G.I. Gurdjieff, and Aleister Crowley. Beneath the controversies and scandals that swirled around all three the author argues that these men, egocentric tendencies notwithstanding, were brilliant thinkers and extraordinary masters of their craft, that of the science of inner transformation, and in particular the art of balancing the so called Left and Right Hand spiritual paths. These men were not humble sages. They were bona fide crazy wisdom masters and consistently went where angels fear to tread. They did not teach with the faint praise of new age fluff or the stuffy platitudes of religious sermons, but rather with a flaming sword, and were a genuine menace to all seekers who fear to face the abyss of their own egos.
