David Beth essay “Aleister Crowley and the Dawn of Aiwass”

You may be interested in checking out a newly available PDF of an updated David Beth (author of Voudon Gnosis, past leader of Ordo Templi Orientis Antiqua & La Couleuvre Noire, and member of La Société Voudon Gnostique) essay “Aleister Crowley and the Dawn of Aiwass” which has a number of notes which reference Aleister Crowley’s Liber AL vel Legis sub figurâ CCXX as delivered by (LXXVIII) XCIII unto DCLXVI with a commentary by The Beast To Mega Therion 666.

The post about this essay over at LAShTAL notes that David Beth is making this available “[a]s a gift to the Thelemic community for their inspiration and their aid in research and ideas in the past” and that “David considers this one of his finest non-Voudon related writings and invites conversation and feedback on it.”

  5. “Rabelais is commonly given credit for the initial formulation of the libertarian ethical maxim of thelema, being the sole rule of his fictional Abbey of Thelema: ‘fay çe que vouldras’, variously translated from archaic French as ‘do what thou wilt,’ ‘do what you please,’ ‘do as you wish,’ etc.”
