Commentary (ΛΓ) on Baphomet in Liber CCCXXXIII, The Book of Lies by Aleister Crowley.

“The secrets of his order were, however, not lost, and are still being communicated to the worthy by his successors, as is intimated by the last paragraph, which implies knowledge of a secret worship, of which the Grand Master did not speak.” [via]

Consider also:

  1. “So spake IACOBUS BURGUNDUS MOLENSIS the Grand Master of the Temple; and of the GOD that is Ass-headed did he dare not speak.”
  2. “Baphomet is the mysterious name of the God of the Templars. The Eagle described in paragraph 1 is that of the Templars. This Masonic symbol is, however, identified by Frater P. with a bird, which is master of the four elements, and therefore of the name Tetragrammaton.”
  3. “Strain forth thine Intelligence, O man, O worthy one, O chosen of IT, to apprehend the discourse of THE MASTER; for thus thy reason shall at last break down, as the fetter is struck from a slave’s throat.”
  4. “Is it not so?… No?… Then thou art not lost in love; speak not of love.”
  5. “The penultimate paragraph shows the redemption of the universe by this law.”
