Success is thy proof: argue not; convert not; talk not over much! Them that seek to entrap thee, to overthrow thee, them attack without pity or quarter; & destroy them utterly. Swift as a trodden serpent turn and strike! Be thou yet deadlier than he! Drag down their souls to awful torment: laugh at their fear: spit upon them!

Aleister Crowley, Liber AL vel Legis sub figura CCXX, The Book of the Law, III.42

  1. “I see, beyond all seas and star, The gates of hell, the paths of death Open: unclasp the surly bars Before the voice of him that saith: “I will!” Droop lower to my knees! Sink gently to the leopard’s skin!”
  2. “Up rears the pillar. Quaintly shaped and hued, It focussed all the sky and all the plain To its own ugliness. I looked again, And saw its magic in another mood. A shapeless truth took image in my brain.”
  3. “Humanity needs to go into a Dark Age for a few hundred years and think about what it’s done.”
  4. Blue-lidded Daughter of Sunset
  5. “Kamchatka belongs to ‘Mother Russia’ – a punning affirmation of its ‘Yin’ nature. As well it is a place very little touched by human beings, in which drastic changes of ecology and terrain occur on a regular basis. It contains many unique plant and animal species, thus representing the way in which Binah is unrestrained by the ‘status quo’ of the lower spheres.”
