- from the Grady Project:
-
- A M U C K!
-
-
- When out the misty future clears
- The written history of the years,
- Across those scrolling pages laced
- The fury of our storm is traced
- In burnished gold, for from the walls
- Of mighty Karnak's carven halls
- Shrill silvery bugles sound the charge!
- Come, Soldier-Priests of ancient Tharge
- Arise ye Templars of the Graal
- Send forth the ringing challenge: Hail
- The rebirth of the Laws of Pan
- Reclaim your heritage and span
- The waiting world. That which effaced
- Our holy cause must be erased
- With fiery sword and lifted rod
- The mystic symbol of our God!
- And when the dawn proclaims the day
- Then may the crawling Christians pray.
-
- Thus it came that as the aeons crept or fled the spirit grew;
- Out of elemental substance foamed the hot and potent brew.
-
- Foamed and spewed in theurgic rhythm, roared a thundering litany;
- Molded from its psychic forces our enshrined epiphany!
-
- Stood our pantheon incarnate vesting full the Will of Man,
- Glowing in its royal splendor, filling the imperial plan.
-
- Brooded then within the mountains,
- From the park, between the fountains
- Came a cyclone funnel roiling,
- Holy, sacred Nago coiling
- Rearing high the hydra hood
- Which sign and token of the Rood
- Guards with his canopy the Priest,
- Our Lord of Lords, our King--THE BEAST!
-
- Now our champion before us
- Striking in the sight of Horus
- Down into the valley swinging;
- With a surging timbre ringing
- Bright battle axe and arching sword
- Slash in and through the serried hoard
- Of those who thought to bound their hope
- Within their own small meagre scope.
-
- Hooves of thunder are a pealing
- Roll as back they stagger reeling
- From the black mailed Knights of Heiro,
- Adepts of the station zero,
- Sit their steeds of mighty thew
- Swing out and then come shearing through
- To criss and cross behind these cattle
- Stampeding from the shock of battle!
-
- So mote it be!
-
- Ho the rebels
- Hail the carnage,
- See the piles of stinking slain
- Where the Christians met their Masters
- South of Ulan, on the plain.
-
- So in triumphal procession march the Lords of Karnak back
- Tie their wounds and burn their dead before their bloody arms they stack.
-
- As in wild and joyous revelry carillon and cymbals ring
- Giving homage to our chosen Gods and glory to our King.
-
- For on the littered plain this day was cleared an ancient wrong
- The infidels were made to pay and yield unto the strong.
-
- Yea, ruthless as the cleansing sea we crush the Christian might
- And now they lie enslaved before our revered Gods of Night!
-
- What mortal man can do to Man they did unto our sires
- But we, immortal, gathered strength from sacrificial fires.
-
- Reincarnated stand the host that bridged the gulfs of time
- Avenging what the Church of Rome had poisoned in its prime!
-
- We honored not a craven slave
- But followed one who deigned to brave
- And tread the curving, star strewn path
- Beyond our universe, the wrath
- Of Chaos slumbered, to our sight
- The darkness sheds eternal light.
-
- Now to the joyous sacrifice
- As cringing heathens pay the price
- By dozens and by hetacomb
- They taste the justice that was Rome
- Upon our altars, as we feast
- And give ovation to the Priest
- Whose slashing knife unstops a flood
- Of living, heady, salted blood
- To overflow the hallowed cup
- The Chalice held that we may sup
- The symbol of eternity;
- Our union, our fraternity
- Of mind and body, soul and thought:
- Our one is all, our ALL is nought!

- # "Lucifer" --- Not to be confused with the Christian deity of the same name.
- Many Latin scholars have a certain disquietude over the use of "Lucifer",
- "Lightbearer" as a name for the Christian Devil. Some Renaissance writers
- replaced this term with "Lucifuge", "Lightfearer". In the context here,
- "Lucifer" signifies all deities of rebirth, renewal and especially light:
- Lugh, Ahuramazda, Prometheus, Marduk, Be'al, Persephone, Sophia, Venus,
- Osiris, Jehovah and the ancient concept of Christ. Sadly, over the centuries
- many Christians have taken to worshiping their "Devil" under the name of
- "Jesus" and denouncing their "Christ" under the name of "Lucifer". After
- bearing false witness against the beliefs of others so long, these misguided
- people have come to attribute the doings of their "devil" to their "saviour"
- and the deeds of their "Jesus" to those of their "Lord of Lies". To break one
- commandment is to break all of them sooner or later. To bear false witness
- against the deities of others is to blaspheme one's own. --- Editor.

- From the Out Basket
-
- Here is a series of visualizations inspired by the Qabalah of Light developed
- in the 16th century by Isaac Luria. For further information on this approach,
- see "The Kabbalah a Study of the Ten Luminous Emanations from Rabbi Isaac
- Luria", by Rabbi Yehuda L. Ashlag, translated into English by R. Levi
- Krakovsky, two volumes, 1969 and 1973, Research Centre of Kabbalah, The Old
- City, Jerusalem, Israel. The presentation which follows is adapted from the
- Tarot classes of Bill Heidrick. Copyright (c) Bill Heidrick.
-
- This is a Qabalistic way of seeing the creation of the universe and the
- beginning of all things. In it light is spoken of as though light were the
- essence of the Creator. This is necessary so that the human mind have
- something to fasten on, not because light or any other perceivable thing is
- truly the essence of the Most High.
-
- Let your mind calm itself. Send away all the cares of the day, dispatch
- all your concerns from their inmost places. Relax even the feelings of self
- and ego a little. For this is the place where such things had not yet come
- into being.
- Close your eyes and let a vision of warm and featureless light come upon
- you. In all directions there is a soft glow of brilliant light. Even the
- idea of direction is meaningless, for only the limitless light exists. Hold
- that for a bit.
- Within the vastness of the limitless light there is a sense of glowing.
- This is not separate but it is tangible. Light is about you like a thickness
- in the air. Soft and calm, bright and warm.
- Within the light a feeling of imminence grows. There is no change yet,
- but you feel that a change must occur. The light is featureless but it is
- about to move.
- Within you builds a feeling that something must be changed. It is not
- enough to be in a place of perfect limitless light. There must be difference.
- There must be a place within the infinite different from all else yet still of
- the infinite.
- The limitless light changes. Far off there is no change, the light
- extends away in featureless brilliance. Within you the light gathers to a
- greater brilliance, near about you the light dims. At the center of your
- being the light forms a brilliant smooth point of radiance while all the
- nearby light seems to flow in toward the center.
- When the point is firmly glowing within, there is an established darkness
- about you. Far off there is a great and distant shore of light, as bright as
- it was before the beginning of the universe.
- Thus is the universe begun, a point of self and being concentrated in the
- center, about the point a great expanse of outside and something else. Far
- away, a great sphere of light that is as true as the point within and as
- limitless as the beginning. This is the circle with a point inside, the
- symbol of the invisible sun and of Keter on the Tree of Life.
-
- Parallel in Human Thought:
-
- When we are fully involved in doing, working and resting, it is as though
- there is no boundary between the world and the self. The trees bend their
- leaves to the same breeze that blows throughout all the world and moves the
- hair upon the head. This is the moment before creation. When something
- disturbs our revere, consciousness pulls back from oneness with the world and
- hides behind the eyes. Then the world with it's people, places and things is
- outside and the self is inside. Somewhere beyond what we see there is a
- knowing that all the world is one place, and we are one with it forever. Yet
- those things about us are separate seeming and perhaps even dangerous to the
- precious spark of ego that hides like a bright point behind the eyes.
-
- -oOo-
-
- Let yourself relax. Return to a peaceful state. In the center of your
- being there is a bright point of pure brilliant light. About you is darkness,
- featureless darkness. At a great distance from you is a vast and perfect
- light like the point at your center. This is the form of pure existence,
- light gathered in a single point from surrounding space with infinite,
- limitless light beyond. The circle with a point at its center, the sphere of
- existence with the focus of the existing one at its center. Hold that image
- about yourself.
- From the distant and limitless light above you a single beam of light
- begins to descend down toward the point of brilliance within you.
- The beam becomes a line of light, slowly crossing the darkness toward
- you. You can see it now, approaching you from above, carrying with it a
- contact to the limitless light from before the beginning, from the eternity
- before the point of light that is your particular existence became separate
- from the vastness of the limitless light.
- The line of light touches the point of light and stops its evolution
- downward.
- You were alone in the silence. Now you are linked with the eternal light
- by a single line of light.
- All the essence of all that can ever be is drawn into that line of light
- from the head of it, the place where it emerges from the limitless light so
- far away. All that you shall ever know descends to you by that single
- brilliant chord across the vastness of the silence, the silence that was left
- behind when the light that it contained drew together into the point of
- brilliance that is you.
- The light of the line from infinity descends no farther. It is a touch
- of the All Existing that reaches only into you to embrace only you, to
- establish for you one path from the beginning infinite to the ending infinite
- that is your particular existence.
- This is the image of the great Sephira Chokmah on the Tree of Life, a
- vast sphere beyond which there is endless and undifferentiated light. A point
- of brilliance at the center of that sphere. A line of the same brilliant
- light, a radius to the sphere drawn from above to the center point.
-
- Parallel in Human Thought:
-
- At times we dwell in solitude and see the world as though it was a thing
- wholly other, a thing apart, not of the self. Yet somewhere beyond that world
- is the greatness that holds all, the totality of existence that is one with
- the world and the self. In answer to this need, in consolation of this
- aloneness, a single awareness sometimes descends from the highest hope in the
- infinite. This ray of Truth passes through the great void of the outside
- world, lighting by its passage all the highest things in that world, showing
- that all the world draws its nourishment from the same root as the self. This
- line of thought and inspiration, this moment of mystic insight reaches from
- the infinite to the inside of the self. At the moment of its touching there
- is no more loneliness. There is enlightenment in the void. And the void is
- void only by comparison to the light.
-
- -oOo-
-
- A point of light at your center, darkness all about you. At a great
- distance in all directions the same light that is concentrated at your center
- extends away to infinity. Hold that image.
- From above, a line of light descends toward the point of light at your
- center. Let that be the beginning of this meditation. Visualize the line of
- light as a thin beam reaching down from the luminous infinity far above.
-
- Within the line of light are strange shadows and brighter glowings.
- Patterns seem to appear and vanish inside it. Some of the patterns illuminate
- the darkness a little to either side and grant visions of other realities than
- your own.
- From dimly perceived images in the line of light, you form ideas and
- learn to see the elements of your own world. Below the bright point of light
- at your center is a vast darkness. Rays of light descend downward in
- imitation of the line of light. These gleamings are the efforts of your mind
- to penetrate the darkness. By their means the darkness is rendered less
- empty. One by one the glimmerings of thought find more and more tangible
- images in the darkness. The mind extends by stages of evolving awareness the
- patterns of the line of inspired light. These images grow with understanding,
- first being very dim, then having rational form, then becoming almost solid
- and at last having the appearance of matter. This is the way in which we
- learn about the outside. This is the beginning of discovery of form through
- exercise of Understanding.
- The gradual outward spread of that part of self called form and
- perception is the function of the Sephira Binah on the Tree of Life.
-
- Parallel in Human Thought:
-
- When a new idea comes into the mind by inspiration or more outward
- instruction, at first that idea lays dormant. In time other abstract
- expressions of the new idea are seen. Later the new idea becomes a principle
- by which truth is discovered in the world. The idea becomes a tool, a power
- to shape and change the details of life. Finally objects come to embody the
- idea, and what came first as a flash of awareness in the mind becomes in its
- turn a thing of the senses.
-
- -oOo-
-
-
- Four flames burn between heaven and earth. Four tongues of fire compose
- the Holy Name.
- Yod is a single radiant light in the darkness of beginning creation.
- From this light all knowledge radiates.
- Hay is a triple flame. One tongue of fire leaps upward. One tongue of
- fire burns across the sky. One small tongue of flame dances within the other
- two like the light in a lantern.
- Vau is an elongated flame seeking to dart upward.
- The last Hay is flame within flame, burning forever in the darkness.
-
- When the spirit of the Yod moved to create all things, it first darted
- three ways and formed the first Hay. This first Hay was like a window filled
- with too much light. The light grew until it burst open the window and sent
- sparks of ungraspable truth flashing into the night. The sparks are the stars
- in the sky and the unexpressed dreams of all who live in the world.
- Then the Yod extended itself gently downward. It formed the Vau with its
- careful light.
- The scattered sparks were gathered to form the second Hay after the
- pattern of the first.
- This second Hay became like a window with a curtain so that it could
- contain the light without burning the eyes of those who look to it for wisdom.
- The Vau gently entered the prepared place and illuminated the universe.
-
- Parallel in Human Thought:
-
- When we first discover something new, the light of the discovery often
- blazes up in ecstasy and impossible hopes. This is like the Yod burning too
- brightly in the first Hay. Soon the new discovery burns away the new hopes
- and ecstasy passes into sadness and hopelessness.
- In time fragments of the new idea reappear like lesser inspirations.
- These do not lead to the great ecstasy of the first appearance of the new
- idea, but they are promising and full of hope in a lesser way.
- We become aware of ways to express the fragments of the new idea, ways
- that are possible and do not lead to the sadness of failure. From such things
- our life grows slowly and well.
