The Hermit
Aeons of evolution
& grope thru the slime & the mud
Cellular convolution
of synapse, nerve, & blood
life's a maze in passage
must somehow end in good
So staff in hand I roam the land
in pilgrim's cloak and hood
& I long for that moment
of perfection
when my only thought
is serene reflection
How I came to dwell
In this hallowed mansion
at the end of Time
In the last dimension

CROWLEY CLASSICS
The Ouija Board: A Note
by The Master Therion
[Originally published in "The International" (New York) XI:10 (October 1917
e.v.), p. 319. Crowley's work nearly fills this entire issue, and he may have
also written the opening editorial, which includes the statement: "To read
"The International" is a liberal education, and the best of it is that it is
all done by kindness!"]
Suppose a perfect stranger came into your office and proceeded to give
orders to your staff. Suppose a strange woman walked into your drawing room
and insisted on being hostess. You would be troubled by this. Yet, people
sit down and offer the use of their brains and hands (which are, after all,
more important than offices and drawing rooms) to any stray intelligence that
may be wandering about. People use the Ouija Board without taking the
slightest precautions.
The establishment of the identity of a spirit by ordinary methods is a
very difficult problem, but the majority of people who play at Occultism do
not even worry about this. They get something, and it does not seem to matter
what! Every inanity, every stupidity, every piece of rubbish, is taken not
only at its face value, but at an utterly exaggerated value. The most
appallingly bad poetry will pass for Shelley, if only its authentication be
that of the planchette! There is, however, a good way of using this
instrument to get what you want, and that is to perform the whole operation in
a consecrated circle, so that undesirable aliens cannot interfere with it.
You should then employ the proper magical invocation in order to get into your
circle just the one spirit that you want. It is comparatively easy to do
this. A few simple instructions are all that is necessary, and I shall be
pleased to give these, free of charge, to any one who cares to apply.
It is not particularly easy to get the spirit of a dead man, because the
human soul, being divine, in not amenable to the control of other human souls:
and it is further not legitimate or desirable to do it. But what can be done
is to pick up the astral remains of the dead man from the Akasha and to build
them up into a concrete mind. This operation, again, is not particularly
profitable. The only legitimate work in this line is to get into touch with
the really high intelligences, such as we call for convenience Gods,
Archangels, and the like. These can give real information as to what is most
necessary for our progress. And it is written in the Oracles of Zoroaster
that unto the Persevering Mortal the Blessed Immortals are swift.
