| | About |
| | The Law of Thelema mandates that each person follow their True Will to attain fulfillment in life and freedom from restriction of their nature. | | | It is in this new aeon that the philosophy of Thelema will be fully revealed to humanity, and will become established as the primary paradigm for the spiritual evolution of the species. | | | The important thing is that each person has the right to fulfill themselves through whatever beliefs and actions are best suited to them (so long as they do not interfere with the will of others), and only they themselves are qualified to determine what these are. |

| | The Magical Diaries of Aleister Crowley |
| | A poet, mountaineer, traveler, novelist, editor, and reviewer, as well as an occultist and the prophet of the new religion of Thelema, Crowley can be seen in many lights. | | | We also see the foibles and insecurities of a complex man, not just the pompous, smooth writing of his most famous books. | | | He and Leah Hirsig (also known as Alostrael), his Scarlet Woman at this time, were living in a series of hotels in and around the city of Tunis in North Africa. |

| | At a time of despair, Crowley wrote, “What really pulled me from the pit was the courage, wisdom, understanding and divine enlightenment of the Ape herself. | | | In 1919, after seeking out Aleister Crowley due to her interest in the occult, she was consecrated as his Scarlet Woman, taking the name Alostrael, “the womb (or grail) of God.” | | | Only so could will be pure and perfect.” Hirsig's role as Crowley's initiatrix reached a pinnacle in the spring of 1921 when she presided over his attainment of the grade of Ipsissimus, the only witness to the event. |

| | The volume and quality of his spiritual writings is exceptional and builds the foundation of a 'religious' system often referred to as the Law of Thelema or simply Thelema. | | | Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) surely was and still is the most (in)famous occultist of the last century, whose influence on the occult science of our time is far greater than anyone else's (even than that of Gurdijeff or A.O. Spare). | | | Info on and pics of Boleskine House, Crowley's land seat in Scottland near Loch Ness, later owned by illustrious people like Kenneth Anger and Jimmy Page. |

| | FWIW, I'm doing a poll to see if the Thelemic community thinks secular humanism is compatible with Thelema. | | | I assume the Abbey of Thelema was supposed to be a "College of the Holy Spirit" as mentioned in Liber 52. | | | If a person accepts the law of Thelema, then they are a Thelemite, regardless of how their will unfolds, how long it takes, what mistakes they make along the way, or whether or no you approve of them. |
