Mysticism, Alchemy and Magic

"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law." This oft-misunderstood phrase, which forms the basis for Crowley's practice of Magick, is found in The Book of the Law. Dictated to Crowley in Cairo between noon and 1 pm on three success days in April 1904, the Book of the Law is the source book and key for Crowley students and for the occult in general.

This collection of rituals, practices, and exercises has been drawn from many sources; some have been preserved in their original state, and some rituals have been updated by scholars from various pagan groups. This deluxe one-volume edition has been specially designed to be read by candlelight.

This book is the introduction, the foundation upon which all further magical work will be based. Its simplicity, clarity and depth is without equal occult literature. The First part of Book Four deals with Yoga in a very sound and methodical manner, stripping it of the mysterious and glitter.

An admirable collection of Crowley's aphorisms-- Witty, subtle, and instructive paradoxes that challenge and exhilarate.

This edition includes Liber 777, Gematria (from Equinox Volume 1, Number 8). Introduction by Israel Regardie.
