"Do what thou wilt" - a brief examination of Aleister Crowley

[Monica]

And I find the word "realistic" to be incredibly illusory.

Yeah. I realized after I posted it, that that wasn't a good choice of words. :-/

I recall the discussion though, and I still stand in the same position thus far as it has held true within my own perception. I can only offer a Logos (account) of my own perception, I cannot choose perceptions for others.

Well that's exactly what I mean. There is still a distinction between 'my' perception and 'others' perception.

As long as that's true, then we aren't perceiving everything simultaneously, though we always have the potential to.

Thus, we may perceive certain past lifetimes because, for some reason known only to the Creator, we're on a certain trajectory which includes certain perceptions.

My trajectory, for example, included a Druid priestess, but it didn't include Crowley.

Anyway, back to Crowley...What about his manipulative nature? I've read that he was very manipulative. Was he confused about his polarity? Or was that the drugs affecting him? And, why did he claim to be 'The Beast'?

I don't know much about him and would like to dispel some myths, if they are indeed myths.

Sorry, I have cleared it now.

Still bouncing. Maybe you need to clear the trash folder too?
