“Conflict is natural, the unstirred milk becomes putrid. Without an enemy, Gods fire would cease. Without struggle, how could Gods compassion exist? Why do we fight our natural state. We are a way to experience ourselves. Welcome all things as part of you. Welcome the primal nobility of mankind as free to do as it wilt.”“
One must take some very simple, very deep word, which cuts at the heart of things. The Buddha did not attack caste and so on; he just said “Anata” and Hinduism crumbled at the touch. So, Mohammed said “Allahu achad” and upset the whole show. I say Thelema. Go on, therefore, preaching this and nothing else, in season and out of season. You won’t have to wait long for results. You must however be ready to explain that it does not mean surrendering to every whim, but the reverse. It involves finding out Who you are, and why you came into this world, and never swerving a hair’s breadth from that Will. It’s Ekagata plus Gnana, more or less. But simpler. – Aleister Crowley
