Aleister Crowley

    12 oktober 1875 – 1 december 1947

    Deze Britse occultist, mysticus en schrijver staat tegenwoordig vooral bekend om zijn occulte geschriften. Zijn werk duikt in diepgaande filosofische en mystieke thema's, met een stijl die vaak doordringend en provocerend is. Hoewel hij tijdens zijn leven aanzienlijke bekendheid en controverse oogstte, blijft zijn literaire nalatenschap voortleven op het gebied van esoterisch denken. Zijn schrijven biedt een uniek inzicht in de wereld van spirituele zoektocht en persoonlijke transformatie.

    • Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), een van de grootste magiërs van de 20e eeuw, heeft onder het pseudoniem Meester Therion in de jaren twintig in Berlijn lezingen gegeven. In het "OEFENBOEK VOOR ASTRAAL EN SYMBOOLMAGIE" zijn drie belangrijke lezingen gebundeld die de essentie van praktische magie behandelen. Deze vormen van magie stellen beoefenaars in staat om te leren werken met onbewuste, paranormale krachten, gedachtevormen, trillingen, niveaus en entiteiten. Door een westerse benadering van Tantra-Yoga kan men een verbinding maken tussen het uiterlijke (exoterische) en het innerlijke (esoterische), wat helpt bij het realiseren van het verlangen naar harmonie en volmaaktheid. Het beoefenen van magie kan voor beginners echter ook risico's met zich meebrengen, zoals hallucinaties en machtsmisbruik. Daarom benadrukt het boek dat magie alleen effectief is wanneer deze trapsgewijs en gecontroleerd wordt uitgevoerd. Slechts degenen die bewust, gedisciplineerd en in de juiste volgorde de instructies en oefeningen volgen, zullen in staat zijn om de onbewuste krachten in henzelf te leren kennen en te beheersen. Dit leidt tot een onbeperkte mate van evenwicht en vrijheid, beschermd door een "aura geladen met gedachten van afweer en beschutting tegen welke invloed ook".

      Liber 418, The Vision and the Voice documents Aleister Crowley's exploration of the 30 Æthyrs from the Enochian magick system created by Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley. Crowley experienced these visions in Mexico in 1900 and Algeria in 1909, which significantly influenced key spiritual doctrines of Thelema, particularly the theogony of the All-Father Chaos and the goddess Babalon. The text details the transcendence of the Ego by crossing the Abyss and achieving the grade of Master of the Temple. This new edition includes previously unpublished material, such as new diagrams, illustrations by Crowley, and his Algerian diary. Unlike other editions, it features Crowley's extensive commentary. Additionally, the collection includes works that complement the main text, such as Liber 325, which provides ritual instructions for evoking the Spirit of Mars, along with the first publication of a group ritual from 1910. Liber 60 recounts astral communications with an Adept named Ab-ul-Diz in 1911, leading to the creation of Crowley's Book 4. Liber 415 documents sex-magical workings from 1914 aimed at reviving the worship of ancient pagan gods, including The Holy Hymns to the Great Gods of Heaven. This compilation gathers Crowley's diaries from 1909 to 1914 into a single volume.
