Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Charles Stansfeld Jones
Titusville, Fla.
10/3/17.
Beloved Son,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
The more one says the law, the more one assimilates it. If I were not so tired, I would issue a pastoral. Make all these people use Do etc., and Love etc., in season and out of season, like a mantra. The effect cannot fail.
You are getting the Freemasonry right, so far as you go. I had your last effort, with sqs. and triangle, this A.M. But you must show yet more; show that this word is exact and complete, and that no other would do. Otherwise someone could invent a better word.
Please mail the enclosed. I want a double chance against ruthlessness.
I have been writing letters since 7; it is now three. I get no food in this place; I'm bored stiff, yet I feel limp. I am beginning to wish for a breeze. I guess the Equinox will bring a new current. I'm quite fed up; nothing doing on any plane.
Love is the law, love under will.
With all paternal benedictions,
Θ
