Correspondence from Aleister Crowley to Charles Stansfeld Jones
August 10, 1917
Sir Stansfeld Jones P.O. Box 70, Vancouver, B.C.
My well-beloved son,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
I have got your letter of July 30th and I do not quite know whether you will get the "International". There seems to be some restriction about it which I shall try to get rid of. I will let you know if anything turns up in New York in the business line, but I am pretty sure that it ought to do so, as everything will be upset here in a couple of months if not earlier.
I think I know what you mean by the Aquarian Age. I seem to remember the Occult Review advertising some book about the Aquarian Gospel. You must be very careful with people who appear to know half the formula. Very often they muddle it up completely, holding the most abominable doctrines in reality. The real test (to my mind) is whether the sense of sin is present. So long as it is, the man is a slave.
I have not seen [H.G.] Well's new book, though I have asked for it with the idea of reviewing it.
Love is the law, love under will.
Your devoted father.
