Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Sunday, 4 August 1901

 

 

Nirvana, Selfishness, Magical Power, Hierophantship, etc. 28 m[inutes].

     

After this meditation I arrived at the following decision: I must not cling to the Peace.[1] It certainly has been real to me, but if I make a God out of it it will become but an illusion. I am ready to receive the Magical Power as I should not abuse it. I must needs accomplish the Finished Work.

     

Buddha. 33 m[inutes]. The best Meditation I have done so far. I regard this as a real meditation; for 13 minutes quite forgot time.

     

Rose on Planes of  כ.ג.ת.ם.י.ת p[2] from Malkuth to Kether.

 

 

1—I.e. the Peace which had been enfolding him for so many days. See entry July 14th.

2—כ = Kether ג = Path of Gimel ת = Tiphareth ם= Path of Samekh י = Yesod ת = Path of Tau.
