Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Rex de Arte Regia

Saturday, 15 April 1916

 

Opus[1] XIII

 

 

[Assistant: Alice Coomaraswamy; her astrological chart accompanies the text of the original holograph diary.]

     

The Operation began on 15 April [and went on] all the evening and [was] continued on 16th ditto. This Operation is the most magnificent in all ways since I can remember. The Orgasm was such as to have completely drowned the memory of the Object, but after, I found myself saying, 'Namo Shivaya namaha Aum'.
