Produktinformationen zu „The Sacred Books of Thelema (ePub)“
In 'The Sacred Books of Thelema,' Aleister Crowley orchestrates an enduring symphony of metaphysical concepts rooted in Thelemic ideology. Pulsating with archaic wisdom, the text is scaffolded upon an eclectic assortment of belief systems, borrowing from Eastern Yoga, Hermetic occultism, and the mystical teachings of prominent figures such as Eliphas Levi and Helena Blavatsky. Crowley ingeniously synthesizes these traditions with his own innovative insights, crafting an opus that echoes through the chambers of various esoteric practices, influencing Wicca, Modern Paganism, chaos magick, and even certain sects of Satanism. The compilation enfolds the seminal texts of the Thelemic canon, embodying a literary fabric woven in persuasive prose and ceremonial magniloquence, encapsulating the very essence of Crowley's spiritual stature and his quest to immortalize the cardinal precept: 'Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.'
Aleister Crowley, a towering figure in early 20th-century esoteric thought, was prolific in his contributions to occultism, poetry, and philosophy. His erudition was as controversial as it was vast, and 'The Sacred Books of Thelema' stands as testimony to his lifelong devotion to metaphysical exploration and the establishment of a new spiritual doctrine. His personal journey through diverse mystical practices lent him a unique perspective that culminated in the formulation of Thelema, an avant-garde creed shaped by his expansive travels, intense occult practice, and prodigious literary output, which remains influential to this day.
It is with scholarly enthusiasm that 'The Sacred Books of Thelema' is recommended to the ardent seeker of esoteric knowledge and the historical enthusiast alike. This collection is a cornerstone for understanding Crowley's contribution to modern spirituality and offers a profound glimpse into a revolutionary philosophy. For students of the occult, practitioners of ceremonial magick, or the curious reader, Crowley's work serves not merely as a collection of liturgies, but as a mirror reflecting the evolutionary trajectory of Western esotericism in the twentieth century.

Autoren-Porträt von Aleister Crowley, S. L. Macgregor Mathers, Mary d'Este Sturges
Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), born Edward Alexander Crowley, was an influential English occultist, ceremonial magician, poet, painter, novelist, and mountaineer. Crowley is best known for his establishment of the religious philosophy Thelema, and he considered himself a prophet tasked with guiding humanity into the 'Aeon of Horus.' The central sacred text of Thelema, 'The Book of the Law,' professes 'Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law,' a statement that has been foundational in Thelemite ideology and beyond. His body of work includes a collection of texts known as 'The Sacred Books of Thelema,' which are considered seminal works within Thelemic circles and encompass his religious and philosophical teachings. Despite being a controversial figure due to his embrace of diverse, and at times, antinomian lifestyles, Crowley's significant influence on Western esotericism and counterculture can't be understated. His literary style is dense and symbolic, often requiring familiarity with a range of esoteric traditions for full comprehension. Crowley's influence is evident in a number of areas within modern alternative spiritualities and has been acknowledged by figures in various fields of art and thought.
