Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) war ein von besonderer Ausstrahlungskraft umgebener Schriftsteller, Magier und mystischer Philosoph, dessen gewaltiger Einfluss auf die Esoterik der Neuzeit unbestritten, jedoch immer noch von Vorurteilen und Missverständnissen geprägt ist. Crowley war weder „Satanist“ noch „Sadist“, sondern spielte immer wieder mit der Sensationsgier der puritanisch geprägten Öffentlichkeit Englands, um sich selbst in Szene zu setzen. Dies schmälert jedoch keineswegs die zeitlose Bedeutung seines schriftstellerischen Werks. „Liber Aleph vel CXI - das Buch von Weisheit und Narrheit“ entstand im Jahre 1918. Es wurde in der Form einer Epistel - eines langen, kunstvollen Sendschreibens - verfasst und gilt als ein besonderes Meisterwerk, weil es in äußerst komprimierter Form seine gesamte Lehre darlegt. Hiermit liegt erstmals eine deutsche Übersetzung vor, die vom Ordo Templi Orientis, dem esoterischen Orden, an dessen Spitze Crowley selbst stand, ausdrücklich autorisiert ist. „Wer sich mit Crowley auseinander setzen will, muss zu diesem Buch greifen!. Auch die Behandlung des weiblichen Faktors und der Liebe ist sehr spannend zu lesen.“

Liber 418, The Vision and the Voice is the record of Aleister Crowley's exploration of the 30 Æthyrs of the Enochian system of magick developed by Elizabethan magicians Dr. John Dee and Edward Kelley. Crowley obtained these visions in Mexico in 1900m and in Algeria in 1909. The are the source of many key spiritual doctrines of Thelema, particularly concerning the theogony of the All-Father Chaos and the goddess Babalon. They give an account of the transcendence of the Ego by crossing the Abyss, and the attainment of the grade of Master of the Temple. This new edition adds previously unpublished material, including new explanatory diagrams, illustrations designed by Crowley, and the actual Algerian diary record. Unlike other available editions of The Vision and the Voice, this volume includes Crowley's extensive and illuminating commentary.This collection features several works that complement Liber 418, The Vision and the Voice, giving details of Crowley's other advanced initiations and magical workings.Liber 325, The Bartzabel Working gives ritual instructions for the evocation of the Spirit of Mars, and includes the first publication of the actual record of the group ritual evocation of this spirit conducted by Crowley in 1910.Liber 60, The Ab-ul-Diz Working, gives an account of the astral communications with an Adept named Ab-ul-Diz in 1911 that led to the writing of Crowley's Book 4 .Liber 415, The Paris Working, is the record of a series of sexmagical workings conducted in 1914, designed to restore the worship of several of the gods of pagan antiquity. It includes The Holy Hymns to the Great Gods of Heaven.This book collects the diaries of Aleister Crowley for 1909–1914 in one volume.
Exploring the intersection of science and mysticism, this work delves into the principles of Scientific Illuminism as articulated by Aleister Crowley. It serves as a comprehensive resource on occult practices, philosophies, and the esoteric traditions that influenced Crowley’s thought. The book features a blend of theoretical discussions and practical applications, making it essential for those interested in the deeper aspects of occultism and its historical context. Rich in detail, it aims to illuminate the reader's understanding of these complex subjects.
Along with his written works, Aleister Crowley's legacy includes the organization he is credited with founding, the OTO or Ordo Templi Orientis -- The Order of Oriental Templars. This book contains key introductory material to this contemporary occult society, along with a history of the Order after Crowley's death. The format of this edition matches that of the first Equinox series published with Crowley as editor and includes magical instruction, communications to OTO members (all the dirt on court cases the OTO has been involved in), and original works of fiction and poetry. As part of this latter category, this book features an illustrated study of the works of underground filmmaker Kenneth Anger with a complete filmography. It could be argued that Aleister Crowley (1875-1947) anticipated the entire New Age phenomenon with his methods of teaching, codified in the tenets of the OTO. A rich melange of ritual magic, traditional spiritual practice, drug use, and sex, borrowing from many different cultures and traditions, informed the development of this lasting magical system. Although he's been popularized (and demonized) as The Beast, 666, his teachings have shown lasting value.

Eight Lectures on Yoga

Aleister Crowley was among the first Europeans to study, practice and teach Yoga. His intellectual hallmark—a philosophical synthesis of mysticism, magick and science—is rooted in his Yoga studies in the East at the turn of the last century. These eight lectures, written in 1937, set forth some of Crowley's conclusions after a lifelong philosophical investigation.Speaking in turns as mystic, magus, philosopher, scientist and seasoned adventurer, few sacred cows escape the Mahatma Guru Sri Paramahansa Shivaji, who even delights in poking fun at himself.The first series of lectures is introductory, and is entitled Yoga for Yahoos. The elements of Yoga are introduced, examined and demystified with a view to extracting the practical essence of Yoga doctrine. Yoga is also correlated to astrology and the Qabalah.The second, more advanced series of lectures is entitled Yoga for Yellowbellies. Here Crowley weaves Yoga into a conceptual framework that encompasses Western philosophy, magick and mathematical physics. He introduces relativity and quantum mechanics, and discusses their implications for ontology and consciousness.Crowley's humor suffuses thee talks, which are as entertaining as they are illuminating, and his wit elucidates concepts that elude rational explanation.Revised second edition, introduced and annotated by Hymenaeus Beta, Frater Superior of Ordo Templi Orientis. Includes a new author's portrait and index.
