chapter one cyber magic introduction an introduction to the abscissa mestizos of fretter stochastic OHS square root of negative 1 degrees by ourselves abandoning conventional literary format we present a tears and abrupt catalog of notes observations provocations spells and rituals to challenge any aspiring Magus with the wit and daring to play with them in celebration of our discovery of six dimensions and out of respect for Saint Aleister Crowley who pioneered the format we use here we now adopt the conceit of spelling the art and science of the Magus as magic commentary 1 we celebrate the beginning of a period of silence and our retirement from the roles of Magus and pontiff of chaos with the release of this volume we wandered the world for a decade and more as an eye seeking the secret magic of being then upon the realization of the Legion of our doing clarity dawned mastery of the temple wealth honors and power then followed more or less effortlessly you do not have to sell your soul to succeed with off white magic you merely have to recognize the existence of your other 7
chapter 2 why magic irrational we find ourselves incarnate in an awesomely vast postmodernist universe of accidental origin amongst semi-intelligent apes grasping for emotional gratifications power personal identity and answers to silly questions whilst trading these commodities between themselves yet the recommended gratifications and socially approved identities seem such dull travesties of what two whole kilograms of brain might achieve worse still the Apes gods and gods for all their cosmic pretensions appear as laughably parochial anthropomorphism zooms abstracted from faulty language structures compounded by the pack animal urge to obeisance contemptuous of all the rubbish on sale some attempt to create their own powers gratifications identities and explanations and call themselves magicians Hoover Asst then accounts for the best of it but why not as belief in one's capabilities self-evidently leads to increasing capabilities magicians consider it worthwhile to believe in their ability to accomplish the impossible even if they only succeed at this occasionally commentary to as nothing has any meaning other than that which we choose to give it we must either invest belief and meaning in something or abandon the game and go straight to oblivion in selecting beliefs we might as well go for maximum entertainment value and capability enhancement regardless of the so-called facts for if a human really wants something statistics count for nothing personally we attribute much of our success to a generous contempt for the apparent facts which a science education inadvertently taught us spot the treble and tendre
chapter three ourselves Multi mind some philosophers and psychologists bemoaned the disintegration or fragmentation of the self in the contemporary world we celebrate this development the belief in a single self stems from religious monotheism's having only a single God let us throw out the baby with the bathwater if you consider yourself an individual in the sense of indivisible you have not lived if you merely consider yourself as a single being capable of playing various roles then you have yet to play them in extremists the selves must allow each self a shot at its goals in life if you wish to achieve any sense of fulfillment and remain sane commentary three the authors apologize in advance for any irritation and confusion caused by the use of standard chaotic grammar which avoids all concepts of being and uses we instead of I in recognition of the legionary nature of the personal multi mind if you still do not accept the principle of multiple selves then consider why humans spend so much time at the temples of Venus Luna Bacchus and Mars trying to escape from their workday solar I selves in pursuit of love sex intoxication and violent entertainments
chapter four magic one science and magic the following ten chapters augment the technical procedures and general theory of magic given in our two previous books labor null and psychonaut and labor chaos the psychodynamic on stochastic OHS law any sufficiently advanced form of magic will appear indistinguishable from science commentary for our language structures impose casualty as a mode of perception casualty does not rule this universe humans label events which they associate together frequently as casually connected and events which they associate together only occasionally as coincidence personally we prefer to consider science as the study and engineering of highly probable coincidences such as the tendency of apples to fall downwards when dropped from trees we prefer to consider magic as the study and engineering of less probable coincidences such as the tendency of trees to drop apples when we ask them to everything works by magic science represents a small domain of magic where coincidences have a relatively high probability of occurrence half of the skill in magic consists of identifying probabilities worth enhancing
chapter 5 magic two magical attack attack by enchantment defend bayi vocation commentary 5 remember and use the fact that imagined magical attack creates far more casualties than actual magical attack however do not risk trying to divine the nature of a real magical attack for this will increase your vulnerability to it for defense evoke or create a general-purpose servitor cyber morph eidolon forget about such naive procedures as erecting national mirrors or shields these have little other than psychological value attack or counter attack vigorously with properly and civilized enchantments tailored to create highly specific effects the bullet rather than the grenade do unto others as they would do unto you but do it first such secrets we can reveal having retired from active service after many campaigns field Magus stochastic O's
chapter 6 magic 3 wand or Cup and chant long and divine short commentary 6 wander Cup if only one-fifth of your spells work you have real power if only one-fifth of your divinations work you have a serious disability spells cast well in advance can take advantage of the copious chaos in the interim but that same chaos will tend to reduce divination to a shambles
chapter 7 magic for sacrifice don't sacrifice invest by sacrifice the religious attempt to invest in spiritual agencies magicians know better they invest directly in themselves cutting out that middleman sacrifice only those things which get in the way of desire not the thing itself commentary 7 some neophytes imagine that you can conjure wealth by burning banknotes to the gods never insult money or blaspheme it by gambling unless you want to banish it if you want money then sacrifice it only on opportunities which will make money treat money as a major guy for its capricious and awesome power rivals that of even love and war money acts as a vast intelligent organism which lives by occupying part of the brain of nearly every one on this planet Mammon seems far more awake at this moment than at many gods we could mention
chapter 8 magic for magical medicine paradox if homeopathy knew how homeopathy actually worked it wouldn't work over standing homeopathy works by magic ie the parapsychological effects of operators intent homeopaths have to believe in bogus theories to achieve real effects commentary 8 the erroneous theories of homeopathy arose from the early purely empirical practices of immunization and an ignorance of Avogadro's number which quantifies the number of molecules in a given sample an understanding of the mechanics of active and passive acquired immunity which came much later would have prevented the development of such theories in the first place homeopathy has led magic back into medicine at the small price of demanding belief in a completely wrong theory by its practitioners spell yet regina k-- homeopathy apparently works well in black magic the sorcerer antidotes the target with a potentiation of itself perhaps we should not have mentioned this
chapter nine magic six the fourth equation of magic Edel onyx PE equals p + open parentheses 1 minus p closed parenthesis L exponential one over P we're all factors why on a scale of 0 to 1 and aligned PE equals the probability of accomplishing something by the use of and I don't P equals the probability of the event occurring by chance alone l equals the quality of the magical link commentary 9 the idle on a vocation conjuration let the magician fashioned a material basis for a general purpose cyber morph sparing no expense or skill let the magician physically carry the material basis at all times close to the body let the magician mentally carry the actual image of the material basis to the point of clear hallucination during any spare waking moment and if possible while streaming let the magician by profound effort of ritual fantasy and imagination treat the eidelons material and Asheville forms as sigils for a named semi-autonomous sentience the magician will create a reusable multitask servitor by such conjurations for which the first equations factor take an optimum unitary value thus only the problem of a magical link awaits solution in any particular spell of enchantment or divination at which the magician directs the idol on although the neophyte must learn the many and varied conjurations of the art and science the master will usually prefer the greater speed and efficiency than idle on cyber morph offers
chapter 10 magic 7 the fifth equation of magic 0 equals the square root of s squared plus open parentheses ICT close parentheses squared plus open parentheses I squared see a closed parenthesis squared plus open parentheses I squared C B close parentheses squared where line s equals spatial separation T equals temporal separation ordinary time a and B equals temporal separation in two dimensions of imaginary time I equals the square root of negative 1 and C equals Lightspeed note that this equation gives the size space time separation between events in a six dimensional Pythagorean form a non-local exchange of information can occur when sighs space-time separation equals zero due to the large value of C zero separations at terrestrial distances occur when T equals the square root of a squared plus B squared commentary 10 clearly squaring out the I factors arising from modeling time as an imaginary form of space and imaginary time as an imaginary form of imaginary space yields the following simplification of the full form of the fifth equation set to a zero value s squared minus open parentheses C T close parentheses squared plus open parentheses see a close parentheses squared plus open parentheses see B close parentheses squared equals zero quantum nonlocality then appears as the limited case where a equals B equals zero and information passes instantaneously along light cones magic then appears as the more general case where zero does not equal the square root of a squared plus B squared note that the fifth equation of magic models both space and time with the same dimensionality of three do not panic at your inability to see the other two dimensions of time you cannot actually even see the first one more of this later in the spin warp chapters
chapter 11 Magic eight no path enchantments in six dimensional sized space-time figure one below shows the three dimensions of time with a circle of Units radius in the plane of a B enchantments launched by a magician at T Sub Zero can act on the circle of probabilities at T sub one and may appear as changed conditions at T sub two when the magician arrives at T sub two conversely retroactive enchantments can have the odd effect of apparently altering t minus one properties so long as these do not have the effect of preventing the enchantment this can result in change of conditions at T Sub Zero commentary eleven enchantments thus land at a distance in the future twice as great as the radius of the circle of imaginary time probabilities with which they interact retroactively enchantment acts on a circle of probabilities at T sub negative one not shown in Figure one which then feed back to the present at T's Sub Zero as we can only observe the instant of the present and T any debate about what really occurred at T sub negative 2 becomes academic note that the probability circle increases in size with time by a factor of pi T thus if tomorrow contains a million possibilities the day after contains three million and chant along note also that an observer at T Sub Zero can in no way observe or interact with so-called parallel universes represented by the shadowy circle and imaginary time at T Sub Zero they may well exist but they may as well not exist if you see what we mean
chapter 12 magic 9 null divinations in six dimensional sized space-time figure two below shows the three dimensions of time with circles of unit radius in the plane of a b divinations performed by a magician at t sub zero to scry events at T sub two or T sub negative two can only succeed if the magician can identify a dominant probability amongst the plethora of information in either circle only divinations which reveal unexpectedly high probabilities tend to count as successes note that you can only scry the imaginary path of an event at T sub two not the event itself commentary 12 the very act of looking in divination can tend to distort the probability of what you look at divination can fuss act as enchantment in a way quite beyond the mere effect of self-fulfilling prophecy in the ordinary sense divination also becomes progressively more difficult with time as circles of probability and imaginary time enlarged we have never met anyone who could consistently divine accurately although a huge market exists for those who divine poorly or merely pretend to oddly the market for those who can enchant reasonably well seems Harley to exist probably because only those who cannot regularly advertise and those who can use it more directly to their own advantage perhaps the same applies to divination but we doubt it on account of the foregoing technical difficulties if in doubt always attempt to force the hand of chance
chapter 13 magic 10 retroactive and changement despite the ease with which this effect manifests in delayed choice quantum optics experiments some magicians still seem to have difficulty in summoning the belief to make this work on the macroscopic scale try this experiment wait until you have lost something rather than conduct further fruitless searches try and trick your subconscious into believing that you actually put the object in a particular place where you actually want to find it if you have to you can even use a location that you have already searched but in this case you will also need to make your subconscious recollection of having searched that place as hazy as possible then whilst occupying your conscious mind with some powerful distraction anger works well go to the chosen location and retrieve the lost object commentary 13 the septal mental maneuvers required for retroactive enchantment depend upon suspending conscious deliberation and memory and will fail if you try thinking consciously about your thoughts compare this kind of will perception coordination with the hand-eye coordination of catching a ball both work best when performed automatically if you ever succeed with a trick like this and you wish to retain and develop the ability without going mad then we suggest that you do not seek alternative explanations but that you accept the belief that the past has some mutability or better still that no real time past exists but that the imaginary time past contains probabilities restricted only by the observed conditions at the present moments
chapter 14 politics 1k ah cracy it has taken us two million years to elevate politics from the level of a monkey squabble to a level comprehensible to a six-year-old child towards the end of the 20th century the question what will succeed democracy seems as unspeakable as the question what will succeed monotheism would have seemed in the 14th century can nobody contemplate any advance upon the least worst of all systems tried so far the problem one we have to delegate responsibility for government as most of us have better things to do for most of the time to nobody who wants political power should have it 3d electable bodies retain power largely by maintaining the interests of the status quo and cannot act with the impartial wisdom that the luxury of time to govern could allow them to develop for elected bodies abrogate much of their power to people who act as monarchs and then waste much of their time and efforts in factional infighting commentary 14 if we have any faith in the stochastic principles to which we owe our very reality in existence then we should perhaps consider K ah cracy let us select a legislative body by purely random means let us reward those so chosen with salaries which put them beyond corruption let us replace one half of those chosen by random means every few years AKO cracy will contain representative proportions of all ages and sexes AKO cracy will have the assistance of a service to advise it hey ah cracy will free us from the conflict of party political ideology ideology excuse me with conscience and free us from the distasteful business of casting our votes amongst professional liars let a chaotic Radek government debate openly but legislate by secret ballot let the outcome of such vote act as the head of state rather than invest one person with this power we trust people's lives to randomly select juries as the only fair method should we use any less fair method for a nation or a planet
chapter fifteen politics - conspiracy theory nobody has unity of desire the cells within the person conspired to fulfill their instinctual agendas such conspiracies spiral upward in fractal self-similarity through domestic social workplace national and international scenarios yielding chaotic outcomes at all levels conspiracies exists all right but [ __ ] up mostly rules the outcome commentary fifteen conspiracy theory like casualty works fantastically well as an explanatory model but only if you use it backwards the fact that we cannot predict much about tomorrow strongly indicates that most of the explanations we develop about how something happened yesterday have like history in general a high [ __ ] content three things feed conspiracy theories paranoia born of the need for self-importance the need for enemies which comes down to more or less the same thing the desire for belief even in malignant forms of control rather than in the reality of pure chance chaos and accident
chapter sixteen politics three conspiracy practice any conspiracy whacking internal conspiracies will rule its world only through absolute loyalty to each there can the few control the many commentary 16 the extreme simplicity of these statements belies both they're awesome applicability to conspiracies at all fractal levels and the virtual impossibility of their achievement in practice the power of any conspiracy rises and falls in inverse proportion to the power of its internal conspiracies mutual guilt and bribery mainly hold together conspiracies whose ideologies command insufficient loyalty but this makes them vulnerable never join a conspiracy that you could possibly betray because if you could someone else will
chapter seventeen politics for Tetragrammaton of the Illuminati the diagram presented here in the book is of a cross at the top the cross at the North Point is lawful in the Northeast is Christic and the East is nice southeast Lucifer ik South chaotic Southwest satanic West nasty North West Jehovah --q law tradition order Staci's quo chaos innovation new ophelia nice altruism inclusive selfishness nasty narrow exclusive selfishness commentary 17 the occult technology of power the jehovah program of lawful nastiness dominates most psycho political systems from the nation-state down to the selves within a person such systems tend to maintain their stacey's quo at the expense of surrounding systems or of subsystems the Christic and satanic programs have little overall effect as they expand themselves against the Jehovah Graham and each other a few systems manage to display either permanent beastliness or saintliness the Jehovah Krogh Ram can readily manipulate and control both programs to suit its own agenda it can always use Saints and criminals only the Lucifer cram allows evolution as the Illuminati will know in recent centuries the dominant psycho political jehovah courses have come to realize that a limited amount of lucifer creative chaos can give them an edge over systems which do not possess it we aim to give them a great deal more than they bargained for
chapter 18 politics v liberty equality fraternity how sweet but sadly mistaken our old formula sounds unfortunately you have to discount fraternity once numbers exceed the maximum cohesive pack size of about a hundred and fifty persons this leaves equality at war with liberty and forcing equality to compensate for the monstrous unfairness of nature destroys liberty but total liberty leads to various forms of aristocracy and decay yet total equality leads to oppressive forms of statism and decay however equality of opportunity leads to a vibrantly chaotic and creative meritocracy commentary 18 creeping statism governmental interference in everything and the absurdity of parity and equality of reward regardless of accomplishment threatened the wealth and creativity of every nation and will abort any new renaissance in europe if unchecked no left-wing parties have any respect for liberal economic values and most centre and right-wing parties merely promote a pattern paternalistic statism does it thus fall to this self-reliance students of the ruggedly individualist philosophy of magic to champion a certain measured libertarianism
chapter 19 politics six the Illuminati in view of the foregoing theoretical considerations the Illuminati changed their tactics sometime in the 20th century preferring to conspire against this stacy's quo at all fractal levels simultaneously and to hide and generate the resources information and occult technology used for this by dispersing it amongst many seemingly innocuous enterprises and even into enemy camps leaking conspiracies provide the best possible vehicles for disseminating both information and disinformation the enhancement of the [ __ ] factor in any enemy conspiracy subverts it far more effectively than direct assault the Illuminati now structures itself amorphous Li and does not react to attack which would allow the enemy to structure the conflict rather an attacks in directions chosen at random and then runs away to fight another day many members of the Illuminati remain unknown to each other or unaware of their own membership do you believe any of this do you wanna make it happen commentary 19 we can only escape the bloody and ignorant nightmare of history by exploring alternatives which today look frightening Li weird and mana ties the eschaton any which way you can shun entropy but exploit chaos to the full
chapter 20 hearsay 1 spirituality magic will not free itself from occultism until we have strangled the last astrologer with the guts of the last spiritual master after decades of mourning anger at prevailing fashions and stupidity we present something to offend everyone in the following heresy a chapters never discard the negative roots of any equation always look at the dark side of any enlightenment commentary 20 only contra initiative absurdity commands belief never try to design a spirituality based on credible ideas start with something really idiotic denials of death and sex or magic often prove useful for example you can make yourself into a spiritual master very easily using the gobbles technique find that handy lie and just keep repeating it loud and long enough until people believe you language alone makes religion possible the nonsense equation two plus two equals five has the effect of a virus which will undo the entire edifice of mathematics if left uncorrected the false linguistic equations underlying pair editions of spirituality have a similar effect on thought exercise identify the erroneous linguistic equations which create the following ideas the supreme being higher things and spiritual values
chapter 21 hearsay two predictions one chemistry undid personality to physics undid determinants e 3 biology will soon undo most of our preconceptions about human beings for memory modifications will eventually undo the rest commentary 21 one psycho pharmacy reveals that personality depends entirely upon chemistry and thus consists entirely of chemistry in vino veritas indeed chemicals can make you schizophrenic ecstatic depressed extrovert introvert libidinous celibate aggressive or passive so much for the notion of essential self to today does not completely determine tomorrow much less next week we have awoken to chaos from Newton's sleep and single vision 3 if intelligent aliens haven't shown up within a couple of decades we will probably have made our own for memory defines identity think about it or if you can't try reading philip k dick
chapter 22 hearsay 3 our glorious simian heritage obeisance obeisance obeisance offering your arse in submission to the bully pub the troop kneeling before the chieftain penance and sacrifice to the shaman genuflection to the Lord confession to the priest prostate before the almighty ape in the sky commentary 22 the expectation that we shall receive reward and escape punishment by acts of submission lies deep in our pack animal brains and contributes heavily to our hunger for spiritual masters and deities it also and deers that other arse-licking pack animal the dog to feeble-minded members of our own species
chapter 23 here say for elitism our ancient Celtic ancestors said never give a sword to a man who cannot dance we might well add never give a one to anyone who cannot handle ordinary reality magic will tend to amplify whatever tendencies a person has it will increase general incompetence in life just as readily as it will augment competence although we have seen those who started off reasonably well organized and made a magnificent success of their lives with magic we have observed plenty of unpromising cases taking a powered nosedive to disaster with a cult assistance commentary 23 the best orders in the best books on magic make the neophyte work very hard to gain anything for in brutal fact nothing of any value comes from involving people who do not pursue excellence for its own sake in magic magic does not offer an escape from ordinary reality rather it offers a full-on confrontation with it which one can easily lose
chapter 24 hearsay 5 the abysus obsession sophistry paranoia the so-called oath of the abyss wherein the Adept vows to interpret every phenomena as a direct message from the ultimate reality to his or her self will indeed open several possible abysus but to no constructive purpose commentary 24 forget all that Golden Dawn and Philemon stuff about the abyss in crossing the abyss three major pitfalls await the traveler on the short and dangerous paths of magic the initial exhilaration of accelerating into each may for a time mask mounting failure in reality the abyss of paranoia pays initial dividends in self-importance but as this effective paradism takes hold things will really start to go wrong in a big way and enemies will fill the spaces you reserved for them the abyss of sophistry pays initial dividends in ease and leisure but the more you imagine yourself in eight lis and effortlessly magical the less effective you become see the following chapter the abyss of obsession pays initial dividends in a hypertrophied feeling of meaningfulness however no insight can have universal application and the area's it misses will eventually explode in your face
chapter 25 hearsay six dropping the wand does the power of the way you live cause magic to occur effortlessly do you use true will as an excuse to do nothing do you think that even when things apparently go badly for you your inborn spiritual wisdom and power have arranged an initiation for you despite your conscious desire they may well have but how do you choose to interpret the message do you no longer need your instruments and the technical procedures of spells and servitors have you declared yourself enlightened commentary 25 damn your weak philosophies a pox and a pestilence upon your despicable sloth and arrogance either give up now tear off those at depths stripes that you once won and join the New Agers or pick up that one and let's see half a dozen tight sigils launched with full gnosis before dawn
chapter 26 here say 700 white magic the phrase black magician unfairly applies to anyone who has taken your lover or money by occult means however self professed magicians seem universally unable to fight [ __ ] or even buy their way out of wet paper bags despite fantasizing constantly about becoming powerful Psychopaths the high point in a career of ultimate evil getting badly scratched whilst failing to strangle a cat haha those sanctimonious transcendentalists who profess themselves why magicians never do anything unpleasant without the very best of spiritual reasons but spend most of their careers casting ineffectual spells and imaginary evils to no effect a navour's pentagram scrawled on their doorsteps as a joke can keep one busy for several years Ulf white magicians require no spiritual or demonic justification for their acts and can take your lover or money without leaving you feeling bad about it commentary 26 such flippancy ill becomes fretter stochastic owes who allied himself with the off-white tradition on account of its superior sense of humor
chapter 27 hearsay 8 Magus chase the summary of a paradism in a word may please those who like simple slogans like Thelema or chaos but underneath it all a magician basically issues the challenge follow me upon assumption of the role of Magus within an order no stimulus to personal achievement can match the effects of a large body of people chasing you for blood no other motive for assuming the role of Magus has nobility but no honor attaches to those who will not retire when exhaustion or those who simply wait for their pursuers to lick their feet or crucify them the retired Magus may take the role of abscissa mas' applying the treasures one in the race at will and shouting encouragement and unwelcomed criticisms from the sidelines at those who fail to realize what they had signed up for commentary 27 we shall mention no names
chapter 28 hearsay 9 astrology some star signs may seem more inclined to believe in astrology than others in particular those either born or nurtured with their intellect in feces make the best candidates we once met an astrologer in a cast who had a perfectly rational reason for his broken like commentary 28 the pseudoscience of astrology has no place in magic astrology has already died twice once with the classical gods and a second time after the Enlightenment the complete failure of contemporary psychology to create anything other than a vocabulary of intellectual rubbish has encouraged astrology to resurface you can make money out of it easily you can get people into bed with it sometimes but otherwise forget it
chapter 29 hearsay ten new ageism I could love it if dolphins had as much intelligence as cats and stop trying to rescue sinking pieces of wood if crystals actually did something useful other than grease the wheels of commerce if the goddess had made animals taste less good so I didn't want to eat them if astrology could tell me anything other than the trite and the obvious if whales could do something more impressive than merely occupy a lot of space if corn circles came from enlightened aliens rather than Wiltshire pranksters on Cedar if Chandler's could speak in hieroglyphics instead of pops psychological twaddle if sharing caring non-sexist men could do anything useful in a crisis commentary 29 the hippies of 1968 broke the dress code and the sex code stopped the major war and created a healthy disrespect for all forms of authority mysticism and music functioned as enemies of the state in those days the starry-eyed idealist sub today have submerged their critical faculties beneath the tidal wave of slope of slop marketed by those old hippies who now sell a user-friendly dilution of their original enlightenment
chapter 30 hearsay eleven dog God in domesticating the wolf we have reduced the wild ideal to grotesque parodies of our and so with our God's commentary 30 and the transmissible mental disease of God ownership the victim acquires the megalomaniacal delusion that are being supposedly representing all of his most desirable characteristics actually rules the entire universe conversely in the more minor acquired personality defect of dog ownership the sufferer seeks emotional solace in a creature specifically bred to exhibit all of his own worst characteristics such as easily bought loyalty and fawning affection cringing obedience alternating with loud emotional outbursts and the tendency to bite the defenseless from behind and then run away and defecate in public dog owners prefer to play God to creatures like that rather than address their own personal and social inadequacies Deus s Kennison versus
chapter 31 hearsay 12 the Antichrist a vile abomination lurks an obscene luxury at Rome hired to an empire built on industrialized slaughter and bureaucracy without culture self-preservation at any price the Empire created a faith when its war machine failed then hitched itself to any bloody imperialism to extend its power the Lords of Albion fought it for three centuries and weakened but did not break it now in desperation it sends out its celibate minions to make the masses breed a Pyrrhic victory by sheer numbers self-preservation at any price commentary 31 the pauline church originated from the publicity work of a grotesque miser dynast fanatic who never met the obscure Jewish religious figure upon whose myth he founded a cult at the Council of Nicaea some centuries later a desperate Roman Emperor had the doctrines of the now diverse cults completely rewritten redesigned and institutionalized as any as an instrument of the state after the collapse of the military and the political wings of the Empire the religious arm began work on an empire of faith and fear the papacy has never hesitated to compromise its principles or to burn and torture its opponents or to ally itself with any bloody military adventurer recently including fascism if it thought it would profit ther by its vast network of confessor Inquisitor informers allowed it to survive as history's most grim and enduring conspiracy like any organism that has successfully degenerated into a parasite it now exists only to perpetuate itself at its hosts expense the cost so far 100 million killed and history two centuries behind where it might have advanced to
chapter 32 hearsay 13 fundamentalism do you feel confused by postmodern life unable to handle too much choice fazed by information overload uncertain about so many gray areas in need of some black and white certainties that you need some simple slogans to live by intensely jealous of those who can handle modern life that you need something to hate unhappy at flexible relative values that the past offers more promise than the future that the answer to your problems lies outside yourself then much that now pours from the fundament of the major religions may interest you schmuck commentary 32 just when we thought the antibiotic of rational enlightenment had finished off the worst of the theological viruses along came viral and new strains to pollute and disease half the globe ah well back to the lab we cannot allow the exhaustion of modernism to occasion a regression to pre enlightenment medieval worldviews esoteric thought frequently acts as a precursor of entire cultural cultural paradigms thus we must oppose the medieval ISM inherent in both fundamentalism and much of the New Age philosophy with a vibrant post modernist chaos ism or cow ism excuse me
chapter 33 heresay 14 filthy fun oral sex stands as an enduring monument to human ingenuity but the given proximity of the organs of generation and excretion explains much of human psychology and philosophy here in the diagram of across the north is sex in the north east is for the east is [ __ ] the south east is one the south is deaf the southwest is to the west is food and the northwest is three commentary 33 one hygiene neurosis to dietary neurosis vegetarianism anorexia etc three overeating makes as poor a substitute for oral sex as smoking does for breastfeeding for who has the most fun a those who demonize sex as unpleasantly dirty be those who demonize sexist pleasantly dirty or see those who go to the whole pig and reintegrate excretion into their sexual pleasures
chapter 34 hearsay 15 immortality if we had immortality we would desire amnesia more as we consists entirely of our memories immortality would have no point paradox immortality for the human race would destroy the human race if you meet an immortal list you know what to do for your children and for the sake of your children's children commentary 30 for those who seek physical or spiritual immortality have not thought the issue through precisely what of themselves do they want to reincarnate or to go to heaven or to live forever as an eternally persistent memory would prove intolerable we presume immortal lists really desire some form of continuity of consciousness however continuity of consciousness arises only through a trick of memory herein lies the paradox after a few hundred years an immortal list would have either an intolerable burden of memories enough to dull any experience or would have discarded or erased memories to the point where continuity of consciousness had become meaningless
chapter 35 hearsay 16 an unfashionable hobby for many Wizards with a simple wand and chalice you can perform the most chaotic conjuration of all launched an entirely new person and thus cheat death and throw bombs at the future we sometimes wonder if the obsession of medieval and renaissance sorcerers with creating various golems and among kalaiy arose from their distaste at the sheer chaos and unpredictability of the simpler method of creating little monsters commentary 35 we say that we have had rather than that we have made or created a baby as we cannot take responsibility for the unpredictability of the result however that very unpredictability supplies all of the delight and sorrow to the entire operation how stupefyingly boring we would find clones of ourselves if cloning becomes possible we do not wish to live forever our immortality sleeps soundly in a crib at the foot of the bed sometimes we have reconfigured ourselves with a liberal dash of chaotic refreshment and renewal while still alive and can now with the jest face death with equanimity
chapter 36 hearsay 17 machine and laymen exercise 1 try to specify exactly and in detail any human functions that you do not believe a computer could carry out even in principle exercise to try to specify exactly and in detail what humans mean when they use the word spirituality commentary 36 paradoxically an exact and detailed specification of any function will in principle allow a computer performing apologies for the trick question only the unspecified ball remains but let us not waste time with mystification although we could write paragraphs to produce plenty of it for fun and profit any half sensible answer to the second exercise qualifies you as a fully enlightened master congratulations you can now dress up with the [ __ ] of your choice and sell it
chapter 37 hearsay 18 hazards warning psychic hazard warning mental health hazard commentary 37 for fun gratuitous insults as a humanitarian gesture or to stimulate paranoia where appropriate the magician may print and display copies of these warning labels were appropriate standard international forum requires SCI hazard warnings and black on a red background and mental health hazard warnings and black on an orange background
chapter 38 hearsay 19 nothing nothing is true everything is permitted commentary 38 attributed to a son Issa ba note the multi-level oxymorons paradoxes in an anticipate the bottomless well of human ingenuity from which we have barely yet removed lid the flames of hell will doubtless lick out of it scorching many but only knowledge will awaken us from the nightmare of history we can find three obvious meanings to the first assertion one nothing is true judge ideas by their relative usefulness not against some imaginary finality to nothing is true nothing exhibits being but everything exhibits doing only the sluggishness of preception of perception and thought creates the illusion of being three nothing is true life the universe and everything takes an extravagant journey from nothing to nothing let us therefore applaud than nothing and relish its extravagance
chapter 39 hearsay 20 a couch haiku we believe in nothing the chaotic void within chaotic void without between nothing and nothing what Kanjar great Dilton commentary 39 any comment would more the supreme simplicity of this haiku contemplate its every new ins use it before ritual if desired

Chapter 44. An Ontology.
One. Non-being. For those who would like the short and dangerous path to Chaos's anti-ontology, nothing has been or nothing as being. At just your mind, you have a serious fault in the linguistic programs which structure your thought, which can have your effective intelligence.
Commentary 44. Attempt to describe being, and you can only actually describe doing. We observe only doing. We never observed being, existence, or essence. All phenomena ourselves include consists of processes, not all things. Processes. Language lets us down badly. The false concept of being acts as a word virus, scrambling our thoughts. For nothing consists of our other than what it does. "I think, therefore I think." That I think nothing more. The word virus "I am" lies at the root of the mental diseases we call religion. "I am that I am," said Ma Che, speaking of monks themselves as Jehovah, thus making for mistakes simultaneously. You cannot achieve a state of being, but you can achieve a surprising choice of states of doing. Nothing is anything else, although many events resemble or look like others. Every use of the word "is" conceals a loss of information and a reinforcement of narrow views and prejudice.
Chapter 46. An Ontology 3. Anti-spell.
1. The ritual to attack the spell of being requires cunning, use stealth and deviousness, and paper to assault the enemy's vulnerable extremities. Right without any tense of the verb "to be." Our aim is: "was," "be out," "demons out."
Commentary 46. The word virus of being does not submit easily to defeat. Yet on paper, after some struggle, one may start to roll back the enemy. As it retreats, you notice the enormity of the territory it once occupied. Vast areas of assumption dissolve into fresh and fluid thought. Every careless use of the word "am," "arc," "is," "was," and "be" reveals upon correction a wealth of ingrained assumptions and lost information content. I believe "Ark" meant to be "our" the archetypal mythological gods of magic. Usually took credit for inventing words and writing. Language structures perception, thought, and belief. Language thus creates our reality, but language can suffer from viral attack and initiate disease in our thoughts. Beware of the enormous sorcery contained in these seemingly innocuous anti-spells. They can render your binocular in the land of the blind.
An Ontology for Anti-spell - The Ritual. Having fought the virus of being to a standstill on paper, press the attack with spoken word. Eliminate being from speech. Precise speech begets precise thought, though most people assume the obverse. Pose to rephrase when temptation occurs and risk the appearance of wisdom. Rephrase all mistakes, if only mentally afterwards. Only extreme vigilance guarantees liberation from the negative magic of being. Group ritual in conversation: agree to prompt each other to rephrase all inadvertent and antic statements. Most of the nonsense that passes for philosophy, ideology, and religion then miraculously disappears.
Chapter 47. Battle Plan.
The table on here represents this part: 1. An ontology, going up to writing, going up to language, and ontology bends around writing into language as step two. Above language is thought, going around language. From an ontology all the way at the bottom is step three, going to thought. So we have an ontology, 1. Writing, language, thought, and then finally at the top is the model of reality. Anti-spells 1 and 2 should roll back the enemy and crumble the false model of reality. However, if resistance stiffens, launch anti-spell 3: eliminate being from your internal dialogue.
Chapter XLVIII. Practice 1/3. Conjurations.
From War as the Chaos Monasticism exercises, the wand proved so successful and popular, and no book on magic seems complete without offering something practical to challenge the aspiring magician. We present operations of the other three classical elemental weapons.
Commentary 48. As a spur to general proficiency and accomplishment, the current sigillum or as h aj al om square roots 1 degrees of the pact hath agreed that pact members who achieve a high standard of work with the operations of the four classical elemental weapons may present themselves, their records, and their instruments to a Magus of the pact for possible accreditation as Master of Arms.
Chapter 49. Practice 2. The Kaos Cyber Zoo.
Purpose: to evoke and use magical servitors. Daily observances: The lesser observances: 1. A proclamation of intent suitably worded to carry the pentacle at all times. 3. Visualized ettore evocation of servitors image or images onto the pentacle and dispatch of servitors has some work of divination or enchantment twice in each 24-hour period. The greater observances: 1. All of the lesser observances. 2. To further evoke asians spaced equally around a 24-hour period. The extreme observances: 1. All of the greater observances. 2. The replacement of one of the visualizes ettore eve occasions with a full ritual a vocation of the magician's devising to include a spoken address to the servitor, etc., etc.
Commentary 49. The magical operation of the pentacle or disk, as with all the other instrument, should take place over a pre-arranged number of continuous days, after which the magician may inscribe the instrument with a number marking the length and intensity of the work. Thus, "two and three" represents thirteen days of greater observance. "33" shows three days extreme, and so on. The magician may either evoke up to a maximum of four servitors, which may have only astral shapes, or commits the entire operation to the creation and use of a multi-purpose idol on having a previously prepared material basis.
Chapter 50. Practice 3. The Jihad of Chaos.
Purpose: to increase vitality and martial fervor and to attack offending forces. Daily observances: The lesser observances: 1. A proclamation of chaos warrior hood worded to taste to carry the magical dagger at all times. 3. Half an hour of hard physical exercise for half an hour's practice with martial arts and/or weapons. 5. Cow bolt 1 enemy target. The greater observances: 1. All of the lesser observances. 2. One half hour vigil with dagger and martial meditation before dawn. 3. Cow bolts a second enemy target. The extreme observances: 1. All of the greater observances. 2. A full red magic war ritual. This may include one or both cow buildings.
Commentary 15. The magician should, if possible, prepare the magical dagger by hand. Most conveniently, take the blade of a metal file and heat it's glowing on a bed of charcoal whilst fanning the embers furiously. Then allow slow cooling. Grind down to the shape of a blade with a second file. Reheat to cherry red and then quenched to retain / fashioned and fit a guard and handle. Past the years second file to a worthy colleague. To cow bolt a suitable anti chaotic institutional group, prepare a suitable sigil, visualize its astrally onto the dagger, and actually hurl the resulting missile at the target. Alternately, hurl the dagger physically at a symbolic image of the target with full gnosis.
Chapter 51. Practice 4. The Void of Chaos.
Purpose: to seek inspiration or augury. Daily observances: The lesser observances: 1. A proclamation of intent to access the chaotic void suitably worded to bear the chalice concealed with you at all times except during an exposure. 3. Perform a quiet amass of chaos be omitting the circle dance and using distilled water as a sacrament for after the mass performed chalice gazing for half an hour. 5. Expose the chalice during the hours of sleep. The greater observances: 1. All of the lesser observances. 2. A further half hour of chalice gazing. Devote half of the gazing time to achieving voidness and half to visions. The extreme observances: 1. All of the greater observances. 2. A second mass of chaos be preferably in the middle of a sleep period. And 3. A further hour of chalice gazing.
Commentary 51. The magical operation of the chalice completes the four workings of the classical elemental weapons. The magician should, if possible, create a chalice by hand, although this presents a challenge when beating a disc of copper or silver. Remember that both metals tend to harden with cold hammering, and thus periodic heating can ease the task. Inscribe the chalice with the results of the work, as for the wand, dagger, and disk. To perform a chalice exposure, leave the instrument outside the place of sleeping, somewhere secure like a roof or a garden, and perform augury or meditation upon any contents found afterwards. To seek voidness or flow of vision, fill the chalice with dark liquid and gaze into it.
Chapter 52. Spin Warp 1. Prologue.
Particle physics provides additional evidence for the existence of three-dimensional time. Visual analogy quickly fails below the level of the atomic scale, and thus the word "particle" will henceforth appear in parentheses. As the events which we call fundamental particle interactions, by virtue of our inability to break them down into anything simpler, do not really correspond to the behavior of tiny billiard balls or to anything else that we can visualize. Fundamental particles occur in two classes: matter (firm ion particles) and energy (buzzin particles). Within these classes, particles exhibit or do not exhibit characteristics called color, charge, and family. Interestingly, these three characteristics all have three possible values and three possible negative values. Additionally, all observed fundamental particles have a spin, and probably all form ions, but not all buzz ins exhibit a mass.
Commentary 50. The observed structure of the universe, and indeed our ability to observe it at all, depend crucially on the ability of firm ions with identical characteristics to resist interpenetration, whilst any number of buzz ins can occupy the same space. Thus, we cannot easily walk through brick walls, although we can't observe them at a distance. We shall address this profound mystery later on. By definition, a fundamental particle can have no component parts. Thus, its characteristics must either arise from more fundamental components that we have failed to find, or from the behavior of the particle itself. Particles have spins, which we can quite easily measure, for example, in the phenomena of light polarization. Spin warp theory contends that the particle characteristics of color, charge, and family arrive from spins having imaginary time components. We advance this hypothesis in support of our contention that imaginary time provides a powerful description of the magical phenomena, and thus has as much reality as anything else that we choose to call real.
Chapter 53. Spin Warp 2. Fundamental Form Ions.
The cascades of particles which appear in our accelerators and in cosmic ray impacts comprise only four observed fundamental form ionic types. One type of quark has a single unit of charge or anti-charge. The other type of quark has two or minus two units. Electrons have three units of charge or anti-charge, normally designed plus 1 or minus 1. Neutrinos can carry no charge, and only reversed spin characterizes the corresponding anti-neutrinos. All fundamental firming up ions have a single unit of spin, designated plus or minus 1/2. All firm ions carry one, two, or three units of the family characteristic, and quarks can have any one of the characteristics called color. Virtually all the matter we observe around us consists only of quarks from the first family, combined to form proton and neutron quark triplets, orbited by the first family electrons. Although large numbers of anti-neutrinos fly through our bodies every second to negligible negligible effect, anti-particles seem otherwise very elusive, and the universe would, on the surface of it, not appear to need any of the heavier quarks and electrons from families 2 and 3 to do what it does.
Commentary 53. Although particle accelerators can make form ionic anti-particles, and a few show up in cosmic ray showers, strong evidence exists for the virtual non-existence of any substantial amounts of antimatter in the universe. We shall address this puzzle later. The apparently superfluous triplication of matter particles and families two and three yields a strong clue that the universe has a higher dimensionality than the ordinary three of space and one of time. Although the rare heavy quarks and electrons play little or no part in the formulation of galaxies, stars, planets, or people, they seem to exist as a consequence of the six-dimensional framework which supports the behavior of ordinary matter, and spin warp theory intuition. Look out for some particularly exciting unpleasant applications of the heavy electrons in the initiation of nuclear fusion within your lifetime.
Chapter 54. Spin Warp 3. Fundamental Buzz Ins.
Buzz ins, or energy particles, transmit forces between firm ion or matter particles. In addition to the familiar quanta, or particles of light and electromagnetic radiation, which carry charge between charged firm ions, to other buzz ins called gluons and weak force buzz ins also carry forces. Conventional theory describes gluons as carrying a color-anti-color force, and it models at least some weak force buzz ins as electron antineutrinos or anti-electron neutrino pairs, and has suggested the possible existence of gravitons and Higgs particles to transmit gravity and confirm mass respectively. All buzz ins, with the possible exception of the unobserved graviton and Higgs, exhibit two units of spin, designated plus 1 or minus 1. Spin warp theory contends that all buzz ins consist of particle/anti-particle pairs, and that gravitation and mass arise not from as-yet-undiscovered buzz ins, but from spin distortions in the fabric of six-dimensional space-time.
Commentary 54. Physicists have long puzzled over one half of the answers yielded by Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism, which include light. Whilst the equations described the behavior of such radiation very elegantly and accurately, they also yield an aversive set of solutions for radiation apparently going backwards in time. An advanced wave theoreticians quietly discard such solutions for apparent want of any corresponding observational reality. Spin warp theory fully concurs with both sets of solutions to Maxwell's equations. It describes light, for example, either as quanta consisting of particle/anti-particle pairs, or exactly equivalent Li in terms of the anti-particle as time-reversed particle model, as a [ __ ] wave from a transmitter stimulating an advanced wave from a receiver, which travels backwards in time to the transmitter. Every little bit of light brings its own little bit of darkness with it to balance the books. This renders light intangible and allows it to pass through itself.
Chapter 55. Spin Warp 4. Hyper Spins.
If we designate the spatial direction of propagation, interaction, measurement of a particle as the z-axis, and the two directions of imaginary time as A and B, then in addition to the experimentally verified XY chirality spin about the z-axis, we can also have the following: 1. Spins about the z-axis involving rotation in time dimensions T over A, B, A over B, T, and B over A, T. 2. Spins about any of the three equivalent time axes (see chapter 56) involving rotation in space and time dimensions XY over A, XY over B, XY over T. And 3. Spins about any of the three equivalent time axes involving the Z spatial dimension and two time dimensions Z over A, B, Z over T, B, Z over T, A. These three types of spin correspond to the observed particle properties of color, charge, and family, respectively. As each of these spins involve a dimension and a plane, we observe two orthogonal phenomena: color charge and color magnetism for the first type, and electro-charged and magnetic charge for the second type. We await elucidation of the corresponding orthogonal vectors of the third family type of spin. For clarity, we omit the ordinary XY spatial spins and the three Z time spins which give family characteristics from the table in the commentary, and henceforth replaced the word "particle" with "spin warp."
Commentary 55. Types of Spin Warp. Here is the table as presented: Spin Warp Type | Color Spin Present or Absent | Charge | Named Spin Warp Type. One | Color Spin Present or Absent | Zero Charge | Zero | Name: Neutrino Spin Warp. Type Two | Color Spin Present or Absent | Zero Charge | Plus or Minus One | Name: Half Photons Spin Warp. Type Three | Color Spin Present or Absent | Zero Charge | Plus or Minus Two | Name: Question Spin Warp. Type Four | Colors Been Present or Absent | Zero Charge | Plus or Minus Three | Name: Electrons Z Buzzin Spin Warp. Type Five | Colors Been Present or Absent | Check Charge | Zero | Name: Half Gluons Spin Warp. Type Six | Color Spin Present or Absent | Check Charge | Plus or Minus One | Name: Quarks Down, Strange, Bottom Spin Warp. Type Seven | Color Spin Present | Check Charge | Plus or Minus Two | Name: Quarks Up, Charm, Top Spin Warp. Type Eight | Color Spin Present or Absent | Check Charge | Plus or Minus Three | Name: Question Mark Spin Warps Three and Eight await discovery. Spin warp three awaits discovery. The Z buzzin consists of an electron-anti-electron pair, but spin warp eight probably requires more energy for its creation in firm ionic or bosonic form than current devices can deliver. We have yet to discover any fundamental form ionic spin Worf carrying more than one of the three color spins. Energy requirements again probably prohibit this.
Chapter 56. Spin Warp 5. The Indistinguishability Principle.
Although we can define arbitrary axes to separate space into three dimensions, we must never forget the arbitrary nature of such convenient instinct sheens. Height at the poles of the earth lies orthogonal to height at the equator, for example. The universe as a whole does not appear to favor any particle spatial direction. An analogous situation exists with respect to time, except that with the three dimensions of time, we have no perceptual equipment or instruments with which to define coordinate axes, as all perceptual equipment or instruments only register instance of "now." We can only measure or estimate scalar quantities of time, such as plus 10 minutes or 10 minutes ago. Thus, when we examine the hyper spins of the fundamental spin warps, we have no reference direction with which to discriminate among T, A, and B. All temporal vectors have the same scalar values to us, although they will profoundly affect spin warp interactions. So, for example, we cannot distinguish which spins about the z-axis (T over A, B, A over B, T, or B over A, T) give rise to the arbitrarily this is designated red, green, or blue type of strong nuclear interaction. This indistinguishability has profound philosophical consequences.
Commentary 56. Heisenberg's celebrated uncertainty principle at first appeared merely to set a limit on possible knowledge. Subsequent investigations showed that various pairs of characteristics suffered from the same uncertainty relationship. Soon it became apparent that the universe could only do what it does if and only if uncertainty applied to the phenomena themselves, rather than to limits on our ability to perceive them. Thus, uncertainty became elevated to full indeterminance e. Casualty died, and chaos measurable only by probability ruled the universe. Now, in terms of the indistinguishability principle, the behavior of the universe appears chaotic because we have no perceptual equipment or instruments to distinguish among the three temporal dimensions, whose collective effect thus appears to us as probability. If, as appears the case, the universe itself makes no distinction, then chaos reigns, and we can define magic as the science and art of forcing time into desired patterns by will and perception. Towards the close of the 20th century, it appears to the best of our understanding that we inhabit an indifferent, if not hostile, universe devoid of any justice or meaning other than that which we choose to create. Thus, it falls to all of us to create these things, or the reverse of these things, and to accept or to attempt to modify the consequences. No truth, every possibility.
Chapter 57. Spin Warp 6. Exclusion.
The Z time family spins of all spin warps correspond to their spatial displacements in the direction of propagation over interaction over measured. The magnitude one, two, or three of this spin do you know its family group. Only the sign of the spin denotes the orientation of the Z T spin only. Thus, fermion matter spin warps have a spatial displacement and resist interpenetration, preventing you from walking through brick walls. Buzzin energy spin warps have family spin-anti-spin configurations which negate their spatial displacement, allowing any amount of radiation to occupy the same place, and thus allowing you to see across the room, or to see Andromeda, or to pack as many photons into a laser beam as you can afford. Imaginary time makes all this possible. Quod erat demonstrandum, hopefully.
Commentary 57. Physicists who have read this far with mounting paradism strain may now want to see some blood, and surviving magicians may perhaps question the point of the whole extravagant detour. For the physicists, we offer the potentially testable prediction that neutrinos will not mutually annihilate against anti-neutrinos, but that both neutrinos and anti-neutrinos will only mutually annihilate against themselves and head-on collisions. This may well explain the neutrino deficit. We also offer the intuition that the total number of all spins in the universe remains constant at zero. This looks much less ugly than a matter-antimatter symmetry. We hope that we have offered modern magicians evidence for a believable explanation of how magic can happen. Personally, we have to admit that we need it very badly in the scientific age. Mystics may find something of interest in the afterword overleaf.
Chapter 58. Spin Warp 7. Afterward.
Within spin warp theory, all three dimensions of time contribute equivalently to those almost unimaginable events that we can call fundamental particles or spin warps. Somehow, this symmetry seems to break when we apply measurement and thought to our apparent reality, and we end up with a rather diminished view of time. It seems that we can perceive only one point-like instant of time, and thus when we attempt to join up all those tiny points by effort of memory or expectation, we end up with a one-dimensional line instead of the mighty solid structure of bifurcating possibility that surrounds us. Do spin warps consist of distortions in the fabric of space-time, or does space-time arise from the effects of spin warps, or does the almost incomprehensible reality lie and the equivalence of these two statements? Events caught consist only of their doing.
Commentary 58. Time has width. Our inability to experience more than a tiny fraction of the length of time directly mirrors our inability to experience its width. More things probably happen in the width of time than our sanity could possibly cope with. Do you realize that in some of the futures of the moment when you read this, you could die or have an orgasm within three minutes, or maybe both? If you start now.
Chapter 59. About the Author.
The publishers requested this. The author values ideas above personality, and thus, for example, prefers to read science fiction rather than soap opera. The author experimented with mediocrity until the age of 25, and then decided excellence offered better opportunities. The author's still takes his view at 43, despite to frequent exhaustion. The author chooses to maintain an antique and idiosyncratic code of chivalry, honor, and heroism in an era largely devoid of such things, just for the antinomian fun of it. The author values unique uniqueness in an era of mass production and consumption, and value self-made, or at least handmade, artifacts above all others. The author captained the magical pact of the Illuminati's of Thanet eros for a decade and derived immense satisfaction from the progress made in the theory and practice of magic during this period, but grew to despise the slavish imitation and treachery with which many mortals seek to advance themselves.
Commentary 59. The author does not wish to burden others with the task of emulating the multiple eccentricities of his lifestyle, sexuality, dress, hair style, or manicure. We leave that to the Aleister Crowley's of this world. Thus, without photographs or style tips, we arrive at the end.
Chapter 60. Epilogue.
After five years of struggle, we wrote this book in a frenzy, to the accompaniment of thunderous music, partly for the exhilaration of doing so, but mainly in the hope of reaching a few persons of like minds. The magical pact of the of Thanatos, which body already contains a number of like minds, provides the following contact addresses: BM 84-82, London WC1N 3XX, England. Kaput Corvy Post [ __ ] 303 A 1 1 3 1, Vienna, Austria. IOT P.O. Box 17995, E. Ravine, California 92623, USA. We have a zillion things to do now, so don't expect another book until the next millennium. We will pass all correspondence to the pact, except perhaps for particularly pertinent comments on spin warp theory. Further items of interest: Labor Null and Psychonauts by Peter J.
