Interesting. Reminds me a bit of Moonchild, with the sacrifices.The particular event in history .... could be used as a backdrop to a more mysterious and sinister story ...
What if the event .... was nothing more than an unholy experiment (planned by our mysterious third party).... perhaps a diversion .... to occupy our hero ? Perhaps his own bidding ... in a ploy to open a dimension ....
(I am just planting seeds here ...)
Whoa whoa whoa. You don't mean the BOOK Moonchild written by ALEISTER CROWLEY do you?!?Interesting. Reminds me a bit of Moonchild, with the sacrifices.

Great Book.Is that such a surprise?

The Book of the Law this original nothingness is referred to as Nuit. Nuit is the Egyptian Goddess of the sky, and was the wife of Seb and the mother of Osiris, Isis, Set, and Nephthys. She represented “the feminine principle which was active at the creation of the universe.” (Budge, pg. 120) To Crowley, Nuit was the sum total of all potential outcomes and possibilities out of which any individual substance was created. We find Crowley crying out to Nuit, “O Nuit, continuous one of Heaven, let it be ever thus; that men speak not of Thee as One but as None; and let them speak not of thee at all, since thou art continuous!” (Crowley, 1976, pg. 21) The act of the primordial nothing begetting the universe is described in the Law as “None, breathed the light, faint & faery, of the stars, and two.” (Crowley, 1976, pg. 22) Here the ‘light, faint & faery’ is referring to the One (Hindu Brahman, Gnostic Pleroma, Taoist Chi) and the two refers to the dualities of masculine/feminine, good/evil, God/Demon, Yin and Yang. This account of creation is strikingly similar to the one given in chapter 42 of the Tao-Te Ching:
And Crowley was in turn inspired by Walt Whitman.
Your avatar, is the best non-sexual avatar on the entire forum. The avatars require seperating into these two categories, their likability derive from two seperate places.Space aliens picked some people up, brought them back after an intense adventure.... the space aliens gave them some CRAZY acid, and this Alien LSD was distributed... and balls were tripped
Yes my brother ... but the puzzle game I played with Daath involved the origin of a certain passage.And Crowley was in turn inspired by Walt Whitman.
Thanks dude it's been sitting on my desktop for a whileYour avatar, is the best non-sexual avatar on the entire forum. The avatars require seperating into these two categories, their likability derive from two seperate places.
But nothing! That passage is explicitly representative of Crowley's inspiration from Walt Whitman.Yes my brother ... but the puzzle game I played with Daath involved the origin of a certain passage.
Don't mention it. It's a very tantalizing image!Thanks dude it's been sitting on my desktop for a while
Yes and Walt Whitman came out of his fathers nut sack ... but that is not the reason Crowley was mentioned.But nothing! That passage is explicitly representative of Crowley's inspiration from Walt Whitman.
Ooohh, burn! LoLYes and Walt Whitman came out of his fathers nut sack ... but that is not the reason Crowley was mentioned.
It's an inside thing you are not in on.
Bullshit.Yes and Walt Whitman came out of his fathers nut sack ... but that is not the reason Crowley was mentioned.
It's an inside thing you are not in on pertaining to an earlier conversation. (with all respect to you)
In terms of The Book of Law ... technically it was written by Aiwass .... but that is not the scope of this discussion.
