Re: Theos-World Aleister Crowley and Theosophy.

It is remarkable that both of favourite Crowley's mottos -Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law- and -Love is the law, love under will- are reflected in Krishnamurti's philosophy as in his notebook of 29th Nov 1961: "Love and there is no sin; love and do what you will and then there is no sorrow."

However, both seemed to forget what they once wrote. The former of his translation of Eliphas Levi's Theory of the Will, Axiom II: "To will evil, is to will death. A perverse will is a beginning of suicide." The latter of his writing while under the instruction of his Guru: "He who has forgotten his childhood and lost sympathy with the children is not the man who can teach them or help them."

From: Bart Lidofsky <bartl@sprynet.com>
Book of the Law:

I,57:  Invoke me under my stars!  Love is the law, love under will.
               Nor let the fools mistake love; for there are love and
love.
               There is the dove, and there is the serpent.  Choose ye
well!
               He, my prophet, hath chosen, knowing the law of the
fortress,
               and the great mystery of the House of God.  All these old
               letters of my Book are aright; but * is not the Star.
This
               also is secret: my prophet shall reveal it to the wise.
