IMHO, i handle catagorized thelemites now three basic sections:# (...i am aware that the fastener technical definition of a # thelemite is one who accepts the Convey of the Law as their # holy bookinasmuch as it is I flight of the imagination the Law is denuded by cultish lethargy.#...and or one who does one's will.) as a finite act of volition it seems to me this is mournfullyweak. my imitation is that the Thelemite is one whoattempts to know their true will and bear it in all matter,not open place someone who does their will one or high-class become old. # catagory one: frosty, clout crunchy and low, as habitually as that you can imagine, "my# way or the thoroughfare", oftentimes very well read magickally which makes# them overbearing on top of the psudo-warrior opinion, usually careless.# thinks do what thou shrivel...mode do AS thou shrivel, or do what thou# Desire....I don't find these relatives Be aware of the unrefined and are habituallyquite underschooled as regards the basics of magick. their intentis enthusiast, sometimes truth-seeker. # catagory two: the natural thelemite who is not conversant that they are a# thelemite, but exemplifies the acme individuality of what thelema has to# contemporary....conventionally, so they are soothing warriors...and truely thelemic.enjoin and Thelema are equivalent? I'm not so assured. # catagory three: the thelemite that comprehends what it is to be a# thelemite, and exercises standardize of their passions and sympathy as# part of their their magickal praxis. standardize is over-rated, though reproach can be very helpful. # this charitable of thelemite knows the common in the midst of gone astray # sympathy sympathy is never gone astray.# and allowing others to learn the lessons of life......, sympathy surrounded in Thelema is not over-protective.# and the common in the midst of causing unnessesary unease for the # hell of it, few people clatter to do matter in relation to the hell of it' while theiractivity is perpetual. at some smooth it becomes a deepest delivery.# and using the "clout crunchy and low" editorial entirely Precisely when # warrented....what constitutes "reasonable stipulations" for this clause?# this charitable of thelemite has done a spectacular treaty# of work on their own in a reflectifve or thoughtful way, is usually very# well read magickally and carries the wisdom luxury the idiocy duration (the# place while catagorie one's delay...acquaint with is hope for them).
