why do you constantly say "Great Work"
whatever do you mean by that?
Great Work -
My mission is to advance the populace of spiritual knowledge and sharing love
love raises the frequency of a person
The aura will get brighter and brighter
Spiritual Knowledge -
why is this important?
It is not really known as it should be
it is taboo knowledge
that is actually slowly changing and becoming mainstream
The term that Thelma uses
We must first understand what True Will is:
The concept postulates that each individual has a unique and incommensurable inherent nature (which is identical to their "destiny") that determines their proper course in life, that is the mode of action that unites their purest personal will with the postulated course that preexists for them in the universe.
The idea is that to the extent that one is pure in their will, one is carried along effortlessly by the momentum of the universe like an expert sailor allowing the current to carry the ship along its intended course with minimal effort. To the extent that one is not pure in their will, they are tossed about aimlessly like a piece of drift wood on a stormy sea. In other words, one's effectiveness or impotence in life is determined by how purely they adhere to their True Will.
In Crowley's ethical treatise "Duty", he identifies True Will with the Nature of the individual. This capitalized "Nature" may be compared with the "Perfect Nature" of earlier Gnostic systems, which was another term for the personal daimon or augoeides, usually referenced by Crowley as the Holy Guardian Angel. (For this use of the term "Perfect Nature," see Corbin's Man of Light in Iranian Sufism.)
Quotations on "True Will" from Aleister Crowley
The most common cause of failure in life is ignorance of one's own True Will, or of the means by which to fulfill that Will. - Magick, Book 4 pg.127
A man who is doing his True Will has the inertia of the Universe to assist him. - Magick, Book 4 pg.128
One can not do one's True Will intelligently unless one knows what it is. - Magick, Book 4 pg.174
Know firmly, O my Son, that the True Will connot err; for it is thine appointed Course in Heaven, in whose Order is Perfection. - Liber Aleph vel CXI - The Book of Wisdom or Folly pg.13
True Will should spring, a fountain of Light, from within, and flow unchecked, seething with Love, into the Ocean of Life. - Little Essays Towards Truth pg.76
The Great Work (lat: Magnum Opus), within Thelema, is the process of attaining Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel and learning and accomplishing one's True Will. The concept originates as far back as Medieval alchemy, and came to Thelema through Hermetic Magic informed by the Qabalah.
Bringing the world back to the state which the Creator intended.
Refers to the path of human spiritual evolution, growth and illumination
Thelemites view the Great Work, at least with respect to the individual magician, as being the quest for Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel. However, Crowley never lost sight that the individual Great Work contributes ultimately to the Great Work of the Universe:
The first condition of membership of the A.'.A.'. is that one is sworn to identify one's own Great Work with that of raising mankind to higher levels, spiritually, and in every other way. (Magick Without Tears, ch. 9)
so what is the Great Work?
in simple engish
raising mankind to higher levels of spiritually, and in every other way. (Magick Without Tears, ch. 9)
my explanation is this
advancing the spiritual knowledge
sharing my truth and love to the world
sharing knowledge with a positive vibe than a negative one - better impact on people. this is why i say with love
individualism is the core of thelema along with love is the law. doing your true will.
finding your true will is your goal
your mission in life, your calling, your passion
i encourage you to read and research along with me.
read all the books from Aleister Crowley that will greatly aid you in your quest of understanding where I am coming from. along with any other books you can find on Chakra, Aura, Meditation. etc
Thelemapedia is a great place to start too
