MessageThe below were excised from Wikipedia:
"Crowley claimed to use a scientific method to study what people at the time called spiritual experiences, making 'The Method of Science, the Aim of Religion' the catchphrase of his magazine The Equinox."
"Like the Golden Dawn mystics before him, Crowley evidently sought to comprehend the entire human religious and mystical experience in a single philosophy."
"Crowley was a habitual drug user and also maintained a meticulous record of his drug-induced experiences . . . Crowley also experimented with psychedelic substances"
It felt like I was reading your biography.
I'm just kidding. Don't take offense. :)
In all seriousness, it appears to me that Aleister just
borrowed pieces from the Kabbalah and Eastern mysticism, and kind of
threw them together with ad-hoc beliefs along with his famous "sex-magick" stuff.
He seems kind of too scattered.
I'll stand by my original opinion . . .
but we need people like you to stir the pot once in awhile :)
For those that want to read up on Aleister Crowley themselves . . .
