I realize this is OTO_unmoderated and Thank You to those who answered my question about Lashtal.com I applied a little moderation and deleted the entire thread and will do so to MY top threads that dissolve into a forum for off topic unsupportable mumbo jumbo opinion slinging. I have no problem engaging in or entertaining intelligent and thoughtful on-topic debate or discourse on any of MY top threads.

Another Round of Legal Victories for the OTO

Sun, 22 Jun 2008 03:34:46 GMT

I just read this piece of news from Hymanaeus Beta today. And I was wondering what the readers of this community might think about it.

I'm excited to hear about the publication of the unabridged Magick Without Tears, and the restored Confessions.

As for the result of the Starfire legal case, perhaps it will help to sort out some of the confusion seen spread about our Order.

MagCloud: just in time magazine printing.

Thu, 19 Jun 2008 18:39:47 GMT

I saw this one in one of my various mailing lists, and thought I'd pass this along for those who may be interested in publishing a magazine (such as local body newsletters) but who don't want to deal with the overhead of printing and distribution.

The company is MagCloud, and they offer "just-in-time" printing for magazines. From their web site:

MagCloud enables you to publish your own magazines. All you have to do is upload a PDF and we'll take care of the rest: printing, mailing, subscription management, and more.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

It costs you nothing to create a magazine, and you set a markup to earn a profit above production cost. A buyer will pay an additional modest shipping charge (USPS first class mail).

HOW ARE THEY PRINTED?

MagCloud uses HP Indigo technology to custom-print each issue when it’s ordered. Printing on demand means no big print runs, which means no pre-publishing expense. Magazines are brilliant full color on 80lb paper with saddle-stitched covers. They look awesome.

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO PARTICIPATE?

You’ll need a PayPal account to sell magazines with a markup -- so we can pay your earnings! To create a magazine you’ll need to upload a PDF, which means you’ll have to create your magazine in a program that outputs high-res PDFs like Adobe InDesign.

To purchase magazines you'll need a credit card or a PayPal account. During our Beta orders must be sent to a US shipping address.

Clearly this does not alleviate the work needed in putting together a magazine in the first place. But for those who want to create a magazine for local distribution or for subscribers across the country, just in time printing has the advantage that you only murder the trees that you need to murder. Further, because they handle the subscription process, you can just worry about typesetting your content and advertising your magazine.

Just an FYI to those who may be interested...

Civility

Wed, 14 May 2008 08:25:24 GMT

I created OTO_UnModerated as a response to the increasing censorship / heavy handed moderation of the various OTO forums I belonged to (not just on LJ).

I had hoped to form an online community where the sincere expression of ideas wouldn't be stifled out of fear of retribution by the moderator (in this case, me).

I thought that as sworn fraternal brothers and sisters, we'd be able to self moderate and still have good discussions... at least good enough to make it rewarding for the forum participants. This has worked somewhat, but not nearly as well as I had hoped it would.

I see much more incivility than I thought I would with this group of people. Currently, we generate much more heat than light. I don't see the quality of posts / comments I'd hoped for.

I once thought that people didn't participate in OTO_UnModerated primarily because there is so much criticism of USGL/IHQ officers within. While I'm sure that still holds true for some people, the overwhelming message I'm getting now is that participation just "isn't worth the hassle".

I had a few options:

1) Lock the community. Game over.
2) Leave things as they are and hope for the best.
3) Be a more active benevolent dictator and hope that it improves the community.

I choose #3.

So here's the new policy: "Be Civil" subtitled (as much as you can)

Telling someone to shove something up their ass is not civil. Calling someone a lunatic is not civil. Same goes for telling someone to "shut the fuck up".

Is calling someone a liar or a hypocrite acceptable here ? That's a tough one. Pointing out hypocrisy is something I think has value. Where is the line drawn between personal attack and pointing out that someone is genuinely full of crap ? It's quite subjective. So attacking someone like that is rolling the dice on whether or not you'll get your post deleted or not.

Bottom line: We are all adults in this LJ Community. You know when you are trying to be civil and when you aren't. I'm not going to spend a lot of time debating someone about whether or not they are civil. No one pays to be in OTO_UnModerated and I don't get paid to moderate.

The goal is to foster more and better discussions here. I hope that you will all work towards that end with me.

RAISE THE RENT

Fri, 02 May 2008 20:41:32 GMT

" It combines monarchy with democracy; it includes aristocracy, and conceals even the seeds of revolution, by which alone progress can be effected. Thus we balance the Triads, uniting the Three in One; thus we gather up all the threads of human passion and interest, and weave them into an harmonious tapestry, subtly and diligently with great art, that our Order may seem an ornament even to the Stars that are in the Heavens at Night." AC CXCIV

I really don't follow the day-to-day activities of the outdated order any more, that would be a waste of my time. So, just when I think there is nothing short of setting up a compound in Waco or colony in Guyana that They could do that would "shock" me (actually, I honestly think that is coming), one of my many informants, working on an essay on jurisprudence within the order, called to my attention the 'old news' about the GT getting demoted, and the central party committee (i.e. Bill, Dave and their hand-picked sycophants) in the future deciding in secret on cases formerly relegated to at least *supposedly* judicial bodies. As near as I can tell, it was *my* case that alerted the gnomes of California that injustice might arouse anger and rebellion, so they are making sure that anything that doesn't serve their (IMO) personal interest in the future is handled very, very quietly.

So, to hell with AC and his "16. The Grade of Grand Inquisitor Commander follows. Here every member has the right to a seat on the Grand Tribunal, which body decides all disputes and complaints which have not been composed by the Chapters of Rose Croix or the Lodge Masters. Its verdicts are without appeal, unless a member of the Electoral College give sanction to take the case to the Areopagus of the Eighth Degree. All members of the Order, even of higher grades, are subject to the Grand Tribunal."

Read that again; that's ALL disputes and ALL complaints, all members being subject to it, according to the much abused Liber CXCIV.

We see here again the growing pattern of Antiquated, Inc replacing a once-noble fraternal body. Years ago the Powers that Be turned Point 21 on its head. It reads:
"21. Before the face of the Areopagus stands an independent Parliament of the Guilds. Within the Order, irrespective of grade, the members of each craft, trade, science, or profession form themselves into a Guild, make their own laws, and prosecute their own good, in all matters pertaining to their labour and means of livelihood. Each Guild chooses the man most eminent in it to represent it before the Areopagus of the Eighth Degree; and all disputes between the various Guilds are argued before that Body, which will decide according to the grand principles of the Order. Its decisions pass for ratification to the Sanctuary of the Gnosis, and thence to the Throne."

Clearly, this is unionization to be developed and prosecuted *by the members of given crafts, trades or sciences* to represent *themselves* as a body to the Areopagus and, the Head Cheese beyond. The Cheese and cheese puffs decided, on the matter of a proposed Writer's Guild (proposed by Bishop Gerald and myself, both published authors) that the decisions were to be from the Areopagus, not, as AC put it, "irrespective of grade, the members of each craft, trade, science, or profession form themselves into a Guild, make their own laws, and prosecute their own good, in all matters pertaining to their labour and means of livelihood." One reason we wanted such a guild was the silly notion that the antiquated order might not believe that "man has the right to write what he will" without getting kicked out of the club. Seems silly now.

So as I read the stripping of the Tribunal of what little was left of this check on power in the church bulletin 9.2, I turn the page and...why, they are once again raising fees "to keep up with inflation". Good grief, paying more for less in the midst of a recession where, between unemployment and underemployment we are looking at about 15% of those who haven't given up altogether on the above-ground market, where the aforementioned inflation has hit the typical hapless member of said order, the marginalized lower middle class (usually) the hardest at the gas pump, the grocery store, and even in their homes.

If you have to choose between these clowns and eviction, wise up people, and tell Bill to get an honest job and pay for his own "parsonage".

It's a Boo...

Wed, 19 Dec 2007 01:41:53 GMT

In regards to my recent unfortunate unmoderate post...

It is often the greater path of wisdom to judiciously apply to oneself the advice offered to others. I, thusly, have stepped back, re-centered and reoriented my communication style a bit.

When the essential intent is to communicate towards the greater good and understanding, I admit that it is not a good idea to post messages while in the throes of the pernicious drug Anger, especially if it is cut with the more common compound known as Self Righteousness. Under this influence I communicated more than the actually useful info needed, adding an unnecessary slap in a passive-aggressive manner, being cryptic as a matter of displaying intellectual superiority and to the detriment of my more valid points.

The rationalization that it should still be understandable, seeing that the audience was packed with folk who can expound at length on the obscure meanings in OAI or upon the vagaries of the OVAL RePaST, was, as any other rationalization, but an excuse for indulgence.

I sincerely apologize to the EC for opening them to snark about their lack of wisdom in approving an apparent lunatic. I sincerely apologize to the Valley wherein I serve (still suffering the deleterious effects of the years of lead up to and wake following recent higher degree expulsions) for in any way adding to strife with other members of the order.

Finally, as to those who may have felt insult in my use of the term "Hyenas," it is now clear the extent to which the overwhelmingly positive outpouring of friendly advice, lists of useful publications and referrals to helpful organizations have definitively belied my tediously overextended vicious-ravenous-pack metaphor.

What program would you propose for minervals that would heal such? A judicious recommendation of "Prometheus Rising?" and discussion to follow? Start auditing?

Or are you all more interested in being hyenas and vultures aggressively ripping at the corpse to nourish your desire to stir shit up, since that bruhaha makes you feel you are pretending your best to be vital and alive?

Expansion

Sat, 27 Oct 2007 17:28:05 GMT

It is beyond arguement that this is the most active OTO/Thelemic livejournal community of present and all time, thanks most entirely to the merits of our esteemed moderator baachuseternus, who is a first-class protagonist. But even still, there is ample room for more activity. And notivcing that it is quite obvious that nietche93 will never be a viable community, thanks to the rediculously silly, petty and indeed cowardly, and hilariously silly censorship imposed by the groups latest moderator thiebes, it occurs to me that oto_unmoderated is a fine place to discuss many (of course not all) writers associated with the occult/mystical in general, as well as Crowley in particular. Why not? Lately I have been reading Rabelais, of whom I've had this to say: http://rawmr.livejournal.com/67281.html .

Being as I'm not so good at picking out quotes by other writers, as I so rarely directly quote other writers, I personally never the less think I really would enjoy hearing other's favorite quotes and thoughts in these matters.

"A Stupid Kind of Mischief" essay

Wed, 29 Aug 2007 07:47:23 GMT

mendaxveritas has written an excellent short essay titled "A Stupid Kind of Mischief" that addresses the concept of Thelema-as-a-religion.

One of Crowley's statements about Religion

Tue, 21 Aug 2007 21:09:38 GMT

I think one can cite enough Crowley to construct a pro or con argument against how he would feel about Thelema as a religion.

I continue to believe that this ultimately becomes a matter of aesthetics; Where do you prefer to be in the continuum between Religion and Philosophy ?

In the new "Law is For All", pg 152 - 153 starting with the second paragraph after A.C.s commentary to verses 75,76 and 77.

"The type of tailless simian who finds himself a mere forked radish in a universe of giants clamouring for hors d'oeuvres must take refuge from Reality in Freudian phantasies of "God" He winces at the touch of Truth; ans shivers at his nakedness in Nature.

He therefore invents a cult of fear and shame, and makes it presumption and blasphemy to possess courage and self-respect. Her burrows in the slime of "Reverence and godly fear," and makes himself houses of his own excrement, like the earthworm he is. He shams dead, like other vile insects, at the approach of danger, he tries to escape notice by assuming the colour and form of his surroundings, using "protective mimicry" like certain other invertebrates.

He exudes stink or ink like the skunk or the cuttle-fish, calling the one Morality and the other Decency. He is slippery with Hypocrisy, like a slug; and, labeling the totality of his defects Perfection, defines God as Faeces so that he may flatter himself with the epithet divine. The whole manoeuvre is described as Religion.

(Emphasis mine)

Schopenhauer vs Nietzsche

Sat, 04 Aug 2007 18:12:16 GMT

I find it interesting that the liberal secular humanist OTO members tend to embrace a Schopenhauer-esque world view and that the "Crowlian" OTO members tend to embrace the various aspects of Nietzsche's philosophy.

Schopenhauer attracts people who see self interest as the path of unhappiness.
Nietzsche attracts people who see self interest as the best path to happiness.

In many ways, the philosophical differences between Schopenhauer and Nietzsche resemble the differences between Buddhism and Thelema. This also partially explains why the liberal secular humanists have trouble with "Crowlian" Thelema and see ceremonial magick and occult work as not "legitimate spirituality".

Ad hom. attacks

Fri, 03 Aug 2007 10:11:47 GMT

When someone attempts to recast Thelema as a philosophy compatible with secular humanist values, it isn't the person we need to attack but the person's ideas. I see plenty of ways to attack the arguments in an intellectually honest manner. Personal attacks are tools of sophistry, not genuine discourse. I also think ad hom attacks are unfraternal.

FWIW, All the OTO leaders I have met from IHQ to USGL to the various Local Body officers have been quite a bit above average in intelligence and with only a few exceptions, are cool, unique, nice folks.

I don't feel the need to call them names or denigrate their characters just because I disagree with them in regards to the philosophy of Thelema or how to run the OTO... even the ones who have de-friended me on LJ. :)

Regarding USGL claims of philosophic authenticity

Fri, 03 Aug 2007 07:21:08 GMT

So ash93 has had a "come to Jesus moment" where he has declared his departure from Crowley based Thelema.

Ash contributed an enormous amount of content to Agape over the past 2 years. Unfortunately, most of that content was written in an apparent attempt to remove Crowley's philosophic influences from the OTO and the members (and whoever else happens to be reading Agape) Thelemic world view.

If you shave the corners off the square peg of Thelema in order to fit it in the round hole of secular humanism, you no longer have a truly square peg nor authentic Thelema.

As John Crow pointed out here: http://www.thelema.nu/archives/169
Sabazius has been a big supporter of Ash.

So, unless we hear Sabazius say something like "Wow.. Ash turned out to be a non-Thelemite... who could have known ? Sorry for letting him publish all those articles in Agape !".. I think the OTO USGL webmaster needs to remove the following from their web page:

From USGL web page:

We have proven ourselves to be the genuine O.T.O. of Aleister Crowley, both in the U.S. Federal Courts, and more importantly by our demonstrated success in faithfully promulgating practical Thelemic philosophy through a careful implementation of Crowley's vision of the mission of the Order.

Ash worked tirelessly to remove Crowley's philosophic influence on the OTO with Sabazius' (and HB's) blessing. So the new text should read:

We have proven ourselves to be the genuine O.T.O. of Aleister Crowley, in the U.S. Federal Courts.

I think the philosophic inheritance of Crowley will remain unclaimed by any organization for quite some time to come.

Real vs Psychology

Sun, 22 Jul 2007 05:10:04 GMT

I am currently researching some practical magick work the purpose of which is immaterial to this essay.

I have set aside Liber ABA for a few weeks so I could finish Mather's translation of The Key Of Solomon The King and Sacred Word and Sacred Text, but I brought out the Big Blue Brick to help with the research. Finding Crowley much more useful for theory rather than practical magick I have also with me on the couch Regardie's Garden of Pomegranates and Golden Dawn the the tried and true Ritual Magic Manual by David J Griffin.

One of the recurring themes I see with many of the occult authors since Crowley is an attempt to rationalize the "Gods" as well as denizens of the Enochian and Goetian planes as parts of the human conscious (former) and unconscious (latter). I appreciate the importance of the study of psychology, and I also appreciate the contributions of authors who write from this perspective, I have many works by DuQuette and Regardie, but this conclusion seems oversimplified. It is pure hubris to accept that a soft science as new as psychology can explain away the experiences of occultists and mystics however they are documented. I am a complete neophyte, former skeptic and materialistic objectivist and I would never accept this psychological explanation for some of the physical manifestation I have been present for.

If I am to accept that I am a godlike being, then can I not also accept that other godlike beings exist in manifestations that are beyond easy explanation? If I am limited in my ability to extend my influence by my own ignorance could that not also be said of other entities on other planes? Freud and Jung had some great ideas but I will not extend all the powers of godhead merely to the dark corners of my unconscious. My own limited practice seems to indicate to me that authors who write strictly from this point of view miss a large component of the tradition. Going so far as to state that the early Qabalists were possessed of the "secret knowledge of psychology" (oh boy!) is as ostentatious as stating you part of an unbroken lineage of adepts stretching back before the Golden Dawn. I don't buy it and I don't know why so many people do.

Just out of curiosity

Sat, 02 Jun 2007 17:19:49 GMT

It was maybe 2 or more years ago now I believe, since the theft of the officer's jewels from GL's lockup. I recall the one who had the lj name "ph0s" at the time announced it. Even pronounced it as looking like an inside job. And were insured it was said for over 6 figures. Anyone know what has become of the insurance claim/money?

Get the word out!!!

Wed, 30 May 2007 22:26:31 GMT

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

I've decided to start a yearly journal of Thelemic Poetry --or poetry from Thelemites--as you will. The first issue is tentatively titled 'Sweet Words' (thanks to isomeme !).

Get the word out!

There will be no restrictions on submissions and the journal will not be limited to OTO members only. The deadline for submissions for the inaugural issue will be 7/7/7. However, submissions in general will always be welcome at askew437 at gee mail dt com . Spam will not be tolerated--at all. Please do your best not to send me huge volumes of poetry at once--use your best judgment of courtesy and remember that this will be a rather big job for me regardless of the rest of my schedule.

While the editorial policy will be firmly in my hands, I will always be open to suggestions. There will possibly be opportunities for guest co-editors, but please do not bother me with requests. I am contemplating a solicitation for quality, relevant advertising, but am not entirely sold on the matter.

Also, it is my will to donate a portion of the proceeds to both USGL and LVX Lodge (percentage to be determined).

So again, get the word out!!!

I'm looking forward to your exhibitions of strength and beauty...

Love is the law, love under will.
