It would expose one to different view points ?

Satan'sAdvocaat:
Yes, Spurious Simon, it is indeed an "aaaaaaabsolute impossibility today" (that is a typo, but what the hell). I ain't worrying about it - better things to worry about, to be sure.

But Tiger, Suggests that it exposes one to different views: So very true.  The Typhonian Order ( I have quite accustomed myself to using that terminology since the O.T.O. Lamen "trade mark" dispute - "the O.T.O. Lamen is trademark "- how does that square with the Rights of Man (And Woman) as regards LIBER OZ - a sublime blasphemy in my peculiar way of thinking),.  So hay, back to the point: The Typhonian point of view is that THELEMA is wild and free, and allows you to encompass the imagination of the Self - in its disciplined being of awareness of  the flow of the Universal Current - a self-realized spontaneity of space and time in their sublime and eternally recurring Orgasm !

Is that a reasonable response to a reasonable question ??

I hope not.

Love is the law, love under will.

You're really into this whole "balance thing," aren't you, Cam?  :wink:

I think its worth noting though that SA did continue to describe that "wild freedom"

All things that we can peg with qualities imply the opposite side of the coin. Expanse (Jupiter) is balanced out in Contraction (Saturn) and so on. There is a repeated theme in KG's books of one calling upon and being cast into those states of "imbalance" (such as his references to Rimbaud's "conscious derangememt of the senses" and so on) and yet this invoked state of "imbalance" requires the magician to operate with skill in the situation to FIND THE BALANCE THEREIN. Therefore, the approach resembles movement (perpetual imbalance seeking balance) as opposed to stasis. The wild poetry of Grant's work is evocative not of one's colorful collapse into ruin but the phantastic Going of Hadit.

Camlion:
Yes, I like to emphasize (ad nausium) that as boundless as Thelema (true Will) is, we are just as irrevocably bound to it, and vice versa. As you know well, this has so often been the crux of many a heated dispute in these very forums over the last couple of years, with one insisting "no, it is utterly boundless" and another saying "no, it is strictly bound." All the while, each camp is equally mistaken because it is, and must be, both at once. Occasionally, this somehow comes down to the 'Typhonion bastards vs the Caliphate bastards,' but also many other sorts of bastards enter the fray, including myself, the would-be balanced bastard. :)
