Dwtw I think that may be a distinction without a difference. By not allowing the text to be corrupted, both results are guaranteed. The one result e...
Dwtw You seem to be asking about the pragmatic character of knowledge gained from gematria. Part of the answer is that it is no different than any o...
Dwtw In the case of Liber CCXX, it specifically says in the text not to change a letter. The common sense understanding of that injunction is that t...
Dwtw Not sure what you mean when you say it's not really math? Adding letter-values is simply arithmetic. Part of the reason for gematria is to ch...
Dwtw I didn't say he couldn't use it. I said using it was dubious from the standpoint of actually reflecting the letters of the word Stele in Greek....
Dwtw And your point is...? I'm aware that it is accepted practice to use a stigma as a 6, but popular opinion doesn't change the fact that a stigm...
Dwtw @herupakraath Thanks for the correction. it looks like an F but sounds like a V/W. I guess that makes it even more suspect when the ST combin...
Dwtw AIWASS is spelled by AC in Greek, not Hebrew; Alpha-Iota-Digamma-Alpha-Sigma-Sigma, so the S = 200. And he uses the digamma for the W, which wo...
Dwtw Even if you could justify that Boleskine = 418, it doesn't explain why a Thelemite should be expected to worship a house, or its name. "They sh...
Dwtw I love the CBS news headline: Cosmic rays help reveal corridor hidden in Egypt's Great Pyramid of Giza Because, you know, capturing cosmic r...
Dwtw Thanks for the reminder; this material is very thoroughly researched, and well worth reading. I will summarize a couple key points made here: ...
Dwtw It's a highly interesting word Abstruction. The prefix ab- means to 'off, away from', but the root 'struct' means to pile up, build, or to arra...
Dwrw Yes, thanks for this. I have been searching for Maspero's translations and couldn't seem to find them. I had a vague recollection he used the t...
Dwtw There is a certain paradoxical nature to the flawed Egyptian mythology of Liber Legis. On the one hand, if this were a transmission from these ...
Dwtw Sorry, but that quote does not make RHK a war-god. I am asking for a source that refers to Re-Horakhty as a 'god of War'. Montu is quite clearl...
Dwtw The issue in this thread is not about the Stele of Revelation per se. Its iconography is well established, and not all that unique. Nut (aka Nu...
Dwtw Montu was a very ancient god of Egypt, appearing in the Pyramid texts. Possibly reinterpreted in the Third Intermediate Period, but certainly n...
Dwtw This site notes three lectures given on the subject back in 2013: "The Crown Prince Osorkon endowed the cult of Montu. The temple of Montu...
Dwtw I believe the Stele of Revelation uses the typical iconography of its time, with the deceased ("the Osiris") addressing Re-Horakhte. So it's no...
Dwtw p. 243 has a caption with the reference, and images of Khonsu as falcon and child. I still haven't finished the LeBlanc, so I'm not sure of h...
Dwtw I'm aware of the names that are given in the text of the chapters. My hypothesis is that in the case of RHK, this name is a cover for Montu, be...
Dwtw In general, the falcon represented Horus as a sky god, and the name Horus is related to 'above' or 'upon' and in turn the 'divine kingship' of ...
Dwtw The following is my working hypothesis on the absence of Montu from Liber AL. The first clue is the name of the scribe itself. Ankh-af-na-kho...
Swtw Yes, I noticed that it is more a variation on the Lo Shu than on the Tree of Life. Are you saying you also deliberately placed the paths conn...
Dwtw Well it's pretty. And symmetrical. The Lightning Flash is 97, which equals אמון Amun. Litllwtw O.L.
Dwtw That correspondence seems pretty relevant to your argument. If the baseline is A-Z = 1-26, this in turn makes these 26 letters equal 351, mea...
Dwtw Thanks Lutz! now we have a new enigma to unravel. ROFL. Putting the pedantry and nitpicking about a plural versus a singular aside, there is ...
Dwtw It's too bad you don't see the value, when you have three proposed solutions in it, which is more than anybody else in the book! (your fourth s...
Dwtw Yes, your letter total was off by 1, and you missed the numeral 4 in verse II;49. BTW, I generally count the Cipher as its own separate thing...
Dwtw My first question is always: what does the entire text add up to? Because AC was supposed to not change a letter of it, so presumably every let...
Dwtw I have computed the gematria totals for Liber MA. There are five numerals in the text: 7 + 4 + 20 + 414 + 717 = 1162 = Katalysis in Greek...
Dwtw As noted in my podcast last week, Magus Time Episode 5 my first act as Magus in March 2020 was to listen to the instructions of my Angel, who t...
Dwtw This number 2579 is actually very interesting from the standpoint of Precession. We know that the Egyptians used (if not invented) the Decans o...
Dwtw What I meant was that this woman definitely lived before the Aeon of Horus, and died in the Aeon of MA. There is certainly ambiguity here, deri...
Dwtw Au contraire. You make an important point about the vibratory aspect, but you are forgetting that the letter Shin has two pronunciations, Sin a...
Dwtw The MA-ION commenced on December 21, 2020 Sr. André died on January 17, 2023. This is Day 757 of the MA-ION In Hebrew, מא–יון MA-ION = 757 ...
Dwtw Lucille Randon aka Sr. André has now died, aged 118 years, 340 days. She was the oldest Catholic nun to ever live. There is now no one left ali...
Dwtw @herupakraath, thanks for the responses. I also thought that the L might be a stand in for Law, for the same reason you mention. Supporting e...
Dwtw This is an interesting essay. One question I have is in regard to Boleskine as 418. I always thought that this spelling was concocted by Crow...
Dwtw I like that app-roach. and one would think since Laud means to praise that Applaud is derived from it, but curiously it isn't. Instead it comes...
Dwtw I'll take the qabalistic approach to this, and see how that goes. Verse 1:54 of Liber MA talks about the 'touch' and the 'style' of the lette...
Dwtw I won't be making scans of all the pages, but I think it's legitimate to check out this passage. So it is here appended. The verses were not nu...
Dwtw That's more or less what happened. I first read Liber AL in 1983, and sometime in those early years I memorized it. Much study over the years r...
Dwtw The 'appreciable difference' originates in the totality of words that are different in Liber MA compared to Liber AL. The most obvious examples...
Dwtw The 'point' was stated in the original post, which is the typical way one starts a thread on this forum. Litllwtw O.L.
Dwtw I have nothing to say about the 'nature' of the OTO. As for the 'nature' of AC's Theléma, it's a religion, a philosophy and a method of theur...
Dwtw Yes, I use Trigrammaton if we're talking about English. But it's curious that Liber MA says that capital letters increase the value, and I've n...
Dwtw No, I don't, and I'm not sure why you would ask that. The Holy Books of Thelema were scribed by the Prophet through the mediation of his Holy G...
Dwtw The passage you cite from verse 3:34 follows directly after the mention of Hrumachis. Examination of the holograph shows no break in the contin...
