“Know then, o my Son, that all Laws, all Systems, all Customs, all Ideals and Standards which tend to produce Uniformity, being in direct Opposition to Nature’s Will to change and to develop through Variety, are accursèd.

“Here is the Key of Success, and its Name is the Skill to make right Use of Circumstance. This, then is the Virtue of the Mind, to be the Wazir of the Will, a true Counsellor, through Intelligence of the Universe. But o, my Son, do thou lay this Word beneath thine Heart, that the Mind hath no Will, nor Right thereto, so the Usurpation bringeth forth a fatal Conflict in thyself. For the Mind is sensitive, unstable as Air, and may be led foolishly in leash by a stronger Mind that worketh as the cunning Tool of a Will. Therefore thy Safety and Defence is to hold thy Mind to his right Function, a faithful Minister to thine own True Will, but Election of Nature.” https://library.hrmtc.com/2026/02/12/here-is-the-key-of-success-and-its-name-is-the-skill-to-make-right-use-of-circumstance-this-then-is-the-virtue-of-the-mind-to-be-the-wazir-of-the-will-a-true-counsellor-through-intelligence-of/ #air #aleisterCrowley #book #book111 #bringethForth #circumstance #cunningTool #Defence #election #faithfulMinisterToThineOwn #fatalConflict #heart #hold #inLeash #inThyself #intelligence #key #ledFoolishly #liberAleph #liberCxi #LiberאVelCXI #mind #name #nature #noWill #ofAWill #quote #right #rightFunction #rightUse #safety #sensitive #skill #strongerMind #success #TheBookOfWisdomOrFolly #theMind #thyMind #trueCounsellor #trueWill #universe #unstable #usurpation #virtue #wazir #will #Word #worketh
