Aiwass

"Behold! it is revealed by Aiwass the minister of Hoor-paar-kraat."
''~Liber AL vel LEGIS I:7''

The Book of the Law being the centraly holy book of Thelema, makes '''Aiwass''' a very important figure. It is he who dictated the work to Aleister Crowley on the three days of the writing of ''The Book of the Law'' in 1904. For those interested in how the work was recieved please see ''The Equinox of the Gods'' chapter 7.

It is impossible to discuss Aiwass without referring to ''The Book of the Law'' for it is through that work that we learn the nature of Aiwass. It is certain that ''Liber AL'' is written in a style wholey uncarachteristic of Crowley. Careful study of the work has revealed that it is filled with manny qabalistic keys and other mysteries, many of which are still unsolved today. These puzzles accompanied with the hurried pace of Crowley's pen make it almost certain that the work comes from some form of higher intelligence communicating the message of the new aeon through Crowley. That intelligence is Aiwass.

Aiwass claims to be the miniter of Hoor-paar-kraat, a god the ancient egyptians knew as Harpocrates. Harpocrates is a form of the god Horus depicted as an innocent child. His mother is Nut, or Nuit in ''Liber AL''. This atribution further emphasizes the role of Aiwass in delivering the word of the crowned and conquring child.

Vision and the Voice

2004-09-23T20:16:27Z

Sokar:

'''"The Vision and the Voice"''' is an account of Aleister Crowley's travels through the thirty Enochian Aethyrs. It is considdered a publication in class A and B. The work depicts with strikingly detailed descriptions the visions encountered and the messages recieved as Crowley worked his way through the complex Enochian system.

The first two Aethyrs or Aires were recieved by Purderabo on November 14th and 17th, 1900 in Mexico. He found himself at this time unable to pass beyond the 29th Aire and abandoned the work. Crowley would later discover that the reason he was unable to advance was because he had not attained the grade of Magister Templi 8°=3°.

Crowley would not resume the work until 1909 when he traveled through the Sahara with his student Victor Neuburg, who acted as his scribe. The two walked through the desert invoking one Aethyr each day. Below are brief descriptions of each Aire taken from "The Vision and the Voice"
