Death: The Child of the Great Transformers


“That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.”
-H.P. Lovecraft, The Nameless City (1921)


"All the magical operations," continues Levi, "consist in freeing one's self from the coils of the Ancient Serpent; then to place the foot on its head, and lead it according to the operator's will. 'I will give unto thee,' says the Serpent, in the Gospel myth, 'all the kingdoms of the earth, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.' The initiate should reply to him, 'I will not fall down, but thou shalt crouch at my feet; thou wilt give me nothing, but I will make use of thee and take whatever I wish. For I am thy Lord and Master!' This is the real meaning of the ambiguous response made by Jesus to the tempter. . . . Thus, the Devil is not an Entity. It is an errant force, as the name signifies." -Helena Blavatsky, Isis Unveiled (Vol. I, pg. 138)
(Note that in the formula IAO, Horus the avenger is equated with Apophis.)


"April 9th. Started to read about 8:30 this morning. Sometime during morning lost idea of “ego” to realize All as Self. (Left notes for a couple of hours.) I find terrible difficulty in expressing the slightest idea of that which occurred during this state, yet it would seem of importance to do the best I can. That there is no soul struck me as a horrible blank. That I do not, and never have existed as “I” comes as a wonderful realization while the consciousness of the unreality of the “I” lasts. With the loss of “the ego” comes the consciousness that the whole universe of things and people is but a part of the State then arrived at. That if this little body dies, existence still remains in all the other part of the Universe and therefore the change called Death, occurring in different atoms, all the time, makes no difference. 
   Is there any reason why one should not look upon every thing and everybody as parts of Oneself, since one is equally willing to allow any other body to consider you as a part of their imagination only? It would seem that one tiny part—self——has been fondly cherished, while in reality that tiny part is but a reflex of the Whole which is really You, but even this state must in the end give way before the Power of Nothing." -Frater Achad, Liber 165 - A Master of the Temple


RA & SET in the stellar bark. Note that RA (201) + SET (465) = 666, showing the dual light/dark aspect of this formula.

     The formula of Initiation in all ritual systems from the Mayans, Egyptians, Indians, Buddhist, Native American, Abrahamic, etc. is that of the process of Death and Resurrection, or the cycles of sleep and re-awakening. Death is known as the Great Initiator, or the Great Initiation and its magickal conception as a gateway of Manifestation has been considered extensively, however, a more clear and concise collation of considerations needs to be made after receiving more insights and connections. The ego-death experience is the basis of the psychedelic experience, and the common thread of all Initiation rituals, showing the continuous nature of all being and its cyclical tide of manifestation and destruction, i.e. change - the basis of all Magick. Death and Magick are very much related, despite the apparent difference, both being different perspectives of transformation.

     "The Tibetan Book of the Dead is ostensibly a book describing the experiences to be expected at the moment of death, during an intermediate phase lasting forty-nine (seven times seven) days, and during rebirth into another bodily frame. This however is merely the exoteric framework which the Tibetan Buddhists used to cloak their mystical teachings. … The esoteric meaning, as it has been interpreted in this manual, is that it is death and rebirth of the ego that is described, not of the body. Lama Govinda indicates this clearly in his introduction when he writes: "It is a book for the living as well as the dying." The book's esoteric meaning is often concealed beneath many layers of symbolism. It was not intended for general reading. It was designed to be understood only by one who was to be initiated personally by a guru into the Buddhist mystical doctrines, into the pre-mortem-death-rebirth experience. These doctrines have been kept a closely guarded secret for many centuries, for fear that naive or careless application would do harm." -Timothy Leary, The Psychedelic Experience (1964), p. 12

     The ancient Egyptian conception of the death of Osiris and his daily resurrection via Ra, the Sun(-rise), who returns to conquer (sun-)Set, the prototype of the Prince of Darkness (Night/Nox) in Earthly-avatar Horus, symbolized by the Falcon or Child (Phoenix). Hoor-par-Kraat, or Harpocrates - 'The Babe in the Egg', is the 'Bornless One', the potent antithesis of 'death' who combines Horus and Set, known also as 'Hrwyfy', Hrumachis, the 'He with Two Faces'. It has already been stated that Death/Set would relate to the 'Maatian' aeon of the 'future', or that which is as of yet left to unfold, for the Hebrew 'MT' mut/maat means Death, the root of mort, or muerte. Reversed, TM implies Tem, or Atem/Atum, the primordial 'complete one', the Creator who corresponds to Maat, the End's of the Earth, the measurer of the matrix and Math itself, the creative menstruum of Manifestation.


TYET = 33 = DJEDI = UTCHAT
     Concealed in the Maatian formula given by Frater Achad in 1948 under 'MA-ION', the 'ends' of Manifestation, and OVAL / BITzH, 'The Egg', Ma-Ion would signify a breaking open or cracking in two of the Egg. 107 is 'XYZ', as well as the Egyptian 'TCHETA NEHEH', referring to the illimitable future. (See page 370 of Osiris: The Egyptian Religion of Resurrection by E.A.W. Budge.) 107 is the GOLD cosmic egg of ACAUSAL potential, and 'AQU', Egyptian for 'Magick' - THE MAGICK EGG which happens to be equated with LAM-THE WAY, a form of Aiwaz, the minister of Hoor-par-Kraat, the Egg-headed entity which is likely a self-idealized portrait of Crowley in his FUTURE-SELF form, and a prototype of 'THE GREY ALIEN'. (Note: 666 is the number of The Beast 666, Aleister Crowley - as well as 'THE GREY ALIEN FUTURE SELF', and the title of the portrait of Lam - 'LM-THE WAY', LM being the name in Sanskrit, with Mem final. Many have theorized this is the true nature of the 'Grey Alien', that they are human-cyborg hybrids from the future, or 'outside the circles of time'.

See the video below for a somewhat brief exegesis into the interrelation of these formulae.

     666 as the Solar-current represents THE RITUAL of death and resurrection/sleep-reawakening on a micro- (cognitive) and macro-cosmic level, and the TRUE KEYS OF MAGICK KNOWLEDGE are embedded and to be understood through understanding of the dynamic relationships and functions between the component parts, i.e. the cognitive and computational/calendrical/cosmic factors. The Solar and Lunar cycles and their effect on Earth gave rise to not only the growth of crops, but the growth in knowledge thereof and subsequently the knowledge to harness its power and travel amongst the stars. Technology is merely the understanding and manipulation of external, material forces, while 'magick' is the understanding and manipulation of cognitive forces, conscious, subconscious or unconscious. In a materialistic paradigm, all forces must have quantifiable values otherwise they would necessarily remain 'metaphysical' and at least seemingly non-existent, or 'hidden variables'. The objective of Occultism is to study the unknown, and what is by its very nature un-conscious, or unconscionable to us. But that something may be inconceivable in one way does not preclude that it may be perceived when apprehended from a new perspective or paradigm, as was necessary for the various ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum to be apprehended, or cosmological advancements to be made after the Heliocentric revolution.


     The ancient OSIRIS RITUAL, or RITUAL ORDEAL OF DEATH equates with THE BOOK OF THE DEAD'S RITUALS, 666 - the number also of the Stele of Ankh-af-na-Khonsu, 'The Dead Man'. (Note 'THE DEAD' = 33 = 'UTCHAT', the Open Eye which looks all ways [=AWAKE], also called the 'Sound Eye'.) Osiris' name also means 'seat or throne of the eye', or 'covered in eyes', a common archetype of the psychedelic experience. This mystical death is the basis of the Masonic coffin ritual wherein the candidate is put through a mock death ritual, similar to what has been said to be the primary use for the Great Pyramid; that since there were no mummies found therein, it was more than likely an Initiation temple. (See also A Voice Out of Egypt by Randall Stevens [1935], and others such as H.P. Blavatsky who reflect this contention.) This is significant considering I have found the GIZA PYRAMIDS to contain the Solar formula of The Ritual of Solar-illumination, along with numerous other measurements which reveal a deeper occult level to the 'pyramid texts'. The Egyptian name for the pyramid is 'Ikhet', and THE IKHET IS A RITUAL BOOK OF THE DEAD also = 666.



(See verse 458 of Liber OKBISh
     458-25. Awryd knew your play resembled the game of the stones that were lifted by magical means

    The verse seems to equate the miraculous nature of Shöa’s work with the erection of the Pyramid of Gizeh (see Comment to next verse). 25 denotes ChIVA, ‘The Beast’, who received Liber AL from Aiwaz [=25] in El Festat (Cairo), and who spent a night with his Bride (Ourda the Seer) in the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid. [See Crowley’s Confessions, chapter 46.] 25 denotes the bringing together of the solar-phallic power (12) and the lunar current (13), the sign of which is the Pentagram, the figure of five triangles, 15, the number of the Goddess, par excellence. The Oracle is BOL PVOR, ‘My Lord the Opener’, and ThBVN, ‘Intelligence’, from the Kamite tebn, ‘to be illumined’. which was precisely the condition  of the Beast in Cairo when he received the communication from the Intelligence known as Aiwass or Aivaz. The Oracle enumerates the word PROSTITUTE. Crowley was accompanied on this occasion by the most seminal of his Scarlet Women. But why (verse following) “THE” Pyramid? The Pyramid of Gizeh, unlike most others excavated in the vicinity of the Valley of the Kings, contained no trace of ritual and ceremonial furniture or hieroglyphic inscriptions. All it contained was an empty and lidless cask and a deep, abysmal, well. 
The main shaft of the pyramid was aligned to the star Draco.)

     This further implicates that the hidden inscriptions can be ascertained via the cells, or chambers of the number-field itself, the formations of the Ennead (9). Note that 666 is 9 x 74, or AVB, the serpent/Astral Fire x OD, the odic or magickal light. 458 is also תובנ, meaning 'Insight', 'To Comprehend', 'Understand', or 'Grasp' and is also ThUBN, 'Thuban', the name of Alpha Draconis. Draco(nis) and the Dragon have long stood for symbols of Immortality, and 458 happens to also be the value of 'CONQUER DEATH' and the CITY OF PYRAMIDs which is beyond Daath/Death. The other main shaft in the Great Pyramid is directed towards Orion, representing Osiris the god of the dead. Note also that DRAKONIS = 415 = DEATH, and the THAT which remains (See AL.II.9.) and 415 happens to be 43 (KHUFU) less than 458, Khufu being who the Great Pyramid was built for and the מָג, or Magus of the Temple. 458 is also the הכשפ אבנ, or Sorceror's Stone which as the Egg of Ma-Ion which I received April 2, 2011 revitalized the Ancient Tradition revived by Crowley and added to by Achad, Grant and others, extending the lineage through to modern times. 
     The Draconian Current is bound up in the recurring Egg/Serpent symbolism which appears in every religion and cultural tradition in some form and is a universal cosmogonic dyad. This OPHIS ET OVUM MUNDANUM, or the Serpent and the mundane Egg is also equivalent to the NECROSOPHY of Κοιμησις, 'Death', 'Sleep', 'Rest' and Hριλιυ, 'Hriliu', or orgasmic bliss. Their value, 558 is also that of H'ThNIN GDVL, 'The Great Dragon', or Crocodile. 
That the large crocodile could come from so small an egg was taken as a token of great power and reverence to Egyptians relating to the many Cosmic Egg myths.



     Sobek, or ShBK, is another Typhonian zootype of importance relegated to the dark-forces of the Underworld like Set and Apophis. ShBK in Hebrew as 322 equates with SHIVA and MEGHASWARA, and is the number of the Skull and Bones society which is another typical death-cult. Incidentally, Sobek with a Vav as ShVBEK = 333, the number related to the HIGGS BOSON of 'CERN, GENEVA', 333 being ChVRVNZVN - the GATEKEEPER of the Triple-state of Space, Time and Matter (XYZ/the 3 dimensions; Past-Present-Future; solid-liquid-gas), the 'dark-matter' context being related to 'Death', Change, the Unconscious, 'Nightside', which is both within and without, and altogether beyond. Sobek/Set/Shiva/Choronzon are each variant veils for the dissolution aspect of manifestation which allows for change, time, evolution, etc. and therein the duality is resolved.

     These Ophidian/Draconian types are intimately related with the Unconscious/Death frequencies, and help to show that from an objective perspective, though all things die - nothing truly is lost, but gained. In the words of Shpongle, Nothing Lasts... But Nothing is Lost. The fact each person in recorded history, and every life-form that ever existed died and yet life goes on given we have continued the processes shows that the extinction of the self is not the extinction of all things. We each contribute, more or less, to the totality in our turn and must give way for new forms to continue. Death, or Yama is but a resetting of Maya and holds the Wheel of Samsara. Yama is related to Mara, who is also sometimes said to be equated. Mara is the 'demon' that challenges the Buddha or Boddhisattva on the path to enlightenment and represents the vices, distractions and weaknesses thereof, but the name is derived from the root mer, 'to die', or death. Mara also means death in Sanskrit, and in pinyin Chinese, the reversal of Om, relating again to Mu - the Cry of the Vulture of the high mountains of attainment. (Note: PhOWA, the Tibetan practice of conscious dying has the thelemic value of 93, the MAHA-OM, or Great Sound of Manifestation. Remember that 93 is the Sikh Ik-Onkar / Om equivalent.)
 
     THE JOURNADA DE LA MUERTE, The Journey/Day of Death, the name of the region where the Trinity Test site took place and in which John F. Kennedy passed on his way to Dealey Plaza where he was assassinated, another incidence of RITUAL HUMAN SACRIFICE, shows the concomitance of this recurring formula (whether consciously known, or not) (See King Kill 33°: Masonic Symbolism in the Assassination of John F. Kennedy (1987) by James Shelby Downard and Michael Hoffman.) These RITUAL OFFERINGS stem back to prehistorical times and although being part and parcel with the Death-cults of the Osirian age, are still often performed to this day. The ideology behind the 'BLOODY SACRIFICE OF THE BEAST' is given in Chapter 12 of Part 3 of Liber ABA and it should be carefully read. See also Apocalypse Culture edited by Adam Parfey (1987). THE NAZI ORDER OF DEATH with its inversion of THE SWASTIKA, and the NAZI SCHUTZSTAFFEL also fit into this formula, albeit from a much more inverted and negative approach. See also Operation Paperclip where NAZI SCIENTISTS HIRED BY THE U.S.A., or UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT continued their agenda under various programs up to the present day to create A UNITED NATION of HIVE-MIND MIND CONTROL. (See The Hive-Mind Consciousness, Enemy #1, The Keys & The Power of the Beast, et. al.) This is the knowledge which when attained will prevent this qliphothic current from gaining foothold and expanding.

     Again, that death is not the end of all is evidenced by the fact that despite the death of all beings through history, life still goes on. Death is a necessary factor and known in various traditions as the Supreme Attainment. The absorption into Kether, Supreme One-ness, is the sloughing of all differentiation and ego qualities and is not to be taken lightly or expected to come too quickly. It is said Kether is beyond all human conceptual ability, but it can be approached if the human perspective can be subverted through death-meditation, or death consciousness as it is termed in the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and rightly understood as the true nature of Eternal Life. Below is an excerpt from the chapter on '22' in The Key of Destiny, part two of a series by The Order of Christian Mystics (also known as the Order of 15, i.e. O/Ayin - the Eye):


    "In The Key to the Universe we started with the circle which represented the Garden of Eden in which was found every tree that was pleasant to the sight and good for food, and in the midst of this wonderful unmanifested Garden (circle) was the Tree of Life (Dot within the circle).                   
     But while this Garden contained all the things needed for man’s evolution, he was forbidden to eat of the Tree of Life in its midst lest he die. We have shown [See pages 68, 107-9.] that this was not a cruel temptation nor an unescapable prohibition or “don’t,” for it only asked of infant man that he dabble not with this mysterious Dot within the circle, because in reality it was not a mere spark of light, but the end of a tremendous battery of force whose creative energy, if used under the guidance of his Divine Teachers, could be used gradually to develop and unfold all his God-powers. But in his early days of ignorance as to what life-forces were needed and how they should be used, this was too dangerous a center to be played with. Man was like a child who had been placed in a room with a powerful electrical apparatus which was to be used for his education and who, until the teacher could explain and the child comprehend, was told not to touch it lest it kill him; for only as he was directed how to use it by his teacher (the Lord God) could it yield to him its wonderful power with safety to himself.

     We have seen disobedient man, like a foolhardy child, eating the unripe fruit of the Tree, turning on the force of the unknown apparatus and suffering from the consequences. Like unripe fruit it brought sickness and death, and like uncontrolled power it created many horrid and malign travesties of that which was intended. And yet through all the resulting horror of creation perverted we have seen the superhuman patience of the loving Father, who planted the Tree and who let the Light shine as the Dot, never condemning or punishing his disobedient children.
     Through all the subsequent sickness, deformity and death which came upon them, as the inevitable result of their refusal to follow their Divine Guidance and their consequent misuse of their forces and the materials given them, we have seen the Father using all His powers of Divinity to help and guide, succor and teach His children, never turning a deaf ear to their cries for help.

      We have seen Him sending all the magical forces of the universe to turn the experience of their mistakes into good; to heal their self-inflicted wounds and cure their self-created diseases; to unfold them and draw them Godward, that out of the very suffering which their creation of evil entailed they should the more quickly realize the outpouring of Divine Love and Compassion, as a loving Mother nurses and comforts the disobedient child who has burned itself by playing with fire, in spite of her positive warning. In short, “God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son (the divine One Life) that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have Eternal Life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” The mandate “Thou shalt surely die” was a blessing, for to live eternally in the chaos man’s disobedience had created would have meant the eternal torment and suffering of imperfection. Everlasting Life must be the harvest of many deaths.

     By the help of numbers we have followed man step by step as he slowly and laboriously learned his great lessons; learned to recognize and appreciate the Divine Love that has provided every help for his upward climb and has never wavered in its forgivenesses; that has cleared his eyes, dimmed by many tears, that he may see the Guiding Hand ever held out if he would but look up and grasp it.  The wonderful perfected Eden is his destiny and at every step, often in the darkest depths of despair, has its vision been glimpsed by the dying, even by the degraded, so that in spite of all the evil man has wrought and all the impediments he has ignorantly placed in his path, as we have followed him through the numbers we have seen man grow wise by his very suffering. By this time he has grown obedient and loving, or at least the few have who have reached this point, which all will some day attain.

      Like John the Revelator, who symbolizes the spiritually illumined intellect of man, at last all shall see the New Jerusalem descend from heaven and will know it for the same perfect Eden, once lost yet ever vaguely sought for, now no longer a Circle of unmanifested possibilities with its Tree of Life but a Dot, for the circle has been squared and “the tabernacle of God is with men and he shall dwell with (in) them.” For now “It lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth… the length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.” [Revelation, XXI, 16.] The cross has been folded up into a cube.

     The inner esoteric meaning of squaring the Circle is the perfect balancing of man and woman or 22, each a dual being, and from their spiritual evolution evolving the reed or the Rod of Power with which the Angel in each may measure the Holy City. And as they find their new home and dwell in it, they find the Tree of Life has grown into a dual tree growing on both sides of the River of Life, and that it bears 12 manner of fruit, and yields its fruit every month for the healing of the nations. They find that the Light has descended and lo, the Lord God is the light thereof, “and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall  there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away…. Behold, I make all things new.”-The Key of Destiny, by Homer & Harriette Augusta Curtiss, Chapter 44 (1917)
(Note: 22 = BUDDHA, 'the awakened' one.)
