Liber CCXXXI: A PERSONAL RESEARCH

 

Introduction

 

 

About 0.25. Start preparations to invoke Path of ט.

 

About 0.36: go in.

 

About 0.55: in spite of some efforts and invocations, see nothing but darkness. Was thinking of using cannabis, but first will try to invoke the Genii. I am sure contact was made, I went into the Vision, but everything is absolutely dark. Will banish now, and invoke again later, today or tomorrow, the Genii.

 

Done (the banishing) 0.59.

 

About 2.20 am: start preparations to invoke Geni of Dome ט. About 2.32 am, start Inv.[ocation].

 

2.30 am: I entered a "room" with an empty bed—quite inviting. I did not lie down. I banished and invoked by Pentagram and Hexagram, then by B-A-H. I then realized that I was in His tomb, and the tomb was empty. "He is not there"—he resurrected. . . . And only "passive love" (meaning doing one's will) will avail in this.

 

I will now anoint the Seal, banish, then invoke the other one.

 

Done and finished at 2.30. Will now analyze, and perhaps only inv. Geni of Carcer tomorrow.

 

Note: before invoking the Geni (who, of course, is A.C. [Aleister Crowley] Himself), had to finish the Seal; it was incomplete. There were two roses lacking, which were added.
