The Book of the Law
Liber AL vel Legis: The Central Sacred Text of Thelema
Beskrivning av boken
Aleister Crowley's 'The Book of the Law' is a foundational text of Thelema, a 20th-century philosophical and religious system. This book, supposedly dictated to Crowley in 1904 by a preternatural entity known as Aiwass, presents a poetic and enigmatic exploration of the nature of divinity, individualism, and human existence. Written in a prophetic and cryptic style, 'The Book of the Law' challenges readers to question societal norms and embrace personal freedom and self-realization. The text's themes of rebellion against tradition and the pursuit of individual spiritual growth are as relevant today as they were over a century ago. Crowley's work remains controversial and influential, attracting both devoted followers and vehement critics. Drawing on various esoteric traditions, Crowley brings a unique perspective to the study of mysticism and human spirituality. 'The Book of the Law' is a must-read for those interested in occultism, alternative spiritual practices, and the intersection of philosophy and religion.
