To: alt.magick.tyagi,alt.magick,talk.religion.misc From: tyagi@houseofkaos.abyss.com (nigris (333)) Subject: CLove: Non-Crowleyan Thelema? Date: 11 Apr 1997 00:40:31 -0700 [from thelema93-l@hollyfeld.org: maat@io.com (Content Love)] Yo Tyagi, 93, >I say, besides the quasi-philosophy of Rabelais or the remnants Crowley >used to fabricate his Thelema (such as Nietzsche, Augustine or whoever), >and besides the offshoots which Crowley inspired, like Achad and Grant, >are you aware of *any* writer who utilized the term 'Thelema' in their >vocabulary in a religious or philosophic context, especially prior to >Crowley's lifetime? The Monks of Thelema, by Walter Besant and James Rice first published in London by Chatto & Windus, 1878 Chapter One is interesting. It's downhill from there. None the less, it meets your criteria (as stated above). Have a nice day. 93 93/93 clk *!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!&!* "No! No!
