To: alt.magick From: alamut@netcom.com (Maxwells Delysid Machine)] Subject: Re: TOPY |=P=| A Statement of Direction |2| Temple ov Psychick Youth North America |=3=| Coyote 129, Station Staff 10.01.1994 ------------------------------------------- We have recently been informed that Genesis P'Orridge has stated the following: "Thee main point ov this transmission is to reiterate that TOPY ended in 1991. Anyone who tells you otherwise is addicted to thee past, did not read thee Gray Book clearly and carefully, does not understand thee meaning of thee word CHANGE, puts their ego and their dogma before individual magick, and is generally suspect and is, at best, an emotional cripple. It is wrong to let thee dead not lie." We can only assume that Genesis P'Orridge believes that he owns and CONTROLS the spiritual growth and well being of all sigilizers everywhere. Only a person operating with that belief would presume that they could render any spiritual value an Individual found within the TOPY framework null and void after Sept 1991. We do not share this belief. We respect the rights of the Individual to determine their own path of magickal self expression. TOPY is a viable magickal organization as long as a single Individual attempts to look within themselves and engender a deeper understanding of themselves. Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth is an active and growing organization, with dozens of operating bodies on four continents. Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth North America is an incorporated religious organization, with members across the USA and Canada. Genesis P'Orridge is not a member of TOPYNA, nor has he ever been. We do wish to recognize the work that Gen did with TOPYUK (Station 23) and give him all due credit for his insight. Much of what we call TOPY today was built upon the foundation he helped create. However, a foundation is not all a building is made of. The remainder of TOPY was built with the dedication and vision of hundreds of others, each contribution as important as Gens'. One of the documents to be found at the FTP site mentioned in the message from Gen is a file called "The_Process_Is". This was a document created jointly by TOPYUK and TOPYNA and was a collection of active Sigilizers describing the role that TOPY plays in their magickal work, and in their lives. It became a process document by simply replacing all references to "TOPY" with "The Process". We welcome being called "emotional cripples" by Individuals who demonstrate such respect for other Individuals magickal work. (BTW: the original version was reprinted in Broadcast 4/5, available from the Station) As for the GreyBook, we have never considered the GreyBook to be a static document. To do so would place the writings of one time of higher import than the reality of the timeframe. To refer to the GreyBook as gospel is a laughable tactic! (also, i guess i didn't read it "clearly and carefully" for i cannot find any timeframe for TOPY to exist at all! it is available at our FTP site, alamut.topy.org, please look for yourself.) We wish to emphasise the fact that TOPY will not cease operation, merely because someone says so. We wish Genesis P'Orridge and his allies the best of luck in their future magickal and professional endeavors. We hope they fare better than their namesakes.... ------------------------------------------- Contact Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth North America at the following points: (include SASE for swiftest reply) Station TOPYNA (formerly TOPYSOL): P.O.
