The Magick of Aleister Crowley dispatches some of the myths that have surrounded Crowley’s life and legend. In plain English, this book explores the rituals and teachings of Aleister Crowley, and provides insights into their significance. With a new intro and updates, this classic guide to Thelema, Aleister Crowley’s spiritual system of ritual magick, is the perfect introductory text for readers who wonder what the work-rather than the myth-of Aleister Crowley are all about. This event will be perfect for both new and long-time explorers of Crowley’s work.
Lon Milo DuQuette is a bestselling author and lecturer whose books on Magick, Tarot, and the Western Mystery Traditions have been translated into ten languages. He is currently the US Deputy Grand Master of Ordo Templi Orientis and is on the faculty of the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York, and the Maybe Logic Academy. Among his many books are My Life with the Spirits, Understanding Aleister Crowley’s Thoth Tarot, and Tarot of Ceremonial Magick. He lives in Sacramento, California, with his wife Constance.

You got to love Lon MIlo Duquette!
His humor and the way he "speaks" in his books translates wonderfully in person.
A long while ago, I was invited to a private discussion with Lon DuQuette discussing his books and Aleister Crowley..
I was left with a memorable impression of Mr.Duquette and grateful to have had that opportunity to meet him.
Glad I stumbled across this video discussion. 🌹🤍🕯✨

Love this. It is rare to find such intelligent discussion of Crowley.
The Chicken Qabalah is a core tome in any mystically orientated bookshelf. I couldn't believe what a work of genius that book is. I'm not inspired by Crowley, but I love Lon Milo so much. In time, his works will rank with the works of AC, no doubt about it.
Agreed! It’s a classic!
Yeah imo Crowley was not magical at all. He definitely was evil. Not in a good way. In a self centered, non magick way.
@@lennonhendrixamaru5800How so
Thank you for broadcasting tonight's Banyon Books live video event, with Archbishop Lon Milo Duquette.
Much, much appreciated. Blessed be.
Lon is always a pleasure to listen to!
Are his theories 1% correct?
@@daa5249yes they are.. Even more ..
But it always depends which level you stand to understand this...
Wow! Thank you for this interview! I learned so much about both Lon Milo DuQuette and Crowley I have never heard.
That was about time. You have a lifetime of stuff to go through, he produced so much great spiritual writings and work, it will take you years to dig in deep. 👌👌👌
Nice to see more videos about Crowley that aren't about gossip and complete falsities. So very relieving, actually.
When you help people to understand. This is nourishment for the soul.
53:52 Lon's explanation of the Aeons is brilliant: Aeon of Isis, Aeon of Osiris, and then Aeon of Horus.. Also, the symbol of Spirit at the top of the pentagram to symbolize the Aeon of Horus is great as well.
I couldn't agree more. He covers this very well in his book regarding the Thoth Tarot. I remember reading that for the first time eons ago now, and being just absolutely blown away by his ability to express those concepts in such a visceral and relatable way. He truly a master and I am always thrilled to find something new from him, book, interview or video work. I would love to meet him.
I miss living close to Banyan Books. This shop was a home to me for many years. 💜
Mr. Milo like you I found this stuff as a kid. I was 11.
Dang, you’ve been doing your homework!
I was personally 15 when I found it but I have been deeply involved ever since. It is quite an amazing perspective to be aware of at such an early age. How lucky we are to have had so long with such deeply complex material. Still, I know I've just barely scratched the surface.
Banyen Books, thank you.
Thanks for having a conversation with my spiritual grand uncle Lon AND putting it out here on YT for everyone to see and hear. I really enjoyed your talk. Love and Light from Norway 🌞
Love Lon. Learned a lot from his books and was fortunate to attend some of his classes in Costa Mesa. His sense of humor made such a difference in taking in the information.
Legend.
I could hardly wait for the comments section to be activated. The end of Mr Lon's talk is especially captivating, as it perfectly illustrates my relationship with a man whose silence is of an ineffable quality, so sacred and profound, to me, that over two decades of seldom though fierce arrow-throwing I could not disturb or weaken it to a point of joining me in the dark fray. Needless to say I am, or was, an 'Other Brother' though a woman, the wild and active one. Sometimes his passivity drove me to wildness...until I learned to understand it, treasure it, be it more myself.
Thank you so much (from a fellow Canadian in California) for helping me and us mythologize rather than pathologize. I will order your classic. My aappreciation also to the host (I don't see his name) for quiet, pertinent inquiry. It was appropriate that Lon Milo do the talking.
And here is something especially for him, with a wink. czcams.com/video/w1AvK0DiASY/video.html
I assume the active lodge in Canada was the work of frater Achad. I know he moved up there and spread the illuminated message to Canadians.
What a wonderful exposition of the ideas of an author who I have been told is important spirtual writer, but whose work has always been utterly impenetrabile to me! I look forward to reading the book!
Pure gold. LMD is a treasure, and this particular interview is so good. Thank you for producing and sharing this!
MOST LOVED TEACHER TOO 💞 HE WAS GREATCX. MUCH MORE ❤
You the Man!
I loved Every word❤ Thank you🥰
Nice expo on the tiferet Lon ❤
I love Banyen and I love Mr. Duquette and I love the crossover and I am Love and- ...huh, shit
Klaus Kinski is to Paganini what Ozzy Osbourne is to Aleister Crowley with Jack Parsons and L Ron Hubbard and so on and so forth! ; )
Crowley died a mere 7 months before Lon was born.
Reading this comment for the first time 7 months after you posted it. 😉
Ok now I’m calling Crowley Alice from here on out. Yas queen
Some magicians fall prey to the ego and become corrupted by it.
Pity the fallen asleep as Alistair Crowley would say.
There is no concept of violence in the divine? Those who practise violence has not been reading Alistair Crowley's works correctly?
Their's is now an arduous journey!
In which Lon comments on his Magickal Initiation, Aleister Crowley, Sex Magick, and gender fluidity in the Aeon of Horus.
thanks for the interesting talk!
I like the music at the end ( 1:10:00 ) - can you tell me what track that is?
The song is called "Discovering the Lost City" by Max H. with some original flourishes added to it.
The seven fold tree of life and the principles that are an innate part of its structure, is what forms the divine construct from which the physical realm and all other realms of denser energies emerge.
We have emerged from the seven fold tree of life in physical form and are at the same time, emerged in it.
If I drew an outline of the human form on a blackboard. It is easy to see the blackboard on the outside of the outline and the blackboard on the inside.
This is symbolic of the unity between the macro and the micro of which we are God in the micro. This is using the symbolism to suppose the blackboard to be the representation of the all seeing eye which is boundless knowledge.
All divine writings are written for those who know.
How does one get initiated into the OTO?

You have to know someone and get recommended, usually by going to your closest lodge and meeting members. I was actually going to go to mine in the next month or so! Get the journey started.

Everybody is on a spiritual journey to expand their conscious awareness in order to become one with God.
We are not all on the same page as yet and won't be when it comes to decoding the totality of knowledge that God holds in the boundless state.
We, individually, who have attained to such truths as to have led us here to this page are more familiar with the book.
Not everyone is ready for the higher understanding of the greater picture as yet but that is the cosmic journey.
Awareness helps you understand who you are in relation to what you know.
What you know is the divine aspect of who you are.
There are many who think that they know and who are in receipt of information that can aid in their becoming but again that is the cosmic journey of lives lived, knowledge gained, wisdom divine.
Currently you are lives being lived. Ultimately divine unity with Knowledge.
The egoic experience and the cosmic journey of lifetime's is about the attainment of knowledge.
The greater the knowledge the greater the God.

It is like people who claim that Machiavelli is evil?
These people have not read the book correctly. Had they done so they would have recognised that Machiavelli was really advising the Prince not do any of those things. " Dear Prince, this is who you really do not want to follow!"
Same as when Alistair Crowley writes..
" Do what thy will shall be the whole of the law!" The gold diggers see this as written only for their pleasure.
In other words they have no knowledge of the universal principles. Egotistical not divine. Long way to go yet for these people.
Hi, I'm Giulia Eone, I wrote a book called "The Return of Aleister Crowley". I wrote the book out of a duty to testify about Reincarnation where I declare that in my previous life I was the British occult magician Aleister Crowley. I was interviewed by Desvelado Team on CZcams. I'm not asking anyone to believe me, but if I've come this far it's because I have objective proof of what I declare!
how i become rich
Objective proof??? I would like to see that...
@@AdamMcGrath read about new avatar power i think it's great to start with
@@speeedd7790 I don't know what avatar power is!
@@AdamMcGrath you believe in occult stuff ? or you're just spying
i dont want to like and change the 666 like count
If we compare Crowley to pop culture, he is like Madonna and Lady Gaga whom people viewed as weird and would go as far as labelling them as Satanic. As a kid, I was sent to a Catholic school, and I remember one time when one of my teachers told us that Madonna is the "whore of Babylon" and the "new Jezebel". Looking back, I find these labels as hilarious and stupid. Lady Gaga came to the scene when people in my town were crazy about the end of the world thing. Basically, these folks just used weirdness and shock factor to have their material known to the public and some people went too far in judging them.
