The Key of Magic
Hark ye, O man, to the wisdom of magic.
Hark the knowledge
of powers forgotten.
Long, ago in the days of the first man,
warfare began between darkness and light.
Man, then
as now,
were filled with both darkness and light;
and while in some darkness hell sway,
in other light filled the
soul.
Aye, age old in this warfare,
the eternal struggle between darkness and light.
Fiercely is it fought all
through the ages,
using strange powers hidden to man.
Adepts has there been filled with the blackness,
struggling
always against the light;
but others there are who, filled with brightness,
have ever conquered the darkness of night.
Where
e'er ye may be in all ages and plane,
surely, ye shall know of the battle with night.
Long ages ago,
The SUNS of
the Morning
descending, found the world filled with night,
there in that past, begun the struggle,
the age old Battle
Darkness & Light.
Many in the time were so filled with darkness
that only feebly flamed the light from the night.
Some
they were, masters of darkness, who sought
to fill all with their darkness:
Sought to draw others into their night.
Fiercely
withstood they, the masters of brightness:
fiercely fought they from the darkness of night
Sought ever to tighten the
fetters,
the chains that bind men to the darkness of night.
Used they always the dark magic,
brought into men by
the power of darkness.
magic that enshrouded man's soul with darkness.
Banded together as in order,
BROTHERS
OF DARKNESS,
they through the ages,
antagonist they to the children of men.
Walked they always secret and hidden,
found,
yet not found by the children of man.
Forever, they walked and worked in darkness,
hiding from the light in the
darkness of night.
Silently, secretly use they their power,
enslaving and binding the soul of men.
Unseen they
come, and unseen they go.
Man, in his ignorance calls THEM from below.
Dark is the way of the DARK BROTHERS travel,
dark
of the darkness not of the night,
traveling o'er Earth
they walk through man's dreams.
Power they have gained
from
the darkness around them
to call other dwellers from out of their plane,
in ways that are dark and unseen by man.
Into
man's mind-space reach the DARK BROTHERS.
Around it, they close the veil of their night.
There through it's lifetime
that
soul dwells in bondage,
bound by the fetters of the VEIL of the night.
Mighty are they in the forbidden knowledge
forbidden
because it is one with the night.
Hark ye O old man and list to my warning:
be ye free from the bondage of night.
Surrender
not your soul to the BROTHERS OF DARKNESS.
Keep thy face ever turned towards the Light.
Know ye not, O man, that your
sorrow,
only has come through the Veil of the night.
Aye man, heed ye my warning:
strive ever upward,
turn your
soul toward the LIGHT.
The BROTHERS OF DARKNESS seek for their brothers
those who traveled the pathway of LIGHT.
For
well know they that those who have traveled
far towards the Sun in their pathway of LIGHT
have great and yet greater
power
to bind with darkness the children of LIGHT.
List ye, O man, to he who comes to you.
But weigh in the balance
if his words be of LIGHT.
For many there are who walk in DARK BRIGHTNESS
and yet are not the children of LIGHT.
Easy
it is to follow their pathway,
easy to follow the path that they lead.
But yet O man, heed ye my warning:
Light comes
only to him who strives.
Hard is the pathway that leads to the WISDOM,
hard is the pathway that leads to the LIGHT.
Many
shall ye find, the stones in your pathway:
many the mountains to climb toward the LIGHT.
Yet know ye, O man, to
him that o'ercometh,
free will he be of the pathway of Light.
For ye know, O man,
in the END light must conquer
and
darkness and night be banished from Light.
Listen, O man, and heed ye this wisdom;
even as darkness, so is the LIGHT.
When
darkness is banished and all Veils are rended,
out there shall flash from the darkness, the LIGHT.
Even as exist
among men the DARK BROTHERS,
so there exists the BROTHERS OF LIGHT.
Antagonists they of the BROTHERS OF DARKNESS,
seeking
to free men from the night.
Powers have they, mighty and potent.
Knowing the LAW, the planets obey.
Work they ever
in harmony and order,
freeing the man-soul from its bondage of night.
Secret and hidden, walk they also.
Known not
are they to the children of men.
Ever have THEY fought the DARK BROTHERS,
conquered and conquering time without end.
Yet
always LIGHT shall in the end be master,
driving away the darkness of night.
Aye, man, know ye this knowing:
always
beside thee walk the Children of Light.
Masters they of the SUN power,
ever unseen yet the guardians of men.
Open
to all is their pathway,
open to he who will walk in the LIGHT.
Free are THEY of DARK AMENTI,
free of the HALLS,
where LIFE reigns supreme.
SUNS are they and LORDS of the morning,
Children of Light to shine among men.
Like man
are they and yet are unlike,
Never divided were they in the past.
ONE have they been in ONENESS eternal,
throughout
all space since the beginning of time.
Up did they come in Oneness with the ALL ONE,
up from the first-space,
formed and unformed.
Given to man have they secrets
that shall guard and protect him from all harm.
He who would
travel the path of the master,
free must he be from the bondage of night.
Conquer must he the formless and shapeless,
conquer
must he the phantom of fear.
Knowing, must he gain of all of the secrets,
travel the pathway that leads through the
darkness,
yet ever before him keep the light of his goal.
Obstacles great shall he meet in the pathway,
yet press
on to the LIGHT of the SUN.
Hear ye, O Man, the SUN is the symbol
of the LIGHT that shines at the end of thy road.
Now
to thee give I the secrets:
now to meet the dark power,
meet and conquer the fear from the night.
Only by knowing
can ye conquer,
Only be knowing can ye have LIGHT.
Now I give unto thee the knowledge,
known to the MASTERS,
the
knowing that conquers all the dark fears.
Use this, the wisdom I give thee.
MASTER thou shalt be of THE BROTHERS OF
NIGHT.
When unto thee comes a feeling,
drawing thee nearer to the darker gate,
examine
thine heart and find if the feeling
thou hast has come from within.
If thou shalt find the darkness thine own thoughts,
banish
them forth from the place in thy mind.
Send through thy body a wave of vibration,
irregular first and regular second,
repeating
time after time until free.
Start the WAVE FORCE in thy BRAIN CENTER.
Direct it in waves from thine head to thy foot.
But
if thou findest thine heart is not darkened,
be sure that a force is directed to thee.
Only by knowing can thou overcome
it.
Only be wisdom can thou hope to be free.
Knowledge brings wisdom and wisdom is power.
Attain and ye shall have
power o'er all.
Seek ye first a place bound by darkness.
Place ye a circle around
about thee.
Stand erect in the midst of the circle.
Use thou this formula, and you shalt be free.
Raise thou thine
hands to the dark space above thee.
Close thou thine eyes and draw in the LIGHT.
Call to the SPIRIT OF LIGHT through
the Space-Time,
using these words and thou shalt be free:
"Fill thou my body, O SPIRIT OF LIfe,
fill thou my body
with SPIRIT OF LIGHT.
Come from the FLOWER
that shines through the darkness.
Come from the HALLS where the Seven
Lords rule.
Name them by name, I, the Seven:
THREE, FOUR, FIVE,
and SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT--Nine.
By their names I
call them to aid me,
free me and save me from the darkness of night:
UNTANAS, QUERTAS, CHIETAL,
and GOYANA, HUERTAL,
SEMVETA--ARDAL.
By their names I implore thee,
free me from darkness
and fill me with LIGHT
Know ye, O
man, that when ye have done this,
ye shall be free from the fetters that bind ye,
cast off the bondage of the brothers
of night.
See ye not that the names have the power
to free by vibration the fetters that bind?
Use them at need to
free thou thine brother
so that he, too, may come forth from the night.
Thou, O man, art thy brother's helper.
Let
him not lie in the bondage of night.
Now unto thee, give I my magic.
Take it and dwell on the pathway of LIGHT.
LIGHT
unto thee, LIFE unto thee,
