Great read. As a Thelemite, I was originally drawn to the Book of the Law (Liber AL) because it deeply resonated with me. This book is no different, save that in some texts there are only the verses quoted that are commented upon. I think it is important for a Thelemite to get their own insight before reading Crowley's commentaries, or to compare both. But one could continue to get insight over time. Crowley's commentaries are based on not only his insight as a Thelemite but in relation to his previous experience as a Buddhist and yogi. The introductions are fitting and effectively quashes any notions of a secret society (i.e. The Illuminati). I also enjoyed the copies of the original artwork included. ( )
