Your Opinion on Crowley ?
wandking said:I'll close with another poignant quote by Crowley but don't let these two quotes mislead you. His writings rage from a level of lucidity bordering on brilliance to what appears to be drug-induced ravings.
[ From Wandking's Crowley quotes]
He then goes on to state: “Truth is Truth; and the Truth of yesterday is the Truth of to-day, and the Truth of to-day is the Truth of tomorrow. Our quest, then, is to find Truth, and to cut the kernel from the husk, the text from the comment.... We have nothing to say against the men of science. We have nothing to say against the great Mystics. All hail to both! But followers who accept doctrines of either as dogma we pronounce to be a bane, a curse and a pestilence to mankind.”
Yes, Crowley was an intense, multi-dimensional individual, with vehement sympathies and antipathies. And, like Blavatsky and Levi and Nietzsche and Steiner, as your excellent quote proclaims, he sought to reconcile and synthesize "science" with the "great mystics." All hail to him for that. Less dogma, more truth.
