And Now It Stands Proven That Satan,

The Exercise Of Magical Power Is The Exercise Of Natural Powers, But Superior To The Ordinary Functions Of Nature. A Miracle Is Not A Violation Of The Laws Of Nature, Except For Ignorant People. Magic Is But A Science, A Profound Knowledge Of The Occult Forces In Nature, And Of The Laws Governing The Visible Or The Invisible World. Spiritualism In The Hands Of An Adept Becomes Magic, For He Is Learned In The Art Of Blending Together The Laws Of The Universe, Without Breaking Any Of Them And Thereby Violating Nature.

Hast Thou Attuned Thyself To The Suffering Of Humanity, O Candidate For Light?

The More Thou Dost Advance, The More Thy Feet Pitfalls Will Meet. The Path That Leadeth On Is Lighted By One Fire - The Light Of Daring Burning In The Heart. The More One Dares, The More He Shall Obtain. The More He Fears, The More That Light Shall Pale.

Who Is The Great Man? He Who Is Strongest In Patience. He Who Patiently Endures Injury, And Maintains A Blameless Life--he Is A Man Indeed!

A Solitary Ascetic Is A Symbol Of The Most Cowardly Egotism; A Hermit Who Flees From His Brothers Instead Of Helping Them To Carry The Burden Of Life, To Work For Others, And To Put Their Shoulders To The Wheel Of Social Life, Is A Coward Who Hides Himself When The Battle Is On, And Goes To Sleep Drunk On An Opiate.
