Synopsis
"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law." This oft-misunderstood phrase, which forms the basis for Crowley's practice of Magick, is found in The Book of the Law. Dictated to Crowley in Cairo between noon and 1 pm on three success days in April 1904, the Book of the Law is the source book and key for Crowley students and for the occult in general. For the first time the Book of the Law is offered in a deluxe, hardcover edition fittingly issued in celebration of the 100th anniversary of Liber AL vel Legis's transmission to Crowley.
Annotation
Contains the corrected text of the 1938 edition as well as a facsimile of the handwritten manuscript.

November 27, 2003: Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law. In this short and powerful book you will find infinite depth and wisdom. Nothing more true has ever been written. The pattern of the universe is laid forth in 65 pages. If you are to only read one book your whole life, this is most definately it. I have read it over a dozen times and follow the Law laid therein for the balance of the universe is at stake. My life is dedicated to Thelema and I cannot imagine myself without it. Love is the law, love under will.
