priestly robes nor magic sword�察�not the incantations�察�WRITTEN WORD�察�

nor mystic circle�察�can produce Nature's response to Occult rite�察�but the fire 

of the inward spirit�察�the mental realization of each word and mystic sign�察�

combined with the conscious knowledge of your own Deific powersthis�察�

and this only�察�creates Nature's true magician。 

     Who   and   where   can   such   be   found�拭�Are   they   so   few   that   the   echo 

answers back ;Where and who�拭─�Yet�察�there are many such upon the Earth 

at the present time�察�but the present mental conditions forbid them making 

their identity known。 They would not be recognized and accepted as the 

TRUE   teachers�察  �but   reviled   and   persecuted   and   dubbed   as   insane。   But 

silently�察�they are sowing the seed of truth that will spring up and bear fruit�察�

where and when least expected。 

     Because evil is so active�察�truth is not lying dormant。 The spirit of God�察�

that Divine spark of Deity within every human soul�察�never sleeps�察�never 

rests。 ;On and upward; is its cry。 ;Omnia vincit veritas。; 

     The   grand   sublimity   of   man's   conception   of   at´one   with   the   Infinite 

Father�察   �at´one    with   the   limitless   universe     of  being�察   �at´one   with�察  �and 

inheriting�察    �all  the   sacred    rights    and   inalienable     prerogatives     of   the 

ineffable     Adonai      of   the   deathless    soul�察  �is   the   only   test   of   man's 

qualification for the holy office�察�for�察�as Bulwer Lytton has truthfully said�察�

;the loving throb of one great HUMAN HEART will baffle more fiends 

than   all   the   magicians'   lore。;   So   it   is   with   the   sacred   ritual。   One   single 

aspirational thought�察 �clearly defined�察 �outweighs all the priestly  trappings 

that the world has ever seen。 

     The success of all incarnations depends upon the complete unison of 

VOICE       and    MIND�察     �the   interblend    of   which�察   �produces     the   dynamic 

intonation�察  �that   chords   with   the   inward   rhythmic   vibrations   of   the   soul。

Once     this  magical�察   �dynamic�察    �vibration    is  produced�察   �there   immediately 

springs     into  being    the   whole    elemental     world    belonging     thereto�察  �by 

correspondence。 Vocalists who hold their  audiences spellbound do so by 

virtue of the magical vibrations they produce�察�and are in reality practical�察�

even though unconscious�察�magicians。 The same power�察�to a degree�察�lies in 

the    voice   when    speaking�察    �the  graceful    movement       of  the  hand    when 

obeying   the   will�察  �and   the   eye   rays   forth   the   same   dynamic   power   and 

becomes magical in its effects。 

     These   powers   are   exercised   more   upon   the   physical   plane�察  �and   no 

better illustration can be given�察�than�察�the power man is able to exert over 

the animal when gazing into its eyes。 

     Here�察�as well as in incantations and invocations�察�within the power of 

the will�察�lies the success or failure。 

     At this point it may be asked�察�what�察�then�察�is the use of magical rites�察�of 

symbols   and   priestly   robes�拭  �We   answer�察  �in   themselves   alone�察  �nothing�察�

absolutely   nothing�察  �except   the   facility   and   convenience   we   derive   from 

system�察�order and a code of procedure。 To this may be added the mental 

force and enthusiasm of soul which such things inspire�察�just as men and 

women   may   feel   more   dignified�察  �artistic�察  �and   refined�察  �when   dressed   in 

accordance with their ideas。 So may the average priest feel more priestly�察�

holy�察  �and   consequently�察  �more   powerful   mentally�察  �when   arrayed   in   the 

robes of his office and surrounded by the outward symbols of his power 

and functions。 But�察�in themselves alone�察�there is not�察�nor can there be�察�any 

real virtue。 The same may be said of the incantations。 The words used in 

their composition   are   the   hieroglyphics of   mystical ideas。 Therefore�察�the 

correct   pronunciation   of   the   words   or   the  grammatical   construction   of   a 

sentence is nothing�察 �if   the underlying idea  is  conceived in   the  mind   and 

responded to by the soul。 Will and motive form the basis of true magic。 

     One   word   more   and   we   have   completed   our   subject。   Magic   swords�察�

rings�察�pentacles�察�and wands�察�may�察�and often are powerful magical agents in 

the   hands    of  the  magician�察    �by   virtue  of  the   power�察   �or  charm�察   �that  is 

invested     within    them    when     properly    prepared�察   �but   apart   from    such 

preparation�察  �by   those   who   know�察  �they   are   as   powerless   as   unintelligible 

incantations。

     All   the   foregoing   are   aids�察  �but   if   physical   manifestations   of   magical 

forces     be  required�察    �there   must    always     be  present    the   necessary     vital�察�

magnetic       pabulum�察    �by   means     of  which     such   phenomena        are   made    to 

transpire�察  �and   in   every   case�察  �to   be   successful�察  �the   assistance   of   a   good 

natural magician�察�or seer�察�is necessary�察�for without this essential element 

the whole art�察�in its higher aspects�察�becomes abortive。

                              CHAPTER XI。 



                                  THE MAGIC WAND 



     This    is  the  last  lesson  of  our   present   course    that  requires   a  clear 

definition of the terms employed in the title thereof�察�for the twelfth�察�and 

final study is�察�perhaps�察�fortunate in having for its title a word that has not�察�

so far�察�been misused and distorted from its original sense。 

     The Magic Wand。 The words savor of everything that the young tyro 

in   Occult   art   can   picture   to   his   mind�察  �of   the   midnight   magician   and   his 

mysterious�察�if not diabolical�察�arts�察�muttering his incantations�察�working his 

gruesome      spells�察  �and   raising   the  restless  ghosts    of  the  dead。   Strange 

fancies�察    �these�察  �and   yet�察  �so  corrupt    and    ignorant    have    become     the 

conceptions of the popular mind regarding the once sacred Science of the 

Temple      and   the  psychological      powers    of  Nature�察   �that  we   very   much 

question�察�if the ideas above stated were not very similar to the originals of 

each   modern   student�察  �before   he   had   become   acquainted   with   the   deeper 

truthsthe realities of Occult philosophy。 

     We will commence our study by a careful investigation of the original 

meaning of the words Magic Wand�察�since those who were the masters and 

originators thereof�察�are far more likely to know more about them than their 

degenerate offspring of a later age。 Few�察�comparatively�察�would believe that 

the    words    MAGIC�察      �MASON�察      �and    IMAGINATION�察          �are  the   present 

unrelated descendants of the same original conceptionTHE ROOT IDEA�察�

but such is the case。 First�察�then�察�we will examine their modern meanings。 

Magic is the unholy art of working secret spells�察�of using invisible powers�察�

and holding intercourse with the unseen world of ghosts and demons�察�by 

means of enchantments。 It also means the expert deception of the senses 

by   the   tricks   of   a   conjurer�察  �SO´CALLED   hocus´pocus   and   fraud�察  �and   a 

magician   is   either   an   evil´minded�察  �superstitious   mortal�察  �fool   enough   to 

believe in charms�察�or an expert pretender and imposter of the first water�察�

who cheats and deceives the people。 A mason is the honorable designation 

of   a   builder�察  �who   works   in   stone�察  �metaphys
