A great documentary depicting the acts and deeds done by Alesteir Crowley

I've read his book 'Book of Thoth'. I don't like this very much, but I like of reading this, because it's instructive and informative or ancient cults. His Thelema is cool, but really weird. Crowley is with no doubts an interesting person.

I am searching about Thelema. Still doing my research on it. I beg your pardon, but have you read A. Schopenhauer? He was pretty much about Veda, and Buddhisms teaching of Emptiness, Maya, etc. I don't know his philosophy as well, but I know that his researches on it is the most of the great researches of European philosophers about the East. Also, they say Heidegger is to it, but I know how close. Heidegger was talking about non-Being or something like that to his own philosophy. I understand Thelema as 'the will with the face'. What do I mean? The will is the core of ourselves, and the will serves to us, and we serve to it by living our lives. We can't avoid the will, but controlling of it seems to me not easy. This is happening because of our drama, classification, breaking our lives into many parts, but the life is unique and whole. At the same time, without breaking parts of our lives, our will will be decreased and low. What should we do? To art it by our abilities of composition. And composition is the good word, but according to Thelema, composition is just a part of our wishes. So, it needs to be rightly controlled. The whole process is in ability of governing composition according to my will. This art is composed my me, ant the art represents myself as my face. So, this process shows itself of my, and it represents me. I don't know how clearly I have written it, but I hope it can be understand. Thank you!

He wanted to stop Christianity? He can't. I'm glad he was stopped already by leaving this world. Such a vile person. Sad

He had issues with his mother, and his father died when he was young. My guess is that he holds her mother responsible for his bereavement, i.e. loss of his father.

His teachings inspired the satanist LaVey and the founder of Scientology, Ron Hubbard!

I don't even know how females liked him. I just get disgusted just looking at him. He's a horrible man. media.giphy.com/media/l0ErC3TYZwv1DoHx6/giphy.gif

I don't know, I'm not God to judge people. Actually, I loved people when I was yonger, but watching how many human beings hated each other, accused each other, I stopped to do it. If people are so angry on each other it's easy to make a war and blow their hatred on each other. Someday people kill each other and this will be the fair end of their hatred.

This is a bit different than judging. It's like a parent who tells their child that hitting a sibling is wrong. You are judging a wrong action on a person and hoping the person changes. Judging a person for being a person is different. Like eye color or skin color is ridiculous to judge and is wrong.

He was respected for being a person, whereas his behavior was accused by some. He was eccentric.
