It is in an ennobled soul only that the universal powers can do their work, especially if body, mind and soul have been equally trained and developed.

According to the universal laws, the magician will form his own point of view about the universe which henceforth will be his true religion.

We must always be aware of the fact that the body, soul and mind are to be trained simultaneously, for otherwise it would be impossible to gain and maintain the magic equipoise.

Knowledge and wisdom must go hand in hand. The adept will therefore endeavour to get on in knowledge as well as in wisdom, for neither of the two must lag behind in development.

... All these preparations clearly show that a human being must perfect himself in the physical world through his magical development in order to be prepared for the higher astral world after death.

My views on everything from welfare to a balanced budget to affirmative action can be traced to what Buddy and Helen Watts taught me as a young boy growing up poor but proud in Eufaula.

The last words of Jesus to the church (in Revelation) were ‘Repent!’

I lived in several hotels, yeah. You have to try to make it home.
