VOLUME SIX
O - Hold Telemata in left hand, Lotus Wand in right, assume Hierophant’s form. Partly
unveil Talisman, smite with flat of sword, and say, “Thou canst not pass from concealment unto
manifestation save by virtue of the name YHVH. After the formless and the Void and the
Darkness, then cometh the knowledge of the Light. I am that Light which riseth in darkness. I am
the Exorcist in the midst of the Exorcism. Take on therefore manifestation before me, for I am
the wielder of the forces of the Balance. Thou hast known me now so pass thou on unto the
Cubical Altar of the Universe.”
P - He then recovers Talisman or Material Basis, passes on to the Altar, laying it thereon
as before shewn. He then passes to East of Altar, hold left hand over Talisman, and sword over it
erect. Then doth he rehearse a most potent conjuration and invocation of that Spirit to render
irresistable this Telesmata or Material Basis, or to render manifest this natural phenomenon of. . .
using and reiterating all the Divine, Angelic, and Magical Names appropriate to this end, neither
omitting the signs, seals, sigils, lineal figures, signatures, and the like from that conjuration.
Q - The Magician now elevates the covered Telesma or Material Basis towards Heaven,
then removes the Veil entirely, yet leaving it corded, crying with a loud voice. “Creature of
Talismans, (or Material Basis), long hast thou dwelt in darkness. Quit the Night and seek the
Day.” He then replaces it on the Altar, holds the Magical Sword erect above it, the Pommel
immediately above the centre thereof, and says, “By all the Names, Powers, and rites already
rehearsed, I conjure upon thee power and might irresistible.” Then say the Mystic Words.
R - Saith the Magician, “As the Light hidden in darkness can manifest therefrom, so shalt
thou become irresistible.” He then takes up the Telesmata, or the Material Basis, stands to East
of the Altar, and faces West. Then shall he rehearse a long conjuration to the Powers and Spirits
immediately superior unto that one which he seeks to invoke, to make the Telesmata powerful.
Then he places the Talisman or Material Basis between the Pillars, himself at the East, facing
West, then in the sign of the Enterer, doth he project the whole current of his Will upon the
Talisman. Thus he continueth until such time as he shall perceive his will power weakening,
when he protects himself by the Sign of Silence, and then drops his hands. He now looks toward
the Talisman, and a flashing Light or Glory should be seen playing and flickering on the
Talisman or Material Basis, and in the Natural Phenomena a slight commencement of the
Phenomena should be waited for. If this does not occur, let the Magician repeat the Conjuration
of the Superiors from the place of the Throne of the East. And this conjuration may be repeated
thrice, each time ending with a new projection of Will in the Sign of the Enterer, etc. But if at the
third time of repetition the Talisman or Material Basis does not flash, then be it known that there
is an error in the working. So let the Master of Evocations replace the Talisman or Material
Basis, upon the Altar holding the Sword as usual, and thus doing, let him address an humble
prayer unto the Great Gods of Heaven to grant unto him the force necessary to correctly
complete the work. He is then to take back the Talisman, to between the Pillars, and repeat the
former
