THIRD DEGREE32
The Word of the Third Degree is one of the most closely guarded secrets of the O.T.O. I have had what is
alleged to be this Word communicated to me, but as I am uncertain of the purity of the source from
which I received it I have not reproduced it.
Readers of this book who are students of qabalistic numerology will be able to reconstruct this word,
however, for it has four letters and its numeration is 93, the same as that of the key Thelemite words of
Thelema and Agape.
Third Degree
