CP> that book CP> is, as GH Bro. Az0th once told me, worth it's weight in gold. Sure is. I like his attitude very much. CP> Well, yeah, but that's not exactly what I meant... I mean that CP> there's CP> a danger in thinking that one's experiences should mimic those CP> of CP> another or else be considered "misses." Or that, eg, Crowley's CP> visions CP> as expressed in V&V are bull because they don't resemble Dee & CP> Kelley's, etc. In fact, one of the clues that Scheuler hasn't CP> done his CP> own work (one of many) is that his descriptions are CP> essentially taken CP> _directly_ from V&V. Good points, all, very much worth the reminder. CP> Another of my loves, and one that has given me some pretty CP> incredible CP> insights and experiences. It's a bit pricy in hardback (there CP> is a CP> paperback edition in two volumes, but I don't know if it's CP> still in CP> print), but I _highly_ recommend _The Blue Cliff Records_ if CP> you're CP> interested in Ch'an. Another fave is called _The Sayings of CP> Layman CP> P'ang_. I'll look out for it! The zen text I like is called 'The Gateless Barrier', a collection of traditional koans and accompanying text. The accounts of meetings 9almost fencing matches) between various sages makes me think very much of comments regarding those of high grade, as AC describes, and others... something about a sense of 'recognition' between two people, and a sense of the relationship between them, in a spiritual sense. Oh never mind, I can't convey it just now. CP> Well, as you can see from my list of experiments, it hasn't CP> actually CP> come up yet: the names of the Aethyrs didn't change, and I CP> don't think CP> (maybe I'd better check) any of the names of the so-called CP> Tablet of CP> Spirit did either. I've never really been attracted to the CP> elemental CP> workings (other than the Spirit names) for some reason. (Maybe CP> the CP> confusion has added to that? Dunno.) Thanks, just what I needed to hear. I guess I'll go ahead with the tablets I have now and not worry too much about it. Guess between your comments and Lon's ESM, I'll have enough to get my feet wet. If I run into problems, I'll holler! CP> BTW, I love your collection of ASCII art... I've been CP> capturing 'em. Thanks! I sometimes wonder if they're too silly, but I really like em.
