	INTRODUCTION TO THELEMA, BY THE U.S. GRAND LODGE OF THE ORDO TEMPLI ORIENTIS
		Thelemites are expected to interpret the book for themselves, based on Crowley's commentaries and other writings; but are enjoined from promoting their personal interpretations to others.
		Not every Thelemite utilizes all the practices available, there is considerable room for each individual practitioner to choose practices which are suitable to his or her individual needs.
		Thelemites often take mystic names or "magical mottoes" for themselves as a sign of commitment; and customarily greet each other with the phrase, "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law"; to which the customary response is, "Love is the law, love under will".

		Such a person would be living in a 'Do # what thou wilt _is_ the whole of the Law' situation; and the Will being # wholly integrated with the lower vehicles, there is no longer any need # to posit it as an object of aspiration.
		Thelemites are not part of a culture per se and identification as a Thelemite is more likely an indication of fraud than of the reality.
		in identifying the Thelemite as special and refraining from such an identification, there is a built-in arrogance-diffuser.

		A: One of the signs of a Thelemite is that they will tend to start each letter or meeting with the salutation "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law", and end with "Love is the law, love under will." This is cumbersoe, to say the least.
		A: A "Thelemite" is a subscriber to the doctrine of Thelema.
		Most Thelemites (but not all) are students of the works of Aleister Crowley.

		There are those among the Initiated Thelemites who hold that uninitiated persons cannot properly call themselves Thelemites, but rather that they aspire to be worthy of the title, and that the term Thelemic Aspirant is a more accurate title.
		Thelemites, by convention, greet each other with salutations which reflect their acceptance of The Law.
		One of the clearest signs I have come to recognize that someone is falsely justifying their action as being in accord with their True Will is when they try to use that argument to other people in defense of their actions.

		For there are therein Three Grades, the Hermit and the Lover and the man of Earth." In the Vision and the Voice, in the 13th Aire, is written "The man of earth is the adherent.
		This could imply that one's freedom to advance, as a Thelemite, as a human being, is inalienable.
		That most do not choose to exercise this freedom should not therefore be taken as an excuse to oppress them, nor should the fact that very few now manage to advance all the way necessarily be taken as the inevitable and eternal condition of humankind.

	Introduction to Thelema
		According to most Thelemites, every human being has his/her own True Will, which is the purpose of their being.
		When it comes to “organised Thelemites”, they should report to their tutors, who should then be able to guide the seeker along.
		During these three days, the writing (or as Thelemites often say, receiving) the Book of the Law is observed and the book read a chapter a day.

	Preliminary Remarks on the Mental illness of G.M. Kelly (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		He's been passing himself off as a Thelemite for years and continues with all his foolish delusions that he has attained initiations.
		This is no wonder, as he's lied and slandered so many Thelemites that everyone sincerely on the true Path of Initiation finds him too disgusting and demonic to even carry on a brief conversation with.
		I look forward to some intelligent Thelemite who is well versed with the texts of clinical psychologists to do a complete study of his insanity and present it for study for the entire Thelemic Community.

		Thelemic bodies and individual Thelemites can and should develop informative sites to make Thelema easy to find once the seeker knows what he or she is looking for.
		Henceforth Smith and the Thelemites concentrated their attention on Crowley as the fons et origo of all wisdom; if one was working with Crowley, one certainly would not have time for other teachers.
		He was still a Thelemite, but hardly in touch with any of the remaining initiates of the O.T.O. in California, and still not aware that Karl Germer had been dead for over three years already.

	Aleister Crowley
		The notion of absolute freedom for an individual to follow his or her True Will is a cherished one among Thelemites.
		This philosophy also recognizes that the main task of an individual setting out on the path of Thelema is to first discover his or her True Will, giving methods of self-exploration such as magick great importance.
		Of course, with the emphasis on freedom and individuality inherent in Thelema, the beliefs of any given Thelemite are likely to differ from those of any other.

	Mohammad is a false prophet
		It is of great importance for any Thelemite or any secular Muslim to know what kind of society he or she will live in if fundamentalist Muslims rule.
		The Taliban, Afghanistan's ruling Islamic movement is an example of this extremist militant faith, which is based on a literal interpretation of the Koran, and it shows in their way of life.
		Serious students of Aleister Crowley and Thelemites who have accepted the Book of the Law the true guide of life, (as I have) should have a copy of this article.

		True, if someone INSISTS upon preventing a Thelemite from doing his or her Will, stands in the Way and refuses to budge, it may be necessary to run over or through that obstacle like a tank.
		A GENUINE Thelemite cannot help him- or herself and MUST feel compassion for all since the Thelemite REAL-izes that "every number is infinite: there is no difference" (CCXX I.4), that we are all, in fact, closer than brothers and sisters.
		Anyone who objects to the Law of Thelema, "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law", must either be objecting out of ignorance and arrogance or because he or she is religiously intolerant and truly "satanic", even if calling him- or herself a Wiccan or Christian.

		Thelemites are those who act according to their intepretation of "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law" and accept the Book of the Law, the primary Holy Book received by Aleister Crowley, as their sacred law.
		Some do not consider us, in the strictest sense of term, a 'secret society', given our public and legal existence; however, the names and information pertaining to O.T.O. members are confidential within the Order.
		Individually, there is no one absolute with regards to what Thelemites practice in terms of personal rituals; however, in the O.T.O., we perform the intiations of our Order, the Gnostic Mass, other rituals to commemorate seasonal holidays, and special events.

	A Personal Account of Sexual Harassment within a so-called “Thelemic” Order
		It is a hard for a female Thelemite to admit to this, but there is nothing very impressive about the diaries of some of Crowley’s “Scarlet Women.” I have found, through the diaries that I have read, that they were very shallow, containing mostly accounts of what A.C. did during a certain period of time.
		Nevertheless, there are indeed several female Thelemites who have made a contribution to Thelema.
		Jane Wolfe is definitely one very important example, a woman who was not “feminine” looking enough to fit within the standards of a Lodge “goddess.” However, there aren’t enough documents circulating that speak of her experience as a female Thelemite that could assist many of us females who are in the Path.

	Solemnus' Thelema Page
		Because this can be a wordy mouthful, most Thelemites simply say "Ninety-Three!" in place of each of these salutations, reflecting the Greek gematriaic valuations of the words Thelema and Agape.
		Many Thelemites use a shorthand of "93" for the opening line and "93, 93/93" for the closing line.
		I don't do this in writing because I feel it cheapens the meaning of these phrases which summarize a philosophy dear to my heart, but I have succumbed to the shorthand convention with my vocal greetings.

		In broadest terms a Thelemite, like all sincere spiritual seekers, is striving to discover the meaning to his or her own existence (in astronomical terms what is our true orbit or trajectory in life).
		The terms Thelema and Thelemite are usually used in reference to the work of Aleister Crowley, who in the first half of the twentieth century was a zealous proponent of discovering ones Will and then doing it.
		Obviously anyone in the world has discovered their Will and is proceeding to execute it is technically a Thelemite no matter what their belief system may be – even if they’ve never heard of Aleister Crowley or the word Thelema.

		But they are enough for me to profess that I am not, at this time, a Thelemite.
		I am, however, more of a Thelemite than I am a Wiccan or Christian, though the difference between "like" and "is" is as great as the difference between dead and almost dead, which is to say - a great deal indeed.

		However, I am always amazed and find it very strange that Thelemites of all people, who supposedly accept diversity on all planes, will yell the loudest when people believe differently than themselves.
		Simply discussing certain subjects, like we're doing on this web site, will bring pseudo-authorities out of the wood work like roaches to throw their two-cents around as to what the Order is 'really' all about.

		A Thelemite per Rabelais is someone whose sources of virtue are within themselves; he deliberately inverted the Christian idea that wisdom came from external sources in the Bible and the Church.
		If someone is a BotL-thumper then they may be relying excessively on an external source of received wisdom rather than on their own internal sources.
		Or perhaps a better question is, what is it that you are looking for in Thelema if not initiation as AC defined it, according to the curriculum that he devised for individual attainment (i.e.

		I am a Thelemite with an initiated perspective, and so when I read in Liber Aleph that woman has no soul, attaineth not in magick, and is not worthy of the truth, it's very easy for me to call it as I see it (complete bullshit...hardly worthy of comment) and move along.

	- The Thelemic Salutations by Bill Heidrick
		For a Thelemite in O.T.O., it's not valid to let things take care of themselves and "Do as thou jolly well might," about "The Book of the Law." For some Thelemites, this is not a major concern.
		Periodically, some test must be made to separate the subhuman sluggard from the Thelemite who doesn't do things the way the rest do.
		At some time or another, every Thelemite has to face the familiar question: "If you are so smart, why ain't you rich?" If such a question or its kindred troubles you, take a little time to meditate on the Thelemic salutations.

		It simply means being a Thelemite (which, to me, simply means that I take Joy in doing my Will) 24 hours a day, each & every day of my life --not just when I am in a ritual Circle, or surrounded by other conscious Thelemites.
		There is a vast difference between an Order which urposfully takes on those new to the path & Orders (such as our own) who initiate only those who have studied & practiced on their own & who are ready for magickal community whose circle is cast at the Gateway of Daäth.
		As a self-directed Thelemite, I set my own course curriculum for un-folding my Will, & I assume others are willing-&-able to do likewise.
