1. Abrahadabra—the Reward of Ra-HoorKhuit. We have already seen that Abrahadabra is the glyph of the blending of the 5 and the 6, the Rose and the Cross. So also the Great Work, the equilibration of the 5 and the 6, is shown in this God; fivefold as a Warrior Horus, sixfold as the solar Ra. Khuit is a name of Khem the Ram-Phallus-two-plume god Amon; so that the whole god represents in qabalistic symbolism the Second Triad ("whom all nations of men call the first").
It is the Red descending Triangle—the sole thing visible. For Hadit and Nuit are far beyond.
Note that Ra-Hoor HB:RAHVVR = 418.

[edit]2. Suggested by a doubt arising in the mind of the prophet as to the unusual spelling. But the "I" makes a difference in the qabalistic interpretation of the name.
3. —end. This whole books seems intended to be interpreted literally. It was so taken by the scribe at the time.
Yet a mystical meaning is easy to find. Exempli gratia; vv. 4-9.
4. An Island = one of the Cakkrams or nerve-centres in the spine.
5. Fortify it! = Concentrate the mind upon it.
6. = Prevent any impressions reaching it.
7. = I will describe a new method of meditation by which
8. Ye shall easily suppress invading thoughts. {398}
9. May mystically describe this method ["e.g.", Liber HHH, Section 3].
But the course of history will determine the sense of the passage.

0. trying to split pics.
10. The stele of revealing—see illustration.
That temple; it was arranged as an octagon; its length double its breadth; entrances on all four quarters of temple; enormous mirrors covering six of the eight walls (there were no mirrors in the East and West or in the western halves of the South and North sides).
There were an altar and two obelisks in the temple; a lamp above the altar; and other furniture.
Kiblah—any point to which one turns to pray, as Mecca is the Kiblah of the Mahometan.
"It shall not fade," etc. It has not hitherto been practicable to carry out this command.
11. "Abstruction." It was thought that this meant to combine abstraction and construction, "i.e.", the preparation of a replica, which was done.
Of course the original is in "locked glass."
12-15. This, ill-understood at the time, is now too terribly clear. The 15th verse, apparently an impossible sequel, has justified itself.
16. Courage and modesty of thought are necessary to the study of this book. Alas! we know so very little of the meaning.
17. The infinite unity is our refuge, since if our consciousness be in that unity, we shall care nothing for the friction of its component parts. And our light is the inmost point of illuminated consciousness.
And the great Red Triangle is as a shield, and its rays are far-darting arrows!
18. An end to the humanitarian mawkishness which is destroying the human race by the deliberate artificial protection of the unfit.
19. 718 is υπομονη, the abstract noun equivalent to Perdurabo. (Sun in 3 Degree Cancer, An. VII.)
20. In answer to some mental "Why" of the prophet the God gives this sneering answer. Yet perhaps therein is contained some key to enable me one day to unlock the secret of verse 19, at present (Sun in 20 Degree Virgo, An. V.) obscure. [Now (Sun in Libra, An VII.) clear.]
21. This was remarkably fulfilled.
