Well done

I guess you didn't include The Comment at the end ...
But you know what immediately struck me ... the similarity in structure and texture between Liber Legis and the Koran. Do all of these texts which are narrated by spiritual entities have this kind of linguistic look and feel ?

How difficult would it be to make a Concordance of the Koran ?
My copy of the Koran is 537 pages long with small type. The Koran is organized differently than the Bible. There may already be a concordance such as uri http://www.quranbrowser.com/ or others google Koran concordance . Why don't you explain it's organization ? It seems to be in topics.

The Koran seems in this case to be organized by topic here. It is the product of an oral tradition. When the prophet talked about something others would pass it along as stories which eventually got to be the Koran. Contrast this with the chronology of the life of Jesus approach of the New Testament & the epistles & testaments of the apostles.
Personally i'm not into the study of religious texts. I agree with Simon Rushdie that they should be studied as historical texts in the context of whence they came. Takes a real scolar to do that. Me thinks people who follow these texts as if they were a message addressed to their real life, are barking up the wrong tree. They would do better if they just used Bob Dylan's poetry ... or better still if they wrote their own.

Liber Legis was dictated to AC by a demon named Aiwaz while he was stoned on Peyote.
The Book of the Law is the central sacred text of Thelema, written (or received) by Aleister Crowley in Cairo, Egypt in the year 1904. It contains three chapters, each of which was written down in one hour, beginning at noon, on April 8th, 9th, and 10th. Crowley claims that the author was an entity named Aiwass, whom he later referred to as his personal Holy Guardian Angel (or "Secret Self"). Biographer Lawrence Sutin quotes private diaries that fit this story, and writes that "if ever Crowley uttered the truth of his relation to the Book," his public account accurately describes what he remembered on this point.[1] The teachings within this small book are expressed as the Law of Thelema, usually encapsulated by these two phrases:
- "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law" (AL I:40) and
- "Love is the law, love under will" (AL I:57)
Its full title is Liber AL vel Legis, sub figura CCXX, The Book of the Law, as delivered by XCIII=418 to DCLXVI. [2] It is often abbreviated as Liber Legis, Liber AL, or even just AL.

There are many copies of LL in the archives. One of them is the copy he took with him on the Rock at Cephalu.




Anyway this discussion needs to move off the topic of the Concordance of Liber Legis.
