Every human being has two
distinct personas residing within,
the demonic and the divine.
The LHP Practitioner has free access
to both.
When he/she is able to harmonize them one
becomes the perfect being,
hence god in their own right.
The practitioner who is able to control
matter
and harmonize it with spirit is the
true Adept.
For these idividuals matter
is of no existence.
It is but 'Maya',
or illusion.
Therefor they will respect the
physical body as a useful vessel for experience and exploration of the surrounding world and a gateway to one's
own higher intelligence.
Thus the LHP practitioner seeks to
find harmony within,
whilst constantly
searching for methods to employ
the
creative force of the universe.
Magick is a science,
with a sound foundation of explanable
thought.
The ebb and flow of the tides are
one example commonly
identified with the existence of Man,
and all things living.
The LHP practitioner adheres to the
traditional observance of the tides during all magickal workings.
The Laws of gravity, cohesion, adhesion,
polarity, refraction,
defraction, and all seasonal changes
are among the natural phenonmena respected by those of
such knowledge.
This ideal dates back to the
times of Aristotle and was observed even by such literary geniuses as
William Shakespeare.
As written in 'Julius Ceasar',
"There are tides in the affairs of
man,
which taken at it's flow, leads on
to fortune".
The universality of Magickal thought
and practice forms a large section of Man's cultural and
spiritual heritage.
For many centuries Magick has been
left to dwell in the dark corner's of the mind,
labeled as the rantings of superstition
and
lesser intelligence.
Now we experience an increased awareness
of the collective mind of the human race and the conscious attempt on the part of Mankind to unite and
identify with the powers of Nature.
Leaving it inevitable that we shall
eventually return to the Magickal traditions of the ancients.
The reason Magick has survived more
than
50,000 years
and is slowly overpowering religion,
is that of the two,
Magick is the more powerful
and instinctual phenomena.
Religion is but an offshoot of the
Magickal persona,
as it has no roots of it's own.
Religion teaches the need to have
faith in the power of a god,
Magick however dictates to have faith
in the
power within.
In all matters regarding this statement,
when Man/Woman delves into the instinctual
behaviour patterns
instilled within,
he/she is in fact saying,
"I can and I will".
Confronted with these undeniable truths,
it is our mission to break down the
taboos that have kept Magick a misunderstood human instinct that has been overshadowed by
fear and ignorance
for far too long.
In short we shall strive to resurrect
our heritage,
tearing down the walls of ignorance
and falsehoods,
to unveil the true quality of
the human existence that elevates man to the
spheres of god.
